Re: MagicJack will be out of BETA soon-New Forum
hey Horsep0wer! Be nice. If you want DB to come back to this forum to participate and hear your issues, you should tone down the sarcasm and venom. If you want to scare him away so that he never gets to hear your point of view, just keep calling him a dumbass. He will make his numbers with or without this forum -- if you want to be heard here, then don't give him reasons not to visit.

| Horsep0wer did tell the truth. I was there in the Forum when the total lock down happened and it was a classless move by the magicJack higher ups. Now, I do agree Horsep0wer could of showed more polish and not be so blunt in how he wrote his post.

 What I posted was mild. I went from an avid defender of his product to one who is now highly critical of it by no fault of my own. I was given these reasons. I call things as I see it... blunt or not, sarcastic or not. That is the way I feel. If Dan doesn't come back into this forum because of what I posted, it's further proof that the man cannot take criticism and learn from it. What he has done with the forums and chat is highly suspicious. I hope potential new customers read this thread and think twice about purchasing a product that has gone from a little VOLUNTEER support to practically nothing at all now.
Frankly, I don't give a rat's ass if he comes back or not. Besides, what kind of man would not even register his nick on this site to back up his product? I'm sick of hearing the multitude of lame excuses about a rather large amount of things with MJ and am just about convinced that this thing is a sham. Good luck and good riddance. |

said by horsepow3r  :Frankly, I don't give a rat's ass if he comes back or not. You're not the only one here, pal. I don't have a MJ, so I don't have a dog in this fight. And I'm not doubting your frustration. But it is likely the case that others could benefit from MJ management participation here.

So true. I hope that the real forum comes back up, minus the [excessive] complaining and multi-username members. magicJack has a lot of potential. I look very forward to seeing it brought to fruition.
Some dolt actually posted as me in the "new" forums. Well, close anyway. They got the "P" wrong. Heh
There are some good, helpful people at the new forum though. AlaninKY, Stewart, etc.

Edit:
Thanks to whoever for removing that user (pinan). I have now registered there as Pinan. |

1 edit | Any company worth their salt has to take the good and the bad. A company that walks away, or perhaps runs away is a company that will soon cease to exist.
EDIT: In response to the live chat, I received an email from Dan Borislow. Since his email is not from the magicjack domain, I would rather not post it publicly. He replied and forwarded my issues to a couple of other people, and they will be replacing my MagicJack. So hopefully this will be solved soon.
They did admit the link to the 48 hour support is broken, and I suggested they add either an email link or some type of support on their site other than the 'live chat'. |

I, too, am disappointed in the forum outcome.
However, I used the new Technical Chat today with great results. Got right through and got the help I needed and straight answers - even to questions on stuff that does not work (like the Outlook plug-in).
And my MJ works great, so I can wait for the feature set.
However, the forum should still be unfrozen.

The potential benefits to MagicJack outweigh the forum upkeep costs. |

The product itself isn't a particular sham if you can deal with a wholesale sale of your privacy in exchange for long distance service but the people behind it sure are shady as hell. Dan Baristow lies in every interview he gives and manages to leave out critical and important info like the word BETA every single time. |
