kdf - the sonos comment was facetious. as far as being helpful, I don't think it's a stretch to say that after the well-over-the-top antagonistic posts it's not at all unreasonable to say it's time that any right to expect help is forfeit. you're entitled to your opinion as are all the "helpers". however there are reasonable people having problems from whom attention is diverted to someone who is unworthy of continued assistance imo if not an outright troll. keep helping if you like, no skin off my back; I just say it's no longer help, it's masochism. maybe you think it shows the outside world "how helpful" the online Slim community is; I just think it shows immaturity (not personal, but in the generally accepted protocols for participating in an online forum, and perhaps in perspective on where to spend time). last, my comment regarding the thread was not directed to you, but to Slim. -- joncourage ------------------------------------------------------------------------ joncourage's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2837 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=23389 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
