No thank you

Post by Thixotropic »

Just noticed this in the webinar email I got:

"Future webinars may be advertised via the PC software rather than email. Please be sure your license is registered and your software is up to date"

Ummm, no. Do not want. Please do not start putting notices or ads in the software. If this is added to BI, at the very least include a switch to completely disable it.

Oh wow I missed that. I like that they're exploring providing these webinars and I may try and view one or two but yes, I am absolutely against advertising in the application/software. Feel free to continue to email me (though they're still being marked as Spam!!!) I don't want Spam popups in the server software (or in the mobile apps).

I missed it too. It would be OK if it was only on the screen to update BI to a new version, but I agree, I don't want other adverts.

I missed the webinar email as well as it got stuck in a hidden spam filter :( I wonder if they will release these webinars as videos on the www somewhere ?

Not sure about the ads yet but the webinars will be posted to the new OFFICIAL BI Youtube channel -> https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCDkejn ... PfI7l2u64g

Only one video so far but after todays webinar, there should be a second soon.
