Dear Fellow Community Members,

I bought into this program in December 2007, I paid $1000 for the SmartPro package, I have invested $2400 repeatedly upgrading Mods, I have been robbed for $1200 by criminals passing themselves off as programmers at Expertzz, and my site is STILL not functioning well, BUT, ........I'm still here!

Eight months ago I was one of the worst critics of Boonex, and I complained and demanded many things from Andrew and his crew, the same way many of you new members are see more doing right now. I think they went home at night thanking God that old Juker didn't blast them again.

I'm going to give you my advice and you can take it or leave it. I am qualified to comment because I am on the board of directors of seven major corporations and I have been the C.E.O. of three of these. All of my businesses are successful and in the black.

At the heart of the problem is the fact that NONE of the Boonex leaders are Professional Businessmen...THEY ARE PROGRAMMERS! The way they are managing the business side of their enterprise is a disaster. They are excellent programmers and given the opportunity to do what they do best I can assure you that they are capable of producing the finest community software package ever. I think we all sense that and that's what keeps us hanging on.

But when it comes to public relations, customer support, product support, billing, and all of the other Front Office procedures they are like the blind leading the blind. I have come to love Andrew and his dear family, and I deeply respect the other members of his team but I wouldn't hire any of them to manage one of my businesses.

My advice to all of you folks is .... BE PATIENT! - I know a good thing when I see it even if it is a rough cut diamond. I think the day will come when Andrew will be able to hire a C.E.O. to stabalize his business dealings and I think we can all look forward to some fantastic software.

Regarding the obvious weaknesses in the current software: - We are temporarily linking to third party hosted Forums, Calendars, Photo Gallery, and other services until Boonex incorporates the features we need into their software. It's a bit expensive but we aren't continuously trying to "FIX" Dolphin.

For what it's worth I hope some of you are helped by my comments.
