Has anyone else noticed that just after DAZ absorbed PoserPros into Artzone, and Content Paradise broke up its partnership with Renderosity & RDNA, RDNA now switches to Bondware... the same webhosting site as Renderosity...? <br /> <br /> What The...? <br /> <br /> <b><span style="color: orange;">G</span><span style="color: black;">r</span><span style="color: orange;">o</span><span style="color: black;">u</span><span style="color: orange;">c</span><span style="color: black;">h</span><span style="color: orange;">o</span><span style="color: black;">C</span><span style="color: orange;">a</span><span style="color: black;">e</span><span style="color: orange;">s</span><span style="color: black;">a</span><span style="color: orange;">r</span></b>

Never thought about it. But as in all things, it will all come to an end. Look how <br /> many times Poser jumped from one to another and Bryce will probably end <br /> up in the trash can thanks to DAZ. <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/connie_ashamed.gif" alt="" /> But you didn't hear that from me. <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/redembarrassed.gif" alt="" /> <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/lmao.gif" alt="" /> (False Rumor)

I've already wrote my opinions on poserpros about it (can't do the same on 'rosity because Karen Janes banned me <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/rolleyes.gif" alt="" /> ) <br /> <br /> However: Posepros started as a site made of refugees from Renderosity. At that time (I'm user # 2387) I joined it because the interface (phpbb, the same of Posetteforever <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/biggrin.gif" alt="" /> ) was newer and better and some people, mainly Virtualsite, Sean Martin, gave me some basic hints commenting my first pictures and Posettes <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/heartbeat.gif" alt="" /> . I had, and still have in some way, an affection for that site. The core people there said that 'rosity policy was crap, freedom of speech etc. etc. but it looked like that they simply didn't agree with the low percentage granted to the vendors in the market. <br /> <br /> There was a nice atmosphere but the wind changed when it started "banner time" and then "the store" . <br /> <br /> It was in that period that I quietly went away from "Victoria here" and "Victoria there" places and I began with Posetteforever because I didn't want my beloved Posettes <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/heartbeat.gif" alt="" /> to be forgotten. <br /> <br /> Then some rumors of a scandal (I really know little of it because I was not interested) and they sold the place to DAZ. <br /> <br /> Really, the mood of the place changed from what it was at the beginning, you could go there , post a picture and have a lot of comments and suggestions from professional artists, my last pictures posted there never received a comment if not from the same friends of the Posetteforever crew <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/group.gif" alt="" /> , lol . <br /> <br /> Renderosity ? I don't even want to comment, it is a place made to earn money and nothing else, the staff is made of mercenaries and mercenaries obey to who pay them, there is no fairplay. <br /> <br /> As I already wrote at PP, I can have a twisted mind but for me the "poserpros operation" was staged like it went from the beginning: Build a place, wait for a 10 thousand users for a base, then add banners and open the store, then accept a big check and sell it to the Big Daddy. Big Daddy close the place and moves the toys to his house. Sad <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/very_sad.gif" alt="" /> . <br /> <br /> Bondware "is" Renderosity and if you want my opinion (lurking the crystal ball <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/eusa_shifty.gif" alt="" /> ) sooner or later DAZ will buy Renderosity. <br /> <br /> Poser has been sold once again (*rubbing the crystal ball*) to this "Smith Micro" or something like that and I know nothing of the future upgrades <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/dontknow.gif" alt="" /> , we can only hope but it looks like the given standard could be "Daz Studio" (that I personally, don't like). <br /> <br /> This is how monopolies work. <br /> <br /> We? We're only a group of friends <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/group.gif" alt="" /> , Posetteforever can't be compared to Big Daddies , it's a sort of "Wikipedia", we sell nothing , we earn nothing and we're not in competition because the rest is simply a different thing.

Very well stated Davide, I believe you have stated some very good facts and foreseen a grim future for poser which is sad but true when it comes to the corporate world we live in. Posette Forever is a safe haven in the corporate world. Thank goodness you have provided it for us, your family of friends across the miles and seas to come and sit down and talk, play and share our humble art. Also I believe that we represent a piece of whats good in the world, a place and people who care about each other no matter what we are or where we are born from. Not to say that we <PF> hasn't had it's trials and tribulations, but we have met those challenges and faced them and dealt with them in as much fairness as we <you> can and hopefully we all learn from this and try to better ourselves as a whole and not divide ourselves for the sake of money or glory. <br /> <br /> Thank you Posetteforver family <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/smile.gif" alt="" />
