Re: [iPad] imaessage problems

 

Rubbish.

Well, we agree on that...

Others on this forum see it too, and given the relatively low number of active users here, I am surprised that the iMessage bug actually got mentioned if it was a fraction of  a percentage point.

People with problems complain about them.
Often loudly and repeatedly.

All of the people WITHOUT problems generally do not write to announce their system is NOT broken.
That's just a fact of life.

1% is one per hundred, lets take a fraction of that which is perhaps one per 1000. Who knows maybe 3 per thousand. I on the other have no inherent desire to continually criticise others that mention a non positive comment about Apple.

If that is an attempt to refer to my reply without mentioning me, I was not writing to criticize "others that mention a non positive comment about Apple". Rather I was writing to criticize a statement that showed a gross misunderstanding of statistics, and also flat-out called Apple's statement a lie.

There have been numerous comments about the manner of some of your replies...

I'm not surprised. I calls 'em as I sees 'em.

... and it may be more constructive to actively debate the breadth of this bug ...

No, debating how common a bug is, particularly when a soon-to-be-released solution has been announced, is not constructive at all.

Discussing possible fixes and workarounds might be, however.

... put forward a ridiculous comment that I have based my comment on the one million users I should have known. 

I agree that putting forth such a ridiculous comment was indeed inappropriate.
But you did.

Yes I know arithmetic, yes I know stats, I disbelieve that stat stated of a fraction of a percent, and that is not a real stat it is one stated by Apple. 

You mean, "Consider the source"? 
I disbelieve your claims of frequency for that reason.

There is no doubt about the value you add to the forum Jim, I admire that, but myself and many others, do not accept the manner and bias of some of your comments.

I am biased against innumeracy and sloppy language.
I am well aware of deficiencies displayed by Apple.
