Topic: Augi In Memoriam

[mjfarrell]

The Swamp is great but focuses mostly on customization and tweaking.  AUGI provided a much more user-centric forum for solving day-to-day questions.  Collectively we just went from standing on a mountain to standing on a molehill.

Au contraire


In my opinion The Swamp takes all users and all questions and gives them equal relevance or irrelevance depending on their nature.
The difference being that one would need to acquire a certain level of expertise, and experience to ever find oneself lost in the swamp.

Augi did not provide it, per se, its members did. The knowledge base is fluid, not tied to "augi". If those same people decide to go somewhere else (CADTutor, or the Swamp for example) to share the knowledge, then that becomes the new "user-centric forum for solving day-to-day questions". Just my 2¢

Honestly, I used Augi quite a bit too, for different situations than here though. As a result of this, I will probably not be using Augi all that often anymore, as the information is simply no longer there.

[JohnK]

Because of the disrespect I'm seeing. I wont answer now because i need to cool down but all I'm seeing is people coming into someones house saying stuff like: "Its a nice house but..." or "I miss my old house..." or etc. etc..

I was on AUGI primarily for the Revit support (MEP & Structural).  Nobody uses AutoCAD anymore so....

Hey, some of us are still back here starting our fire with sticks.  I don't want to hear about your dang matches and fuel lighters.

I'm not sure what you expected. People who were previously not "swampers" are going to start heading over here unless the old Augi forums are restored very soon. Of course some are going to say I don't like this or that, they just had the rug pulled out from under them and the Swamp is a tad different. They will either get used to it, or go somewhere else - as I suspect many Autodesk Forum people did when they changed to their current format. It will be OK...

Seriously John? You're reading way too much into that comment, taking it way too personal. Let me send you a coffee and a box of timbits.
