If you ship the figures this week, as you are saying, you wonīt have to worry about more annoying comments.
I mean, if you are confident you will be able to ship the figures this week, ignore the annoying comments, people will have to shut up and eat their words if you keep yours, so donīt bother replying to the sarcastic comments.
You know you deserve most of those comments because you have made promises before just to break them over and over, so itīs just normal that people canīt trust you anymore.
But if you keep your promise this time they will have to stop bashing you, so just ignore them and ship the figures this week as you have said you are gonna do, and they wonīt have any reason to keep posting nasty comments
