I really like it. You are helpful and fun and interesting and well-moderated and supportive and encouraging. Small enough that personalities shine, large enough to be interesting, with Daz moderation keeping things smooth and showing a genuine interest in customers as growing artists. Thank you all. You're a rare bunch.

I have to second this. I'm a member of a number of personal and professional online communities, and the interactions here are among the most supportive and helpful I've seen. I'm very happy to be a part of it!
Agreed. And let's not forget our very helpful mods who do such a great job.
I agree, the community here has invaluable knowledge. I think DAZ Studio is completely unusable and incomprehensible without the help from the forum members.
Sorry, this is not the DAZ Community, it's the DAZ Studio Interactive Manual.
hahaha!
I do agree that its been a great experience and no way would I have learned even half of what I know without the help I get here. And I've made some great friends as well!
Isn't that part of what a good community is supposed to do? ;)
The secret is Ninjas - getting rid of sources of fire that could lead to pointless flamewars.
But I have to agree - its a community that nurtures further growth. People asking newbie questions eventually grow and help others, answering more advanced ones as time passes.
I remember how I asked at the very beginning of my journey with 3D where to find the Parameter tab.... Now I help people locate it myself.
Sums up my experience. I like playing when I have time, but luckily the desktop is too big to throw against the wall.
I just helped somebody identify a product in a promo image. I just got here three months ago!
I follow a number of forums for different hobbies, and this one is one of the best. Very rare to have a flame war where the thread has to be locked. I still, at times, feel a little hesitant to ask questions because I don't always have time to wade through the pages and pages of search results, but it's generally a very positive experience (except where the jargon goes way over my head and I'm too embarressed to admit it
). I've even had the chance to help a couple times from the things I've learned, which is a great feeling!
I think the community should be mainly for solving problems and dealing with things that are not supposed to be covered by the manual. It's very rare I get questions about how to use the programs I write because I always include manuals or tooltips covering all features that are not intuitively obvious.
