A little Rant

I seldom ask questions on WF, but when I do I think I post a very clear and understandable question relating to Marketing.

What gets me is when people just ping pong comments and not address the question.

If you don't know the answer, go on to the next thread. I'm trying to find answers and time is money.

      SPLORF!

      That was funny Frank!

      The off topic really isn't the place to gripe about people going off topic with posts, lol!

        You mean like you did in the thread by Jim Straw? The thread was bumped to honor Jim's passing - and you decided to complain about the subject line and ignore the message. ping-pong

          Holy cow - when did Jim die? I didn't know about that (missed the thread). That's really a shocker.

    So what WAS that question? I often get complaints about going off topic, etc... but I usually DO answer or help.

        Interesting thread.

        Interesting - make an unnecessary post to complain about unnecessary posts. If time is so important then you wouldn't have posted this seems to me.

        Interesting - coming to a free forum, asking for free help, then complaining when the free answers don't come as intended.

        Interesting - telling people to move along if they don't quickly and properly meet your needs. Maybe you can move along to the next topic where someone isn't ping ponging.

        No negativity intended towards the OP on my part. Just interesting what people expect for free.

    The current price of tea in China is: ¥ 28061.4/pallet.
    with a max bid of ... 28130.67 not to be confused with a butterfly's wings flapping in China. This price is scientifically derived from numbers only tangentially related to the actual price of tea in China, which is profoundly more accurate than actual prices paid for tea in China. How this affects you, your child, or an acquaintance is derived, again, scientifically, by a patent-pending method . It has little to nothing to do with the technology behind the magic eight ball.

    The answers in this thread are a big part of why the Off Topic area is one of my favorite places in the WF.

    To get this thread back on track though, here's what the OP can do when he's not getting the kind of answers he wants:

    I hope that helps. :rolleyes:
