I've fired AT them. :)

Ultimately, if you don't like it that much, then go somewhere else. Kind of a no-brainer if you ask me. :wtf:

So, what's your point? You know how to fire employees that don't share your view points. Fire this.

I know you are pissed off with me for what I said yesterday. I know you are trying to push my buttons... :)
If I was pissed off, I wouldn't be responding to your messages. Besides, holding a grudge over shit that happens on the internet is beyond pointless. As long as it doesn't spill over into the technical side of the board, I don't care what anyone says here in the lounge (no matter how misguided it might be :) ).

The old design sucked. However, you have been looking at the old design for 11+ years. Change takes time but you have to start somewhere.

my point is if you're in the business of providing a service to users and have the attitude that their opinions about what you deliver mean nothing to you, you don't belong in the business.

no, if they don't know how to deal with a user properly they have no value to my enterprise, none.

He's the boss, he can do that (in most states). In California, he' have to present well-documented proof that the employee needed to be fired, which could take as long as a year, and potentially take his company down in the process. Then, he'd probably still have to pay his lawyers to fight the inevitable wrongful termination lawsuit... I believe the final note would be "yadda yadda yadda..."

When I first read this, I interpreted "users" as drug addicts... :laugh:
The United States invariably does the right thing, after having exhausted every other alternative. -Winston Churchill America is the only country that went from barbarism to decadence without civilization in between. -Oscar Wilde Wow, even the French showed a little more spine than that before they got their sh*t pushed in.[^] -Colin Mullikin
CP users - drug addicts. Seems not to far away to me. I'm getting my fix at the moment. :rolleyes:

The 1 user complaints are usually from the most powerful and important users and always get fixed. Whereas multi-user complaints are usually from the less powerful so don't need to be fixed.

Might help to set priorities though. If 50 people don't like A and 1 person doesn't like B then A might be a better choice to work on than B.

I haven't seen anything here that would suggest that people are not allowed to express opinions.

"Sound like"? We are users, which is why we should provide detailed information about what we do and don't like, for the hamsters to assess and make decisions on. That's what my users do, and I'm always happy to receive such input. Moaning and griping, and just saying "I don't like it!" without giving specific details that can be used by the hamster support department is a waste of time, but stating "I don't like this, and this is why" or "I'd prefer this" can only be helpful. The fun bit about it being a web app is that we get to watch it evolve and change in real time. That's cool, and worth a bit of iffiness.

Maybe I should quit based on what you have said. I will put my house, cabin, boat, cars, and all my other expensive toys out on the market for sale because I am obviously in the wrong business. You are a developer first, a user second. Quit acting like a user. ;)
