    Disclaimer: MajorGeeks exists to help people out. We live for it. We love it. Occasionally we get emails from people who are either confused or have a problem and decide that their problem is OUR fault. Rather then ask for help, which we would gladly give, they opt to send off a well thought out email. This is one such example.....

    Email:
    YOUR WEB SITE SUCKS ALL IT DOES IS SEND ME IN CIRLES AND NEVER GETS ME TO A LINK TO DOWNLOAD THE SOFTWARE

    Response:
    Files are readily available. The fact that your browser may be hijacked, you have a virus or simply cant figure out your web browser does not mean WE suck.

    What's sad is the anger and hostility people are carrying around and have buried just under a thin layer -- and something like this exposes it....

    We should pity the "innocents" in their lives that bear the brunt of their anger on a daily basis.


    (AND what you guys have said is FUNNY too) :)

    Can we have a League Table please, these are getting better and better or worse and worse depending on perspective:D

    I reckon we could lighten MA's load and gain insight into the wider internet community, (and have loads of chuckle potential), if we could ask MA to post choice snippets.

    I know it's more work for MA, and we shouldn't mock the afflicted but ............



    ;) :cool: :D

    They say ignorance is bliss.
    This is the exception that proves the rule.
    I may have seen this person in another forum.

    Call me anal retentive. :rolleyes: Sure people may come in here with absolutely no clue as to what or how to work a computer, they are aggravated already. They may have been mislead by others as to certain programs and what they are used for. They trust no one ... (consider - hackers, trojans, viruses) and when someone tells them to do or use something they have been misconceived about, they lash out. Would it not be better to educate rather than ridicule? If they don't know where or how to download, would MG not have a better reputation for understanding and guiding?

    Something to consider next time you get a e-mail or response.

    Bah, now read my disclaimer. Maybe THEY should not lash out. You may not have noticed, but when your hostile towards people, they tend to respond in kind.

    Also note these are responses from people who leave no contact info in most cases. They are so sure they are right, and in most cases such cowards, they dont want to hear a response.

    jarcher I can't handle a title

    most people aren't ready to say "Hey, I am a dumbass." like I am.
    they are scared to admit it to themselves
    I see new post all the time stating that they have used this site forever and its their first post and ask for help
    so they are helped even though they have a basic knowledge of pertaining software
    (we = all of MG)
    others admit they need help but then don't act like it when they get it
    we don't know what they know, or what software they have unless we are told by them. . .and if one is getting run around in circles, there probably a reason. . .if they want help and don't do what is "suggested" by the member who is helping them
    then why ask for help. . .

    What they are doing is contacting US with an insult, then not giving us the courtesy to be able to respond and help. This IS our response.
