I forgot to answer these e-mails! I don't have any manifesto... I just want Blender's stack exchange style for Maya. Just a software related forum, with all those pros given in my first post. I think i should write the manifesto, which is the same I sent to you over here,I guess...
And to Justin, well. You are right, polling questions are not ok. I was writing as many questions as possible. It is easy to understand what this forum would talk about. It's easy. I just wrote those without having any clue of how that worked. I think It won't work at all. This way is really slow and discouraging. But we will still be there, waiting... I don't want to bother people... but how do you make people use a system they don't know, moreover, a system that gives no answers, with no PRO users except the users of stack overflow (so, programmers)... That's not the point. Thanks anyway! -- Lidia 2015-05-14 13:21 GMT+02:00 Anthony Tan <[email protected]>: > Do you have a board/wiki/redditsub/manifesto or something to roughly > flesh out what you're expecting to see on the maya.SE site, or are you > wanting to bash that out via the area51 proposal? > > On Thu, May 14, 2015, at 09:02 PM, Lidia Martinez wrote: > > Yeah.
