No hes not like that but they are moderating all questions like a celebrity .....

 

They cant answer anything that has not been approved to be answered in a meeting today between 2pm and 7pm ...

 

Thats why they closed at 2, to prepare a answer cheat sheet.

No, their whole chat system nuked itself twice since 7pm. On top of that, the lag was insane and that is just with 1,400 users. Best Buy should've used IRC like the rest of the world, since it works.
