WHATS going on over at Streamlines? Since Matt seems to agree with me, I guess I wont get Banned for making a few comments here. FIRST and formost, I DO NOT like "bashing" vendors or anyone else for that matter, I am just very curious as to what tha hell are those guys thinking?? I have been watching SLI very close ever since they RE- opened there forum last year. If one reads there goals for 2008 you'll see VERY quick there NOT giving us half of what they said they would. Familey problems or not, this ISNT the way to run a business no matter how small. Alot of MSTS people fail to see the fine line between "gimmie pigs" and serious sims fans that just want to know WHEN a said product is due out. This smart assed answer from many "It'll be ready when its ready" is geting old and boring! That may fly for an individual thats working by himself on a freeware model but for a payware vendor to commit to realeasing said products over a specific time period does not! Whats worse, when people ask ligitamate questions about there routes, rolling stock, or engines, there ignored! This is ridiculas! If they are to the point where they ignore there own customers, WHATS the point of even staying in business? As much as I love SLI products, I cant say the same for the owners. All in all, it LOOKS to me like there going down the SAME road they did two years ago when the web-site was pretty much abandoned and just went to hell. Has anyone noticed they havent even posted any new repaints (freeware) since November 24??? Even the posts have slowed to a trickel due to what Im sure is general disgust with SLI and there actions. At one time, I had a contact that new alittle more on the "inside: of SLI than the average MSTS fan. This was several months ago and even at that time, it was SAID to be a mess! If anyone can add ANY insite as to WHAT is happening with them, I for one would sure like to hear it!
