[QUOTE="Roudi, post: 3150061, member: 12423"] It makes sense, but it's awfully idyllic and unfeasable. Besides, have you ever worked in customer service? I'm sure you've at least some experience, to suggest that particular idea, but if not... well, dealing with a lot of people in a somewhat live environment can be very draining. You will get customers who are very interested in trying your product. You will also get idiots who have no desire at all to try anything you have to offer and simply want to annoy you. You will get customers who have no idea what they are doing, no matter how well you explain it to them. You will get customers whose only purpose is to complain to you about anything they can. Deal with enough of them in a day, and I think you will be regretting your demo model. Besides, this "live demo" model you propose is already feasible. Just provide a form of contact with your product description and set up an IRC chat room (or some other form of chat). Or, as you mention, arrange a meet with the customer. If you really think that is a superior form of marketing, then don't wait for OBS to implement it for you. You have the resources to do it yourself right now! If you do so, and make it successful, maybe that will convince OBS to incorporate features to encourage that kind of marketing. But they will only do so if someone shows them it can work. So, stop complaining about how OBS doesn't do things your way, and [b]do things your way.[/b] [/QUOTE]
