Just posted a slow gps reminder to the SI Yahooers. Let's stay on top of this. If not, the problem will fall into the "black hole" and forever disappear without a trace (fix).

Yeah, I just looked and you've already got a reply -
sounds like you're on a nerve there...
Just my .02, if they'd have been a little more communicative that
they were working on it, I don't think it'd have got to this level of
turmoil - last I heard, one unofficial-but-yet-works-for-them gent
said "we on it" and another one said "I don't know when we'll get to it"
leaving me wondering who really knows.
I'm not so much unhappy with them or their product, but this crap
of having to ask questions on two "unofficial sites" seems kinda
mickey-mouse... I think if I want to know anything else I'll just start
calling their service line and see how that goes.
You get the same "round tuit" on the phone Jeff. On the phone, it just one on one. Got lots more hammers with the SI Yahooers. I agree, a little M i Ceeee
See you real soon. K e yyyyyyyyy.....WhY? Because we gotchya.... Mouse.
Can't do the yahoo thing from here, but since you brought it up. I've often wondered why the SI group was so heavily used by H'bird mfg folks, but yet is "unofficial". On top of it being a suck egg mule of a message board. It seems to me that if I was in H'bird shoes, I'd set up my own board on my website, line up some unpaid moderators and assign a couple of techs to monitor and report what's going on. Sure would go a long way to building brand loyalty and providing good support to the customers I would have worked so hard to win over in the first place.
I know of only one fishing related entity that has done this with any seriousness - BassCat Boats. If you want to kill some time, go to their website and check it out. Can you name any other manufacturer with a site like that and an owner - Rick Pierce - that'll jump in and help so often? As far as I know, it's self policing too. If you want to post on there that BCB stinks and has the worst boat on the market, you can - however, you'll have to deal with some rabbid BCB owners as a consequence, but the factory will let you go at it for all it's worth.....on their site......on their dime. Now THAT's standing behind your product IMO.
Dang nice boat too.
Wannabe...
HEY TOM - if you change yer handle to something sexy-female
sounding and better yet pretend to be from a European country,
they'll be a lot sweeter to ya over on the unofficial sites -
no emoticon here for how I'm rolling around in floor holding my sides...
Tom, I hope you can work on my ff if it messes up, cause I think I just
p'd in the chili with H'bird... probably refuse to work on it now :p
I doubt they post what I just told the Yahoos, but I believe it to be
truth. I still got my string and rock if all else fails - MARK TWAIN! :D
You try to be polite and meet folks half way, and well...
some folks you just can't talk to :eek:
Edit: well, by golly, they DID put it up, maybe it'll stay, maybe it won't, but
I ain't going back to look-see any more. Now I gotta worry about black limos
with Alabama plates fulla hitmen :D - If things like that worried me anyway.
Inspires me to write a piece titled "A Culture of Arrogance"
but, I've clogged up the board here with enough bs about "them"
Kinda makes me lose interest in all the work I was putting into
tweaking the things in...
Well,
If it is unofficial, then those HB guys sure are spending a lot of work hour time on the site...This way they (HB employees) can say anything they wish and get by without reprisals from Humminbird. I am sure this is encouraged by Humminbird. Hey, it is free tech support. No phone calls, etc.
Well, you see what I mean about the SI Cult amongst the SI Yahooers. Arrogant butts is right on.
I will stay on them. I sure don't care what they believe....They just delete my posts or ignore my questions. Crappie fishermen are idiots.....Ask them SI Yahooers. Cover their butts, that all that site is about.
They talk through their butts and out the side of their mouth. You see what I been saying?
They believe that Blue Screen devil is a God... They worship it and they want us to humble ourselves and give our tithes. It is a Cult.
