Morning all .....

Well the writing was on the wall that Invision would eventually go for commercial status, and l don't blame them for that at all, it's a great product and they need the revenue to continue development of the BB and other related bits and pieces.

Invision Management, (Matt and Lindy it would appear), leaves a lot to be desired imho.

The decision to go fully commercial was made at the wrong time, they did not respect their installed base, with the announcement on 2.0 final release. That one should have been left as a "trial edition", and the announcement made for 2.0.1. This would have saved a lot of people's bacon. There's some dire situations out there currently, and Invision have really damaged their reputations with this.

Recent actions by Invision management have left me 1. not trusting them 2. really concerned for the future of the company. It would appear the wrong people have taken charge of the ship, and that ship is traveling on rough seas with a reef just ahead.

For anyone currently using Invision Forum software we are offering a complete support community at Invision Resource Center which is the official free resource site for Invision Internet Services. (Sorry had to get the plug in, and you may want to check out nominations for site of the month, as l believe a certain emoticon site has been nominated).

We are currently trying to negotiate on 1.3.1 of invision as imho that has been the best release yet, and l do believe our parent site (Invision Internet Services), will be able to supply it.

Thanks for your time.....
