Actually, PowerFX had some of my favorite English voicebanks and I always thought they had a better vocal slection. I hope they will return to the Vocaloid bowl, but that seems very unlikely.

I just think that no matter what came of the whole Ruby fiasco, it gave PowerFX a stinky reputation, and that's not cool with me. I don't think it's fair for the fans to point fingers solely at the company for not handling the situation better. This is an entitled opinion for a fandom to have. The company, much less developers don't own the fans personally for anything. It would be nice if they were all so very professional and polite like AHS all the time, but in the end, they are different people. Take Giuseppe, it's possible they can be driven to a point where they willl exchange harsh word for harsh word with the fans. In the end, PowerFX was just trying to sell their product, and for their troubles, they were getting death threats over a design  for alleged racism based on hearsay of the voice provider (who said they white washed Ruby's design). The PowerFX proposed design was not pretty, but it's a leap to assume it was done out of racism against colored people. Some people in the fandom seem to thrive off of negative drama, and enjoys blowing things out of proportion. I'm not saying anyone here actually participated in that drama, but I cringe when I see PowerFX bashing.

I disagree with this general attitude, blaming the victims of the whole situation and saying that they brought it on themselves because of the way they framed it, or whatever. This is just wrong.

I'd like to hold the quality of our conversations here on the Wiki to a higher standard than something like VO and I'm sure you guys do too.
