I'm new to sharecg, and only created my account about a week ago. I knew there would be no payouts, before I decided to join.
I selected sharecg for two reasons:
1)A lot of free content that I wanted was stored on sharecg
2)It would be easy to link my file to sharecg from other forums.
The main purpose of this post seemed to be:
1)Announce a policy change (no more payouts).
2)Announce the intent to resume payouts when a solution is found.
3)Give members of the sharecg community the opportunity to help resolve the problem so that payouts can resume.
A new set of policies can help:
1)Anyone found guilty of the violations that created this problem would be permanently banned.This would include stealing other people’s work, using bots to artificially increase numbers, misleading people to their link to their content, etc…
2)Pay by download, rather than by view.Many download sites require a confirmation code to download a file.After viewing a graphic file, the user has to type the characters in a box.
