Comments left by the PFB Team
Posted Tue December 15, 2009 2:43 pm, by Nate E. written to PlanetFeedback
Write a Letter to this Company | Rate this Company
I would like to express my dissatisfaction regarding a comment left by the PlanetFeedback team. The specific comment in question was on the letter in which the OP was concerned that they were not getting responses.
A member of the diverse PlanetFeedback Community "franese", had posted a comment stating her opinion about the fact that a letter to PlanetFeedback had presumably gone unanswered. The response from the PlanetFeedback team was an accusatory, antagonistic, "How do you know the PFB letter did not receive a reply?"
This type of comment, in my opinion, is uncalled for and not professional. In my opinion, a more professional response on the part of whomever left the comment would have been;
"I would like to assure you that PlanetFeedback did reply to the letter that was sent by this member. We chose to contact this member directly by email... etc."
By leaving these sarcastic comments, this member of the PFB team is furthering the drama and general attitude of negativity that can be found on the site.
I would like PFB to remind the members of its team to leave constructive, positive comments that will lead to positive, constructive discussions.

Thanks Nate but I actually didn't take any offense to the answer from the PFB team. I just posted back to them that I wrote that because the letter writer listed them as one of the companies who has not answered him. I think their answer to me was fair and was not at all nasty or sarcastic.
Now...some people may say that may comment was sarcastic and I think that's a fair statement in light of what's been going on here lately.

I think some people are taking this site WAY too seriously.

...this violates the spirit of PlanetFeedback.
Are we now telling people that they should simply contact a company directly and NOT post public letters on PlanetFeedback?
I don't disagree with your suggestion, but if it implies that someone is somehow in the wrong for publicly asking a question, then shouldn't all the public letters here, where someone could have used other channels, be removed?
Note that PFB has handled this well, by NOT suggesting that people simply e-mail responses. The PFB team respects that people should be able to give feedback AS THEY CHOOSE.

Personally, I feel that a better response on PFB's part would have been, "thanks for the concern, but we responded to the OP privately."
And just leave things at that. I mean, why respond with that question? Why not just be honest and right to the point?

Do you find the writing style to be any different than what you have observed in the past few years, from "the PFB team"? I don't.
If you are interested in positive change, I would ask you to look around and think about what has changed in say, the past 12 months. Now extrapolate it out, and you have a glimpse of the future.
My advice would be to accept it or move on. Judging from the responses, others have.

I just read Franese's statement and PFB's reply in that letter. IMO, Franese's statement sounds accusatory and antagnostic (and rather sarcastic), not Planetfeedback's.
I admit that I don't always agree with PFB's responses or even how the site is run, but in this case, I think PFB answered appropriately.

Actually, I think the site has been pretty positive of late. It still receives some silly letters (some sillier than others), but the responses are generally more civil. Of course, that's due to the tightened TOS, but it's still more positive.
I thought the response in question was fair.
