Yahoo! Messenger 5

Here goes my post again, once previously deleted:

Yahoo Messenger has perhaps been the best ever Messenger in Internet. Unfortunately it has turned into a can of worms full of Trojans, it took my service down twice eight days at a time, I emailed Yahoo about it but as usual they don't listen to their users who are supposed to be some kind of a brain dead group of people who are to be bossed around, insulted and ill treated by the Yahoo staff. They denied the Messenger was full of Trojans, when they could no longer deny it they said they had fixed it but then the second down in my service came about. I complained again but I was never answered, this cost me on about 30 thousand dollars. Then their system breakdown happened and Yahoo was almost down for about 10 days. Many of the damaged features are still down and they wont bother to fix them after all they believe that being a free service users don't deserve any better.

I suggested we all signed a petition to request Yahoo President Susan Decker for us to become paid members of the Messenger, Mail and Answers, some others got a petition form and posted the link to it. I stated that being paid members with a yearly membership payment nothing would ever be rubbed in again and we would have voice and vote over the service package. I was then targeted by Yahoo Staff and whatever I posted in the board was either deleted or thrown behind into oblivion. My answers were all thumbed down, I began to obtain less Best Answers, from about 15 a day I ended up with a couple per day. The Yahoo staff by the name of "Lou" targeted me in the most shameful possible way, he has no respect for the users and especially if they are women and senior users as it seems he has some kind of a trauma against us. I know they read this site and I also know that what ever we post here is used against us then we are tortured, banned and blocked out of all possible sites with the use of our IP, by blocking my IPs they got 123 members out of their services as I own a Cybercafe. Never the less I don't care I have provided my clients with two excellent European Q&A Sites, all Google sites to replace the Messenger and Mail plus a few extras that Google offers. We have withdrawn from their sites, we don't participate any more and we frankly don't care. I certainly believe we have gained with this situation.

The said staff member Lou deleted all my post in the suggestions board, I thus cleaned out all my info and left without saying a single word, I have honor and pride and I will not allow this poor creature to humiliate me. It is best to post a very strong opinion in a blog elsewhere as it would not be ethical to post it in their site.

This is why I will soon post a very well informed blog on what is going on in Yahoo, the layoffs, the horrible service offered to their users, the back logs in most sites, what their fired executives are posting in very many blogs as they are not leaving quietly, how they lodge and protect trolls, how they allow point gaming, how the auto login bot is used by Lous friends to gain thousands of points a day and make it to level 7 in a week when it is supposed to take no less than 6 months. There is much more information which has fallen into my hands, I am working with two well known media people who will use the hard copies I have [screen shots] and they will provide me with certain other very important information. The blog will be called Yahoos slow death.
