I can comiserate with the first part of that, sure, second part, not so sure; they didn't need to put online requirements in, but, owe the customer not to put it in? (Yes, yes, i know, they shot themselves in the foot and all other comments of the like will appear, but not the point i'm trying to make).
Alot of people nowadays are commenting moreso on the fact that it's buggy, the online requirements are a secondary issue. Or so i gather from posts.
