A Joke Is One Thing. Wink

But I must say true colors are showing.
I thought this forum was really going to go some place.
No, I won't name Names .. but I will say:
All you have to do is look at the Statistics Center: http://ddisoftware.com/tech/stats/

People are willing to learn and help .. but they won't Post if they feel they will be singled out or
it's a No No if they say they use a certain progam before they use Qimage.

You want people to think your the best .. I think it's time you act like your The Best!

Remember: Your way is not always the right way for the next person!

Hi YaMe, how are you doing?

Yes but look at the detail of those who post the most and work out the percentage of the posts that are helping users to solve problems or understand how to use DDI programs.
I think you'll find it's a very high proportion, even higher when you exclude the jokes  Grin

Hi Terry

I will say I enjoy reading all of your posts!
I think I could ask:
What type of grass should I use to plant on the roof of my house and you would have an answer for me Smiley Smiley
Not don't use grass use oats  Wink

My forum so I get the final say here.   Grin  I'm closing this thread as obviously there is nothing left of any value here.

Let me just say that every online forum has little cliques that have their own "agenda".  People like Fred, Terry, Brian, Eljae, Jeff, Dennis, and others tend to write posts that encourage and help others with questions the majority of the time.  Others (about three or four on this particular forum who shall go nameless) tend to want their voices to be louder than everyone else's and they think they are entitled to a direct line to Qimage development, bypassing most other "average" users.  They think they know best, their way is the right way, and they don't understand why I didn't implement some suggestion they made in 2007.  As a result, they tend to be negative most of the time and only pipe up to complain about something with just a few positives or helpful posts thrown in along the way as "bread crumbs".  It's OK that they are on a mission, but as I said before, my job is one of calibration and I'm the one who has to grease the squeaky wheels and factor in the "loud mouths" who think their way is the only way along with the consensus of the Qimage consortium as a whole: meaning your list of features may not have the same priority as the general Qimage user base.  And no, I'm not singling out Ernst as there are other even bigger "voices" here, nor am I saying nothing can be gained by persistent voices as Ernst (and Ray) have allowed me to find a bug in the test strips.  All I can say is, keep the faith, and let's move on.

When looking at someone's "stats" on this forum, better click on the poster's name and then click "Show Posts" to see what they are actually posting, whether they are helping out, just making suggestions, or always complaining about something.  That counts a lot more than the total number of posts!

Mike
