People need to understand that the customer isn't always right. Sometimes the customer is an idiot. I was at a restaurant today and a customer started complaining that he was allergic to something that was in the food that he ordered. It was right in the description of the item on the menu. He didn't specify this when he ordered it and then had the nerve to complain about it. (I saw the whole transaction) The waitress isn't a psychic and had no way of knowing. My point is, if it has what you want, buy it. If it doesn't don't slam it, just don't buy it. Vote with your dollars (or whatever other currency you have) and be civil about it. You also don't have to beat a dead horse. They said they were looking into it, give them a chance. They can't change everything in one day because one person wants a new feature.
BRAVO,
An experience I had last week in Rome. An italian customer refused to pay for a meal (at the table next too me) cause he ordered "Spaghetti a la Carbonara" the jerk (an italian, who should know his stuff btw) complained about the fact that the meal had "parmesan cheese" on it [8|] !!!! He complaint about "parmesan" on "Spaghetti a la Carbonara", thatīs almost like complaining about round wheels on a car !
Marc, as much as I agree with you and donkuchi (and, working in publishing myself, I cetainly do!) I must add that real carbonara:
a) Does not involve parmesan by default (one of the rare ways of preparing pasta that is not usually consumed with parmesan)
b) In proper Italian restaurants, waiter will not "force" parmesan on your dish even if serving a pasta that usually goes with it, he will give you parmesan in separate "box" (for lack of better word) and let you apply it yourself
Now, my reasons for resurrecting this thread are not gastronomic [:D] but I will ask my game related questions in separate post [;)]
