i think we need a new, realistic timeline for the project. honestly, it might just make sense to get opt outs for this because having to wait until 2021 for this keyboard just seems unreasonable for me, as a batch 4 participant.
I'll make a new realistic timeline when I receive batch 2. Definitely no where near 2021. I cannot afford opt outs, sorry.
Quite honestly this is getting a little out of hand and ridiculous. I think the majority of us have been patient and understanding but without anyone really speaking up, it's like a free pass to delay and start up other projects (XRF? Evija?) I understand manufacturers have queues and colors require testing/QC but this is a bit much. So i'm totally on board for the idea of opt outs as well.
Also just to point out - Polycarbonate wrist rests were delivered to you in December of 2018. It wasn't until 8 months later in August 2019 that you decide to let us know that only 10 out of 40 were good? 8 months for that? Really? I think that speaks for itself...
Caveat emptor tho right?
Yes I do choose to do other projects, simply because they do not delay this. It's clear you follow what I do, so it'd be ignorant to ignore those projects I've started and finished (maybe not completely follow as I haven't started Evija). It's a massive mental burden to have this, there is no free pass at all. I'm dedicated to finishing this despite the time & cost. If that isn't clear now then I'm not sure what else I can do immediately.
I've made a lot of mistakes sadly, but I can learn from them and my goal right now is to deliver flawless keyboard kits. I'd say I'm finally on track quality wise. And aside from this, I'd say timeframe has improved a lot. Still plenty of room for growth though.
P.S. It'd be nice if you used your main. You're talking facts (ignoring Evija), so I'm not sure what you have to lose.
I reluctantly have to agree with this. As much as I want to wait, it's really hard not to get frustrated or disheartened by the fact that by our current trajectory, we have to wait two years for these boards. Also, out of curiosity, is this officially the longest gb for a kb yet?
Please see my comments. I know it's disappointing but yeah.. not much else to say really.
Not the longest, although I do wish those with longer the best in getting it sorted. When stuff goes wrong, GB runners get a lot of **** (which is fine considering we take peoples money), but unfortunately there isn't really a separation of those trying and those not.
