What a surprise, loads of whining in the forums suggestion section from, of course, the newsgroups crew. Just for completeness of that newsgroups vibe there's even Carl Waring popping up making his pithy comments to defend his beloved VM.

They're obviously right at home trolling the staff with Waring trolling them back.

Carl aggravates the situation really. he was a right pain in the usenet groups. and now he's doing his thing on the forum.

Same could be said of all those that are finding fault for the sake of finding fault.

Rather than trying to be constructive it's lots of 'well isn't this rubbish' and 'don't like it'

There shouldn't be faults there to find though, if there wasn't any and sadly there are loads, then maybe these people wouldn't post about them.

Not only has the 'shinny new (and useless)' email platform been badly planned and executed, so has the forums.

Based on some of the comments on there I doubt that very much.

True, there are one or two people on there upset about the loss of support via the newsgroups who just want to moan, however there are plenty of genuine and valid complaints on there.

Re: [Merged] Technical Support via newsgroups is withdrawn.

There are a lot of people moaning for moanings sake... plus some people are just being rude for rudes sake... there is one VM staffer who responded to a question (in his or her own time) and was shot down in flames by the OP because it wasn't what he wanted to hear! Basically the OP wanted something from VM for nothing
