Just sayin' that if every time an agent complained about support, warranted or not, and a support mod came back with a response like that then that would most likely make the agent not need support anymore....or GLB for that matter.
Bite your tongue and move on to the next complaining customer.
Originally posted by gbororats Be more specific next time and specify what you were trying to upload. Gifs worked fine and I never said it was a problem with your computer. Plus bort never looks at the bug tickets anymore and neither does pallow so we try and are basically handcuffed. I'm sorry I can't text bort for you.
Um, I was specific. Shall I re-post my bug ticket here? Yes, I shall.
Originally posted by Bug Ticket 439 I'm trying to change my forum avatar tonight, but it won't let me. I keep getting this message:

I mean, really, how much more specific do you want me to be? I told you I was trying to upload a new forum avatar, it wasn't working, and I quoted the exact error message.
I suppose I could've mentioned it was a PNG file, but, well, you're the Bugs Moderator. Isn't it your job to think of that stuff?

99% of the time I do. 90% of all bug tickets don't get a response from the user that submitted it. We don't know who you are when you submit it unless you specifically post who you are. We respond in the post requesting more info. To his specific post I followed up with more inquiries to which specific avi he was referring to and left the ticket open. I waited for a response. By the time I looked again a few hours later bort had already fixed the problem yet somehow this turned into me saying its his computer and I'm incompetent since bort fixed this high priority avitar problem in 15 seconds. But yeah I'll just bite my tounge the next time, probably smart, you're absolutely right.

Well yeah, you responded... by telling me it was working fine for you.
Great. Wonderful. But it wasn't working fine for me, so that wasn't a particularly helpful response, and it implies that I'm complaining about a problem that's actually only at my end. And given the number of random things that were breaking yesterday and today all over the site, that really just rubbed me the wrong way.

It speaks to a lack of understanding about the process of problem identification, and unfortunately that type of response has been all too common here over the years. Because something is not immediately replicated by the representative does not necessarily mean that something was consumer error. It could be, but most legitimate problems are specific or sporadic, and therefore not experiencing them in the first attempt does not invalidate their existence. But that's what you get when representatives are chosen for things other than knowledge and understanding.
