Topic: Solidoodle Article-Bad news

Most of this is based on information from these forums, but wanted to pass on the information.

Re: Solidoodle Article-Bad news

It is a very sad time for sure.
I would like to point out that the article mentions crowd funding to bail itself out. Isn't that essentially what they are doing with their current sales, though? In essence, "We will take your money for our bills. If we have a printer laying about, we will ship it. If not, consider your transaction as a stretch goal." Seems like they should pay more attention to Soliforum since we are their target audience, speak with the vets around here, and develop new/resurrect great models and completely revamp their customer interaction protocol.

I genuinely hope they can learn from their mistakes and turn this around.

MEH...

That article is a real piece of work. Glad to see another site basically re-writes information that was posted here first and then directs users to there own forum without citing the original source.

What a joke the internet has become...

I didn't think it was that bad for "internet journalism". smile  They link to their source, a reddit post which links to the original Soliforum post. They also mention and link to Soliforum and have the logo in the article. True, they don't really add anything but if Solidoodle is still taking orders, the more coverage the better.

So 3dpb thinks they are the Solidoodle Problem forum, huh? Hell, if we'd known that we could ALL take our problems to them!
