I'm sure by now you have seen them in every store around SL, clubs, they are everywhere. Its simply a greeter script that displays peoples profile pictures. I explained that to that person but I guess they were having a bad day and needed to yell at someone-so be it. And Zeeblebob? I do not have a huge ego , if you see me taking offense to your pro-content theft sign as having an ego then you have mental issues. Everyone who saw that sign took offense to it, hence the angry mob that formed outside your shop. Jokes are one thing but encouraging people to steal is a slap in the face to all the hard working content creators out there. About the script that shows your profile images?

She picked a fight with the wrong person and she can't admit that because her ego is so huge...

When my friend called her to talk about it, Akasha refused to meet with her and all she would say was 'it's a script' and 'lol' and 'lmao' over and over again. Then proceeds to call her partner into the conversation - presumably because she has the ability to put two sentences together, who knows - who then also refuses to acknowledge that it's an invasion of my friend's (anyones for that matter) privacy. At no time did my friend give consent to Akasha or anyone to take textures from her and use them for her own purposes. So Kisten's answers to my friend's queries amounted to 'they're just pixels', they're on a database and anyone can copy anything anytime, this game is supposed to be fun and you (my friend) shouldn't be in SL, and won't this be great material for a blog. That was their position on stealing a texture from my friend and using it for their own amusement. Also a copyright infringement ladies. I urged my friend to file a DMCA, but she wouldn't, said they were just kids and that maybe they'd learn something someday from the experience. Well a couple of months have gone by and guess what, they've learned it's not fun to have people stealing from you. It's not a party when someone takes something from you and uses it without your consent. But how much do you want to bet me she's still running that script in her store? Still stealing textures from people, invading their privacy, and when someone who doesn't think everything is a party, questions them about it, says it's just fun - it's just pixels, anybody can copy anything they want off the servers. And don't think for one minute that I can't get the chat logs to prove it. Along with all the choice words hurled at my friend. Think about it Akasha. Don't get angry about this post. Just think for one minute about the possibility there was some validity to my friend's concerns.
