wow you lot make me laugh, have your IQ's hit your shoe size? is it just your way of thinking thats warped?
affrodable boonex promised and affordable it is.
caltrade stop trying to compare a $100 license to a $1000 smartpro license, keep to the facts and these are the facts:
12 licenses for 1 year at $39 each = $468
new license for 13 months = $290
just how is that not more affordable?
old smartpro lifetime license = $998
new Dolphin lifetime license = $790
just how is that not more see more affordable?
5 old smartpro licenses = $4990
1 new smartpro license = $2900 (5 domains)
just how is that not more affordable?
now before you continue with your old woman act and gob off at people who did show their support, no matter how little it was, anyone who paid $20 or more for any license/contributation has been rewarded with a free life time license, not even limited to just one, but to one per domain you licensed.
you Caltrade have been here and done nothing but bitch like an old woman with her knickers in a twist for over a year and never given a cent of support. and now your pissed because you lost out on a freebie.
the only real people that could feel let down are infact the contributors, we have paid $100 per star per year per site, and now we will have to pay $290 per site per year.
but hey dont think we didnt know that the contributor star offered special offers like free licenses, because we did, thats why we paid, and we all knew that the specials were never going to be a permanent offer, thats the whole point of a special offer, it ends at some point or theres nothing special about it.
I have to agree. We are getting more goodies for the buck, than we were before. I've been reading these blog posts (and the comments) for a couple of months now. I'm super excited about version 7, and like to keep up-to-date.
It's one thing to be kicking yourself for not purchasing a $39 or $100 license when you had the chance. It's another thing to take it out on those who are working tirelessly to program this big project.
I'm grateful for purchasing when I did. It was announced a while ago see more that dolphin and ray would be combined into one. How do you expect that pricing structure to work?
I think it's more than fair. I suppose I would be kicking myself right now too, if I had waited for a freebie without purchasing a license.....but I dont think I would be expressing my frustration towards the bonnex team.
Sammie, eclectech99...thanks for the support and explanation. I'm with you - but you're missing one thing Sammie.... if you have existing multiple stars - you aren't hurt. You get an unlimited license for each star (membership)...we're not cutting you short. New sites - yes.... there will be no more contributor licenses.

I have neither of them and I COULDN'T buy anything even though I wanted. Not even the lousy 20 $ ...
So for those lucky ones who were able to buy contributor stars ... they get the benefit.
Others stay in the cold.
