Well that answers one thing as they're definately planning on redoing the whole site.But it also reveals a bit of falsehood in regard to this issue as by doing it in parts,they can certainly do it on a different server or another database to get it developed correctly and then make the change.They don't have to construct each segment individually...in fact,doing it this way makes it look like its taking much longer so people will be less forgiving. If it took up to 24 hours to propogate a change like that then shut down pieces of the site for that time...people are forgiving of that.Doing it this way makes it look like you don't know what you're doing,it causes confusion and it creates conflict that could have been avoided with foresight. To be honest Morrigan,I don't read much of the newsletter because it tends to be a bit dry and any mention of coupons I scan right over cause the rosity coupon discounts simply do not interest me...you have to make a purchase of a certain amount and have a short timeframe to use it so when I finally do get some cash to spend the coupons no longer valid.As Xeno alluded to with his comments regarding the repeated posts,he's noticed because he probably surfs all the forums...most don't and no matter where you post you should know in advance a lot of people probably won't see it or it will be the same ones because they surf multiple forums here. I don't like DAZ which by now everyone should know,but their site is far easier to navigate and when they make changes like this they have learned (in most cases) to put the info up in bold text wherever the most customer traffic is...they don't bury it in a forum thread or simply rely on their newsletter when a lot of peeps may not be subscribed or may not read it if they are.They have a much more fluid site when you surf looking for products and although they also have issues,they do take steps to correct them.Here its clear a lot of people are having problems...the DAZ answer would be discounts and reperations of some kind~here its keep pointing out that members should have known and more or less its your fault for not knowing.This from someone who hates DAZ and likes Renderosity so you know it burns my goat having to say they're better than you in any way.
If the end goal of learning is genius...why are most geniuses failures at learning?
