Freebie store is allowed by LL ???

Far out, man.

You are right...Buuuttt ?? Well...PPls that's buy BIB is subject to it.
If I aquired a BIB with full permission, it means that I bought rights.So, if I don't wanna win money with it..It's my right too.In other words: I Bought the right to do whatever I wannt.
And in my opinion: Wanna set up a business ? Life is not easy ! So, SL neither ! There is no such easy money in any life !



You are right !



No, I got severla BIB and I created a FreeBie Mall.But someone open a little store in front of the shopping with the same products that I give for free, but chargins something for it.Just to:

- Tell to LL later that the guy didn't sell anything because my Freebie Mall screwed his little store.
- Or simple: Atract more ppls to the Movement agains Freebies

Remember: I received a menace of several ppls against freebie.Obviouslly it's a plan to try to screw me.

paranoid much?

She like, totally needs to mellow out, man. Her bad vibes are like a total buzz kill.

you read me like a book.

Yep ! That's What I made...

I Create a new and simple rule:

You cannot put products for sale that's available on the Na Faxa Freebie Shopping.You need to ensure about it before start your rental.If you are selling one or more products that's can be found at the Na Faxa Freebie Shopping you must stop to sell immediatelly

Very Easy

Just for follow up: Before I got the decision to open a FReebie Mall I consulted several store owners with this question: "If I open a FReebie Mall u will feel that it can screw your business ?"

Common Answers:

- No, because my products cannot be found in this kind of store.If someone wanna use something original, need to buy from me.
- No, my public is different.
- No, because like the RL, ppls don't wanna see all avatars with the same clothes, hair, etc...So, later or not someone will need to spend on my store

and I received others answers too.Maybe I'm wrong, but I fell like Freebie just hurt the business of ppls that's wanna win easy money

Correct.



Not correct, man. Peace. Make love, not war. Tune in, turn on, drop out. Faaar out, man!

(My parents were hippies).

Actually, since the OP is giving the stuff away free, and the capitalist swine who wants to profit from the ignorant masses is the one giving her a hard time, it would be more likely that the OP is the "hippie" and her opponent the Establishment Businessman.

Right. I totally understand. I was talking to Manstan, because I assumed he was the person selling the items. Didn't see how somebody could get bent out of shape about "stupid hippie" if they didn't feel they were the target. Sorry for the confusion.

so your goal is to hurt people?

and people who create their own original products are not out to win easy money. have you ever created anything of quality? it takes HOURS to get it right... i still haven't got it right.

and, i have to say, i am a big-time freebie shopper. but your attitude sucks and i will NEVER frequent your sim, for freebies or anything else. what's the name of your sim again? i don't think you shamelessly plugged it enough up there. sheesh.

ha ha ha ha ha i was referring to the 'liberal' portion of my definition as the griefer. just a little American politics humor.

What a long strange trip it's been.

*lays on the ground and watches the sky swirl around her*

The movement against freebies? Let's cut to the chase here, exactly what are you trying to sell on the back of this movement against freebies? You admitted you're trying to attract traffic, so what's your angle?

I've been going through a lot of Business-in-a-Box content that was donated to NCI lately. When I first approached the the BIABs, I thought it would be easy to set all the stuff out as NCI freebies. But when I started looking into the provenance of the various items, the sitution was not so clear.

BIAB contents seems to break down into the following categories (from largest to smallest):

1) Freebies packaged for resale.
2) Items that were stolen either via fraud, permission bug, or exploit from the original creators.
3) Items made by creators who have left SL.
4) Items that due to database errors no longer have a creator credit.
5) Items that were actually created and sold for the BIAB business.

What I've ended up having to do for NCI is check the history of each BIAB item that we were donated. If at all possible, the original creators are contacted.

When the item is a repackaged existing freebie, it is goes out.

If the item was exploited from the original creator, the item is tossed--unless the creator give us permission to put it out as a freebie. This has happened in several cases. Many creators would rather see their work distributed for free than to have people make money off of stolen work.

If the item was made by a creator who has since left Second Life, the item is put out if a) we can confirm the creator is no longer here, b) the items are widely distributed as freebies currently, and c) there does not appear to be anyone with a legitimate claim on the items.

If the item no longer has a creator listed due to SL database errors, we can't check with the original creator. We can't even know who it is. However, if contacted by the original creator with evidence that the item is theirs, we will remove such items on request.

Items that were created and sold as BIABs are not put out unless the creator does not care if they are distributed as freebies (confirmed either due to documentation in the BIAB or checking with the creator).

So as you can see, the situation is more complex than "all BIABs are freebies". As a practical matter, anything that is fullperms _can_ be distributed. But the question is should you?

Ahahahah !!!! OMG !! Im laughing a lot !!!



No, however, I don't care about these ppls.Whatever if will hurt or not...Nothing against anyone.I Just don't care.



Man, obviouslly you are trying to upset me...This will be my last answer to you.Find a wall to let the wall upset.
Yes, I've prefab stores, 3 residential SIMS and my last project was a 10.000 US$ project to a RL Real Estates Company.I made a sim to this company.
The quality ?? Humm...go to check if U wanna: Search for LOPES in the Wold Map.Me and my team made this sim and this is not the only sim that we made too.
Obviouslly U will try to judge my job and will say "this is a crap"...But I will understand ya




Correct...Atract traffic...It's my goal...But, some ppls that says "We are the movement against freebie" wanna try to shutdown my Freebie store.Maybe the angle of these ppls is "Im the evil capitalist that wanna smash others ppls".And I'm not.I really just wanna atract traffic to my sim and nothing else more.

First the leader of this "movement" told me that I'm killing the soul of the artists and I'm evil...
And then..I discovered that he is a big mall owner and his tentants sell several itens that I'm give for free.


BTW - I WANNA SEND A FEEDBACK FOR ALL..PAY ATTENTION !! IT'S REALLY GOOD !

Well...this is a new sim with several rentals yet available.The tentants is concentrating near the freebie mall.It's totally unexpected to me.They are doind it because the tentants fell like the trfic generated by the freebie mall can help the others business too.
So, in others worlds: The Freebie shopping is helping the business of my tentants and I'm really happy because it was totally unexpected to me.

'nuff said.

3ring, I don't think the OP is saying she wants to hurt content creators here. I read this as saying that the SELLING of freebies is just people out to make a quick buck (like the person sending the threats) and that the OP's freebie mall only hurts the buisness of THOSE people, not the vendors in her mall. People who are out to make a buck by selling freebies are the people the OP doesn't care about.

Well, then, I think you're finding out what happens when the feeling is mutual.

3Ring quit trolling.

hamm.....sorry

What is "OP" ????

Original Poster, i.e., you.

I'm confused.

I used to be a hippy - a verry long time ago. So I guess that makes me an old ex-hippy.

From what I can remember, giving things away *FREE*ly used to be the kind of thing that a hippy would do.

So she's giving things away, yet bad mouthing the guy that wants to sell stuff by calling him a stupid hippy?

Isn't she being the hippy and he's being the money-grubbing *man*?

Or has something drastically changed in the last 40 years that I wasn't aware of?

oh. i stand corrected.

(edit)
i wouldn't. ever. but i will stop communicating on this thread, certainly.
