LEAVING THE INTUIT COMMUNITY
#1
Posted 23 February 2011 - 04:09 PM
AGAIN AND AGAIN, DESPITE IT BEING BROUGHT TO INTUIT'S ATTENTION NUMEROUS TIMES, INTUIT HAVE IGNORED REPEATED WARNINGS THAT PROMOTING HATRED AGAINST ACCOUNTANTS AS WELL AS PROMOTING INCOMPETENT AND ILLEGAL RECORD KEEPING AND TAX REPORTING IS UNETHICAL, UNLAWFUL, AND UNDESIRABLE.
INTUIT HAVE BEEN FLOUTING WHAT THEY PRETEND TO BE THEIR OWN RULES, AND AS A RESULT HAVE BEEN DRIVING MORE AND MORE PROFESSIONAL AND OTHER COMPETENT ACCOUNTANTS AWAY FROM THEIR PRODUCTS AND THEIR FORUMS.
THEIR MOST RECENT ACTS OF PROMOTING HATRED AGAINST ACCOUNTANTS HAS GONE TOO FAR FOR THIS CONTRIBUTOR.
THEREFORE WE SHALL NO LONGER BE SUPPORTING THESE PRODUCTS, NOR THIS COMMUNITY, WITH IMMEDIATE EFFECT.
WE WOULD FURTHER ASK THAT INTUIT REMOVE ALL (EVERY SINGLE ONE) OF THE ADVICE AND POSTS ON THESE BOARDS/FORUMS POSTED BY ALL (EVERY SINGLE ONE) OF THE ACCOUNTANTS THEY HAVE BANNED FROM THESE FORUMS.
INTUIT ARE ILLEGALLY PROFITEERING FROM CONTINUING TO UTILIZE THESE POSTS AFTER HAVING BANNED THE CONTRIBUTORS.

After repeated warnings, we were forced to ban a couple members. In one instance a long-standing member who has made many valuable contributions was banned. We’d rather not do this, but at the end of the day we need to consider the greater good of the forum. The forums should be an inclusive environment where everyone can benefit from learning and sharing their knowledge.
We try to use a light hand here, but when it comes to our members feeling comfortable, we draw the line. We received numerous complaints from multiple sources about a couple members’ behaviour and acted. These issues were addressed several times before we made the decision to ban them.
While some people may be upset that a friend or colleague is no longer permitted to participate here, they need to understand that uncivil behaviour is unacceptable on the forums.
A friendly reminder to everyone that, when you signed up, you agreed to abide by the forum rules. Please note rule 10:
10. We will not tolerate any behavior by members we feel is demeaning, insulting or designed to belittle others. Any such posts will be deleted without warning and could result in a temporary or permanent ban of the user from the communities. In general, community members must convey their thoughts in a tone that is professional, courteous and respectful.
Thanks for reading and thank you to everyone who makes a positive contribution to the forums.

Incorrect posts such as the above Intuit post are why we have left and why we will NOT be supporting INTUIT products nor INTUIT community forums.
SOME 10,000 POSTS BY NUMEROUS BANNED PROFESSIONAL ACCOUNTANTS ARE CONSIDERED SO "VILE, DEMEANING, INSULTING, AND DESIGNED TO BELITTLE OTHERS" THAT INTUIT HAS BANNED ALL THOSE ACCOUNTANTS, BUT YET INTUIT FEEL COMPELLED TO LEAVE THESE 10,000 "VILE, DEMEANING, INSULTING, AND DESIGNED TO BELITTLE OTHERS" POSTS ON THE FORUMS, AND TO CONTINUE TO ILLEGALLY PROFIT BY THEM.
We will not tolerate behavior by Intuit which we consider to be unacceptable.
INTUIT forums now have few to none professional accountants left, leaving the blind to lead the blind.
Goodbye.

Hey Pete,
Ask them if they have hats that say I was banned!
Sorry, but your childish reaction is FUNNY!
Grow up, this about money, telling the DIY's that they need professional help would go against the GPS like way Intuit is doing things.
BUT, I remember not too long ago the GPS only getting me into more trouble until I actually read the map and realized that I was going the wrong way.....
Time will tell, in the mean time go into the other room and have a time out!!!

Furthermore, I note that
"SOME 10,000 POSTS BY NUMEROUS BANNED PROFESSIONAL ACCOUNTANTS ARE CONSIDERED SO "VILE, DEMEANING, INSULTING, AND DESIGNED TO BELITTLE OTHERS" THAT INTUIT HAS BANNED ALL THOSE ACCOUNTANTS, BUT YET INTUIT FEEL COMPELLED TO LEAVE THESE 10,000 "VILE, DEMEANING, INSULTING, AND DESIGNED TO BELITTLE OTHERS" POSTS ON THE FORUMS, AND TO CONTINUE TO ILLEGALLY PROFIT BY THEM".is still the case.
FURTHERMORE I HAVE SUBSEQUENTLY HEARD THAT INTUIT ARE SO UNETHICAL AS TO HAVE EVEN STATED THAT THEY FULLY INTEND TO CONTINUE UNETHICALLY PROFITING BY LEAVING THOSE POSTS ON THE FORUM, NOTWITHSTANDING HAVING BANNED THE AUTHORS!!
So, a final "Goodbye", and Good Riddance.

Don't let the door hit you too hard on your way out.
Quick reminder to any professionals that remain, remember to be PROFESSIONAL realize this is a mature product that will see little if any development in the near future (except maybe the TP1 - now development is centre in Toronto, Quebec).
Quick final note, remember that what you post on the net is only yours until you press send/post then it belongs to whomever.
Have a good season.
Easter
