It was well after 2016 - probably around the time Bondware was acquiring Poser legally from them. So 2017-18? I'd have to sort my inbox to find the exact mail and date. So then now you admit I'm not completely wrong?

Well, you are PARTLY wrong. You appear to be a little mixed up on the timing of, and who was responsible for, Poser 11 which is why I kept trying to tell you that Poser was doing fine when the original team was there.

The ORIGINAL TEAM was there when Poser 11 was released in Nov 2015. There were (IIRC) 5 or 6 service releases done in the weeks and months that followed. The original team was let go in Nov 2016, after which the new team took over. There may have been a couple of original team members there when 11.0.7 and 11.0.8 were released, and to help the new team during the transition.

The first release from the NEW team was Poser 11.1 ... there is one place that says that was released in Dec 2017. Then according to online sources, 11.1.1 was released in Jan 2019.

Bondware's first "bridge" release, to resolve the issues before SMSI broke their activation server, was released in Sept 2019. So it's been in their hands for a little over a year now. Considering they have actually done MORE in that year than the new team did in the 3 they had it, I think they are owed some credit and are again moving Poser forward. I had little hope with SM's new team. I DO have hope now. So I'm sorry to say, I disagree with you.

That being said, I haven't tried to be nasty when I have responded to you. I really don't appreciate being called "an idiot" by someone who doesn't listen, but it is what it is. I have to bow out again here, because to reply any more will only perpetuate the insults further. All I was trying to do was respond to your posts with FACTS. That's all.

Have a good day.

Well if that's in fact the case, then the old team screwed 11 up first. I therefore retract my assertion about it. I have no idea when said original team left but if, as you say, they were responsible for 11, then I can see why Smith released them from duties. 11 is a joke with no punchline. It continues to be bad and 12 is showing practically no improvement. Though knowing this now (pending you know what you're talking about) -- it does make sense why they ran the original team out.
