Seriously..

I wish I could get a refund. I hate photoposts support.. even today, I posted my opinion on the matter (I'm not an immature person, I stated my opinion in an adult matter) and my posts are deleted. Gone.

After giving them all that money for both Photopost, and now vBGallery and not being able to state my opinion on the matter?

This is more of a reason to hate them now than before. Infact, before.. I never actually used the word, "hate". Maybe I'm just very upset about it, but still.


EDIT: Let me state that I don't dislike the products. Both products are incredible and I have no complaints about them. My issues are with the staff at Photopost. I have had nothing but bad luck with them.

they are closing threads and deleting posts on both sites right now... everyone is pissed and venting... if i were pp, i'd leave everything up and resolve everything... EVERYTHING... this would give new hope and respect for pp... resolving every issue may take a long ass time, but in the end, you will have full support and the best product on the market.
long term, success.

I am gonna have to agree with them on that one, I wouldnt let someone critise on a site where you are hoping to attract more customers. Why didnt you just email them?

I feel you but I think at this point it is a lack of PR that is causing the hoopla, this discussion should have happened a week ago on Vbadvanced instead of springing it on us.

Do you honestly think that if you went to Vb.com and posted that they would let you bash Vb there without removing the posts? Those are business decisions.

I'm not interested in slinging mud, if you want to do that you'll probably have to find somewhere else other than our respective sites because it doesn't belong.

As for "disclosure", I removed one thread that was nothing but mud slinging. Other than that, I also removed one post that I felt contained an inappropriate comment about the birth of my first son this past Thursday, something I would consider out-of-bounds on any forum.

@ Brian - Great News !! for making a product that was bought out. :D


Great investment Michael P. Looking forward to the party :)

Bingo! By deleting my posts, it just shows me that they are still just as shady as before. If not more.

I see your point, but I did not bash them. This is what I mean by I handled it in a mature way. If I were bashing them, then yes. And my posts weren't just upset/angry rants either. Infact, I stated how it was both a good and bad thing that this happened, and I listed what I felt the pros and cons were.

vBulletin would have allowed that. In my honest opinion, I saw nothing wrong with my posts there at all, and they were removed.

Assuming your post was part of the "bashing" thread, it would seem reasonable to say that it wasn't "your" post that caused the thread to be removed; but rather the tone and direction the entire thread had taken.

Wow, definately out of line then. MP, please refer to a slap hack I was working on :)

Look people, if you havent been shot at today then I would recommend relaxing a bit. The sun will come up tomorrow, most likely you will live to see it and if you are not reading this from a KBR internet trailer in Iraq, then you are not in the worlds worst place right now.

Prespective....

Can always count on you for putting it into perspective. ;)

Honestly, I said this on the photopost.com site; this all went down today and nature doesn't always respect business deals. I've been out of the loop since we were admited on Wednesday for the delivey of our first son (after four girls) and the lack of work on the forums on PhotoPost.Com is my responsibility. I haven't really been paying attention with what's going on, for obvious reasons; but am working to get up to speed as quickly as possible.

That said, I will be working on the information as soon as it comes in. I hope that everyone can respect that we don't always control the circumstances that set our priorities and that a couple days to get it all sorted out isn't much to ask for.

I wondering how hard it would be to get a temp photopost vbagallery hacks support forum setup on photospost.com as a short term solution, for members to help each other work out any bugs etc in the versions we have of vbagallery, while you wait for the dust to clear, posts or files from vbadvanced to arive :P

I just finished hacking my site with vbagallery, and I have a few bugs I need to work out .. I'm sure other members that use the systems would appeciate something like this ..

again congrats on your new little one :D
