We at Prolific are VERY VERY careful of SPAM.

Our database contains the email addresses of everyone that has purchased the product online. So far, we have only sent one email notice, which was when the PC version had such a noticeable change that we felt all people would want to know.

When it comes to notifying the Mac community only, by sending an email to every Windows owner, that seems like SPAM to me. I realize that we want to get the message out, and that Mac owners want to be notified. But we think it is more considerate to use normal channels.

We start right here on Feldon’s Fan site. Then we will begin to notify many of the online sites, like versiontracker.

Keep in mind, this is Beta, and first release. We did not want to get the word out to EVERYONE. If there was a problem, we wanted to affect the least people possible.

However, things are looking good. So this coming week we will increase awareness.

Hopefully you respect our strong position on SPAM. We only wish others were as considerate.
