Re: Glad I kicked there service to the curb

emptywig Huh? What? Premium join:2002-08-05 Pasadena, TX	reply to poolek Re: Glad I kicked there service to the curb Nah. What people really get upset about is this growing trend towards businesses shifting to customers things that THEY (the businesses) should be doing as a matter of course. The only thing more annoying is the number of people who seem perfectly willing to accept paying more and more money for less and less service. And I really resent paying for a service that then uses me as a captive audience to pelt me with ads. We're SICK OF ADS. TOO MANY ADS! That's what its about, really, just too freakin' many ads EVERYWHERE. wig

I'll drop Earthlink a note and tell them that if they are going to do something like this, it should be an 'opt in' type deal. Maybe even give a cheaper monthly rate for folks who choose to participate or whatever. I just don't understand people getting angry and indignant over something so simple to fix. There are so many other things out there to get upset about.

DrTCP Yours truly Premium,ExMod 1999-04 join:1999-11-09 Round Rock, TX 1 edit	reply to poolek said by poolek : While I agree I'd rather see Earthlink not do this, I don't understand complaining about something when there's such an easy resolution to the problem. If the redirect offends you, change your DNS. Problem solved. I agree. The Earthlink cable DNS servers on Time Warner cable has more latency than some other DNS servers you could use. Typically this is not true. Free loading or not you are actually paying for Earthlink. The thing that I do not understand about you is that you are accepting this and not requesting the service you deserve. If you do not react to this pretty soon all ISPs will be doing something similar. Your normal DNS server choices will be less and less. Edit: spelling
