Yes I can see your post and I accept your apology. Thank you. More importantly as a general principle please understand going forward that this website has standards for participation, one of the most important being not to attack the personal integrity of other participants.
On your substantive point about acquiring and testing the software, let me reiterate to you: it's pointless protesting how they do business. That's their system. If you find it too awkward to work with, don't use it. If you still want to try it, go to a version of their website that works properly and follow their instructions. If you still aren't making progress, get in touch with them - most likely they will help you. It's really as simple as that, and I think we have now exhausted this aspect of the discussion.
Thanks for not closing the doors. Really appreciate that. I might be a Homer Simpson sometimes, but let me stress once again, it was not (meant as) a personal attack at you, I have just been seeing a trend in how bad practices are advocated in different areas on different boards on paid basis (Cui prodest? as you might know).
I do get your point regarding the business ways. However, I have tested the behavior at basiccolor.de both with English and Deutsch settings, the no-confirmation-email and no-way-to-create-an-account-by-yourself issues persist. Along with their less than superb localization I guess I prefer to not point them at the faults since they have to have it known from their own testing etc. I think that getting such a frustrating experience right before the start of any business relationship and demoing the product save for real work using it is enough to just not use it. It does not withdraw one's right to communicate the opinion publicly, however.
And I concur the discussion topic has exhausted.
Once again I am sorry for any words that could be interpreted as a personal attack.
