Please tell me it is....
And if any wish to join in and turn this solo into a choral arrangement...
Please raise your voices...
don't be shy...

I don't mind...
Just please give me a 24 hour heads up ...
on implementation of said proposed ban on me...


I may lark about now and again...
But I do alot more around here than some who's crowning achievement is to threaten banning...
Not to name names...

I do think I have a right to voice an opinion...
If it be topically or technologically relevant...
And I most certainly do see a great deal of opinion here at TMO all the time...in just about every thread...
And it isn't always topical or on tangent either.

As much as some may desire or actively get a persons posts deleted, a reprimand or a banning ...
Say for example ..
the case of Dave and his opinions on the Jolla fiasco he went through...
and people piping up and mods involved and such...
I should have piped up then...
and that is a shame on me...for not sticking up for him when he had and has ..every right to voice his complaint, concern and issue....
repeatedly if necessary...

Well I am definitely going to do so now.
Dave has most definitely been given the ugly end of the pointy stick.

If Dave's repeated mention of the crap he went through gets censored or deleted or he gets reprimanded for it ...
and he hasn't been (in my view) excessive in his statement...
then I will speak up...in support...every time.

People may wish such statements as his experience with Jolla or other devices ...silenced...

But that is hardly fair and unbiased ...
His stated experiences are as much a warning as anything else...
and should be classed as such..

Of course not everyone went through what he or others may have ...
But it does not invalidate what he went through or others went through.
Censoring or deleting or banning is not the answer..

(I do believe in finding solutions to problems not just voicing problems...and not offering solutions..)

At worst ...

Either moderators should simply condense his valid issues into a single post to save thread space...

Or....
A suggestion would be..

we have plenty of threads about how great such and such a device or platform is...
and we have plenty of threads about how "whatever" has this issue or that issue...

But we don't really have any dedicated threads concerning our overall concerns or issues or terrible experiences on specific devices / platforms / etc..or how terrible the after purchase service is
to have such posts moved to...

Some may think it is counterproductive to the delicate state or health of "..." device / platform / etc..

I do not share that view...
that turns this place into a place of "selective" knowledge ..that is detrimental to us all.

Keep up that kind of widespread behaviour here...
and believe me...
you won't have to ban me
I will walk away from this place.

What silhouette?

How do we know they dident try to deliver it?

Frustrated as we all were with the Youyota tablet, I don't think that it is in quite the same league as this!

... and what can we see here??? Is it something we should know??? :confused:
Maybe the refund for the tablet or some scam? :rolleyes:

@catbus Thanx

@Dave999
Well a link would have helped:
https://twitter.com/chenliangchen ;)

Trick or threat :D

Not sure how that would have helped.

You guys totally destroyed my above top secret agenda. I was planning to trick Chen to come here and explain that image and reveal the release plan/date.

Now it won’t happen :(
