So yeah, let's boycott Carrara! Let's try to convince people to not buy it! Let's whine and piss and moan on every Carrara forum on the web!

Seriously?

What's always been the BLINDINGLY OBVIOUS problem with Carrara is that it simply doesn't sell well enough for DAZ to pump an endless amount of resources into its development. There are plenty of reasons why DAZ has always struggled with Carrara: DAZ can't seem to figure out how to make a good case for Carrara, the (ignorant) perception of Carrara is that it's too advanced and complicated for the Poser/DS crowd, yet not advanced enough for the pros- (Neither statement is true) And the list goes on...

Seriously though, Carrara's biggest obstacle is Carrara users! I know for a fact that there are plenty of first-rate artists using Carrara, yet they rarely, if ever, post their work online. Every time Carrara comes up in a Poser or DS forum, nobody steps in to correct the endless stream of ignorance and misinformation that's being spewed by some mouth-breather who gave up on Carrarra five minutes after stealing it from a file sharing site.

Most of all it's the constant complaining by Carrara users. How many people have the whiners turned away from Carrara? How many people are illegally downloading Lightwave right now because DAZ made the unforgivable decision to charge half of what Carrara is actually worth?

So let's band together and boycott Carrara! Let's intentionally hurt the people who rely on Carrara! And maybe, if everything works out, DAZ will stop making Carrara and can all take out second mortgages and buy Maya!
