His expectations were not what was unreasonable, with the single (but quite broad) exception that those expectations should have been adapting to the situation based on the most current information we have been honestly providing all along, throughout the entire process...as opposed to rigidly maintaining expectations of a growing and living product based only on what was said initially...



As you said, what was unreasonable was his conclusion that, because of his rigid, un-adaptive expectations, he should then jump to the conclusion that we at Portalarium have been both dishonest and pathetic... That dishonorable offense required immediate response not from Portalarium,...but from me personally...with the words "petty and self-absorbed" being my most gentle descriptors of what his attitude felt like... I reserve that right not only as a contractor, but as a respectable gentleman... Though his descent to this level does not excuse my need to dive down to that same level to lift it back up again, I require no excuse in this particular case... Any justification falls well within the boundaries of appropriate discipline... I do not give warnings when dealing with such behavior...



As for the rest of you, forgive any shock you may have felt at my response. I am normally one of the most patient and giving of individuals when it comes to those who are concerned over our progress, and who are willing to display that concern or unhappiness in reasonable, cordial ways... However, in cases where either the honor or honesty of my Portalarium family is impugned in the way it happened here, I have neither patience nor respect to give...



I'm am perfectly content if Meniketti wishes to continue expressing concern and unhappiness on these forums, but only in a respectful manner... The method he used earlier must never be employed again...
