Are you sure you want that? Once that is done, you won't be able to log in.

Yes.

mfaccone, you will need to send an email to [email protected] requesting that your login information be disabled and that you want your subscription disabled.  Once that is done, you will not be able to log in here, or on any Stardock service, which you may find as an issue unless you are also discontinuing use of your Object Desktop subscription.  Please email [email protected] with your request.

Life would be somehow less without Stardock. Such rigidity should require more introspection I would think...

All this fuss over a ss.

its the principal IR...

mfaccone, if you start a thread about giving away your account and you get some seriouse reply's to it, why don't you just give it away instead of deleting it.
Kona wants it IMO

I would take it but i think it against the rules.

I will have to wait until all bills are up to date then sed in my 60 bucks for the object desktop stuff then i will get my level 3 status.

Jeez is this still going on?


Grrr I've been trying to stay away but forget it. >
Um, macfannee, do you have no clue what a mountain you're making out of a molehill? You are removing your ability to use an awesome program , OD, because a mod on a skin site pissed you off. Get a grip.
Dude, if you plan to continue hanging out on 'net communities, on
ANY site, you'd best grow some thicker skin, and grow it quick. Your little run-in with Jafo was -nothing-. >

Kona, OD is 49.95 the first year and 35.00 for susequent years.

yes but I want so other goodies to...

I really wanted to give the wincustomize subscription away to a person who wanted to use it. I wasn't going to use it anymore, and I didn't want wincustomize.com to benefit from a non used paid subscription. Obviously stardock won't let me do that. I own object desktop, a subscription to Stardock... and also a subscription to wincustomize which I didn't need to have a subscription to stardock. Now it appears that if I want one taken away I have to take all away.... OK. Sounds like american corporate machine working here.
This didn't all start with a ss. I had an issue about the way it was handled and the lack of communication forthwith. It happened that during that dispute things went south because of illegal accusations being thrown my way by one of the mods... something to do with prepubescent girls... Anyway, not the point anymore. I decided to keep but bury my subscription so that Wincustomize doesn't get something for nothing... but I will not ever resubscribe to Stardock or Wincustomize in the future. And when I am out talking to people in the field.. I won't be recommending them to this site either.
One of the many things I do in this life is train customer service people... and if I had one person say that we don't get paid enough to deal with a paying customer, or accuse the customer of doing something that is unfounded and with no proof... they would be out the door in a heartbeat, never to be in customer service again. And I think the administration of this site should recognize and train the mods in that fashion. After all, paid subscribers are paying customers.

and I thought you were gone already...

mmmm....

can I be direct and to the point, or should I just keep *R* from having the keyboard?

China, indeed.

mfaccone...as I have said on many occasions, I am not paid to endure recalcitrant people....but perhaps you missed the crux of the statement, I am not paid at all, and neither are any of the other Admins/moderators on Wincustomize.com.

We all volunteer our time and do not need, nor do we deserve this diatribe of invective.

If you need to alter the 'status' of your account you were given the appropriate contact.

Do not continue publicly with this, and kindly refrain from misrepresentation, both here and elsewhere.

It serves you no purpose.

Mfaccone as a customer service people trainer you should know that the costumer isn't always right but this is not an issue of an unsatisfy costumer with the purchase or performance of the product. This is an issue that escaladed with out provocation or direct accusation from anyone.
I dont think anyone would have known it was your SS that Jafo used as an example of how the work of another artist on a SS can be 'stolen' if its not uploaded correctly until you mentioned.
Jafo made the post to create an awareness and to advice users on how to correctly upload a SS. At no point in the thread did he pointed any fingers or accused anyone of anything.
I think getting upset over this and pushing the issue further as to wanting to cancell or give your subscription away it's totally unethical and unescesary.

I don't know how many times I have said that this is not the issue.
But anyway, the issue is dead in my opinion. It only gets rebrought up falsely when the true gets too close. Here.. publicly... no accusations were made. Emails were. I won't paste those here though, and the source will twist it again.. and the thread will be closed. So be it.. last post by me anyway.

thank goodness...maybe now this thread will drop like the locked one!

mfaccone, As the President/CEO of a 25 year old company I also insist that our customer training program include training for rational behavior. A few of the important components of that are not to back yourself in a corner and shoot yourself in the foot. Try to understand both sides of the conversation/situation and be reasonable. After reading the entire issue here I noticed that until you mentioned that you were involved I would never have known. Your screenshot was only being used as an example.
Knowing all of this my opinion of your wounds here are totally self-inflicted. Your attitude and proposed solution are unbecoming of a "Customer Service" expert. Sit back, relax and realize that you shot yourself in the foot here and make a "Customer Service" based decision. Your situation certainly doesn't have to continue in the direction it's going. You've paid for products and services that you wanted and thought were a good deal only a short time ago. Now, with your emotions involved your making choices that aren't based on the same principles you used to make the purchase. Don't become a martyr here. I'm absolutly sure that's something you wouldn't train anyone in.

weenie

Iplural, do you mean like... left knee, right knee and wee knee!

yeah thats the ticket !

The fastest solution for this problem would be Ctrl-w I think. It cures all virtual ills, second only to a power outage.

Well Helloooo Auguste! I'm so glad you're here

Ctrl-Don't-come-back...might work better

Always glad to see ya China

mfaccone, Think about some of the things people do in anger. Take a week or two and CALM DOWN!! Realize as I did, that this certain administrator has p***ed off a lot of members, me included. Realizing that no name has been mentioned, he tends to believe he can do no wrong, and he can't seem to see any fault with himself. No apologies come to those he has offended because he finds equal fault in your words after his action, to validate himself. Then, you might even get nasty emails from him. Like you, I was furious. I acted irrationally, just like you. I took all my work off the site, and I thought I was hurting him. I wasn't hurting him, I was hurting myself and anyone who might have liked my work.

Some people just don't understand how to communicate with people in a professional mature environment. A football field or a race track is not such an environment. Therefore, the conduct of those individuals might be different from that on Wall Street or a corporation such as Stardock.

With that said, I believe this person does care deeply about the site. I don't feel that he intentionally tries to hurt others or offend them. He just has a slightly different way of operating. So, just calm down as I should have done. Don't act in haste. Haste makes waste. You probably won't listen, because you are really angry right now. But, many people here have felt that way when dealing with this certain admin. But, in time, you'll get over it and learn from this situation, and you will slowly try to enjoy the site inspite of him. Take a deep breath and take a little time. Don't let this one administrator ruin a beautifully artistic site for you. DON'T LET HIM DO IT.
