That's similar to how I contacted WP - from their help forums.<br /><br />I've used both bloggers and WP's help forums, and while WP were better at replying, they also didn't help very much. There can be long gaps between replies with blogger, but I found that more honest. But that's me, lol. <br /><br />There's something irritating about waiting for a "Happiness Engineer" from WP to say, this is how we do business or go away - we won't mind.<br /><br />I'd rather hear nothing than be slapped in the face with a cold fish, lol.Chris https://www.blogger.com/profile/13715819899708384147noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8284944855633609232.post-4380638415666738072012-08-01T17:48:50.817+10:002012-08-01T17:48:50.817+10:00You got sarcasm from WP?

I am glad to hear this since I was considering strongly going to WP.Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14991571309786149363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8284944855633609232.post-60417515196663073102012-07-18T10:36:23.829+10:002012-07-18T10:36:23.829+10:00No, I started with Blogger originally, and then th...No, I started with Blogger originally, and then thought I'd venture over to Wordpress. I exported my Blogger blog to Wordpress. It was all about having choice, which WP was very big on advertising at the time. They did a big campaign for account holders to comment on other (non WP) blogs, to get WP known.<br /><br />That's how I got caught up with WP - it was supposed to be about choice and at the time their policies reflected an "open door" attitude. It's only been recently they closed the door on all those new account holders, they formerly advertised "choice" to.<br /><br />I don't mind if a company wants to change a direction. It's manipulation however, when they round new people up with the mantra of "free", lock them in and then use sarcasm to deal with those who don't like the new change in policy. <br /><br />For all their PR about free and choice, etc, they come across (now) as a bunch of control freaks. Especially since it WAS different before the new change in policy. You cannot expect to fleece your clients of their options, and expect them to consider it a better service.Chris https://www.blogger.com/profile/13715819899708384147noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8284944855633609232.post-46922222599768374072012-07-16T22:49:36.554+10:002012-07-16T22:49:36.554+10:00At least there was progress.
