Microsoft:please open all testers’ appreciation screenshots!

[dongdongliushui 49]

It won’t do you any harm other than wet our appetite, and make the long wait less unbearable.

[Ray Proudfoot 8,944]

I suggest you search for Non Disclosure Agreement and read it. Testers are not permitted to post anything unless Microsoft give approval and that is not likely to happen any time soon.

It will do them harm. They'll be thrown out of the test group. Patience!

I believe the OP is asking MS to ease the NDA, NOT asking testers to break it.

Agreed but they'll do it when they're ready and not bow to public pressure.

[stephenbgs 169]

Also agree, it will be released before we know it and soon asking for service pack one, the cycle continues.

Pretty sure Microsoft knows more about what might or might not harm them, and that is why there is a NDA in place.

When the time is right the flood gates will be open and the NDA lifted 🙂

This is exactly why the OP calls on Microsoft to allow screenshots to be made public and not on the testers to break the NDA.

Doesn't cost anything for us to politely ask, right ? And a good PR campaign is always listening to the public "pressure".

[highflyer2020 607]

They should open it for all of us that have already signed the NDA - that makes this a bit easier surely! 

[Carts85 1,203]

Pretty much what highflyer2020 said, I’d be perfectly happy to sign an NDA just for access to the forums where we can atleast see some screenshots and feel a part of the current alpha.

They've already given us more than any other version but that still isn't enough??? Be satisfied with what you have.

I am sure all they « gave » us was only out of their good heart 😀 ! Not a skillful PR campaign to hook us ! Not a campaign that goes crescendo ? Not a campaign to get gentle feedbacks from the customer base as the OP did. Just out of their good heart, I tell you. 

Anyway, if you are satisfied, thats good to me but why not let others ask for more if they feel so inclined ?

PS Also a question, Ray. You wrote Non Disclosure Agreement  in red just for being festive ? You know red is the color of Xmas and all.

@domkle, ever read “Oliver Twist”? 😉

To keep asking is not reasonable in my humble opinion. Don’t people have patience any longer? It seems to me than however much is given by Microsoft that will never be enough for some. 🤨

Get in your aircraft and have a fly.

[charliearon 3,022]

It's called "instant gratification", Ray!  You can thank the cellphone, internet, and social media for that! 📱

[ca_metal 2,015]

Well, it doesn't hurt to ask them. Would be nice to see things from the users perspectives (like like all user screenshots threads).

Are your opinions truly humble, Ray ? Really ?  Now, don't take offence, I am not the humble kind either 😄 ! And remember reasonable as beauty is in the eye of the beholder. What sounds reasonable to you  is unreasonable to the OP.  

Its like a game, not FS20, but the PR campaign : they show us teasers expecting us to be excited and to ask for more. If nobody was asking anything, I bet they would be massively disappointed.

 I tell you what, Charlie, the more I go (I'm 70) the more I like instant gratification.
