Actually Quest is free. And Quest Pro is a $19.95 program.

Actually, I think 20 dollars (US) is pretty cheap. Especially considering all the time Alex has spent on Quest over the years. Not to mention the fact that he also provides a forum where we game programmers can boot-strap with the developer to continually improve Quest Pro program code as well as get continually updated functionality. Talk is cheap. Programming is usually not cheap, except in this case where you have a guy that obviously loves his work.

Sure, VB isn't anything to dance around the room for - but it's very versatile and powerful for what it is.

The program Alex has developed is also very extensive... I can't imagine creating such a big program myself - but then again he has spent alot of time on it (which I haven't done on ANY of my stuff).

$20 isn't too much.

What a w*nka! I'd like to see "Jakk" create such a powerful and complex program such as Quest! >:(

The answer is simple Jakk, if you think it is sh*te, then dont buy it. Stop coming here and griefing a program we love and would pay for. Think of the work Alex has put into creating it, maintaining the site, and replying to all of our questions and queries. I bet if you had his job you couldn't handle it for an hour. If you dont improve your ways i think you are going to be a very disliked member of the forums.

Listen, i was furious at the time and my words were totally unacceptable, i have sent another email to Alex begging for forgiveness. So lay off.
And im bound to be an ape of a man, after all, our descendants are apes, but i didnt expect such a small un-interlectuall brain like yours to understand.

hahahaha.... This is so much funnier since it came from you : )
I'm probably "smarter" then they are - but they know more about their specialist subject then me - and I know the proof and believe it myself.
You'd be an idiot to think it wasn't true... Are you still thinking the world is flat?

The forum software doesn't allow me to close threads - but guys, could you have any further debates on the subjects of evolution, forms of knowledge and the nature of truth in the Games and Chat forum please! :)
