Some ass hole has decided to download my hornet, from modacity where I posted a download link. Because people needed it for a comp. Well, I trust modacity members not to abuse my trust, be obviously kid from here visits there and decided to set some people up.

If you have not noticed, they have uploaded it here. Dennis seems to be ignoring my PM's.


Somehow, it seems people don't seem to understand some simple basics of a public forum. Take good ole' hunter over here, who apparently failed to learn from Inferno's mistake with Snowtrap. The #1 rule to keeping something you want to be private is NOT TO POST IT ON A PUBLIC FORUM. The minute you do that, you've released your work. It's not the fault of another forum or even this forum if it gets uploaded. Anyone can view the download link, and anyone can download, and anyone can do what they want with it. It's not Dennis's responsibility to remove a file from his site, because you posted it publicly, not should he even have to be bothered by a stupid mistake on your part.

I thought people would learn from Inferno's mistake to not post private files on a public forum, but Hunter, this is only your fault. You failed to learn from infernos mistake, and frankly, that just makes you an idiot to do the exact same thing.

If anyone else has a problem with a similar situation, shame on you, you have 2 examples now from Hunter and Inferno as well as this post as a warning.

Do you really have to state the obvious?

Hunter should have modeled a penis onto the hornet. Then Dennis wouldn't have uploaded it.

Sucks it was put up there, but like everyone has said its a public forum, anyone can view it.

Dennis is a stubborn guy, he wont remove it at all.

Everything states the obvious here. I think we all know what happens when you release something that everyone can view.

This didn't require a thread. You don't need to point out stupid, when what you're pointing out is pretty much common-sense to everyone else.

Thats what I said when Inferno did it.

And actually, since it has happened once, and then it happened AGAIN, I think it WAS necessary frain.

the best part about people being dumb on the internet isn't watching them or posting threads about it, it's posting to say those threads are bad and pretending the report button doesn't exist


(may i refer to the thread title to reinforce the point i am trying to get across here)
