General Software Discussion / Re: End-user problems with Artplus Software
« Last post by mouser on December 15, 2007, 05:40 PM »I have some concerns about this section as well, and it was always clear that there was real potential for things like we see here in this thread.
And the point that this section could be used by people to make up stuff to attack the competition is troubling.
If this section gets out of hand we will have to reconsider it.. Right now it exists because the consensus of people on this forum seems to be that they want a place where they can talk about problems they have with companies, without it cluttering up the main sections of the forum. I don't really view the decision as one i should be making -- it's up to the people here whether they want such a section. As long as it remains generally civil I think it's ok. People do need a way to express their frustrations about companies, and warn their friends. If a company has a forum that is usually the best place -- if they don't then a forum like this is definitely needed.
As far as only allowing one side of the story -- I do think this thread shows that this is not the case. I would welcome both sides to comment on any complaints here (again, as long as they do it in a civil manner). I think it's always important for both sides to have their say.
