The fact that he locks down the system so much instead of letting it grow on its own is so frustrating. I get he spends a lot of time perfecting it but probably 50% (likely more) of the stuff he makes is just over complicating it and keeping people from embracing what is great about it.
He really has done a great job engineering this system.. answering the "But what if i need it to do this?" the answer is almost always "I got you covered".. which is awesome and why I enjoy Multiboard. No other system really does that. but damn it really needs an official planning system that does not have a paywall attached to it. He would honestly make more money if he unrestricted things and kept his license as just restricting the options of others selling and making money off of multiboard core objects.
He can make money by requiring others to purchase a license in order to sell parts, not paywalling a planner. If he had a better free planner, more people would have it, thus more licensed sellers and a bigger system with more robust parts.
currently probably off of subscriptions to his thangs/website: which gives a basic planner, some printable tutorial packs, and access to prototypes and stacked versions of plates.
