Having looked over a bunch of responses, I've got a few more thoughts that are kind of similar in nature: WIP and Off-Topic are things I'd rather see left out. Like everything, it's a matter of degree. If there's a couple a day, it doesn't bother me. If it starts drowning out the Poser information I'm here for, it does become a problem. Back in the old days before community newsgroups were choked to death by spammers, I found myself losing interest in some because they had become too chatty. That's a good thing and a bad thing. It's nice to have a community atmosphere where people from around the world are brought together over the joy of using a piece of software. Without an enforced focus, it's very possible that the tone of the forum can shift from being a useful place to learn about Poser to something where a person, who wants to ask a question about Poser, is almost out of place because everybody's talking about their kids and their vacations and other stuff. This forum currently serves a purpose and I'd rather not see that focus be diluted too greatly. Much as I understand the dilemma of creators wanting to gain feedback on projects in development, it's a tough area to have here. It seemed a year ago that every third or fourth post was a blatant advertisement disguised as a WIP. Maybe the solution is having a signature line that links to the products page in an otherwise on topic post. I can't see any easy way to say some WIPs are okay and others are more ads than useful posts. It's easier to say "no" to all of them.
