Your first thought after reading an article that says CI's are whiners is to come start a thread whining about the article?

Why do we whine?
Because we are under-appreciated and miss treated by clients, vendors, reps and advertising. We need to know that others are dealing with the same BS that we are, because every time we call tech support we get "that's the first time...or no one else has had that issue..."
I hear you brothers, I share your pain!
HDMI sucks, there's no profit in equipment, no one thinks that have to pay for the service call, and vendor's don't care about you.
Raise your rates, sell yourself not equipment, hug your family, buy yourself a beer, and don't take this industry personal, it's just a job and there's worse one's out there.

How about a new thread, "What did you whine about today?"
|
There is no truth anymore. Only assertions. The internet world has no interest in truth, only vindication for preconceived assumptions. |

So what happened?? Did CePro pull the article? I don't see it at the top of the thread list or on CePro when I click to it.
Kinda of chicken shit to write an article and then pull it once it offends, but that's what I expect.
You write something, stick by it for better or worse! Don't try to sneak it off the radar.
Maybe somebody is off writing their latest infatuated love for Control 4 article.
Has Control 4 ever made a profit or has all the money they made gone to pay back investors?????
Enjoy your red Kool-aid this morning :(

People actually read and care about what CePro puts out there? Exactly! It's such a joke. Who cares what they say.

Perhaps it was a failed attempt at satire...

Well I'm not so thin skinned that I get offended that easy.
I may vent often, but whining? Not so much.
I'll send all you whiners a case of tampons and you can compare the sizes in your next pity party.

yeah, I thought better of it and closed it. Thx And THAT is a chickenshit move. Plant your flag and stand behind your infotainment or utter nothing, but you can't just "take it back". I guess you had second thoughts about the hill you want to die on.

In my world CE Pro has not been relevant in at least a decade. Just another ad rag.

I came into this game for the action, the excitement. Go anywhere, travel light, get in, get out, wherever there's AV trouble, a man alone. |
