XNALara models redistribution
Hey guys, I don't know if you are aware... but there is a site where someone keeps reuploading all the ports and meshmods from DA http://dilong-xnagmod.blogspot.it/
I don't think this person asked for permission before reposting, even because, from what I've seen, he also reuploaded the models instead of linking the original sharing sites. I checked my models posted and there is any credit, nor original link. I suppose I have to start writing "by Runa/SumireHaikuXNA" as well :\ even if we don't own this stuff in any way, the porting process is quite long and hard for most of the models. Seeing them reposted without asking is not respectful at all, even if I'm not surprised.

Yeah that guy/s been doing since last year heck they're even using our preview pictures. Oh well that's the internet for you, lazy selling everywhere.
Stop! Waitaminute! Fill mah cup with some liquor in it!
Re: XNALara models redistribution
Yes, that is why I'm not surprised. I'm kinda used to see artworks reposted and even models... it's just pretty sad that they keep doing it. I just wanted to inform you guys in case you didn't know. I noticed that the other day and today someone posted the link under one of Armacham's deviations saying: "lots of cool models here". Heh yeah... they are cool because he took them from all of us

Re: XNALara models redistribution
He/She has some of my meshmods there also, there's no credit and he hasn't asked me, it's very rude, the least he could do is to have a link to my deviantart page
Re: XNALara models redistribution
I understand that people want to create a unique big archive with XNALara models, but considering that DA is full of them (eg Sticklove, XNALara Customized, etc) I don't actually see the sense. Plus, it would be nice to ask first before reposting and also putting some proper credit and keep the original download link.
The only reason why I'm not stopping with this hobby is because I like it way too much and I know the risks when I post something. However, it is indeed rude and also disrespectful. Internet is crap lol.

Re: XNALara models redistribution
^ That's actually not a bad idea. Then link back to a thread from either the dA page or the posting here to the password. I know it's lame but it makes it more difficult for these peeps to re up models.
Other than that, nothing we can really do or complain about. As Josh said this is the Internet and we don't own the assets to begin with.

Re: XNALara models redistribution
Unless somebody out there has so much time on their hands to rezip up the models without a password.
Re: XNALara models redistribution
Yes, that is why I didn't even bother to register and leave a comment. I'm tired and he reposted like 100000 models already.
As for the password, yeah it might be an idea... but we would need to post it privately or to give it via pm all the time @_@
