Re: After a year has perception of FCPX changed?

Poppycock.

I read what you wrote. I asked polite questions intended to uncover your concerns and address the issues you brought up.

I was respectful and polite about everything you wrote indicating how I saw things differently, but not saying a word about you - until you devolved into what I felt was an insupportably snarky attack on Mr. Ubillos's competency as a programmer. And even in doing that, I cited the reasoning I used to form my opinion.

But here you go again, resorting to personal attacks and deeming those of us in disagreement as "sad."

Not to tax your ability to reason too much, but EVERYONE on the planet sees things from their own perspective. It's the only one any of us have.

And if I'd "assumed you were stupid" I wouldn't have wasted my time responding to your post point by point.

At the base, I agree with Jeremy.

If you have something to say about the software - say it.

To the extent you feel compelled to continue as above with overt attacks on the people here - I'd politely advise you to put a sock in it. This board is not about who's "likable" or not. (If that's a persons primary focus, they have a zillion hours of reality TV to wallow in that covers that ground relentlessly)

This is a place where people come to debate whether a particular piece of software can help them get their work done - and I'm not getting a sense that you can argue those merits very comfortably since you keep diverting your posts away from facts and features and into personality issues.

And finally, not sad at all. Quite happy. I have great new software to explore that's making my editing life easier. So I'm struggle free and good to go. You - apparently not so much.
