Naturally your post jumps to the assumption that every single fucking website out there has it wrong, is not giving its customers what they want, blah blah blah. Then again I suppose sites such as FTV, twistys, azani, etc. are still also getting it all wrong and do not need such tools. There are of course hundreds of such sites out there giving their customers what they want and doing damn well at what they do. - However fuck them right, TMM should stop trying to innovate their product because so many are not giving the customer what they want. Thus do the very thing to their customers that you are bitching about in the first place.
On another note yet off topic of the thread itself yet not of your reply. It makes perfect sense for many to pay more for a CMS to run their members area as it gives them not only data about their customers, it gives them interaction, provides the customers with more, and we all know that it is much easier to keep a customer than get a new one. Knowing what your customers like, what they are viewing, clicking, etc. helps everyone out - assuming they use the data.
PS - I heard a rumor that you were not posting here any longer out of sickness, guess someone fibbed to me.

They need to adapt the existing program to make it easier and better, not try to sell something that looks like it's harder. Will they upgrade for free? But as you said they are a software company and that's how they make their money. Does it bring more money into the pot for all of us if we all upgrade to NATS 4?
As for the stupid, yes stupid statement of quoting a few companies who have it right and assume all is well. I thought you had more sense than that. Clearly I was wrong.
Or are you saying people are going to Tubes sites because paysites are a better option? All sites should aspire to get to the level of FTV, Twistys, Sapphic and more. The problem is too few do. They spend too much on driving around a reluctant buyer to sites he's seen a thousand time before. This industry needs to spend more money on what customers buy and less on driving them around.
The rumor was I would post less. Accuracy never was your forte. I have just come home from hospital where I was having 6 days chemo therapy for cancer in the tongue. I was able to come home during the day and about all I can do is post on boards. Sparring with guys like you does not require a lot of energy.
