You win the award for the MOST schizoid posts!!!!!! I crown you Sybil.. you just earned it. Which issues are boring you exactly? Ever been checked for ADD? You can sure change your tune in 3 days. There have been about 5 or 6 issues discussed in the last week. Nothing new from the company of course. So we took some time for a history lesson. Get over it.

Hi s. martin, It is really disheartening to have to deal with all the babies on these threads. I can't believe how they trot off and start new threads if any intelligent issues are raised. Avoidance, denial, defensiveness, threatening tones, name calling, dirty e-mails, ect ect ect. I am starting to think that one can't really get anywhere on some of these threads anyway. You would think that people would welcome facts and honest opinion, but it's the 'ol strength in numbers pack mentality type of thing, and they all run off and hold each others hands and they all need each other to hold each other up. What ever happened to the standing tall way of doing things? I have learned so much in the time I have been involved with S.I. and I sometimes don't think it's worth my time to even argue with some of these yay-whos...
Oh well...Let them go...

s. martin, Why don't you just create a thread for the negatives of ADVR and let people reference it when and if they want to. That way this same old stuff won't have to be hashed and rehashed over and over again, but people can be made aware of your reservations with this company. It is not fruitful to keep going over and over and over these same arguments. It just creates a state of confusion and frenzy which in this case is counter productive. believe in hearing both sides of an argument, and not repressing or suppressing information that may be vital to someone's decision making process. But continually arguing over the same old issues over and over again is just not a good thing.
I guess I can say that I understand why people feel like starting new threads to clear the air, and the emotion, but I still think people should be benefited with knowing both the positive and negative aspects of a company. It's just that going over the same old stuff gets pretty painful after you've already had it impressed on you one hundred million times.
