Stockholders meeting
« on: November 06, 2005, 08:43:24 PM »
Beating the "I can't get on" horse......
     Dear HT,
            Seems we having some trouble logging on this evening.
     This isnt the first time. Computers and the internet are very complicated. Any thinking person well admit that right off the bat.
     It is also held as common knowledge that you have a very smart group of people working with you.


      That having been said, I would like to know where I can go in the BB's to get an explaination of why this happens and at least a general over view of your plans to fix it. If there is not a location in the very well layed out homepage, I would also like to know why?
       I mentioned being a stockholder is AH in my subject header and to one degree or another I feel that to be the case. I dont think a thread from you to adress an issue of this size(It affects everperson who is now or will be in 2 weeks, sending you $15 dollars a month) is asking to much.
      The drum is beat loud enough when you have a new patch or plane coming out. We are all grown ups (for the most part). And im sure we could understand the tech aspect of any explaination you might can offer.

    Please no more planes or frilly clouds, no more memory eating grafics fluff,  till we have an answer to this issue........................ ...                     with respect,   JB18

You pay for a monthly service to connect. The 14.95 is in no way an investment made by you to HTC & Co. When you stop paying 14.95 a month, they stop service.

As for the internet, servers, routers, hubs and the like... Do you honestly think HTC can be or should be held liable for 3-4 hours of interuption in your service to use their product? They have absolutely no control over some things, and when they do go down, as they have tonight, they get up out of bed to rectify the situation.

This does not happen on such a frequent basis that its even worth mentioning.

Well while I don't consider myself a stockholder, I am curious as to what happened. Hardware failure, software failure, AT&T screwup, power go down at HTC?

Inquiring minds want to know.

On a positive note: WTFG HTC and crew for getting the problem fixed as quickly as you did. Late Sunday night problem and it was fixed in a couple of hours. Not many companies I know of that would run in on a Sunday night to do that. Most would have let it sit until normal buisiness hours Monday morning. BIG guys, and thanks for all you do.

Well ...... Do you guys Have a job? And if so don't you have bad days ..... or maybe the product isn't the BEST or the WAY everyone wants it all the time. I can't get 5 Gal. of Gas for 14.95. Get a grip sometimes there are more then 500 people logged on at once. Not a bad day. Yes I had trouble Sunday getting on after all day with the family. And Yes I wasn't happy. GET OVER IT. If you dont like it dont PAY. And if you think you can do a better job Then Apply for a JOB DOING IT. And if you are DOING IT then you know it aint Easy. Oh and if you don't have a JOB  GET ONE :aok

Agreed.

No need to make a fuss about being an equitable owner or wanting $0.25 off one's monthly subscription rate because of the outage.  But it WOULD be nice to have a line or two saying something like "This is what happened, trying to fix it, suck it up."
