I'm glad people really are leaving this time. Every time this site has suffered one of these catastrophic "new and exciting upgrade!!!" disasters there have been lots of people threatening to leave, but few actually do. The pattern has been the same for years: Big ugly makeover, community uproar, admins do the "be patient, we're still ironing out the little wrinkles" routine and management just hunkers down and waits for it all to blow over. And it does - eventually the complaining stops when people realize nothing will ever improve, and eventually one forgets that everything used to be better. But it occurred to me that perhaps some of the ongoing squabbling in the Poser forum might be due to a growing level of general frustration and discomfort in this shitty site environment, like kids in a hot car.
No, the problem in the Poser forums is because Rendo has become popular throughout the intarwebz for Daz-Poser troll wars. Thus, people who want to denigrate the users of the other program will be attracted to the Rendo Poser forum.

Also, this update is exponentially more devastating than the previous ones. The last update involved a nerfed search and wishlist, the typical screen resolution problems, text eyesores, and a damned carousel that made the bundles unusable from then on.

This time, however.... the idiotic decisions on the gallery, the scrolling vendor list, the disappearance of sales announcements on the homepage... These are all fatal mistakes.
