		<description>Hey Gwen

I did send my feedback to him.

He got angry, booted me and emailed me telling me to leave Doostang alone and never to join again.

He was very rude, to say the least! If I can&#039;t vent my frustration ABOUT the site to him, who  should I vent them to?

He is the Customer representative of the site; if I am dissatisfied, have an enquiry or need to talk about the site--he is the man I contact. 

Its unfortunate that he doesn&#039;t realise that its part of his job description as &quot;The Customer Representative&quot;. He is a great business person, I admitt that--but he should find a person whose got a sales background, for the role of Customer Representative. Coz he is bad at it PERIOD!!!

Gwen if you&#039;ld like to respond email me directly on: craigchirinda@gmail.com</description>

		<description>Doostang is really a great resource for networking!

However, a few issues bother me about it!

For instance:

You canÃ¢â‚¬â„¢t invite a lot of people in one go. How much is a lot? I donÃ¢â‚¬â„¢t know! The service doesnÃ¢â‚¬â„¢t specify how much a lot is! At first I invited 12 of my friends, then I got booted for inviting too many people (according to a message sent to me, by the Honourable Mr. Mareza Larizadeh).

After promising him that I wouldnÃ¢â‚¬â„¢t invite too many people, I got reinstated. Then the next day, I invited 4-6 people, in one go. It doesnÃ¢â‚¬â„¢t take a genius to know that; I got booted for that as well!

My message to the honourable Mareza and business partner:

Give us, in writing the rules for your online community. DonÃ¢â‚¬â„¢t tell us vague statements like Ã¢â‚¬Å“you have invited too many people in one goÃ¢â‚¬Â. How much is too many? Different people have different answers for how much Ã¢â‚¬Å“too manyÃ¢â‚¬Â is. So tell us how much too many is, on the service when we Join.

I think the problem is that you didnÃ¢â‚¬â„¢t anticipate, the fast growth of your site. Your server has failed to deal with the growth of your site! So my friend, upgrade your server and donÃ¢â‚¬â„¢t blame us for YOUR shortcomings!

It takes a few disgruntled people to destroy the Ã¢â‚¬Å“GOOD NAMEÃ¢â‚¬Â of your service. Deal with your server and you wonÃ¢â‚¬â„¢t have anymore disgruntled people.</description>
