I know exactly what your talking about because I have seen the same things being said. I will tell you I've downloaded a lot from this site and I've never had a virus. The only thing that I can think of is that the people's patterns that are on here most don't have permission and some of them get upset that their patterns are being sold here and so maybe they make up things. What they (the owners of the patterns) don't realize is that yes their patterns are on here yet most without their permission BUT it's not like they are being sold to people this site uses their own currency within the website.

All new downloads are posted in a sort of "waiting room" where users can't download anything. You can only download them after a moderator moves the thread to the relevant area.
