Yup ... what he said :)

Someone (a top merchant) once mentioned to me that he never paid any mind to what was said in the forums because no matter how many people were complaining about something - they didn't represent even 1% of the Poser userbase. The vast majority of Poserites happily make their purchases without concerning themselves much with the criticisms being made in threads like these. That's a sad fact of life because if it's true then the only way you can influence what is being made and marketed is by casting your dollar votes for what you believe in.

So it looks like Renderdog has it in a nutshell :)
