The Poser community is in no danger, if we survived the worst case scenario (Poser being dropped from MC with an indetermined future) we'll survive anything. The fact is, the Poser community will take care of itself. If the PFO went down, another forum will eventually take its place. The competition forces forum leaders to listen to its members. Those who don't listen will eventually close shop. The rivalry has done nothing but good for many of us--we are no longer under the dictates of one forum, we have alternatives. If the PFO wants to bail out early, it's their choice, not the result of some conspiracy. The only folks hurt by these latest events have been the PFO's most loyal followers in an attempt to place blame on Renderosity and the Props Guild. It seems that abusing your friends to hurt your enemies is inexcusable, (and par for the course for the way the PFO is run). And to Roy: Poser's a piece of software--it doesn't pick sides, and it'll still love you at the end of the day. Poser's love is unconditional. Don't drop the software because of the users. (It's akin to not using a hammer because you're anti-union)
