OK HiTech, I'm sure I got it...
I believe I'm sure I got it...
I'm sure I believe I got it...
I know I think I got it...
I quess I got it...
Naaah, who am I kidding, I did not get it :p
You sound like my mother!

I agree this post doesn't belong to these boards, but I'm still sure mandoble's intention was not to blame HTC with THIS post.

I hope you american and british ppl do understand that rest of us, who's not speaking english as their mother language has different way to think word orders and we may have quite limited  vocabulary((sp?) straight from the dictionary (sp?) ;)). An expression could mean totally different for us than to you who has large vocabulary and probably more suitable word to express that particular thing.

ps. I'm not saying that this language thing could have affected mandoble's post, but this was just good place to say it.

He llegado tarde al Thread pero me he quedado frio.
Que falta de tacto y que soberbia, ¿no?.

Somebody is pissing outside of the pot. :(

Is it just me, or did this whole mess start when MANDOLBLE stated a solution for a problem that did not even exist in the first place?!?!?

I think it all started when MANDOBLE proposed changing the business model of HTC without fully understanding what their business model is.  

In truth, I'd say he was trying to be helpful, and I suspect he's been more than a little taken aback by the responce.  What was intended as a helpful suggestion has gotten him pilloried.

It has turned into a very nice birthday presant :rolleyes:

I understood what MANDOBLE was saying, even in his first post. I think HiTech and Pyro just took it the wrong way. I took his meaning to be that he was concerned what would happen to the development cycle of the game if HiTech were to be hit by a bus.

It'a legitimate concern, but not something that is any of our business.

what if mandoble gets hit by a bus?

we better get more mandoble's to be safe

so i've determined that if we rename the following players everything will be ok.


wilbuz=mandoble2
minus=mandoble3
lazs=mandoble4

this way we will always have somone named mandoble talking giberish.

This advice was obstensibly given out of concern.  If one were that concerned about our team, I'd think they'd make certain what we all do before suggesting that we need to hire somebody to do a job that is already is already staffed and done damn well.  I'm not trying to say it was intentional, I'm just pointing it out.

The fact is if the HTC team decides they have had enough then thats it for AH. Full stop.  It's their baby and their business how they run it.  I for 1 would take great exception if my customers told me how to run my business.  Thats the problem here, AH belongt to HTC we just pay for the right to play it.  It seems the some people seem to think that the operation of HTC is something they should have an input in.  It's all about boundaries and not going where your not welcome.  We can suggest how we would like the software to develop and HTC can choose to take that on board or not.  HTC has the job of running the show and continuing development, how they do that is their business.  

I can see where Hitech is coming from on this one.  

However I do know Mandoble would never deliberatly insult HTC, often we all say insulting things to one another, when we don't mean to insult.

I have noticed that with the years, whiners have become more stealthy in their craft.

They know that they will be instantly ridiculed and ignored when they moan about something, so they post something else with their whine cleverly hidden there somewhere.

In the case of Mandoble's post, he is just implying that HiTech should hire more people so they can hurry up and fix his precious LW rides, and finally fulfill his request to model the 109K.

Well, the fact is that this morning a friend on mine, project leader and the only main programmer for one of our SCADA projects left the company for some fundamented personal reasons. The software used in this particular project was known only by him and about 5 millon dollars are actually floating in the air.
