Great! Blame the supposedly welcome and would-be customer...

Things that suck about your site:

1. You have a useless portal page that forces a pop-up (and therefore forces me to change my “quick preference” browser settings to see your stupid pop-up; and I hate doing that because then I forget I changed it, go somewhere else, and then get pop-up ads. Thanks!).

2. Your flash is at least a little sketchy, I had the same problem as did Sandlin.

3. I’m on DSL and it’s still slooooooooow! So slow that I ultimately bailed.

I am on a Cable Modem and had no problems at all with your site. If he wants to complain, then he should at least show a little more restraint and tact.

(...) While a couple people have stated this might be a bit of a harsh reply, I find my self in the same boat. I would like to see the new castle stuff and probably buy some, but your page has requirements that exceed my setup. If you want to make (...)

(...) -snip- While he could have been more tactful, he is right. The pop-up is annoying, and websites that require the user to have the newest software and/or hardware are poorly designed.
