SI's JED and BLUE's CONTENT SUSPENSION ENDS
Hello Techriders I have ended my content suspension of SI. As you may have noticed I went over a little bit on the time of suspension. This was a business lesson to SI. When SI wronged me and suspended me for no reason (as I later proved to them), SI gave a date and a time when I could post again.
Since that time was not honored but several hours late, SI received a business lesson. "Do what you say and when you say you will do it". To drive home this point, I didn't post when I could of posted and then I prolonged my content suspension.
Part of the word content has to do with power and sometimes it is a good idea to remind those we entrust with power, who really has the power.
In each bad situation there is a lesson or two to be learned otherwise hard times are just that, hard times. SI I would hope, has learned several lessons and I hope they think of one of those lessons the next time they see a field of flowers. Content.
I have also learned some things, some good, some bad. The things that can be done better, I have notified GNET/SI management about. The good news is that AOL has a stone age system vs. SI when it comes to a pissed off customer. I've gone through both systems and know them well.
The other good news is Bryan B. This man is a true asset to SI, a problem solver and businessman, a person of his word. I believe that Bryan will make SI better than it was before.
There was a time not too long ago when you could do business with a hand shake, lawyers have made that a day gone by. Though unwise these days to do business with a hand shake, I would do so with Bryan.
The other good news is Jeff. Jeff understood what I was talking about RE: a field of flowers, perhaps because he understands the internet very well.
Jeff and Bryan both want to make SI a better place. I hope I have helped Jeff and Bryan to do this, that has been my motive. Though not a motive but a life style, I do not let myself or any other person be pushed around by a double standard.
This topic is now water under the dam, we lived it, we learned from it and now we move on. Water under the dam.
