I personally feel 100% betrayed. There is no power behind any of allegorithmic's "reassurances" for this tragedy, because history has proven exactly what happens from here on. There are zero exceptions, none that I can recall that is...no examples of any softwares in the past "getting better" or "improving" after making this unwise move, all in the name of "it's for you dear customer and the benefit of what you love." All empty words like politics to flatter, smoke and mirrors to continue to misdirect, that's Adobe, always has been. This is truth raw, and I don't care if I'm the only one brave enough to voice it and take all the stones thrown from brainwashed slaves and fanboys. Allegorithmic, this is the absolute WORST move you could make guys no matter how to try to frame it and politician it...a very low blow to your customers, the name of loyalty, and all that is considered to be "integrity." I almost can't believe it, and the fact that I even can is sad. Rant over. 3D Coat get ready here I, and I'm sure many many more like me, come. Good-bye SP, we had a great thing going, you were amazing!
