Chinese site

[Shebeth]

I was surfing on some chinese forum, and i am asking myself, what is the point to have

-Virtual golds ()

-Hidden links which force you to add a random response

-Shitload of password

I never see that on english or french forum (yes i am), and i really dont understand the goal. Somebody knows WHY ?

Should be in the offtopic section as it is relevent to more then just Oblivion.

1. To make RL money, as to why I have no idea. Greed most likely.

2. To get members.

3. To just be morons or stop people out of China from using it.

I guess I am the only one who won't do these things on these Chinese forum.

Actually I am trying to persuade people there not to ask for virtual golds.

1. It's a vicious cycle. Some member ask the others to pay virtual golds for their mods, then the others have to earn virtual golds to buy them, by "selling" mods.

2. The authors want more people to reply so they don't feel ignored or lonely.

3. Only few people will use that kind of password.

The virtual golds thing is extremely ridiculous to me.

Yesterday, a guys on Moderteam ask me to modify some clothing into VipCxj RHHS. I refused him because generally I don't accept request.

And you guys know what? That guy tried to hire me to do it with virtual golds, then I was like WTF..., why would I want to work for that valueless stuff?

They're pathetic, greedy, pieces of shit that's why. What they're doing is illegal and just pathetic. I don't ever go on moderteam or any of those shitty sites.

1. Virtual golds actually add "value" to the mods;

2. There are many (ungrateful) people who will download your work without saying a word, as if taking that for granted;

3. Make it harder to redistribute?

Perceived value. To some it turns them off' date=' others, as you say, will desire it and will do what it takes to get it.

2. There are many (ungrateful) people who will download your work without saying a word, as if taking that for granted.

Does this even need to be answered? Are these mod makers 3 years old and need constant pats on the back to keep them happy. They need to grow up and only mod because they enjoy it, not to get attention or boot licking.

3. Make it harder to redistribute?

Again, another sign of IMHO their immaturity. They are the same ones who post screen shots everywhere and then say "nope...mine...you can't have it." Sure they get attention for a little while, but eventually people come to realize they are pricks and start ignoring them (insert little boy who cried wolf story here).

It is sad to me that these people wish to taunt others and are little more than whinny brats who crave attention from others in the form of brown nosing. Perhaps some of their work is brilliant, but to me I would rather do without, than put up with them.

Now I am not in any way attacking you Saddad as I know you don't believe or agree with those statements and you were just putting down the reasons that they probably do these things.

Anyway just this old farts view, coupled with me being grumpy cause I haven't had enough coffee yet.....
