"I'll be the first to tell you guys when you have done a good thing...."
Guess they'll have to take your word for it as nothing like that has occured in all of your 9 posts.
"Did anyone try this on for size before sending it out."
Never! Good Cod you must be a n00b!
Here's the scoop. Take notes as I won't be repeating myself...
The main reason HTC even develops thier product is to create whines and complaints such as yours.
For each release all of them have to create bugs and faults which cause at least a BSOD for as many players as possible. However Skuzzy cannot program so he has to rely on pulling down or degrading the MA connection to get points for his efforts to matter.
After every patch all of HTC park thier white, pasty machievellian buttocks in the meeting room where they proceed to read these boards. They begin scoring each post for complaint credibilty, originality, utter lack of grace, absence of any sign of maturity but most of all for how many times "this sux/suxxors/bites/BLOWS!" will appear in a topic.
At the end a week the HTC employee with the fewest program compaints loses. That person then has to do all the others laundry, buy lunch every day and washall their cars once a week until the next patch.
