Simple: I (or whoever it is) don't feel like taking the time and effort to write a PM unless you first express that you are interested in the information.
if they post they are looking for LMDS for a certain night are they not interested and just taking a poll who has what?

Does this reek of subtle antisemitism? Am I completely misreading it?

Wouldn’t that comment be more of a stereotype comment?

"Our company felt that the type of customers that we would acquire are deal hunters and not the type of customer we go after in the first place."

He said we don't cater to Jews, we don't cater to deal seekers, therefore we don't care. The only step missing is that said Jews = said deal seekers. Unless I'm way off.

No, you are not way off. Is the discrimination against Jews or deal seekers? I know some here will say I am splitting hairs. What if he thought the orders came from SD members who are without question deal seekers. Would he take the same approach?

I have no problem with him singling out "deal-seekers" as an example of a group that his company does not mind alienating since they likely won't be good customers in the future. Why did he mention Jews at all?

Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

Just about the whole thread.

I guess we did go a little overboard... but we're only human. When you push someone enough times, hard enough, eventually they can't help themselves and they push back.

Things have been really unbearable here lately.
