[font=Comic Sans MS][size=x-large]HEY [color=#ff0000]VIP[/color][/size][/font][font=Comic Sans MS][size=small][color=#ff0000]S[/color] ..[/size][/font][font=Comic Sans MS][size=x-large] IT IS UNFAIR TO PUT THE [color=#ff0000]UDEMY SECTION [/color]ON VIP !!! [/size][/font]
[font=Comic Sans MS][size=x-large]IT IS BELONG TO YOU IF YOU WANT TO RIP COURSES IN VIP SECTION [/size][/font] [font=Comic Sans MS][size=x-large] BUT IT IS OUR PLACE (AS MEMBERS) [/size][/font] [font=Comic Sans MS][size=x-large] .. SO IT COULD BE CLOSED FOR MEMBERS ONLY AND CONTAIN ONLY COUPONS [/size][/font]

I'm sorry I never knew that the free coupon is legal, I thought it was a a rip coupon from that fan pages. Thank you for you're reply, now I know.

This whole thread has been founded on rumour and speculation...

I think you will find that most instructors will know full well that once something is published in the web, that it'll be stolen by someone, somewhere.

The coupons are meant to be distributed, that is the point.

I think they will change their security and it would be difficult to rip their courses.

I've yet to see any technology that can stop ripping. It's a fact of life that once you send a stream out it can be captured.

The assumption that there will be less free coupons because the course is being ripped is preposterous. The free coupons are to promote the course and raise the course in the udemy ranks. The money is made in the backend - other courses, add ons and services which may be promoted within the course. And of course the list.

This forum exists to share stolen material. Why should udemy be any different? There is no real loss to the course instructor as those who download from here are unlikely to ever buy. There are no additional costs as the course is already made. There is a benefit, in that if people get to know you they're more likely to buy future material. Even those who have downloaded for free...

I have spoken to the (few) udemy instructors I know personally and none have express any concern about their courses being ripped - they accept it's a fact of life.

i agree that "thetechdude01" failed to deliver ANY evidence supporting his claim... but this discussion is important...

"Animal88" - i understand what you are saying but this section is mainly about sharing coupons and i personally think that it should
stay that way.. and i also think that there's a big difference between a great product that was created by small individuals like you and me and either a crappy product or something that is created by large companies...

"I have spoken to the (few) udemy instructors" - sure.. some don't mind... and most of them don't share 100% discount coupons anyway... but those who do, do it to get exposure... WE GET THE COURSES FOR FREE... so is there a need to ruin this exchange?

lets create a separation... we can actually get much more coupons if we work with the instructors... helping them get exposure
while getting free slots...

we need to set rules.

it seems we are playing chicken little here and also repeating things alot.
which means very little, since it is not in our hands anyway. but for future postings, let's get some basics again. (I know,... I'm repeating too)

coupons are public and shared on other sites too. coupons serve a purpose, that's why instructors make them available in the first place.

there may be some instructors that don't like the idea their courses are being ripped. stands to reason, since they lose the benefits the coupons are supposed to provide.

this and only this sub section has gained alot of exposure, causing possible ripples.
these are the facts I can agree on.

and this is my proposal /opinion-
1. coupon section should remain open in freebie section. (no reason not to be. nothing illegal or exclusive with us doing that.)
2. maybe we/they should limit rips to the vip section only. (this will separate the issue.)
3. lower the exposure specifically from this sub section. possibly by removing search robots/rankings/whatever. (google's top ten really isn't a good place for this site as whole).

how's that? can we all work on this as a base?

i agree with everything you said...

BUT, a moderator is needed since people can to whatever they want
without regulations.

we need rules, sticky notes etc...

I can agree with this and maybe should be renamed 'udemy coupons' to make it clear.

Don't agree with this. Why should udemy be anything special? and why restrict to VIP? Just keep them in the download section which requires membership.

I'd possibly agree with this, need to think on it a little more.
