No - you went much further than comparing your experiences:
You alleged that you had legally enforceable contractual rights you could use against PlusNet in this dispute. I explained why you have no legally enforceable rights, though you are, of course, allowed your opinion.
David I am allowed my opinion, whether you agree or not and I will continue to do so. I will also continue to say how I feel about the situation and my rights, whether you like it or not.
Practise what you preach David.
As I said in the words you quoted "you are, of course, allowed your opinion". Nothing I say denies you your rights to free expression. I merely pointed out, with a quote, that you had gone much further that comparing experiences between two ISPs.
I think you're fundamentally misunderstanding the point of this forum. This is not a slanging match or pub brawl where the most vociferous wins. This is a technical forum where technically correct information prevails. Anyone reading this thread is going to see that all the posters except you have broadly the same view of your situation.
By posting here, you asked for the community's help. You have now shown what you think of the community's help. If you don't want public comments on your situation, please contact PlusNet privately rather than wasting people's time.
I have no idea what you mean by "practice what you preach". I have only tried to help you and have never suggested you should stop posting. However, if you keep asserting obvious nonsense, you shouldn't be surprised when I and other posters draw attention to this nonsense.
Now David, you may as well go work for Plusnet as their lawyer, as you doing a good job of going on about PN�s legal rights and whatnot.
David please do not respond to me anymore, with your legal nonsense as you have not helped and caused more problems. You will be ignored, unless you have something sensible to say. You David, are also on my ignore list until Wednesday
30th jan 2013.
I'm a former software engineer for a computer networking company. I'm currently a law student. I do not work as a lawyer for anyone.
I was not asserting PlusNet's legal rights - but pointing out the lack of rights you falsely claimed you had. In doing so, I provided references where possible (albeit largely to Wikipedia, which is not always accurate) to allow you to check what I wrote.
Proceeding on the basis of false understanding will do you no good whatsoever - if you attempt to go to alternative dispute resolution (via whichever ombudsman service PlusNet use) or to court based on rights that do not exist, your case will be dismissed. That does nothing to help you.
You may not agree with a statement of the law, but that does not make it nonsense. I have also commented on the technical nonsense behind some of the things you have said (in particular, the idea that a 'good IP addresses only' setting makes any sense) - but my arguments were based on fact and explanation, not assertion and ignoring what others have said.
You do not control this thread, this board or these forums - they are controlled by the staff and moderators. It's up to you whether you read this at some point. It's your loss if you disregard the common sense that many have posted in this thread.
