Interesting and true. We have had our main site running on AWW for quite a while, and really thought the script was good. I have even provided Nick a lot of ideas to add to the script over the time we have used it, including paying for a custom development of the external streaming videos feature that is now included in AWW. Even some of the little features like the whos online being in green to make it easier to read in the admin section came from me. I figured we had a pretty good working relationship and have even supported it to many of our adult webmaster friends. A LOT of people are watching the outcome of all this and it was a pretty vigous topic with our group while at internex culminating in the purchase of MAS. As good as a script may or may not be, it means nothing if you can not use it for the lack of it being finished and setup. Today is Jan 13th. the above "fucktrip" site was to be online, finalized and in use Dec 18th which did not happen. This part has already be hashed out and resolved with a refund so it's really beating a dead horse at this time. But it does also have to be said that it took the starting of this thread to finally get a reply back from AWW and the refund. (Also the templates for fucktrip where started and shown after this tread) Of course they are still not on the server or running, just pictures like nick has posted here. Which makes me also wonder why he he would take the time to post the pictures like the site was finished or something instead of finishing the job and getting the site running. Even bringing new attention to the tread seems odd to me since the work has not been finnished?? Weird.
So thats my 2 cents and really the last I want to post on the subject. I have spent the time and shared what has happened to us on this in hope that people make and informed judgement call before they jump into something.
