I got an email from DA yesterday asking me what I thought of their support. That's because the last time I sent an email to them complaining about the ripper. I said it was satisfactory then asked them how it was possible the ripper was allowed back to do it again. I'm still waiting on an answer.

Well, we're still fighting the fight against the ripped malware skins getting uploaded to the rainmeter gallery. Everyday there's a new one, sometimes 4-5! Testing, reporting, reporting, reporting, reporting!!! Some get taken down, some don't, report it again!

The 'NEW' malware reporting tool is finally up and I'm sure I'll get the chance to use it tonite. I've been told that they are discussing the possibility of implementing an 'antivirus scanner for uploads'.

UPDATE - sure enough, another infected skin, so I reported it and the other 12 infected skins that are still in the Rainmeter Gallery. Over 1300 downloads! So, we'll see if this new 'tool' makes it any faster getting them removed.

I'm still waiting on an answer.

He's been taken down once due to I.D. and Jafo's efforts. 

He's   b-a-a-a-c-k   thanks to lax/nonexistent dA Moderation.

It's an unfortunate state of affairs, but if your work appears anywhere, it can be stolen. Not even charging for it, nor 'keys', etc. can protect it. Same as with pretty much anything.

He had created a new account.  This is the second time in 2 weeks he's been banned from Devart and had 'his stuff' removed.

My 'link' to get results gets results....

No....

I think you'll find the automatic response doesn't allow for the situation where-by the person is banned/removed by Admin and the works only appear to have been deleted by someone other than the Policy Violation team.

 

Meanwhile....

He's back yet again....and yet again I am on his case.
