I tell you all what, I will print off this entire thread and take it to the programmers and go over each question/issue here and do my best to get you all information back.  Just give me a day or two because I will be taking 1/2 a vacation day tomorrow as I have a child support hearing I desperately need to be at and I won't be in the office at all until Friday but I will get back in here I promise.

The programmers really don't frequent the forums that much is why they aren't in here answering. They are so tied up these days that they just can't follow everything in the forums so I have to be the messenger here...

 

Thank you all

 

Okay...this was written back last Wednesday and so far, the only one I have seen in here is you, Stacey. The only response to it all is the discussions of a not being able to give an estimated time of everything being completed and a poll in this forum on the site speed. Fair enough.

But what about being able to at least choose if we want all the gallery comments on one page or spread out over several pages for some artists? That issue is still being ignored.

What about the quirky ebots that sometimes you get, sometimes you don't and sometimes you get them 2 - 3 days after the fact? Again...no response. And don't tell me it's my ISP, thank you, when I see several others posting with the same problem that do not use my ISP. Don't tell me it's going into my spam filter either when I have the ability to check my junk mail and every address Renderosity has ever had is in my address book and therefore deemed by my mail to NOT be spam.

Let's talk about site speed..... You now hope it's where it should be after the conversion is completed? You told us that converting the MP and the Galleries and the Forums would increase site speed. You've made announcements that these areas are converted. So logic says the speed should be improved, yet according to the poll listed, the opposite is true.

All fairy dust.

It works fine for you, so it must be our problem. I make a predication. It's not our problem. It's actually Renderosity's problem. Cause I keep seeing a trend. I keep seeing people who have been here for years getting fed up with all the so-called glitz and glamor and the fairy dust being thrown around and just taking off to find sites where they can post and receive ebots as they should and they don't have to put up with so many un-necessary clicks to do it. And now we have a new item that has the users of this site up in arms. Google ads that throw off the CSS set by the user. And the user had to set their own CSS in the first place simply because Renderosity took away a simple one click color change that made everyone happy.  And why the ads? What are they needed for? To generate money for Renderosity. Vendors don't seem to be doing it anymore. Wonder what the reason is for that? Could it be because with the new MP conversion, more people find it harder to purchase here than they did before, so they don't? And don't be telling us the ads are here to help the users find site related sites. Trust me....everyone here pretty much knows every site that has the least little bit to do with 3D, so that's another fairy dust blowing.

I first started coming here because it was a site that was good and fast and easy to use. I liked the way the galleries were set up and the MP was easy to use. I don't come here that often anymore. It's not the same place. It no longer cares about the community that helped build it.
