MSI Bosses Upset Community

[Timmah Veteran]

Hi there,

Me the administrator of this forum is on STRIKE as MSI wants to put the forum back in Taiwan.

I can't live with that, as we go back to 100 years back in service.

I don't know what the or team members do, but I think of them will follow my example.

All of this poo happened because somebody downloaded a BETA BIOS from this server (warnings about beta's are all over the place)

But decided to SUE MSI over this.

I posted 2 Beta BIOS'ses here on the forum to help some users, MSI is attacking the forum team over this.

But their own Diamond forum is filled with Beta's.

The forum won't go down, but don't expect help from me, please email [email protected] and tell them the forum should stay as it is.

I forgot, also mail your local MSI office and inform them too....we can win this "MSI Game" if they get enough mails...

Thanks for understanding.

Ps. if MSI doesn't change their act, consider this my farwell letter.

Ps2. I will miss you all, that's for the good time we had.

Ps3. Just in case MSI terminates the DNS entry, the forum can still be reached here: http://msi.hispunt.de/

Watch the debate unfold here!

Yeah I heard about this, kinda sucks that one person can take down an entire forum.

[BroChaos Veteran]

why would someone sue over a bios? whats the worst it does? takes down your board? RMA it for a new one.

now before you say "well maybe it took down a mission critical machine...etc...", they should not be putting beta anything on a machine like that.

oh man why would someone sue over a $100-$200. won't the legal fee be much more than that?

[ForeverUnknown]

Don't they usually say for beta bios, use at your own risk?

yeah, by the way, do the Beta BIOS has some kind of disclaimer or something before you download? i hope that guy or gal knows what he or she is doing

MSI is a nice forum too, solved many MSI related problem

It just shows how rediculously ungrateful some people are, eh?

[Pink Floyd Veteran]

well for msi users that need help, I hope they wont move it

Sucks if you get sued over beta software.

[L3thal Veteran]

I doubt the company would lose the case if its over something in beta, unless they didn't state anything about using at their own risk.

[Meshuggah]

their support forums suck anyway

Gotta agree they aren't the best because one everyone that posts there has terrible english even some of the moderators, and admins it's too hard to read at times. The forum software is also crappy the design looks like it was from 1998 way too busy, and bright.

lawyers in a suit usually get paid off after suit is won (about 1/3).

Must be sueing for a lot then. ;)

But yeah sure he/she will loose. As already stated disclaimers where everywhere.

However something must be up because a lawyer would not take the case you know...

Yes, money is involved, that's why they didn't hesitate in taking it.
