In recent weeks Reallusion has for the very first time had to deal with serious accusations of plagiarism and/or copyright infringement on this forum. Now as you may have noticed it did take us a little while to investigate these claims, then communicate with the parties involved and finally come to a decision. The reason it took some time was firstly because this was completely new territory for us and secondly because this matter had to be treated fairly and responsibly to all the parties involved. The result of these investigations has concluded that an individual from Clones2Go was guilty of plagiarism and/or copyright infringement. For this reason, the individual in question has had their Reallusion CCD Developer status removed and all content from this source has been removed from the Content Store. It should be remembered however that Clones2Go was not just one individual and there are many totally innocent people who have been caught up in this sad affair due to their links to Clones2Go. We ask for your understanding on this matter. As far as we are concerned, the matter is now closed and the person responsible has been correctly punished according to our new CCD Developer rules. With regards to Clones2Go themselves, we have been informed that they have now ceased trading and will no longer be active in the community. For this reason all Clones2Go promotional threads on this forum will also now be removed. If you have made a purchase from Clones2Go that has been confirmed as being plagiarized content, your first step is to request reimbursement from Clones2Go themselves. The developer will be responsible for refunding the price of any plagiarized content to the consumer. If you need more information on this or of you have not received satisfaction from the developer, please contact Reallusion Customer Support. We fully appreciate that this matter has led to many passionate posts from the community but I do hope we can now bring this unfortunate event to an end and move on. Thank You. Please Note: These sad events have now led to Reallusion introducing new regulations for developers which must be abided by. If you are a Developer please see the link HERE for more information on these changes to the CCD Agreement.

this makes me sad to read, the guys at clones2go are very nice people and very supportive of members in the forum. It's unfortunate that a possible misunderstanding shut them down. i don't endorse plagiarism, but people do make mistakes. my respects to them all the same, sorry to see it end.

Well Said sw00000p, She was there for me too when I began my iclone life as a noob, im still a noob but thats another thread. These guys have worked too hard to have a bad name from an unfortunate incident. I am personally not going to let that happen if my voice counts for anything. Truth is they looked out for us.

sw00000p (6/24/2010)
My Dear Lady: ShyGirl, My heart goes out to you. You were the "Only" one that helped me when I first started using iclone. I'm talking about the type of help that all "Newbies" need in the beginning! When "ALL" others told me, "Your Expected to know how to do that!" You went above and beyond to get me over that first hurdle of iClone Clarity! THANK YOU! As time has passed, I've only seen "That Type of Help" shared by: Mike A. and AKN! Today "That Type of Help" is offered for a Price. "Join A Class" and "Pay more money! ShyGirl, you truly set the standard for "Helping Others" I miss you! sw00000p To avoid any misunderstanding, Shygirl's absence from the forum right now is of her own choosing as she wishes to take a break. However she is still very much active as a CCD Developer and is free to return to the forum whenever she feels ready.

"Join A Class" and "Pay more money!Dramatic, but inaccurate. I have answered a good deal of questions on this forum and still do if I think I can help out and so have many others. This kind of attitude makes me wonder, why bother?

zuijen, it matters not that the world notices if you are a nice person, the fact is you were there for us too, at least for me , especially when my machine was crippled. the point of the matter is the guys at clones2go worked hard to help the members of this forum, and for the mistake of one person they should not all have bad reps. i don't think thats cool. this is not defying reallusion or any other members, this is about appreciating their good works and acknowledging the good they have done for the community.

Absolutely, so long as we're not espousing to support the individual himself who has brought this all about. Let's make sure our support is directed at the appropriate parties, chiefly Shygirl and Cricky and the rest of the innocent guest creators.

As I understand it they offer training for a price but offer help free. As for Cricky and Shygirl I think there were many more posts supporting them than having a go at them (rightfully so).

Hi Swoooop There is a difference from giving help on one aspect of Iclone without charge , i.e How do I do this ? to giving a training session covering wider aspects of Iclone . Do you know what I mean ? I think I must have miss read a post as regards Shygirl & Cricky Sorry..

Hi Swooop My point was that the people asking a fee for a class also help people on issues for free ... I just do not see the point in praising one group for help while been detrimental to another group ... This issue did a pretty good job of dividing this community first time around ....
