Thank you both for being at least a little mature about this. It's good to see some of you still have your heads screwed on.
What bothers me the most is the fact that the majority of people speaking all the good words about the tool haven't shared a damn thing with the community, why is that? I got what I consider to be a pretty good idea but I think it's best to avoid discussing the subject!In general I can only talk about my reasons to lock part of the trailerpack, personally I don't give a fu** about what people do to my work (as in what I created, edited etc.), hence why the pack was made as 2 files. Patch 1 which contains all models, mat files, basic textures, def files, hookup files for the flares etc. Go ahead, do whatever you feel like..!! Some of the people who made the skins are a little more concerned about their work. I worked out a solution I thought would actually benefit the community in general. We could all enjoy the trailers, at least those who like them (if you don't I can't do much about it, after all wether a mod is nice or not is a matter of personal preference).
I could have just kept it private but to me the major part of an active community is about sharing, as I once was told "Sharing is caring". I worked hard to come up with a solution so I could get some nice and crispy skins on the trailers. I never been a fan of locked mods but to me locking the skins was the best of two evils, it was either a partly locked mod or no public mod so I locked it, for the benefit of the community!
I thought I did the right thing and for that I'm truly sorry, I hope that everyone at some point will be able to forgive me.

Currently, they do, because the forum policy is set up for it. And as the game's main developers I find this highly questionable.joealker wrote:SCS does not condone piracy.
This is the biggest nonsense you have written so far.ScuL was banned from the forums for multiple forum rule breaches, such as an offensive avatar which was untrue and directed insults towards SCS, as well as insulting the moderating team.
Rule 1.2 was broken by SCS moderators. They did not respect my opinion.[1.2] Respect each other even when you have differing opinions. Insulting and personal attacks are strictly forbidden.
[1.5] Remember that SCS Software, the admins and the moderators are all users of these forums. Treat them all with the same respect as any other user.
You have no idea what you are talking about, this doesn't even come close to defamation.As for your blog post, it breaks the law on defamation in the Netherlands. Why the Netherlands? Because this site is registered there. You cannot post unsubstantiated shit about a company and expect to get away with it. I don't know what SCS are going to do about it if anything but they genuinely are entitled to sue you.
The only ones I have seen behaving inappropriately were the SCS moderators who have:ScuL and face the facts that what you did is wrong and that you have behaved inappropriately.
