So do you think this was a honest move towards honest Poser users ? I personally thing NO it was NOT , but it is the passed, some accepted the happening others did not. The ones who accepted all of this, jumped onto newer releases, the others just keep the older versions running until they die then change to another optional hoppy. As simple as that.

Personally and also from many discussions with my community members, majority did not find a good acceptance about this whole doing, sticking on older poser versions or just jumping to DS. Allot of trusted users gotten hurt with this business affair " Sure understandable " so in silence they go.

You might call all this a full new start, the old ones will be forgotten, and may be fresh blood will be attracted in the future that never had anything to do with poser the past decades, also removing any dependence of a V4 or older poser stuff that is no longer supported. Like you always mention Poser can't be stuck on all this old stuff and needs to Improve so the old literarily needs to be replaces. All the old stuff for Poser never will be supported again as these creators are long gone! So the only way is a cold Start and if this does not work because of wrong managing and marketing, if no new creators or customers appear, well then you might figure out the answer your self.  But all this " The Plan " is not including us old users that stand short before our retirements with already one leg in the grave.
