Yup let's leave it to the hackers to decide, in the meantime we should all change our browsers ;).
 
(sorry Beepster nothing personal, your posts are well written nevertheless :).

Heh. That's the second time in 24 hours I've been complimented on my writing skills. If only I were a little smarter or more entertaining I might have a career. ;-p

Doing fine Beep. I hope all is well with you.

Meh. Desperate to find a new place. May have to expand my search. Cheers.

Said all I need to say but no doubt I'll be bouncing the thread every now and then until somebody from Cake finally takes notice.

Why am I not surprised...? since you are in this Sonar X1/X2 forum posting off topic (cakewalk subscriptions), then thread-jacking the off topic thread (forum format & s/w), then to threaten antisocial behaviour by bumping said off topic thread in the wrong forum..(i think i captured that correctly)

hopefully a moderator will send this thread to the appropriate place..... quite frankly I think if you actually did have real concerns you simply would not be here posting.

The only antisocial thing in this thread is the software! Right now I am forced to use an out of date browser to quote you. Further this is a long standing problem that you may be interested to know goes back to the very beginning of this forum on the net.

This software is not the first software CW used for this forum. A few years ago it was changed to this which was an improvement in some ways but not in all. One big problem is searching that has not ever been solved.

Because CW has not updated this forum software new browser don't work well with it. Even if you think they do not all the features are supported by other new browsers. You can't know this because they don't show up on  browsers like Chrome or Opera. Even IE 9 doesn't work with this forum.

Besides an OP can change the topic of a thread if the want to.  But beyond that why are any of us opposed to the notion that a member is having a problems with this forum's software? If anyone is not bothered by it that is good for them but for many it is a standing issue that should be addressed by CW.

I place great value on this forum. I want to see it work as well as it can. If CW will upgrade or update it it will be a good thing for all members. I can see no useful objection to that idea.

oh c'mon John..thats a bit of hyperbole..lol.. I have never had any issues with this forum *software* ever..either IE8 or my current IE9.. and i am quoting you just fine :)

Glad you've calmed down Mystic ;).

Among all the forums i participate in, Cakewalk is the leader by a large head and shoulders in user community quality & participation and also company participation... They are here to make Sonar a better product... and while i can accept the forum software could be better it does not impact me one bit as is...
 
On a personal level I am simply not of the opinion that ranting gets results and is much more likely to deter an company participation and divert what may have been valid commentary into a discussion on delivery (and you can see i am not the only one in this thread who considered your approach "ill-advised")..
 
Other than that i simply observed your actions were inappropriate relative to the generally high quality of issue resolution here.. in delivery, placement and in context... no offense was intended so if any was perceived then i apologise... but i sure didnt need to calm down ;)

That's me told :).

Toast and coffee are essential day starters.

And, with a couple of dedicated web/forum/email dudes, the other parts of the business will improve. More happy users results in more sales via upgrades, and referrals.

CW: charge more than 100 bucs and hire a couple of web dudes.
