Shannon's Journal Discussion

[DarthXedonias]

I feel kinda of let down their won't be anymore open beta testing after the DMSI series is done but I freely understand why. I admit, I haven't been the "best" tester as far as reporting mostly because I've only felt like reporting when theres something noticeable that happens or offering suggestions about how it might be made better in a few different threads. The thing though is, and why I can understand why there won't be anymore beta testing, that it seems like almost daily when I've logged on the forums all I see is people (Mind my language) "B!tching and complaining" about DMSI not working or that this version isn't as good as other versions. I admit myself that I didn't get as much external results from 2.2 as 2.1 (though the internal results were pretty good) but at the same time people have to realize this is called "Beta testing" for a reason. We test it, if theres a problem we then give constructive criticism to Shannon, and then he goes and fix/upgrades it when he has the time to. That way different from what we've seen lately where people are constantly complaining about not seeing results and not offering any suggestions whatsoever. If you want results right away the easiest thing to do would be to not buy the beta test version and then wait til the final proven version comes out so you can be sure your getting your moneys worth. If not then stop complaining and actually offer suggestions on how to make it better.

For example, I've seen that Steven hasn't gotten the results he wanted but instead of complaining constantly I see him constantly offering suggestions and ideas on how to make it work better.

Anyway, that's all I have to say on this. Less complaining, more ideas and suggestions.
