Sorry, I don't buy it.
Ok - so I wasn't aware of the seperated server logon counts (Peter, I'm waiting to be fish-slapped).
But what you are doing now, is what you've been doing since this whole PHP thing was brought up.
Trying to use the format of PHP as an excuse for bad communication and implementation might work on the general mentality around here - it's just corporate 'cool-off' talk which goes in one ear and out of the other of THIS marketer - it won't work on me.
PHP is a format of code - it's not an excuse to rob us of the features we became accustomed to.
Renderosity should and COULD have been re-coded in the more versatile PHP format - and it COULD have been done without removing everything that made Renderosity different.
There was no need to rip the guts out of it like you have - if it were human, it's barbaric!
I'm not against change, evolution, whatever... but I've a low tollerance of inefficiency and BAD logic.
Renderosity had a WINNING formula, and you've just removed it - nice one!
I think it's unfortunate that the coders for this site are currently working their asses off in order to fine-tune a system which, when it's completed, will be less usable than the format we had before.
Anyway, I'm not going to do one of those I'M GOING TO LEAVE UNTIL YOU GIVE ME WHAT I WANT thingummies, nah - I have too much respect for all the work that's going into it for that.
Nevertheless, you now have a format that is TOO-MUCH like the competition - and after the novelty of Avatars and Smileys have lost their impact, I think you might find Renderosity will get lost in the profusion of other similar forums.
I hope I'm wrong Stacey - best of luck to all, and thank's for the reply.
Len.
