Suit yourself. You've been aptly warned in advance that *your* attitude won't be tolerated by the real powers that be. Not to worry. I've already made book not to deal with you at all in the future. Good luck with your "I can do what I want, where I want" attitude, sport. It doesn't work like that in real life. Have a special day.   It wasn't used as a weapon or bragging but as a response to you trying to lecture me about life. I sure don't need anyone including you to tell me how real life works. Further, you started this whole debacle with your flippant remark about me posting in the wrong forum so don't try to mask your responsibility in this matter by attempting to shame me about my military service. I could care less what you or anyone else thinks about my past. And don't insinuate my service is presumptive, I would never stoop to that level. I have to ask though I have never heard of anyone except general officers with  40 years of service. Are you saying 9 years of active and 31 years of reserve?  Usually folks only get a total of 30. Like to know how that worked? In my case the extension of world responsibilities extended my service beyond 30.  I do apologize and respect your service but that's as far as the apology goes.  ...

I never asked for your assistance to begin with.  And if you research my past posts, I believe I had a very legitimate complaint that bore out after six pages of debate with community members and finally Liz.  Do you remember?   After enduring multiple people chiming in about me not cooperating, when the bandwidth charts were finally reviewed my concern was validated. That is, the beam was indeed saturated. If you also recall, this is where you posted the disclaimer I mentioned above in which you just denied. Further, you agreed with MarkJ about a sarcastic remark he made about me. All because I was being persistent and wouldn't accept the technical hyperbole being dished out. So don't act so sanctimonious about all this. I was also called a troll by corrosion, remember now?    So hopefully all the folks you "cc" to come to your defense, I sure hope they read how you and MarkJ responded to me during my past issue solidifying why I don't want your help or opinions again. Here is a novel suggestion to avoid this crap in the future. Put another category on the home page titled:  Concerns for Hugesnet Mods.   ... View more

That's my whole point with you and MarkJ, my posts may be pointless to you but they're not pointless to me.  I can accept the fact that you may not agree with me, and if you don't agree then please don't respond. Leave it to a Hugesnet employee to respond. Again, feel free to assist those who are looking for technical help but I and many others don't want your opinion. If I have a complaint about lack of service over a three day holiday that's not your concern, period. If a Hugesnet employee wants to respond that's their right, not yours.  Unfortunately, there isn't another forum to voice a complaint only this one.  And don't accuse me of hijacking threads, MarkJ and I were going back and forth and it was you who jumped in and suggested the thread be closed. What gives you the right to suggest that? Again, you two put your nose where it doesn't belong. I said it before and I'll say it again let Hugesnet employees respond to controversial subject matter. Keep your participation to issues where people ask for help. Beyond that it's not your issue.   Lastly, it doesn't matter how I frame a concern. I feel my issues are legitimate whether you agree or not. A while back when I had an issue you initially disagreed but over time after Liz got involved it was determined that the spot beam I was on was indeed saturated and was switched to Gen5.  That was when I decided I was through with the so-called community help. I said this ad nauseam, the only help or response I want is from a Hugesnet employee.  In other words,  you do not have anymore helpful knowledge than I do. I know how to do a speed test, reboot and program my router, check the number of devices on the system etc., and I'm quite familiar with networks.  The kind of help I'm interested in is not saturating a spot beam with so many customers that after 6 PM I can forget about streaming even in standard definition, or when the system fails on a three day holiday someone is there to fix it.  These are issues you or other community members have no control over.  Hence, your opinions are useless to me.   I stand by my assertion that Hugesnet uses people like you as a firewall on controversial issues when it's their job to face and respond to criticism not a so-called community member. Lastly, I didn't start the issue with MarkJ, it was his initial attitude to my post that rubbed me the wrong way and started this long debate.  If this would have been Liz or Amanda they would have immediately diffused my frustration and the issue would have been quickly resolved. MarkJ used a different tactic. This is why community members should only get involved when help is requested.   ... View more

Slick, don't even try to lecture me on life. I'll put my education, career, and  33 years of service to country up against yours anytime you're ready.  While you were busy running around the track, I was busy protecting our democarcy so jerks like you can sit behind your avatar and pretent you're someone important. Perhaps you heard of the first ammendement of our constitution. Rememeber slick, better men than you fought and died to give you the right to free speech so try not to abuse it anymore. Feel free to intelligenly voice your opinion without making threats and you'll get your point across more effectively. As far as your warning about my attitutude, remember it was your initial response to my post that set me off. I don't respond well to someone attempting to verbally bully me. As such, stick your warning up where the sun doesn't shine and show some respect to others if you're going to take a leadship role on this forum.  That's how the real world works. ... View more

Speak for the majority, are you referring to the three peope who contiually take the position against customers who are unhappy with their service, no matter what the circumstances. Perhaps you should read again the thread "your thoughts on the community."  Quite frankly when I have an issue I don't want you to respond, got it. I'll say it agian so it sinks in don't respond. The only person I want to respond to any of my issues is a legitimate Hugesnet employee who are beholden to the company and have the wherewithal to assist.  Quite frankly, I don't like your attitude. I have been a Hugesnet customer for three years now and pay for the top tier of service. Go ahead and try to ban me for my light hearted jab for what happened over the weekend. Perhaps you should read the title of this catagory again:   A place to chat about tech or tech-related topics and just have fun. 🙂 *NOT FOR HUGHESNET SUPPORT*   This isn't your forum, it's a community forum. This means ... wait for it... a community where all customers can voice their displeasure or support for the service they receive.  You have no more authority here than anyone else. You may attempt to answer questions and feel you're entitle but you're not.  So get over yourself.            ... View more

Well considering my first post here we are after three days of 10% percent service, and behold it's now working. In other words, a few hours after everyone came back to work service is restored. Not conjecture just deductive reasoning. ... View more

Look slick, as long as I pay my monthly bill to Hugesnet I'll exercise my right to post on this forum. If you don't like what I post don't read it - got it! You're not a Hugesnet employee just some wantabe who doesnt have a life. So you knock it off. ... View more
