To my surprise, I was informed that there are approximately 5 persons on this board that are expected to like Poser 6 and intend to spend their precious time posting here instead of actually creating images for their empty galleries, bragging with their shiny P6 box or changing their baby's diapers. Which is why I am reuquired to post additional guidelines for P6 lovers.

So, you have decided to love Poser 6? Well, it's not that easy to join this elitist club. It is actually required that you were born with in-depth knowledge of every feature, were a beta tester, slept with a CL employee (making out doesn't count) or acutally wrote that thing yourself. If you ever thought being pro Poser 6 is being the devil's advocate, you're wrong. It's a very easy and glamorous life, since you can show off in every post how supreirour you and your computer are. Here's how to proceed:

• In every "I have a problem with P6"-thread, post a quick note that it works just fine for you. Note that you don't need to actually read the thread.
• It's obvious that there are no bugs in P6. Everything that goes wrong is clearly a PEBKAC*. If the others were as smart as you, they wouldn't have problems.
• When providing help, post screenshots from you 30" display that are 2048x1600 pixels. Everyone should have a screen this big.
• You spent two days reading a Japanese web site to figure out feature xyz you expect everyone to invest at least the same effort before posting at all.
• It's not a bug, it's a feature. Example: "It crashes when you hit render? That's a very useful function, it's the speed exit to bypass the 'do you want to save your work' dialog."
• Point out any interpunctation and spelling errors in other people's posts. This shows how smart you are and frees you from the burden of understanding what others are trying to say.
• Explain to people that they are not supposed to what they're doing. Quote an important application or production that did not do that either. Example: "Raytracing? Pixar didn't use raytracing for Toy Story, so why should you?". Ignore the fact that your references are from a completely different context and decade.
• Be quick and precise. Phrases like "please", "thanks", "here you are", "hope this helps" or "I can relate to your frustration" only decrease your efficiency.
• If Poser 6 can do one thing that application X can't do, it's entirely superior to application X. Besides, application X is too expensive and you never liked its UI.
• There is no such thing as slow renders. The person that complains about it should optimize their system, get an up-to-date computer and was too stupid to figure out that he/she should have used a bucket size of 37 instead of 36. Duh.

*PEBKAC = problem exists between keyboard and chair. Using cryptic acronyms and technical terms will emphasize your superiour appearance.

Following these easy steps will earn you eternal gratitude of other board members and turn you into a Poser guru. Other forum members are supposed to give you their first born and tremble in fear when you post another "it works for me" comment.
