Poser - OFFICIAL F.A.Q (Last Updated: 2024 Nov 21 6:06 am)
Ahhhh yes, the great Centauri Poser controversy. I've been keeping a close eye on this horrific injustice. Its good to hear directly from someone as extinguished, erm... distinguished as yourself Mr. Ambassador. As a great admirer of the Centauri uhh... people... I will do everything in my power to convince Curious Labs to lower the price to the Centauri's by 2.74 ec, as I believe this would be a fair concession. I've already written an epitath expressing my outrage on a post-it note, folded it into a crude little paper airplane, and tossed it in the general direction of the CL headquarters building. I'm sure that this will turn the tide for you and that this outrage will soon be a distant memory. So rest easy Mr. Ambassador Rectumis, your troubles are almost over! The only remaining question at this point is, would you like your copy shipped regular freight for 12,396,392 ec or via overnight for 35,395,847 ec?

In the great days of the Republic, a thousand Kupa's would rise to write code at the snap of a centauri childs finger. Alas, after your overwhelming lack of good taste in allowing your emperor to die on Narn (of all places) can you really expect CL to treat you with the same respect? Ranger Weir-dass, Anlashock HQ, Minbar "we live for the one"... you know the restAhh yes Quixote, with the Ambassador's problems being all behind him he will have an "Anus Horribilis" indeed. Excellent analysis sir, I salute you. And please do not despair at the loss of a potential knighthood, I hear the Ambassador is high... er... has friends in high places. If you jump on the bandwagon and launch your own little post-it note, a Centauri royal title may yet be in your future.
Why, thank you, Mr. Orio. As always, I wish only to serve my people. You, too, have proven something to the world, Mr. Orio. You have proven that your grasp of humor is exceeded only by your immense dedication to friendship, loyalty, patience and trust. As always, your servant. Signed, Ambassador Cranial Rectumis Centauri Republic
My esteemed, Dr. Legume, I must offer my deepest apologies. It appears that there has been some mistake by my staff. In inspecting my travel bag, it appears I do not possess the items you requested. I do, however, have one super-size tub of itchy-hot, one crowbar and what I believe the Earthers call a "spear-gun." Perhaps we could improvise? Your humble servant, Ambassador Cranial Rectumis Centauri Republic

I admit that had I hoped that CuriousLabs would do it right for once by Centauri customers, that things would finally change for us here. Apparently not. I must add my voice to the chorus of those charging CuriousLabs with crimes against sentience. Centauri users are still "C-class" Poser users to CuriousLabs. It does not matter that all financial surveys show that the power of purchase of the great Centauri Republic is less than that of Earth. We, the people of the great Centauri Republic, have a right granted to us by the Great Maker to be treated as we wish, when we wish regardless of the practicality or cost to the provider! CuriousLabs still thinks that the Earth users are the users to take care of and that the Centauri users are the rich and wealthy idiots to be abused and neglected. Yes, abused. Because a price recharge from 329ec (Earth Credits) to 489ec (Centauri ducats equivalent) is something that would be excessive even if it was applied by a third party reseller. Being that it is applied by the producing company itself, I do not consider it anything other than an insult to my people. Yes, an insult to the people of the great Centauri Republic because there is NO reason WHATSOEVER for a price recharge of 160ec on a total of 329 to be applied. There is no shipping cost excuses or VAT (Vorlon Access Tax) excuses that can justify such a huge price increase when there is no reseller implied. There is no reason, even though CuriousLabs is a small company with few employees that relies heavily on third-party distributors or even though they have publicly asked for time to build a distribution network that takes many companies years to build or even though they have made it clear that many pricing plans are still in a state of flux, that we, the people of the great Centauri Republic, cannot have everything we want exactly when we want it and exactly how we want it! The only explanation is that the Earth user base is the A-class user base to be pleased with low prices and special offers, while the Centauri user base is the C-class user base that is used to get back some of the money that was invested in promoting version 105 of Poser to the Earth users. The Earthers get the Dabo girls while we are stuck with those beady-eyed Drazis! Shame, shame again. And here we were there during your war with the Minbari well, okay, we were not. But THAT is no excuse for this current outrage! Not since the unprovoked attack on Ragesh 3 by those thrice-damned Narns have we, the people of the great Centauri Republic, felt such outrage! Outrage! As a Centauri Poser, I feel discriminated against and have lost all faith in CuriousLabs. I intend to bring this to the floor of the Centaurum and then to the League of Non-Aligned Worlds for immediate action! If this outrageous behavior continues, I would remind CuriousLabs of what happened to the Narn homeworld when they crossed the line! I do not think you would wish that for yourselves! Eh? And so it goes Signed, Ambassador Cranial Rectumis Centauri Republic
