copyright violation

Oct 12, 2003, 2:51pm
Being fairly new to AW, and a new world owner, I am not going to get into
any kind of technical p_ssing contest over how objects, textures, and models
may be copied or shared or what have you.

I will say this however. Every time I have introduced a new avatar or model
or texture into my world - a world that is hosted by Heartfall and a world
where I rent the OP from Heartfall - I am always asked to furnish the
appropriate "readme.txt" files making sure that I have acquired proper
licensing for the items.

Also, when purchasing avatars from other avatar creators I have been asked
who runs my world. It seems the creators have had trouble with texture
sharing among some of the less than upstanding citizens who provide such
services as world and path hosting. With each and every such query the
creators have always responded with a reply similar to, "Ahhh... no need to
worry about Heartfall sharing my textures. You may load my avatar in your
world." when I have indicated that Heartfall is my world / path host.

I may be naive, but it sounds as though Lars and his company, Heartfall,
have established quite an outstanding reputation of integrity and fair
business practices. Whomever is starting all this raucus might consider
following such a fine example.
