Want voice your concerns? Fine, you are entirely within your right to do so. But those two quotes goes beyond voicing concern and starts to speculater or even attack the development team's character, which is not fair and (especially the first one) not even true.

I really and truly wasn't going to post again in this thread since I said what I had to say. I didn't post when so many people don't understand the concept of alpha and beta so they feel free to make up their own meanings. If you put a pig in front of me and call it beef, is it beef? I think not. I believe in the concept of alpha and beta software and when someone tells me "it's beta", then I believe them.
I stick by what I wrote and am not launching a counter-attack. However, you tomwolf2008, are really out of line here. You quote me correctly in your first quote in the post above, however you chose to attribute the 2nd quote in your post above to me. Now, people will believe you because you said it and they don't know what everyone wrote (nor will they look and find out), so they trust you read the thread carefully and know of what you speak. However I did not say what is in the 2nd thing you quoted and never even came close to saying anything like that. It's a sneaky way to make a personal attack and it's a nice try guy, but I reread my post just to be sure (and you should have read the post) and nothing like that came off my fingertips and on to this forum.
I don't really care who agrees with me and who doesn't agree with me. I don't throw around terms lightly and I make sure I understand what I'm talking about when I use terms that have specific meanings in their field. Choose your words wisely and if you do so, you are covered against the misinformed and those that choose to be misinformed.
This is a dangerous place if you don't run with the pack and I guess I don't run very well with the pack. I could make an argument against pretty much everything that has been written in almost every post, but what's the point? A pig is a pig and a fish is a fish and a cow is a cow. If you can understand that concept it's not such a leap to understand that alpha is alpha and beta is beta if you understand what the terms mean in the world of professional software.
Good night and good luck.
