I wouldn't call Blender a "toy". It's biggest drawback as open source coding is funding. So it's actually taken a page from the DAZ play book recently and it's starting to use funding from other sources and incomes it has created to help support itself.

False, Earl. Let's not do this today. And let's not do a blender-maya-max software war either.

Take this as being the same type of being uninformed as the fact that most of us in the know knew about the SM layoffs back when they happened and we were waiting to see how long it would take for the rest of you to find out. It's the beginning of April, correct?

Umm, false how exactly? Blender is open source and does take donations. And to help itself with funding, as I understand it, at least, they've just created a subscription based service, called Blender Cloud. It's right there on their Blender.org web page. And I don't know anything about Maya, or max , and I didn't mention them, so I don't know how or where you think I'm trying to start some kind of software war over them.

You said it's taking a page from DAZ which is false. Since when does DAZ take donations? Read your own quote.

EDIT: You changed your original post from it saying Blender was taking a page from DAZ. That's why it's out of place now.

This is off topic anyway and you're right in TOS violation area, you should probably put the brakes on all this.

I have no idea what you're talking about, and I don't think you do either. I never said anything about DAZ taking donations. I said Blender ACCEPTS donations, and it was taking a page from DAZ by looking at other services it has to help fund Blender development. Just like DAZ funds Studio development through selling content. Blender.org is looking for ways to raise money though things it has done and created like the Clolud service. Seriously, dude. What is wrong with you?

Sure earl. I know what you said, and it's amazing how you're playing innocent while still participating in the maya blender fight. But it's nothing out of the ordinary that you make posts and participate in fights then pretending you didn't start them. Shall we go over the posts you made here and runtimeDNA to that fact or the fact that you wanted to quit the aforementioned forums or you were "afraid" to create threads because they ended up in fights?

And you're you're asking what's wrong with me... Seriously Earl, let's get back to the topic at hand.
