It feels wrong to post many small threads instead of describing the whole problem in one thread, but I suppose it might be worth a try.

Of course, I really don't expect someone from Logitech answer a thread in the "General" section of the forum but I do expect them to answer stuff posted in the "Developers" section. Sometimes it really better to post a stupid answer like "We currently have no one that has the time to answer this, please get back in a few weeks" instead of just leaving the thread unanswered. This way the poster at least know that there is a reason why no one answers his/her questions instead of getting the feeling that no one is even reading his/hers thread. The Ubuntu community forum have handled this pretty good by making it easier to find unanswered threads and assigning some forum members with the responsibility to make sure everyone posting a new thread gets some kind of answer or indication where to search further for the information. (No I'm not a volunteer) It also has to be said that IMHO Logitech employees are often very good at giving feedback on things in the beta related forum sections. One thing that I've sometimes missed is a way to communicate with Logitech regarding non development stuff. For development stuff it's pretty clear that the "Developers" section should be used but for non developer stuff I currenlty have to use the "General" section where the posting easily could be lost among all the other thread. Some samples of this are questions/comments regarding the Logitech web site or the forum software/structure. mherger;449599 Wrote: > > I keep to skip threads based on their subjects after I've > found the first couple of postings unimportant or not interesting for > me. > You are not alone, I do the same kind of skipping. -- erland Erland Isaksson 'My homepage' (http://erland.isaksson.info) (Install my plugins through Extension Downloader) (Developer of 'TrackStat, SQLPlayList, DynamicPlayList, Custom Browse, Custom Scan, Custom Skip, Multi Library, Title Switcher and Database Query plugins' (http://wiki.erland.isaksson.info/index.php/Category:SlimServer)) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ erland's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3124 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=66745 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
