Hello everyone,
Emotions where running wild last night and I have to admitt I said some harsh words I did not really mean. Please accept my apology for those hard words.
You are right Brad, we are like football fans. It is very good that we show Xojo is a very good development tool, even when there are still not things who work as expected, but we are getting there. I will indeed explain to Jannes and try to convince him to come back to the Xojo forum, which is a very nice place indeed. But it will be his own decision to make.
Gary, you probably where mistaken by the “not verified” mentioning below Jannes name. You where a little hasty in your conclusions. Some things are very personal which I cannot discuss, but when I read Jannes post I was very surprised he wrote that. It is definatelly coming from someone who is reaching out again. Probably replying to Geoff was on this moment just a bridge too far. But everybody has to learn and we learn most from our mistakes. I also admitt that my reaction to you was in some parts very uncivillised which I regret and apologize for. We had a disagreement which for some reason get out of hand. On this moment I understand how you came to that conclusion. Lets forget about it, right?
Geoff, last night I read the announcement about the “verified/not verified” addition to this forum. After a disagreement with Customer Care about using real names, I dissabled forum access. After reading the announcement and the thread about the broken computer screen, I just decided not to be childish and continue participating under my real name. I am sure when someone wants to steal my identity again, there are better places to do that. Because my forum access was disabled, I found it normal to see “unverified” under my name.
When there is “is not verified” under a username, it simple mean that he/she is using the free version.
When possible I will edit my hard reply, when it is not possible, can I ask a moderator to remove that hard reply or at least the rude parts? Thank you very much for your support.
Lets remember the lesson we learned today and just do what we do best… application development and supporting each other. The Xojo forum is a very nice and friendly place for people finding the advice they need or just sharing their thoughts. Lets contribute in a positive way, so we all make a difference.
Thank you for your understanding.
Wish you all a very nice day.
With respect
