I think Boonex should take word-press or joomla as an example how things are done. Guess what? They all have food on the table and deliver rocking CMS scripts. Friendly support. I only needed it once out of around 20 sites I made with joomla. Over 50 modules, over 50 plug-ins and extensions, so triple the features from Dolphin and never, never ever had any issues with upgrades. Just 2 or 3 times with a 3rd party extension.

Boonex needs to think over it's strategies and concepts so that updates see more and repairs work smoothly (probably gradually smaller upgrades at a time).

You can extent community builder with almost any features you want. The sky is the limit and it works smoothly. The same for virtue-mart with joomla.

I do understand people when they get fed up with the way it is.

On my site too, it seems as if scripts becoming ghosts and act themselves. I never had that with joomla. The maximum problem I had altogether were table repairs which is just a mouse click and everything was put into the right place again.

Sorry to say that, but joomla is built to serve communities and Dolphin it seems to milk cows.
