Angry My experience with a cgi developer

Hello
My name is Lorna, I want to share an experience, a desillusion, a shame for cgi developers.
Sherman Austin from URL and URL agree to built a guestbook server for 200.00, the script was made with many bugs and without many features that were supposed to have. Many months passed and they didn't fix the script, they even agreed to sent me the money back cause they accepted the fact that they could never finish the work. My people that was a year ago and after many excuses and lies they didn't. I lost 200.00 and the confidence in a developer, but there is more! they even began to sell that unfinished script on their site!

If anyone want proof of this just ask! I have all the emails saved.

Hope this helps others and please be carefull!

" I understand that NOT ALL THE DEVELOPERS, CGI DEVELOPERs do this! "

Sorry for any errors!

Sorry to hear that, but not all developers are like that. It sucks to put trust in someone and get burnt like that

I bid you better luck next time. Maybe you should try some references ?

Don't say that CGI developers are bad !!!

Particular developer who was doing CGI turned out to be bad !!!

You might would have same experience about PHP developer too !! [ I hope that doesn't happen !! ]

So it's just that the Developer was bad, rather than CGI developer or PHP Developer !!
