Actually they are like any animal as it attempts to survive
in a competitive marketplace and demonstrated rather
clearly they have over 300 online operators processing
submissions 24/7 with over 300,000 applications a month.

I not here to argue the semantics or right or wrong. I simply
pointed out an observation of mine and stated it. I understand
the problems and the frustrations.

The problems now will multiply. soon when more people get into
the game and the expense will go up with the added problems.

I think for the most part people do not now realize the disruptions
to come from companies that do not have the experience or i
infrastructure. I wish there were any easy solution.

I wish computers and networks didn't break and that
software wasn't broke ware when came out the door,
but then if it were a perfect world they wouldn't need
us to fix the problem and yes I am being sarcastic, just
because I can be.

Actually they kind of did it a round about way. I noticed they
have turned to the TV news media to explain some of their
problems and they kind of hinted at they were having technical
difficulties but that these problems would be resolved shortly.

And giving the information to the media vs the established channels (or
even their own web site) is an acceptable alternative who WHAT reason?

To NetSOL, it is acceptable because they know that the vast majority of the
media are clueless and will thus take whatever is given them as scripture.
To those of us who depend (for now) on NetSOL actually doing their job and
earning our $35/yr per domain, it is outright unacceptable.

I am not saying that NetSOL is the ONLY provider of services critical to
operations who is falling down on the job but they DO own the patent on the
process of screwing up and then lieing about it, getting caught and still
getting away with it.  (They just license it to the politicians.)
