Perry:
Ok, I can understand that, if it's the case. Then I would ask Pierre [I am
assuming Pierre indeed does have a working Beta version of TS 5...I'm willing to
give him the benefit of the doubt about that] to delete the posts other people
make revealing what they think they have learned about the product and stop
littering the list with all these personal attacks on people that are actually
trying to share information with people that are interested. Pierre did not
attack the information that was posted here--And by the way, the information was
not posted by Earl originally, but by a different person that was seemed to be
quoting someone else--Pierre took the opportunity to again make more personal
attacks on someone.
He could have either deleted the post and shook his head, or made an innocent
post stating that he could not reveal any information about the current Beta
version but in his experience, he does not agree with the information. But then,
Pierre is constantly telling us about the Beta version he has that does not have
all the features enabled. So he isn't doing a good job hiding behind a claim of
an agreement with Omega.
Folks were just passing out information. That doesn't call for personal attacks
from the mad frog physics tester or the etched-silicone featured man. If you
have something to add, add it. If you want to take a swipe at someone because
your bored, go do it elsewhere, please.
Best,
Tim Morge
