Indeed. As a company employee who takes his own time to follow the nets and answer questions, and who doesn't get any compensation (except for the gratitude of those whom he helps), I feek for what Jordan is saying, and would like to encourage people who would flame to have a little ordinary consideration. To not agree with something a company does is one thing, but to blast the unofficial representatives of that company for something that they have little control over is quite another.
