Default Tracker Update - I'm done trying to be nice


Well,

After all we've done, including posting the old material and sending
Tracker quality feedback, it appears that Tracker doesn't appreciate any
of it.

The site I setup, since Tracker was having problems with getting content
to the web, provided some great, quality, feedback - nothing personal,
it was really good feedback.

In an email a couple days ago Tracker asked me to post the reviews and
responses of the Book and I said that I would only put stuff on the web
again if they provided fresh content from material that we've not
already seen over the last year.

This was the response I got:

--- Tracker Response Start ---
What, are you so ****ing cheap you can't afford to
spend $40.00 to purchase my book? No big deal, "The
Trackers" and I decided to post our responses to the
reviews "World Wide" on Usenet. We want the world to
know what "No One Else In The World" has done and
written about it.

Tracker
--- Tracker Response End ---

I (Mark) would like to thank everyone, again, that provided feedback,
and that didn't flame me for trying to help. At this point, I'm with the
rest of you.

$40 to purchase something that's poorly written, contains no useful
content, doesn't provide solutions to the described problems, HA!

Mark

Mark,

It is as though nothing happened. I personally think that you did 'the
decent thing'. You gave this person a chance to at least learn something
from the (very good) independent reviews that were submitted regarding the
'book' in question, rather than just dismiss the literary output regarding
'computer security' of this person, as merely the ramblings and
eccentricities of a disturbed mind. I personally learned a lot from the
reviews, and I think it was worth a try.

Not many would have taken the time out to do what you did, and honestly try
and educate someone who, even to my unlearned eyes, seems in desperate need
of some education regarding their 'chosen field'. But ...

This person has had more than a fair share of the groups' attention, and
more than one chance to prove their worth. It is obvious to me now that they
will never, ever learn. They have no shame, only a constant desire for
attention. It would seem that in this case, the 'standard' warnings for this
person were sufficient, and that further efforts to educate or to debate,
would be ultimately futile. Good on you for trying anyway.

Flame on ....

Regards,

Pete.

Oh well we tried. Valiant effort but there is none so blind as those who
will not see.

I haven't seen the promised responses to the reviews yet, but I'm looking
forward to it.

I'm tempted to buy the bloody book just out of curiosity. I think this could
well become a piece of Internet folklore In years to come, old techies
will sit around in an old folks home discussing Tracker by sending SMS
messages to each other.......

Mark,

Sorry guy, but I could have foretold all of that happening. You're a good
guy for trying, but it's impossible to get through to that woman. She is a
bonfire mental case who will only stop when she ceases to draw air into that
dope saturated, nasty carcass of hers.
