What the hell is this popup window that comes up every few days in TANE.

Now, I would dearly love to tell N3V and the world what I think of TANE, I would do it for nothing, I don't need a loco, but I'll have it if its any good thanks. Problem is, when you click "Rate Now", it doesn't seem to take you to any active rating or survey page.

So N3V, if its broken, please fix it so I can tell you (and the world) what I think about TANE (and get a free loco) , if its for something that's no longer active, please get this damn annoying popup out of my TANE.

Thanks.
 
Ianz, I applaud your logic in questioning tis little piece of Australian logic. It Demonstrates the unconcern, really, the outright apathy, in the basics of producing a professional product for the consuming public.
 
What its doing there isn't in question, the fact that when you click on "Rate Now", it doesn't actually take you to any page that allows you to rate it is.

If its meant to be there, then I asking for N3V to please fix the link so it goes to a page that allows you to rate it, if there is no rating poll thing going on, then I ask that it is removed. I'm not going to use the option "Rate Never" so it goes away as I want to have the opportunity to rate it if it indeed is available. However to have it constantly pop up when you cant actually do what is getting pushed in your face and asking you to do, is annoying.

Thanks.

Last time it was a signup page for the newsletter, and that was also broken.

And if the reward is the same, what it really means is 'If you already have the loco we choose then you get nothing'.
 
I think the loco is a weathered N&W Y6B. I remember when this popped up in TSMac2. The loco mysteriously disappeared from my list a while ago.
 
Ah, Shane, thank you. I have that, and it may explain why it doesn't take me to a rating page. Although it would be nice to know that is what the reason is. Maybe a redirect telling you that you have the free loco already and an option to still rate it without receiving anything might be something for N3V to look into for future surveys. Thanks again.

Raise a helpdesk ticket and demand a free loco for trying to rate it. Unless people start hitting them somewhere that they feel it, this sort of nonsense is just going to get worse.
 
Not sure if it's nonsense, but more likely a promotion that may have expired or that the page it's meant to link to has been moved.

It's basically a pia addon that serves Trainz nor me any good, And if I see it again, I'm gonna shoot it.
Very unprofessional and amateurish.
If N3V has any questions about the initial response to its T:ANE offering, they should look at crap like that. The failure wasn't in the new engine; I like that. The failure was in all those aggravating issues, mostly minor to the program, that are so irritating in the program. Shame on you N3V and shame on your management which allowed it to be released in such a shabby fashion.
