With all due respect MPDev, you run a business with paying customers. If I went to my boss on a friday and said "oh I havent done any of my work since monday because I had all these real life issues" - I would be out the door! You've had a kid, congrats and good luck - but don't expect the whole world to sit around waiting for you. We are paying for a service and we don't want to hear excuses. The whole cloak and dagger approach of this 'deal' is making me spit blood. Someone on these forums a short while back commented on how the vB community has matured - that is very correct and you can't treat us in this way. If it wasn't bad enough not getting a decent Gallery update in over half a year I've now had my custom sold to the highest bidder. I'll give PP a chance to show me what can be done I guess, but the impression I'm getting thus far isn't a good one. This whole thing stinks of illegality, have any of you actually sought legal advice? For your sake I hope so...

OK so first reactions may seem a little harsh. But like I say I'll give PP a chance, not through choice though, to see what they can do - I appreciate what MPDev says and I can't judge the company by what a few disgruntled voices say. It may be the start of something beautiful. But then again it may not...
/me lights up (how appropriate it's green on this style) I'm gonna relax now... |

And if you couldn't get a few days off from work to have a kid, then I would suggest you are working at the wrong company.

As my second post suggests, I realised I may have been a little harsh. But, for example... I work for T-Mobile, I would get the day off if I had a kid, but would I expect all the customers to wait until I got back into the office before I could deal with their support? It doesn't happen that way if you want to retain custom. The way this has been dealt with is making every vBa Gallery customer want to jump ship away from PP ASAP, there are already talks of rival scripts. You could have welcomed these customers with open arms, and told them about the future. Instead you have left them in a haze of confusion and panic, and I think most people just want you to admit that is the case rather than the approach of 'we don't know exactly what's happening'. That would set me, at least (and I expect a few others) at ease. At the moment it feels like I'm being taken for a ride.

Has your website died in the past 24 hours where you must get anything done at this minute? I would be more upset with Brian not telling us about this than the people on the receiving end. |

Yeah and I assume that PP has more employees? If not, why not - as support demand is clearly not being met if this is the case.
My website has not died, I don't need access to the files or an update. It's not going to rock my world. But it's the fact that consideration was not given to the customers is what riles me. But like I say, it isn't the end of the world.
