“DMCA” process is horrible

[Pandora Wrigglesworth]

While I can sympathize with the OP about the hassle of dealing with DMCA, I disagree that LL should accept claims via e-mail. Doing it via FAX adds just the right amoung of extra hassle to help weed out people who deliberately file false DMCA claims and counter-claims.

Read the FAQ.  You can not file a DCMA claim or counter claim via E Mail. It will not get acted upon.

So you got DMCA'd, were told you were selling copybotted content, try n act all innocent. then put all the items that were dmca'd back up on the marketplace for sale....you're a real winner! *ends sarcasm*

Somethings to consider:

Requiring every one  to make every little bit of content that goes into a finished product from scratch would severly limit content. To the point of there being nearly none.

There are so many diffrent parts and skills need to make many things(textures,sculpts, sculpt maps, mesh, scripts, prims,animations, etc) people often can not do them all, assuming they wan to take the tim to reinvent the wheel.

Requiring everyone to start from scratch would also put resource creators ouf of buisness.

Buy from long time estblished source only? Ok, then how does anyone get started? What happens as old places close down and there are no no ones. no one sticks around  forever SL has a rather high turn over rate.

How do you tell the resouces you bought were legit? There doesn't seem to be any sort of refrence list, for either legit or non legit resources.

Many have no idea something they are using maybe stolen, plenty do. You may have som your self & not know it.

Its a major problem. But how do we fix it? Everyone build form scratch does not sem viable, so what is the answer?

if your going to sell in this world you NEED to do your research on the products you are buying. simple as that

the person who originally posted this KNEW they were selling stolen content. even after the fact they were TOLD they were selling stolen content. and still they choose to continue to sell those stolen goods. They need to be banned from the world.Banning doesnt do a hole lot sence they can make another account but at least it slows em down.

willingly and knowing stealing items is just wrong and shows how pathetic the person really is. & how week of character they are.

 

 

and for how to start? how do people get started if they can only buy from a long standing reputations....doesnt happen over night, a reputation needs to be built. thats what we all do when we start. no one said it was an easy road

[Hypatia Meili]

Gee guess I need to be banned too.

/me head off to make an extra account ahead of time
