Now that is a much better response to the thread in my opinion :-)
Perhaps we should deligate someone take Mark out to the pub every friday night, get a pint or two in him, and ask how things are going (briefly), and then post an update for him ;-)
@vanilla
Your points are so 'all over the place' that it's hard to figure out what the hell your saying...
Really???? to me it's a lack of communication, what makes you so well on to blatently tell me what I think?
Really??? So your saying that this might be an issue if it comes up again? Perhaps a pattern should be found rather than an excuse?
Your right! Wow, you just proved the point! So your saying they won't bother responding because they know nothing will change? Ignorance is the easiest solution I guess.
Nothing is going to change, fine, nothing is going to change.
Risk vs Reward and Change are the two principals of business. If you can't meet your customers at a mid point in the least, then it just goes to show.

To that list. Perhaps its a local thing? Perhaps it's that little American in me saying "voice your opinion, try to help make a change" that is coming through here. I see alot of sucessful businesses over here in the USA, and they all seem to have a common theme which makes them so sucessfull. Wonder if 'ignore the customer' is in one of Mr. Gates desk manuals for his customer rep staff?
After posting this I had to ask myself why in the world a product like DB would have such a huge community? The language blows, why is it still around. So I headed over there to see what I could find that was relevant to this thread and right there at the top of the forum was a post "TGC Newsletter Issue 33 is Out" which caught my attention. Only a few weeks old, but still attracting posters.
I honestly can't remember the last newsletter I got in my email.. Yes, I can see it on the front page of BRL, but if asked to summerize the content, I couldnt. I enjoyed the BRL newsletters, but that's not the point... It's odd that as I went searching for reasons why their products are doing so well I would find that their recent newsletter had an interview with Lee about the future of DBpro.
What am I asking? Nothing more than an open com channel that doesn't span 5 months at a crack.

Actually, it's due to the current command set. No amount of communication is going to change what command set is available to BMax right now.
Really???? to me it's a lack of communication, what makes you so well on to blatently tell me what I think?
This conversation will spring up in another 12 months after MaxGUI has been released.

Truth is, most people who have been here long enough have participated in this conversation once before and don't see the point in participating again.

This issue sees the release of FPS Creator, including an FPSC Level Making Competition and the first content pack.
There is also an interview with Lee Bamber who discusses both the development of FPSC and what happens next for DBPro (5.9 is imminent, read about it). Throw in a handful of games, forum chatter, cool new DLLs, a superb tutorial from BatVink and it's another pretty action packed issue.
