This is taking things a bit too far.

Providing mirrors/extra links to peoples work should be actively supported & rewarded. SH3 users who take the extra time to upload someone else's work (in it's original format) to preserve it's existance are doing the community and creator an excellent service.

We have lost too many good mods because the creator is not longer active and his links have died. Did Terrapin ask everyone for permission. Nope, cos he was providing a service to keep all the mods alive.

Let's not blur the line between hosting others work and stealing others work. Remember, they're still the creators files and with more mirrors, more people will be able to use your work.

IMHO, this type of occurance benefits the community/creator. Carry on.
