Quite. Anyone who dares mention any shortfall in PBase's service is a "whiner" and a "haranguer" or a "maligner" or a "complainer". Rather than sticking to the issues, far better to do as Walter did and resort to name calling. That certainly makes the world a much better place.
I don't name call, I call a spade a spade
Ah, it's one of those irregular verbs. "You whinge, harangue, malign and complain, I call a spade a spade".

In case you missed it, Walter, I'll explain it to you again.
Not just I, but a significant number of people contact PBase support about problems. And... here's the thing Walter, read it very slowly because that's how it works over here... Nothing. Happens.
And in case you missed the other bit... I for one, and many others, already have migrated to another site. Not "threatened to", have. Some of us will run down our time on PBase but when, and I no longer believe that it's an if, but when the sun comes up one morning and PBase doesn't, however far off into the distance of time such an event may be, those who have will already be up and running while the pictures of the amoxtlimobile will be nothing more than Google caches. In the meantime those of us who also still pay money to be here may, from time to time, voice our views about what's wrong here and if you don't have the wherewithall to skip the threads in which it happens then it really is unfortunate to be you.

Indeed it is. Which is why, as a random example, I spent about half an hour on Sunday helping a new member understand how PBase URLs work in posts a couple of threads down. Trying to remember the last time you did something similar.
Still trying.
Nope, still trying.
So if you want to call me nothing more than a "whinger" (or "spade" as you may prefer), I do humbly beseech you to bite me.

Yes, I'm sure a lot of people would love to post the responses that they get to PBase support requests. If we ever get any, we should try it some time.
