Attached Link: Content Paradise

"Hey, I seem to recall Kupa promising to come in and tell us what the heck they were DOING for the past 3 years. Did I miss it, or did that never happen?" Not to my knowledge, but, then again, CL staff has a tendency to ignore my posts - or so it would seem. I actually take that as a compliment, meaning that I ask questions that they would rather not answer, at least publicly. :o) "Actually, weren't the releases about 15 days apart?" CL actually released P5 on Sep 6, IIRC, vs Sep 15. It seems to me they could have seriously used the extra few 9 days to address some of the problems. "Has anyone checked to see if this "Contest Paradise" is working yet... nearly a MONTH after the release of Poser 5?" I check it everytime before I post that it is still "Coming Soon". EGISYS slated the "Grand Opening" in August, it is now nearing mid-October. I would imagine that there is some force behind it not opening, probably the same force that has produced the code base for P5. Quite possibly, it could be the presumed "low numbers" for P5 that is delaying CP if there is a determination that it will not provide enough benefit to justify the cost. Perhaps, the number of vendor/merchants that have signed up for CP is insufficent as well. Only an insider really knows. "Do you guys really believe the protection scheme is what is causing all the problems with P5 ????" IIRC, Larry Weinberg made a post, either here or at PoserPros, stating that they were contacting PACE to see why the Interlock system was causing problems and users had to revert to a previous version of the DLL to get it functioning properly. That is evidence enough for me that the protection is part of the problem. So far, TTBOMK, there has been no update regarding this either. It may not be causing *all* of the problems, but for a CEO to get involved, it must be serious enough.
