Completely uncalled for.
Avon Lady deserves an apology!
Even if this guy isn't Ossi he is pulling the same childish tricks. Next thing you know deathping--- will start deleting his posts too.

Default 'Seawolves' contains Mods by ...

I think you all are bitter because someone is coming along with a bit more drive than you all to put together a package of UBI quality parts thay you all had the privilege of altering a bit. YOU DON'T OWN ANY OF IT!! I know you think you do.... but you don't. So stop crying and whining and hissing and pissing about it and grow up. All they have to do is change you precious smoke mod or whatever the hell you came up with from, mind you, UBI-copyrighted material, a little bit and its now theirs. TOUGH TAMALES! I hope they sell a million copies.

<Edit again and again and again...>

Although I have not taken part in the discussion up till now I have followed it with interest.
Things got a little bit spiced up when words like "thief" end "pirate" were exchanged for "KKK" and "Kristalnacht". I even read about boxcars going to Poland...
But Deathping really beats it. Not once, but again at the UBI-forum...
The only funny thing is that in his anger

The nickname "The Avon Lady" strongly suggests a choice for the latter.

About the only (and no doubt unintended) funny element of Deathping's posting.
As for me I hope this first posting was his death ping on this site...

Abraham said "As for me I hope this first posting was his death ping on this site..."

As for me I would hope both sites.

Everything else aside, and it seems fairly solid that much of the Seawolves content is pirated, I wouldn't buy a mod pack from this OSSI/Deathping guy because he's simply an idiot. What kind of "businessman" markets his product by harrassing his potential customers?

I think the best course of action is to just ignore the guy and he'll go away.

Probably.

At least no one here will buy, which is my only real concern.

Best anyone can do is ensure people have an opportunity to be educated on the situation.

Someone should really collect this lamers posts. It would make a funny archive of nonsense to post about whenever someone mentions X1.

That says it all, LOL All this complaining that someone is going to cash in on the efforts of the poor down trodden modders but when a suggestion to make the same thing comes up that is the reponse.? Classic!!!
Wullfman - I don't know what your problem is, but my question was just that: a simple question, with no dig or criticism intended.

My point is that while such a CD has good intentions(to raise money for modders), how many people will actually buy, when all these mods are downloadable from this and other sites and have already been acquired by many people anyway?

Sir - I meant no offence by my question, and would appreciate a reasonable response.

You have complained of a 'mob mentality' on this forum - but now you are the one being unreasonable.

i do agree with some that the modded material does not belong to YOU. It is a product of UBI and without UBI you couldnt do it, making a addon with some new features and some possible features "close" to that of mod makers doesnt quite mean their stealing. even though that is up to discussion. But i mean, im looking foward to the addon and will probably definately buy it. Counter-Strike started out a mod then became its own stand-alone product that you can buy. Though the situation is a bit different i know, i still think some should calm down. People have the same ideas sometimes, and whoever gets it out their first, well, they get credit. You modders are great, SH3 isnt SH3 without you but before u rant and rave lets wait for some more info to come out. I havent seen any previews of features on IGN etc.. So i really dont know what it contains, unless you guys have seen that, i dont think you should complain much, and if you have seen it. Please give me a preview link!!!

I've been following this (and other related) threads for the last couple of days and it seems to me that selling something that is free and without the permision/recognition of those who contributed to the creation of mods to enhance a great game is just tight-fisted and shifty online-pikeyness- I wonder, will X1 Software be coming round offering to tarmack my driveway anytime soon? :rotfl:
I don't usually visit the Ubi fora, prefering instead our very own dear subsim.com for reasons (I think you'll agree) that to most will be abundantly clear. Having read some of the slagging going on 'over there' and the improper comments directed in a personal manner towards some of our members here, it is clear that some kind of 'signature solidarity' is called for
To that end I applaud Jace11 and his discovery of a "rather fetching" banner and show my tacit support for this issue.

Jeezus some folks have looked into it (got uhh a copy) and it has at least 11 if not more mods that were taken without authorisation? What's the matter with you?

BTW deathping I know from UBI..http://forums.ubi.com/groupee/forums...233#7061020233

We don't need such trash here.
