Just wanna post my input to the whole situation.
This thread is really starting to grind my gears, to be honest.
I've been around MMOwned for a pretty long time, though I haven't made a name for myself, I've seen a lot. I've seen AZO's awesome edits when Noggit was only limited to 1.12, (However, these edits are pretty much obsolete compared to the present, still awesome, however), and ~SinX's attempts at bringing a some 'art' back into the 2.4. (Good edits; but once again, obsolete). Present day; SirFranc is one of the FEW good modeleditors remaining (I don't want to make a list to make people feel excluded, but there are a majority on MMOwned, and here.) and as one of the few remaining, he is looked up to as a 'legend' per se . As said by SirFranc, I'm sure anyone would be pissed if their edits would be released to the public including myself.(May I remind you, when stuff is released to the public, it loses most if not all of its true meaning).
What I'm trying to say is that people shouldn't go around taking other people work to get credit. It's immoral and wrong. and to clear up another little problem, SirFranc (as well as others) only release screenshots of their work to hype up the community, to get support with the project, and to get some feedback, whether it be positive, or negative. I really don't believe KuR was in the right when he said the things he said, hell, tbh, I never really liked the admins on MMOwned, Ket being excluded, as I never really hated him.
One last thing to be learned here though, while people like SirFranc are using these 'User-made' tools like Noggit and Taliis, the creators of the tools usually get little to no credit, in fact, without them, Worldbuilding would cease to exist in its current form. However, a message to Schumpf, without Cryect, your program would be nowhere.
