    I still think we should have a private group or community group that split the membership fees on other sites so we can share here since they freely steal from here and share on their sites. Seems like a good idea to me. For a couple of dollars each we can also have access to those shares and then share them here? I have shared so many things here that I personally have paid for. I do not care about points at this moment as I have enough points to have gold for years.
    Mate FX is one of the better sites that is stealing from this site for free and charging higher membership fees. They do however have many other good things that are not share here which would be great to do the same thing to them. Take from their site and share here.

    I am speaking the truth. I have gained a lot of great things on this forum. It's because of heroes like you, Bro. Your selfless sharing is too great

    Hello mates!
    Hope everyone is doing well.
    Recently, I've discovered someone on CGPersia that I am convinced is leaching from us.
    He/She/ or Whatever goes by the name Spondita.
    I tried to ask some questions to them but I received any response.
    There are defiantly presets from me and many others from here.
    Here is but a tiny bit of what they are sharing over there.

    The Mega folder seems to be 90% LR presets
    The screenshots I posted above are a mix of everything.
    I know this stuff happens and there's no way to prevent it.
    I just wanted to give people a heads up of how fast our stuff gets out there.

    As if the material posted here, wasn't found posted elsewhere first.

    There is definitely a fair amount of that in this group. But I think where it really gets frustrating is when some of us (like myself) have paid money for courses and other content and then chose to share them here - only to find it immediately leaked.

    Yes, I get that but what you are overlooking is the fact that you are illegally making it available to others. So, it's okay for you to cheat the developer out of potential customers and profits by sharing here, but not okay for other thieves to steal from you and share elsewhere. C'mon!

    There is nothing for me to get here! It is you and those like you who think they can cheat/steal, but it's not okay for others to do the same. Once you have provided something (purchased or not) that you do not have the rights to share, you are a thief. There is no honor among thieves! Stop whining about things you have absolutely no control over. Once you post it, if it has value (and most of the time even if it doesn't) it will be posted elsewhere.

    Easy there lad.
    No one is pissing in your corn flakes.
    I was just posting some knowledge.
    That's it. I buy stuff and I take stuff just like everyone. No one is denying that.
    If you're here to be the voice of the affected than maybe you're in the wrong site.
    Just saying

    Just sayin' ... you posted some information (not "knowledge") and a whine about someone (another thief like at least 98% of us here) who is supposedly leaking items from this site. Others without doing much thinking, jump on your bandwagon. I find that ludicrous! Turnabout is fair play. CGPersia most likely has thousands of items users here would love to have. It would appear that you are a member there, so steal away lad.

    Kid listen, if you had any skin in this game I'd take you more seriously.
    But since you haven't shared a single thing here. I don't see why you're even saying anything!
    Nobody is crying
    This is the end of my discuss with you over this.
    We're all here to help one another in gathering recourses for whatever reason.
    P.s. I've been a member of cgpersia for nearly 15 years. P-V Club is much better.

    First of all child, I have shared many of items on this site in the past. And I wouldn't expect a person who started this ridiculous whine in the first place to take anyone seriously. Children (mentally or otherwise) don't like to be corrected, so it is a good thing that you bow out now and hopefully this worthless discussion ends once and for all.

    Even your red letter words of bullshit is funny. It's you attempting to cleanse your hands. That's "F"ing priceless!

    Thank you, I will. Hopefully, you will enjoy yours as well. I think we probably could be friends.
