Cellular Phone Forum / Providers / Nextel / July 2003Nextel PTT ettiquete
I was just wondering how many of you guys use the speakerphone properly? it seems that Nextel users from all across the country are getting backlashed because of "rudeness" in using their phone/speaker in public so that everyone has to here their conversations. Even myself as a Nextel customer, I get highly annoyed at people who air their PTT conversations so that *everyone* has to here what the f.ck they are talking about. i guess it makes them feel important. When will people realize that its annoying to hear someones conversation. I am personally tired of hearing sh.t like this: BEEP BEEP! Chirp! Wasssssssuppp!?!? BEEP BEEP! What joo doing? Chirp! Nothing BEEP BEEP! Where you at dawg!? Chirp: Im at da store getting some Corona! BEEP BEEP! Hew mommy needs some tampons! Chirp: OK dawg does she need the ones with wings or the camouflauge flavored ones? Seriously ive heard sh.t like this. QAnd with lots of young kids owning Boost prepaid phones around here, its getting worse because they copy the adults. A second generation of rude bastards is coming. Then with verizon and sprint working on their own PTT its gonna get alot worse. SO USE THE f.cking IN EAR FEATURE WHENEVER YOU CAN!!!! Think of the children. Cause when you forget to use etiquette, you make baby jebus cry. /me awaits flames. uh, no. i like speakerphone. good bye > I was just wondering how many of you guys use the speakerphone properly? > it seems that Nextel users from all across the country are getting [quoted text clipped - 24 lines] > > [posted via phonescoop.com - free web access to the alt.cellular groups] Ah, those are just a few of the mindless ones. Most people are good about when to use speaker and when to use earpiece. I don't like the Nextel users who call me and just start blabbing right away without giving me the first "courtesy" beep. Lately, I carry my phone on vibrate, so I won't hear them until I pick up the phone and answer or flip to speaker manually. Not my problem if they have to repeat themselves! >I was just wondering how many of you guys use the speakerphone properly? > it seems that Nextel users from all across the country are getting [quoted text clipped - 24 lines] > >[posted via phonescoop.com - free web access to the alt.cellular groups] I hear ya! Unfortunately, I have several friends who insist on just hitting their PTT button and start talking or something. I wish there was a way to shut off the PTT feature (rather than having it on vibe only, etc.) to temporarily stop that altogether. I wish more people would take the extra half a second and alert someone or just give a "heads up" chirp before they start babbling. > Ah, those are just a few of the mindless ones.

When they start babbling, hit the 'exit' button, effectively cutting them off, and then answer them as if they had just beeped you. After a few times like that, they'll learn to beep first, talk when answered. -- The Fat Man-25? ????
