Come on, you guys are better than that. This is about helping and sharing, not gauging egos.

Just thought I would "share"...
the unrelenting, frustrating Progressive Skew has arrived again for my third S9.
This after 4 days and 8th mask session. No matter what has been tried/ not tried.

And the thing is... if ResMed is correct that the bug resides in ResScan Software itself...
then everyone has the Skew that uses the software... not just a few (some?) (many?)...no... all.

Nothing to do but format... again, I guess.

Not necessarily - the issue could be dependent on the software and hardware environment on the PC that is running ResScan.

To Bill Bolton: I'm with gpk, please focus on sharing and helping. That being said, I can't leave what you said go without comment.

Thanks Bill, it's great that we have you here to protect us from reading someone else's opinion. Not.

Who appointed you as the arbiter of good policy Bill? That's just such a pompous thing to say. In any case, "fast and loose with facts", "all too frequently"...what are you talking about? Where are your facts?

Why don't you just lay off Nord and stick to making a positive contribution that will be helpful to others? Obviously I can't speak for others but I suspect that most people are not that interested in what Bill Bolton thinks is good policy, but they may be interested in what you have to say about your personal experiences with CPAP, your knowledge of different machines etc.

...they might be Bill, if they were helpful. But you frequently seem to be just criticising or correcting other people. Although you appear quite knowledgeable you rarely seem to have anything positive or helpful to say, you seem more interested in a) trying to prove that you are right and b) using unneccessarily florid language and extraneous annoying punctuation to make yourself look "smart" . That's just my opinion, subjective and unsupported. Others may feel differently etc.
billbolton wrote: Long ad hominum attacks (etc) are the things that are clearly about baiting people
I don't agree with everything that Nord said or the way he said it but I really think that ad hominem is an inaccurate characterisation. As an example, if I asserted that Bill Bolton is wrong because he writes in a pompous pedantic way that winds up other people, that would be an ad hominem attack. I think it's more a case of Bill Bolton is wrong and he writes in a pompous pedantic way that winds up other people. That is personal and subjective, but it is not ad hominem.

I don't believe Nord is trying to bait you, he's just getting annoyed with you. I am too and I hope you will get back to making positive contributions and stop trying to lay down the law.

Playing fast and loose with facts under the guise of "opinion" is never a good policy.

To-the-point comments on specific issues are quite appropriate in discussion, whether you happen to like them or not.

Poor Bill tends to get uncontrollably upset should anyone make a comment about Resmed that doesn't meet his approval. Really.

Really he doesn't do the Resmed brand any justice. Really.
Nord wrote:Very obviously... billbolton is always in charge of the "facts"... just ask him.
Really?? I thought it was JUST me. Really.
And again he doesn't point to any "facts"... just his own unsupported assertions that he has the only good opinions; the only good policy and the only good facts.

Very obviously... when billbolton doesn't believe it... then people are just baiting you. Talk about self righteous, self centered, bloated opinion.

Look in the mirror and pinch yourself... nobody takes you as seriously as you take yourself.

Cheers (don't take this the wrong way)
