I miscounted I meant this post further down:


"Sorry to say this my fellow Poserites,

but the posts I do read here do sound more and more like the passengers on the "Titanic" who discuss at what moment the "automatic anti-sinking" mechanics will stop the ship from going down.

Yet we have no messages from the bridge, and the officers we knew and trusted have already been tossed over board. All we have left are some Portugese stokers who heat the boilers for their first time, wondering what all these odd gauges (sp?) are for.

In the meantime we keep discussing ways of improving the promenade deck and the dining room, or how to fine tune the steam engines to get another 2 1/2 more rpm on the propellers.

What we all disregard is that this isn't 1912 anymore, and that other ships have long since overtaken the Titanic, whatever we try.

So either build a new ship which is up to today's standards, or let it sink right here and now, decently.

Then hand over the plans to a new construction yard who, maybe?, will make something better from them. This has happened in the past already, so why not again? Oh, and I hope it won't be that shipyard in the middle of the Utah desert who takes charge...

Sorry for saying this, but I'm afraid that WE ALL are starting to be confined in a local "comfort bubble", and while we discuss aetheric minor problems we all ignore the tell-tale signs on every wall. .

NOTA BENE: I'm not one of the usual "Thas" trolls! I am the one who made SASHA-16, in the hope it could save Poser from becoming oblivious. But the longer I watch what is going on, the more desparate I become."


Perhaps a minority opinion.

As I said, Use whatever tools, figure & skills you have at your disposal to pursue this hobby/pastime.

Let's be honest ..NONE of us are producing anything that can be eaten, lived in ,or worn on the body for warmth in the real world. its all just a bit of disposable, fleeting entertainment.

Okay, well, now I know who Wolf is in the SM Forum. Kind of wondered why you weren't posting there.

And I'll say this again, I have pretty much stopped using V4 and am now using Dusk and Dawn. I have plenty of stuff for them, can readily find the stuff I don't have already, or push come to shove, can make what I need for them.

In other words, I'm still having fun. ... so far.
