Welcome to the Dark Side

How wonderful this heavenly place where all Information Is Free! But here is the catch - People Are Not. To bother the people behind this great bazaar can be one last inch of paradise that has so far defined your ADempierean travels. We would not want your star-studded series to end in a war within the empire. We have to somehow introduce an etiquette and behaviour and gently persuade everyone to participate in this joyous journey of adopting ADempiere but sparing the fits and rants, screams and moans upon the very people who made all this possible. We also hope that one day, you can always be one of us, and be on our side, helping instead.

Commercial Support

This is very important and may be the ideal solution for adopters who does not have the time to DIY or contribute, or go through the school of pain and darkness. We have a growing World-wide Directory of consultancy and services companies who registered themselves there and ply their time and expertise. We are also setting up a Help Desk regime to give online local but globally connected support that is chargeable. Fees earned do sometimes make it back to most deserving contributors here.

Do Not Say

Here are words that must not be used in our forums or chat or email in our bazaar. They have been known to cause distress and unnecessary negative perception to the person saying them:

  1. Help me, Urgent,
  2. Please reply as soon as possible.
  3.  !!! ??? (any multiple exclamations or question marks done repeatedly)
  4. PLEASE (upper case means shouting)
  5. $*%#!, WTF, (any vulgarities)

Things To Avoid

Here are actions or postings that you may have to avoid:

  1. Sending postings to Open Forum when there are specific forums to deal with the matter such as Help, Financials, Functionals.
  2. Sending private emails when it is not a private or commercial engagement. All requests for help on a free basis cannot be requested privately.
  3. All private assistance are chargeable. Assistance in private chat included.
