Busted!

Well said Jeff, don't let this jerk get to you. I'm a happy Active Captain user and contributor. Keep up the great work!

We receive about a hundred emails a day from our current 130,000 users. About 30% of them are questions about ActiveCaptain. About 30% are questions about getting internet on boats, chartplotter software, and other marine electronics questions. The remaining 40% are usually incredibly thankful, nice, and wonderful emails telling us how the data has made a positive difference in the writer's cruising experience. We get very, very few sarcastic, nasty, or mean-spirited messages.

Here's is the exact text of the message we received from islandhopper00 yesterday:
Hmmm, I feel duped. My FREE Active Captain hat will only cost me $15.00. Yea, Ill pass. Well at least you got some free information from me. Take care. Signed disappointed.

That's the full extent of the text sent. It was the first contact made about the hat issue from this individual. I wrote explaining that he jumped to a conclusion about any fee and provided the link again. He responded back with a very nasty email that isn't worth the electronic storage to repeat.

You know, we bust our asses 7 days a week building ActiveCaptain. We charge nothing for it. We've given away about 1,500 hats. There's no charge. We even pay the mailing fee - even internationally. People who have had issues with the hat had the issues because the award email went into spam and they missed it. When they've written, we've helped them get signed up for it. They're usually nice when they write.

We ask for nothing. But you know, we don't have to put up with sarcastic bull created by mean spirited hotheads. Thankfully, it doesn't happen often.

There you go with your jumping to conclusions thing.

I didn't try to "discredit" anything. In fact I even said I started it. I never said a bad word about active captain. In fact I said it was very good application, and to bad I won't be using it. I even said you banned me, I didn't not want to use it, you pulled my ability to log in. Thanks for trying to discredit me. I guess you need to be able to read, and maybe when you have a bad day not take it out on me. Go ahead and post all the content you say is not worth posting. I bet it'll ring true to some folks. I wasn't going to. I even said I was not trying to bash you. I was merely pointing out to Gary that there is trouble in any company you may have dealings with. I thought it was funny that I was on the other side.

If you feel my responce was nasty, you live in a far nicer world than I live in.
