Just wanted to pop in here and let everyone know, that ShareCG is NOT getting a bad rep. We decided to cap some of the mass uploading going on over at Rendo because of the enormous amount coming in from a few freebie providers..
And yes, we were beginning to see some duplicate items being uploaded there that had already been previously approved..some were honest accidents, but some were not. Unfortunately the mass uploaders we have caught abusing the system, did in fact host their items here at SCG. SCG is not to blame for this.
If we all work together on this, hopefully we can get this abuse to stop, and we can all enjoy sharing our creations once again :)
The discussions on limits have been in the works for quite awhile. ShareCG has responded to the problems of abuse, and Renderosity is doing the same. We're going to see how the system we have in place will work out {3 uploads per 24 hrs, 1 approval per provider, per 24 hrs}
If it doesn't work they way we think it will, we'll think of doing something else. ;)
