    People are so sensitive nowadays and run to Facebook to vent about each and every little thing that gets them slightly annoyed. It's made the newsfeed almost unreadable most days.

    I get being upset with a company, a place of business, your neighbor, the local school district, your kid's coach, etc. Take it up with them directly. See if the problem can be solved through actual, in-person, human interaction.

    Just quit the whining on Facebook. You'd think these people had nothing else going on in their lives with the way they obsess about the dumbest things.

    I prefer to see the big picture and see the glass as half full vs...wait...my glass is almost empty?!? Dammit!!! I'm gonna go post that on Facebook!

    Quoted from KingNine:

    That's great but how does that relate to a company deleting comments and questions then banning users? We're not talking about users that said bad things but some that just asked questions about code updates. Also, If a company is filling up your news feed its an easy fix to turn off notifications from them or simply unlike them.
    The Facebook page is where you are supposed to ask things of a company. Stern has no other recourse to do so reliably. Please don't say email as they don't respond to those either. One phone call from me does not show them they are doing something wrong. Many post on here from people saying they were wronged might.

    You're right. I probably veered off-track there a bit, but that was based on the inclusion of the Whoa Nellie related stuff you posted on here from people going awol on that thread.

    I will just never understand the reaction to stuff like this online. I see the Stern Facebook page as a company controlled marketing tool that they can do anything with as they see fit, including the removal of posts they deem outside the scope of what they want to see on their page. Maybe it means they'd be better off turning off commenting altogether. I don't know.

    I get that others feel completely different in how they manage their page. I respect your opinion, even if I disagree.

    At the end of the day, I'm not going to let it affect my pinball purchasing decisions.

    Quoted from pinball_customs:

    All i said was "that a little creepy, jody..", and i was only half kidding. I believe the pic is still up there if anyone wants to pursue it further.

    So, you're ok with Stern posting all the Whoa Nellie stuff but a picture of a woman playing pinball (which if you take a picture of anyone from behind playing pinball is going to include their butt in the image...just saying) has you all up in arms and suggesting the pin community (not exactly one to turn up its nose at images of good looking women) take a stand? About that?

    Or, maybe you're not ok with the Whoa Nellie stuff. I don't mean to assume anything here. Since you've been banned, you can't exactly go put a "isn't that a little creepy" comment on any of their other photos.

    It's a Facebook page people. A Facebook page.

    It's Friday. I'm gonna go have dinner, play some pinball, have a beer, and get ready to take my family to our first Expo tomorrow. Peace!
