CompuServe Messages

<<Try this mental exercise though – imagine your msg has been deleted after you criticized ADESK – then read your msg to me in that light – doesn't it seem to say "SHUT UP"? OK – so I misinterpreted it – electronic communication still lags far behind face-to-face. >> For the record, we NEVER delete messages. We only move them to section 0 (closed from the general public). In section 0 the sender and intended recipient can still get access to the messages. Yes, I agree, e-mail can be much easier to misinterpret. That is why we try to tell people to count to ten and re-read their messages, and not to assume implications from e-mail. <<I do feel though, that my original msg was appropriate… I didn't expect and I was very surprised to be told to go somewhere else to discuss this.>> Never said it wasn't. It is appropriate. I've never said don't discuss it. Of course it affects us. However, this is not where the big discussions are happening. Over on ACAD, even the people who make the decisions were getting into the conversation. So naturally, if someone starts talking about the same topic, I am going to point them over to that forum. I think that makes perfect sense. <<May the blessings of Mother AUTODESK flow freely upon you.>> Thank you my son. May it shine down upon you always. <g> -brian
