So Stu, you feel that my informing the members of FC, in a semi-humorous way, of the experience/history of other FC members with the lacking customer service and communication of any given manufacturer, in this case the Tinymight, is somehow throwing cold water?
I couldn't disagree more with that viewpoint!
The members of FC deserve to have all the information necessary to make an informed decision on their vape purchases, which MUST INCLUDE information about a product, both positive and negative. I feel this is particularly true when the business model is basically a pre-order model, typically only 4-6 weeks waiting time, but nevertheless, the customer must pay for their unit prior to it being built. So when the waiting time expands to months as seems to be happening with the TM at this time, and there is little to no communication from the manufacturer to explain the current delays so that the customer can make an informed decision, then I and many other here call them out, and have called it, poor, if not in fact incompetent business practice. Keep in mind that I have not at any time said or even implied that Ville was operating with malicious intent but rather just basic garden variety, incompetence. Nevertheless, whatever is driving these exceedingly ineffective customer relations is entirely unacceptable and it's the responsibility of the FC members, and even the FC admin, to call them out when they occur. If FC is averse to truth telling then it is simply devolving into just another Trumpian-like organizational culture!
In the meantime, before I throw any more cold water (your words, not mine) I will try and warm it up just a bit before throwing it on subjects that deserve it!
