Parallels forums does not approve comments when suggesting alternate software

5 pointsby aingisni_delover 3 years ago
Screenshot https:&#x2F;&#x2F;ibb.co&#x2F;3sfWRfQ<p>They have a product manager blog showing AOE 2: DE working just fine on M1 Mac&#x27;s running Windows for ARM (https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.parallels.com&#x2F;blogs&#x2F;mac-age-of-empires&#x2F;). However, multiplayer mode is not mentioned.<p>When I started the thread about multiplayer mode not working, and later suggested an alternate product, my response never gets approved to be posted. This has happened twice. And there&#x27;s still no response from Parallels on actually fixing multiplayer. Or making a note that MP does not work on their blog.<p>Instead, they just don&#x27;t approve comments that link to other software vendors. Or, I guess the &quot;I let my Parallels subscription lapse&quot; was too tongue in cheek. This is dirty behavior either way.

Typical &#x27;communist party&#x27; like response - they fear the competition so much they dare not let it show it&#x27;s face. If this is a high volume bot tended blog, you could add dashes in words or special characters, or misspelled name to see what the bot is capable of blocking absent a true mind.

And very, very common.
