Just added a few points, feel free to change them back.

No way this article is neutral. It's more like an atvertisement converted to a wikipedia article.

edit: I've reverted the article to a few edits in the past. The article is much shorter now, but pretty much neutral. Cristan 20:38, 31 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

As a user of the software, I'm sympathetic to what the unregistered user was trying to do, but the mention of a project "currently" in operation by the company for its userbase has a certain timeliness that is inappropriate for an encyclopedic reference. Additional links added were also removed, as they can be accessed by navigating through the main site already listed. MDonfield 01:53, 8 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Other software articles are allowed to run at length on the projects they are used for. What is the basis for the notion that it is "inappropriate". Why is this article being allowed be the target of someone's petty grievances?

The accurate information that was here before should be restored. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.152.115.214 (talk) 17:34, 11 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

So what's up with the Dr. Mr. Esq. thing? Using all those titles is a little advert-like, and pretty presumptuous if you ask me Inigo07 (talk) 20:29, 21 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

So you've met Martin, then? :) JeffJonez (talk) 18:17, 22 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Nope. But as 3D animation is my profession, I've talked with colleagues about this program. It's supposed to be a joke and the sales hype from Hash is supposed to be ridiculous. Inigo07 (talk) 17:58, 30 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

A joke, I'll agree with. My school's 3D Animation courses use it, and I dropped a second quarter because the software was so horrible. I'll bet it was that sales hype that got the course provider to use the program in their educational materials. I personally don't think A:M is worth the $200 price tag. I'm probably violating TPGs here, aren't I? :) Tuvok[^T@lk/_Improve] 07:38, 31 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Ranting aside, I've found sources that indicate Mr. Hash is both a PhD and a Lawyer, but I've conceded that these honorifics aren't relevant. And yes, ranting about the quality of the software on it's talk page is off track. :) JeffJonez (talk) 04:30, 1 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I've noticed that other 3D app articles are allowed to run to extended length even though they have no more to reasonably cover in an encyclopedia article, but the Animation:Master article keeps getting chopped down to a few lines. The software is not a "joke", it is highly powerful and functional, regardless of the experience of some kid in a high school class who couldn't figure it out. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.152.114.156 (talk) 06:43, 11 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
