skiwhiz, i didn't even mean it like that. i'm very well aware of just about everything you said, although i'm sure zero very much appreciates your mentioning. i never did have ipb installed on my site. i used to have v3 installed on my site for 3.0.7 and after killing off those tables, and upgrading to 3.5 i haven't had any arcade or my site. my members are bugging the heck out of me, i wouldn't mind supplying them with a (little-as it's already on rc2) buggy arcade, if i know it's the better choice for my site, which i believe it is. matter of fact i wouldn't have waited if i had known it would take another month from when zero said in maybe a week or so he'll get a release out. if i had known that much i would have just gone with the worser pick that being v3. just to please my members, my members dont know that theirs something better emerging, and people that only know so much wont mind. i just mind, cuz i wanted the best, but keeping them waiting is painful as hell.
and i'm not getting stressed here, or starting an uproar or anything, the only reason i'm saying what i'm saying right now is to let you know whats up cause you put it out there.
i do appreciate all of zero's hard work, and am very sure that he invests as much freetime in this project as he may have. the appreciation is there, and although i dont understand why he didn't put out rc2 for more testers (as i doubt testers would be complaining about a release)... i do respect his choice. i was just letting Coleccromos know that he isnt the only one dying to get his hands on this.
i hope this wont heat up the discussion, but rather just clear it up so we can all get back on topic and just wait for a stable release.
