Some people just don't get it. If he doesn't find the respond offensive himself, he isn't going to see any value in the op's post. I have to admit that I am surprised by the responses on here in favor if their response. Even if you yourself are not offended by the language in the music, which I assume many aren't, I can't see how anyone can find the response from inside pool favorable. Maybe the way the op sent his original message to inside pool was a little aggressive, but I would never treat a customer, or individual for that after like that. It shows a complete lack of class and professionalism. If this post was indeed from inside pool, then I believe I myself will cancelling their emails and info.
I didn't expect to wake up to this...

No kidding, but he posted it, if he was so offended by it why would he of all people post it then.
If that type of language so offends him then why post it, it shouldn't matter who said it.
It's still so offensive to him, so he claims.
That's like saying I don't like swearing but since someone gave me tickets to this Rap concert, I'm going. With ear plugs I hope. LOL

No... The long bearded gentleman on his right..

It wouldn't really have offended me (truck driver for 10 years) and my language tends to be colorful. But I don't go into my current job and cuss like a sailor. There is a time and a place where it could be considered acceptable, but this wasn't it. The statement and the music was unacceptable in this situation. I don't see where this is so hard to understand.

The biggest head scratcher and obvious to everyone.
Inside Pool Magazine?
And that is apparently a totally acceptable answer from someone supposedly in charge
of their PR.
Certainly the person could have dug around just a bit within their Grey Matter and came up with a better answer than which he received, whether it was a genuine feeling or not.
Good news travels fast, bad news faster. Now everyone that reads AZB has read about it.
Not overly cool.
They can shove their FKing mag up their chute as far as I am concerned now.
Cause like, even if I couldn't afford TP, I wouldn't put it on my ass.

Even I have to laugh at that.... Lol
I don't understand when people complain about something that is free.
As far as i know every inside pool stream is usually free and to me that means they can pretty much do whatever the hell they want and if i don't like it i shut it off and lose nothing. If i paid for something and had a complaint i would voice it without hesitation, but when it's free i shut my pie hole and turn it off if i'm not interested.
As others have said it's usually a bad business idea to tell a customer to get bent but when everything you offer is free do you really care if someone comes to watch or not?

Maybe the alcohol was flowing a bit that day. That tends to make the "gray matter", that someone mentioned earlier, run a bit slower.
It doesn't surPrise me too much, the lack of professionalism at inside pool.
They couldn't even provide subscribers with the damn magazines.
ya I agree, its not like someone forced the guy to watch the free product. I mean if the guy really doesn't like their product, he should go get his free from someone else, or do what inside pool suggested, lol.
Kudos to InsidePool for standing up to this ever growing pretentious "I'm offended" attitude. I hope more ppl follow suit.:thumbup:
I do not understand why people can't register their displeasure without tacking on the boycott punishment?
like when some people on here don't like my stance on an issue they inevitably play the "I will never buy a case from you" card.
as if people can't disagree without trying to genuinely harm the other side.
I get it that someone can be pissed. and if there is a good reason to boycott a product then do so.
but to use the threat as a general weapon is a bit silly. and it's not effective.
more effective is expressing your opinion sincerely with civil conversation. I have great discussions in private with detractors where we have come to consensus on issues. I have switched my perspective based on those conversations.
but trying to SPANK me publicly will almost always be met with hostility and derision.
That said.....inside pool's response was way too harsh.

John, the difference between your spats on here and this is that you have never, to my knowledge, told someone to "f*** off and die" when they have voiced something they disagree with you on. That lack of professionalism, IMHO of course, could very well deserve a boycott.
+1 For sure insidepool reply is unprofessional and stinks
Probably the more insulting part may be the "die" part. Especially when it may be senior folk that the reply is directed at
We have to knock those Industry like magazines / promoters/ if they misbehave
While I condemn insidepool reply I am not sure about criticising the fowl language in their stream since it is free stream . But if it is paid PPV stream then for sure I agree with OP
