Simviation Forums

Pete, I wanted to suggest something that I think would be a great idea.

I think we should move the Payware Forum from the dark depths of the forum page, up a few notches and place it right above the

Thing is - it's free promotion for them - & they do zero for us ... I only have the forum to keep the payware posts out of the other forums ...

So what is the fee Pete? A case of single malt?

Oh I see. I did not look at it that way Pete.
Business is Business!  ;D

Oh well, for now I will try to keep the lanterns lit and the mice fed down there.

Thanks for listening!!

In essence I can see your reasoning Pete, and don't think I am being negative, as I am not at all, but as a hobbyist in the simmers area, I have come to the realization that I love payware (yes Dave its true ) for many reasons. The cost behind buying payware, is a low sum compared to my other hobbies. It might be free promotion for them in some respects, but it can also benefit Simviation in that like me I do what I can to promote Simviation at other sites and the 'family setting' that SimV seems to have compared to the rest of the forums I occasionally post on.  

I personally will buy payware that I find interesting, or is a model of something that I have wanted where the freeware is either not available, or not as close to real as I had hoped. I will buy it regardless of its promotion to a website, however if the payware sites promoted here, I would be even more inclined to purchase their product as it would benefit SimV even more than just people that post in the Payware forums can do.

The way I see it, is different than a business point of view. I know I do not run SimV so its not my call, but payware, freeware, its all the same with the exception of a few dollars involved out of my pocket. Some is good and some isn't on both sides of the coin.

And lastly choosing not to move the Payware forum up a little, is your decision, and I respect you for that, just wish it would move up a smidgeon since I tend to spend most of my time in the payware and payware screenshots forum

Respectfully,

Stephen

Do we have a rodent problem? Well then they must pray for mercy from...

Hey Mark, did you steal the cheese again. Templeton the Rat said he thought he saw you in the shadows stumbling around down there. I just went looking for you and saw a few empty beer bottles!  ::)

Those bozos want to support us they get support from us - if not they won't. Their loss - not ours - as always.

Mark, are you wearing your clown suit again?  ;D
