MUMBO JUMBO - NOT ON MY WATCH
#1
Here is a useful anecdote, from JamKazams GLOBAL CHAT 14 hours ago. To illustrate a point from me - in general and in particular.
Not om my watch!

It is formed like a text to a particular person - about that episode in the chat:
---

First I was asked by you:

"hans what is the most recent update to address?"

What is that mumbo jumbo?

The most recent update to adress is of course the most recent update. That is obvious.

You are maybe thinking about which part of the update that is most interesting or whatever.

Who knows what you are thinking there? I can only guess - and that is out of the question, as long as it goes.

Then you tell that "internet is same" and "after update latency is way worse"

And "but camera works now on mac catalina"

Not more than that.

Whether the camera is involved in the latency problem is not annonced.

Then you tell that you (all of you in band) was required to download a JK update this week.

I say: "Yes"

And then you tell about what date a annoncement about it was in the forum.

I say: "and then what?"

Both facts are knowned facts - and it is also irrelevant. It is total unnecesary to tell that. Total waste of time!

At last you come to the point: "... curious what changes were made in the update".

I write then: "OK - now I get what you mean"

What a waste of time, calories, bandwith, hard drive und so weiter.

It is also a waste of all readers and writers time  and so. They must endure that. 

It was then needed to tell you (and others, by the way) that you shall not waste my time.

Then there were a longer empty and useless disput, that I will not go through right here. - it will come later

One more time: Dont waste my time with vague, unclear questions and statements.

You said: "my apologies".

Which I ignored - and/or forgot, whatever.

That is of course not okay from my side, but it dont affect the big picture.

I will of course try to understand as good as I can and better day by day, maybe. I will even claim that I am a good reader and so. And good to help people to explain. But there are limits for my abilities (especially with the language - I am danish) - and there are limits for my patience.

Too many people are in general shoddy with there writings and even persist - but not on my watch.

I will have nothing to do with that - and no mercy. For purely practical reasons - no whims here, so to speak.

Enough about that. I am not angry - nothing human is foreign to me, so to speak. I have tried lot worse before.

But I will not tolerate that behaviour and attitude. If more of that I will take further actions

Just the raw files - so to speak

Reconstructed - due to it was gone, when I copied the text:

"Hans, what is the most recent update to adress?"

Here comes the autentic text from the chat:

Well, that is all

[the words mumbo jumbo is not excactly the right word to use in this situation, of course - that was a error. But now I will let it be in the headline]

Politeness is a lost art these days Hans. People are used to have an answer "now" and don't even think that some of us aren't English native speaking, oh well!

Patrice

Keep the good job and I wouldn't want at all to be in your shoes.

Thank you, Patrice

I will not for the moment try to explain it all.

Your remarks is of course a important part of the history

Regarding keeping the job - I am actually loosing my lust to help, sadly.

One purpose for me to help is of course to help my self - to get more musicians to play with and better working and playing conditions.

And very important - get the nasty wireless sound out of JamKazam. They shall not pass!

And I have achieved that a long way - maybe that is enough. It must be - for now!

For the moment I am just on save flares.

We will se!

it is actually a good way to put it (see) - actions from my side will likely be very limited.

Take care and keep doing music,

I have now simply come up with the only right thing to do if I cannot understand what is being said and asked - and see no opportunity to get a proper message in a straight manner.

Then I will simply overlook the whole whistle and move on to the next one who can speak a language that I understand without any major problems

It shouldn't cause any major problems - to me, hm!
