MisterSouthern reacted to zach016 in Still waiting...Man, this thread is a dumpster fire full of ridiculousness.
Having read through the majority of the comments, I have yet to see a single reasonable request of the staff of the website. I have no idea how people expect their work to be made public on any website, and also be protected from theft, etc. You're trying to impose an impossible task upon the staff, of which the only solutions are to not post the content, or to only allow a select list of pre-screened people to download the item (Which is a nonsensical solution for a website of this nature).
The staff hosting the content on your behalf, only makes them responsible in so far as whether the content breaches their own rules, or applicable laws. That's like expecting walmart to prevent people from renting the movies purchased at their store to other people, or from people taking their item purchased on sale from Walmart, and trying to return it for full price at Zellars. The site is a point of distribution, not a content management system on your behalf.
The effort required to circumvent additional security measures, such as requiring a membership, is so laughingly small compared to the effort to rip models/extract source code/etc., that it would only actually serve to hamper legitimate users. I also have no idea what the expectation of people is if they were to actually move to a different site to publicly release their model's. Public by nature means they will be accessible to the very people you wish to be protected from, as they are an unfortunate part of said public.
I also find it funny that content creators here are using the excuse "well, have you ever had your content stolen?", as if that provides any special perspective on the situation. Im in the opposite boat, in that I can't release any of my created content (only skins), because each one borrow's from someone else's work in some capacity, and i respect the author's wishes of the borrowed content. I don't need my content to be stolen, to have the perspective that having content stolen sucks.
Even banning a person becomes an iffy proposition, as different people can have the same username for different applications. Evidence only goes so far to say that a person named billy-joe-bob on discord (As an example) ripped the files, when the same billy-joe-bob on here could be from an entirely different country.
As to the way staff treated "the community", I didn't see the original thread, however this thread really isn't making me sympathize, as reasonableness is quite clearly not a requirement for entry.

MisterSouthern reacted to Ragnrok in Still waiting...Honestly, I dont know what happened, and I dont really care. You people are the undisputed queens of drama. The vast majority are completely incapable of simply communicating their issues in a civilized, intelligent manner, and certainly incapable of having any patience at all with a staff that does this entirely in their free time. I get people are upset over something, but going on a rant and attacking staff is simply not the answer. Grow up and have some patience.

MisterSouthern reacted to t0y in Still waiting...I mean, again, maybe my word doesn't mean anything but that just didn't happen lol. Maybe ask the mods or something for a log, that just never happened. Solid argument tho.
I complained about the LSPDFR staff because of things that were in their control, and about the community in general. Honestly I understand all of your problems I hate ripping and all that shit, I get it man, and you're all saying "do more to protect the members" do WHAT? Ban them? Write a strongly worded thread against it?? I dont know what you want because none of those would work and you know that.
-
MisterSouthern reacted to t0y in Still waiting...Who... are you? That was literally the worst response I've ever gotten in a debate on the internet. I have never in my 3 years of being on FR removed all my stuff. I've never in my 3 years of being on FR removed stuff because parts were stolen. I've never complained about stolen parts... What the fuck are u talking about? lmao
What? So you're comparing me quitting because of the lack of LSPDFR updates, and lack of interest to a group of modders collectively boycotting the plugin they mod for because the staff wont do something they have no control over?
-
MisterSouthern reacted to t0y in Still waiting...Here I thought I'd get a well thought out argument or response but no... Just some irrelevant point about an award I got like a year ago or something. Good point though thanks!
-
MisterSouthern reacted to t0y in Still waiting...Hey guys sorry to interrupt!
I fully understand how bad it is to get your mods stolen, ripped, leaked, whatever it may be, and from the perspective of a modder I understand all the outrage with the ripping that has been going on in both FR and the modding community in general.
However, what actually do you think the FR staff can do about this? Honestly, tell me what you think they can do to stop all ripping in the FR community. There is no answer, and the answer certainly isn't moving all your mods to a different website... That's just... fucking stupid. You still mod for the LSPDFR mod, and every one of you started with FR so let's not forget that, and maybe try to work together with the staff to try and stop it? Idfk that's just what im thinking as a concerned third party!

MisterSouthern reacted to JJ9856 in Sentinel's ShowroomSorry, I didn't mean on the release date. With the features included in 0.4 like AOP and the inclusion of EUP to backup peds, accurately detailed cars are going to compliment it greatly.

MisterSouthern reacted to Not AJ in Why my stuff is goneLong live another legend , Maurice97. 😭 Smh. I'm sorry you had to experience that. Why would the admin even do that? I find that to be wrong and disrespectful. Only admins who I've once appreciated and always will is during the days of 2013, my man. I joined at around the same time as you.

MisterSouthern reacted to xDZYx in Why my stuff is goneLSPDFR Community and Whoever it may Concern,
I am a member of this site since September 13,2013.In that time i shared round a bout 50 Files.Overall it should be more than 120 vehicles.It was an awesome time.I want to thank everybody who supported me in this time.A lot of people messaged me why my stuff is no longer avaible.So im gonna answer this here.You deserve it.I apologize for some missunderstanding.Im from Germany and only had school english but im gonna try my best.
There was a person (im not gonna say the name) who uploaded a part in the Developer Section.He didnt knew who was the original author was and still released it.I told him in the comments how he could dare to do such a disrespect move to the author.That comment got deleted by a Admin.So i was frustated and commented with : Nice that my comment got deleted... I got warned to stop commenting on it.But i didnt.Some people will say its your fault but i cant take this disrespect to the real author so i posted a thumbs down.That was the reason why i got a warning point.Im not banned or something but i decided to hide my files from there.Some of you are moddeling on your own and you may got a feeling in what a bad state the Modding community is.There is a huge disrespect on the work of others.I understand that admins are also people and cant remove everything within a sec.But however i dont want to attack any admins.Only the person who uploaded it.But for doing that i put my stuff down.Some of you may think thats completly overreacted.Maybe it is.But i dont want to be a part of an Toxic community anymore.Stuff like this is the reason why people leave.I also did it to show that enough is enough.Respect others work.I know Im not god and cant change the world.But i dont want to take that.This site doesnt deserved this.Alot of people put so much love in creating this site.I want to thank them.Maybe we can get back to what this site should be.A place where we can do what we all love.Modding and playing this Video Game.Help each other if there are problems.I know that still happens.But there is more toxic stuff around than good.This is maybe a part of this community.But if so,i dont want to be a member of that.Most of us are all adults.Lets keep it like this.I dont want to say that i never was chlidish.But most people are.So,like i said you deserved a statement.There it is.I hope that something changes and i can Unhide my files again.Im Still gonna post some ingame pictures.If you want to get some more informations about stuff i do at the moment or also from others.Join my Discord.
-link removed- .Just to make it clear to the Admins.I dont try to make ad for my server for *stealing* members.Its only for people who still want to be in contact with me.Again thank you ALL for this journey-I hope that this isnt the end.If you are still interested in my stuff hit me up on discord.Check my profile for Infos
Dont go and offend anyone.
Cheers
