This gives rise to two things, first of all a perception that there is a problem with something when there might not be, it could just be down to the numpty at the end of the spanner/keyboard and unfortunately you see very few posts on forums going 'You know I said this.. well I was a complete cock and I was wrong I wish to appologise'
And secondly it gives every Tom Dick and Harry who may have had or heard on the grape vine of others with issues the opportunity to come onto the post and slag off said supplier.
Its even worse if the supplier doesnt use the forum in question as they have no opportunity to reply with the correct answer or the actual chain of events.
I once found we got slagged on a Morris Minor forum and we dont even use that forum or supply parts for Morris Minors but because our name got mentioned for a custom propshaft someone with a small penis from scotland decided it was an opportunity to slag us and it did cost me some business.
your case is well argue'd, so it is up to the pf jury to decide if you are or aren't builty of the following:
anti-chip
anti-emerald
anti-ford
anti-pf
anti-secretary
anti-persperant
anti-inflamatory
anti-some other charge people will make up just to get their name into this thread without adding anything of any practical use to the debate
personally, while i thin the points you raise are vaild, i think you have wandered off on a slight tanget to what chip is asking
it's like asking for help with some microsoft office product on here and being told to ask the microsoft helpdesk
you will get an "official" answer from the helpdesk, but it may be a lengthy phone call where you will tell them what you need to know
or you ask here, where someone will probably answer the question in 5 milliseconds
