I hope you can substantiate this statement. Even though you put a
smiley at the end, I take offense to these types of messages on the
RB lists. It borders on slander.
I know we have completely lost our sense of humor in this country. I
didn't realize you guys had too.
No we haven't. But, as I just spent an agonizing three hour session
at work listening to an HR speaker talk about sensitivity of
individuals, I had to comment. Although I knew it was intended as a
joke, I felt it was inappropriate for this list for the following
reasons:
1. It was totally in poor taste to an honest response.
2. It might lead some people to believe that RS is using underhanded
methods. I know this wasn't intended but, if someone took the comment
seriously, it could.
3. It lowers the standards of responses on the lists. Take it off-
list to Starion if you must. As Marcus stated, it's "gutter trash".
4. The lists are for passing information about REALbasic and,
personally, I feel that this should be their focus. We get a bit OT
from time to time but this response honestly offended me.
Respectfully yours,
Terry Ford
