The Google thing – not discussed here?! [CLOSED]

  • Since ‘we’ are not allowed to post anything about the Google/Link thingy – please point me to an URL, forum or whatever where I can participate in this.

    This is a VERY bad way to handle this. VERY bad.

    Reminds too much of old politb??ro tactics. I also find the whole ‘Matt is out of the country’ story a lame excuse. I guess we here in Europe have no internet, no internet cafes and don’t allow strangers to use our PCs?

    No press release. No statement on the dev blog. No word on the homepage. Threads like this one get deleted/closed (talking to you podz).

    If you want to form a community and make it grow – then let is also share the tough stuff. If there is a problem – you get flamed one way or the other. BUT DO STAND UP TO IT.

    As bloggers we all know that you can’t contain such a thing – it spreads like fire (and you even developed the software for it). So let’s be real bloggers, bitch, rant, flame and blame it out.

    Earn your respects by being open about it – not by stonewalling.

    Thanks.

  • Yeah, amazing that people register here today just to comment here and nowhere else….

    Perhaps WP could take up something like this.

    I figure everyone needed a laugh!

    @johnmuller:

    heh I said they say they don’t want to eat there and they talk about it a lot. I’m not sure that very many of them actually have the willpower not to go in and have a meal. I find that a lot of issues that my fellow Americans tend to gossip about tend to go without any action taken. I’d still imagine that Wendy’s felt a bit of pain off the whole incident, and some of that pain is more likely to be longterm reputation. Dave was all about reputation. Did anybody wonder why the burgers are square? I’ve heard (and trust somewhat) that Dave was told never to cut corners. A cute story, but I think that the goal of having a good image is an excellent thing to strive for. Of course, it’s impossible to please everybody, and Wendy’s is another American fast food joint that suffers from quality that plauges nearly every fast food joint we have.

    Oh jeez MDV, you HAD to post that one, didn’t you? *sigh*

    Well….April Fools day is not too far away.

    Looks like April Fools Day is already here. Much ado about nothing….sheesh! Link, schmink, who really has nothing better to care about?

    I prefer to call it “The Wild Hunt”…. but yes, jenn, you are quite right.

    Must not be anything around to get assed over, hmmm?

    Where was the outrage when this issue first surfced. It was pretty apparent what the intent was when it arose the first time…sure the thread was closed, but not deleted. If it was THAT big of an issue, this would have happened then.

    It only happens because someone posts something that shows up in the dashboard and people come out the woodworks to jump on a soapbox.

    If you REALLY cared about the community, you would have been spending some time here, seen the original thread, and caused an uproar then.

    I’m sorry, but this is just too funny. It reads like a bad script for a fight between the Bloods & the Crips…. You killed my brutha, I gonna kill yours. Damng, you shot my bro, now I gotta shoot your cuz,….. and it escalates…..

    For those that missed it, Matt responded in this thread: https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic.php?id=23657

    @philpeeps The topic was LOCKED so no one could respond.

    but if I am correct, the forum or your blogs were not closed since late February when this topic surfaced…right?
