Minor detail. :)

And I understand your frustration. We want this thing out too! We’ve just got a lot on our plate at the moment, most of which we can’t talk about due to NDAs and similar issues.

Alpha testing, Beta testing or not even finished the 1st draft. Throw us a bone, please.

Providing a release date, quite rightly, is not something you may want to do, but give us something/anything, a screen shot or two? An idea of which Month, Qtr, Year this may happen.

I for one at starting to doubt Ilium’s commitment and desire – and that’s from someone that has been loyal for many years and has ’til now been really happy with the great job you guys have done.

What I can tell you is that we ARE making a Mac version. If you can’t wait, however, we certainly understand.

Please, please, please tell me if I should bother waiting or should I go elsewhere?

I still don’t get how it has anything that sets it apart from Facebook anyway, but whatever.

I think it’s ridiculous that banks often will not accept a 15 character password.

I also had an issue with my web hosting company recently – where various actions failed (a new domain registration for example) because my password was too long (21 chars) – and never let me know they had failed.
