Goodmorning Everyone,

I feel the need to spread some awareness here about being banned from grids by using Copybotviewers in OS and some tips.

As we all know copybotviewers and/or Godmode are used by the majority of the users.
And with this, I am going to play an Advocate of the devil, by explaining what happens next and why there are still people who complain by being banned from grids and really have no clue why.

First of all, one should be aware that many grids don't allow copybotviewers on their grid, so be aware you only use the original Firestormviewer or Singularity, then you'll be safe to travel and not getting the ban.

Second, ask yourself why you feel the need to use this copybotviewer in other OpenSim grids?
As we are all members of one community, which is Open Sim Community.
Don't steal from your co-members of the community, because there are so much freebies available, you can get it all everywhere.
Sounds a bit moralistic, but hey, just think about it how it will be for others who work hard on stuff to share it with you and be friendly to your co-members. You can always ask if you can have a copy, and most of them users will give it to you generously.

Ofcourse the other side is that you have highly moral standards and judge those members who use the copybotviewers in SL, but that's a discussion that I don't want to have here.
And what' a paradox it is to have a high moral standard and judge people?

And ofcourse the biggest provider and copybotter in town will shout that it aint ours, and therefor it's free to take, which I disagree. One forget that most people who share, payed for the objects or/and have worked very hard on the objects to make it all work for you member!
Exceptions are everywhere, and we have to live with that.

A tip would be; there are so many websites with free mesh like Deviant-Art, Artstation, Turbosquid, Free3D and Sketchfab, if you have the skills to convert obj files into dae, just use that.
If you need help, I am open to help you anytime.

The reason I share this info here is that I consider you guys are very friendly and highly intelligent here, and are skilled enough to have such a discussion without attacking someone personal as we can see on some other sites.

Have a great day!
