bryan, I'm gonna hold off on posting this message publiclly and give you the benefit of the doubt first.
While we have been exchanging numberous emails with in the group of <ISI gaurdians
It has appeared to me that this is little more than a ploy to passify those that are loyal to the Classic. Seems our comments for the most part have been ignored, and smoothed over with comments such as *not exactly*, and *better stuff*
If you have it in you to give me a straight answer, tell me straight up, when we click on our "subject marks" are we going to have to wait for the full page to load to see the subjects with new messages? I never got any type of response during those email exchanges which leads me to believe you're dodging the question.
I realize I am but one in the large membership, but if that is the case, and if the "Classic" is merely the Beta with the CLassic lkable stamped on it, count me out!
I don't know what novel ide4as gnet has/had when they bought Silicon Investor, but the fact is the quality of the site has gone down hill at an anstonishing speed. Whoever's brain child the Beta version is does not do a whole lot to enhance the users experience. At least thiose that were here before the GNET buyout. If you want to be done with us, those that mad3e SI the most visited investor chat room on the web, you had better let those powers that be at SI to listen to what those members have to say, and not just pass them off as minor complaining.
At this point, I'm just gonna sit on this reply to you and decide wheather to send it out publicly or send it via email to the gaurdians.
p.s. This last PM(which I'm responding to is smack with arrogance and total disreguard to those who have given much time to the preservation of the CLassic site.
Sincerely.
pps, are you trying to smoooth us over with some friendly talk? IMO, ot don't work with this bunch, we temd to call a spade a spade. Please reconcider the repercutions to your actions, |
