Oh, sorry for misunderstanding you! So, thanks for your words.
Now you can come with Otto too if you want.

>If you re-read what I said, my main point is that it potentially stops "out of contract" StrataFrame users getting peer support i.e., support from other StrataFrame users. I understand if the StrataBoys themselves don't feel obliged to provide support to "out of contract" StrataFrame users on the forum - that's entirely their prerogative.

>>>I could understand the StrataBoys not wanting to directly provide "free support" but just because a user doesn't renew their subscription doesn't make them some form of pariah to the rest of the StrataFrame community. If I was an active member of the StrataFrame community and someone came to the forum for help, I wouldn't refuse my assistance just because they hadn't paid their subscription to StrataFrame. However, in that circumstance, I couldn't even do that because "out of contract" users couldn't even access the StrataFrame forum. Given that the StrataFrame community is mostly based around the StrataFrame forum, where would such an "out of contract" user go for community/peer support? It's not like they could get support on this board because there just isn't any significant StrataFrame user presence here - they are all on the StrataFrame forum! :) Just strikes me as an odd approach? (shrug)

What will happen is that you won't be able to download new releases, but I think this is pretty much standard everywhere. You can work with the version you bought without any time limit.
