What a fucking joke, kids trying to make some money with no knowledge of actual programming.

I also make my own content, and to see it being stolen and resold is something i do not like.

People work hard on arma 3 content and A3L should not be stealing and incorrectly using this content.

The wonder of mods is that it allows players to go into a game and experience it in an entirely new fashion. It is user created content that helps the game reach the epitome of it's potential. Many games have even formed online communities all revolving around free mods, with some of them never even receiving donations. Allowing a group of modders to take others creative works passing it off as their own without proper legal measures and/or permissions, then charge a fee to access it is a terrible behavior that SHOULDN'T be allowed, and SHOULD be stopped. This isn't only blatantly illegal actions, but also an affront to the modding community, especially the people who work hard to provide free content for others without ever receiving money in return. This racket should be shut down.

A community that does not respect the modding community, should be gotten rid of.

I used to work on textures and i would have felt bad had someone broken my license and stolen my content. Out of same empathy i ask BIS to take action to stop this kind of stealing and support the modders. We are the thing that keeps ppl playing Arma 3. We keep the fresh content coming.

this is all a good idea. People should not make personal profit in this manner. It's atrocious.
