I'm astonished that we need to explain that being correct sales people is the way to build relationships.

As if over the web you could fool human beings and get out without being noticed.

I have clients who ask for this kind of nonsense every week. I have to explain it to them again and again that this stuff is not ok.

In my mind, it's an extension of the anonymity principle: if you don't think someone knows who you are, you're more willing to be an asshole.

Yes, crazy. I think that most of the people don't think that are dealing with humans through computers. They just deal with machines, so they can try to fool them.

It's also part of the being really rude on the Internet behind the anonimity that we have.
