General NTL rants............ - Page 2

...but nor is it an 'NTL are cr*p' site', though there are quite a few posters on this site who have that opinion. If it was, we wouldn't have so many NTL employees posting here in their own time to help people out - but NOT if you start out by implying that all NTL personnel are brainless geeks. (and no, I don't work for them, or have any connection).

It would appear that this is an NTL fansite then.........yes ?

This site has moved away from being just a rant site, but a site for constructive criticism, a place to seek help from others and a place where discussion of various topics is allowed between members. If you have got something constructive to say, lets hear it and lets have less of the sweeping statements which are causing offence to others. Thanks.

That's my point though. If you check about 7 posts back, you will see that I apologised for any offense that I may have inadvertantly caused. It would seem that some narrow-minded individuals missed it though.

Anyway, my problem continues and yet another avenue of enquiry has been exhausted.

I do not think starting on the wrong footing helped matters.... Even by creating the thread with the title... 'General ntl rant' it doesn't link it to a specific issue and given by the fact that you are new here - rant threads like this in the past have caused nothing but aggro and was one of the reasons we moved away from being purely a rant site and now people tend to avoid threads, specially with 'rant' in the title, because it gives an indication that all the poster wants to do is flame ntl rather than get their issue sorted and this is probably, again, why a thread like this has turned out the way it has.

No its just the fact you are moaning for moaning sake when you can get nothing better. If you are that outraged and upset complain about your phone line being too long or move house. Stop giving us ear ache with pointless posts.

I'd have asked him for the FQDN of each server that needs an upgrade

McNob · 12-01-2005, 20:04

He he, just start with ntlworld.com but then does the word "qualified" really belong in that title ?.......

Anyway, end of thread. I've learned my lesson. (I was a registered member of NTHW too....

)
