We are here to be the opposite of that: A community for the sole purpose of free redistribution of goods that are (mostly) already stolen and resold for illegal profit.Īs of now, our main crowdsourcing focus is going to be mods for Honey Select 1. The Honey Select modding community is largely built on dishonesty, theft, and an incestuous ingroup of long-time players & modders who hoard their mods like dragons hoard gold. It's what happens afterwards that we have decided to eschew in favor of collective ownership.Īs such, I'm not expecting any sort of enforcement efforts from modders (since they, themselves, will be seen as the *real* lawbreakers much of the time). Again, we plan on paying Honey Select modders full asking price for their mods. This modding "market," if you venture to call it that, is a decidedly black and unmoderated market.īut I'm still not advocating for theft, here.
It's Patreon's fault if they facilitate a sale of stolen goods, not ours.īut also, because it is a legally recognized point-of-sale, the seller (in this example, Patreon) takes legal responsibility for sale of stolen goods.
because we'll actually be paying for them at a legitimate point-of-sale (Patreon*). It's more illegal than what we plan on doing, in fact. At best, it is intellectual property theft. It's akin to making a hip hop album with a bunch of Beatles samples, not clearing any of the samples with the IP holder, and selling the record for a profit. In fact, the ones doing illegal things, the ones perpetrating criminality are actually (most times) the modders themselves.īecause there are many modders who take (steal) assets they did not create, intellectual property of legitimate game companies, and charge ludicrous prices for them. This is the opposite of what Honey Select modders want you to believe. If someone legally purchases something, they are allowed to share it with people they know. I've started this project because the nature of property rights are such that (in my home country of the US, at least) you are free to do what you want with your property. No *real* talk of money or crowdfunding will be had on F95Zone itself, as it is very insecure, unmoderated, and public.
