    wow! mci ip-relay operators posting relay transcripts on the internet

    I feel bad that you have to put up with this. I guess we have to monitor our kids better. I wonder if hearing kids do this. I saw some of those videos also saw some deaf thought them funny. Really I don't. I guess best D/d can do is tell people about this. I would hate to have my call...

    wow! mci ip-relay operators posting relay transcripts on the internet

    RO rules-- gee don't know I'm not a RO so I don't know if they can call the police. Maybe police don't care. I don't think the police would come out for hearing - on the other hand, oprs. don't take numbers from hearing or do anything with their calls. If there is a RO around I would like to...

    wow! mci ip-relay operators posting relay transcripts on the internet

    Problem is I don't think they are allowed. Maybe some help out a little but from what I know they are supposed to be like a telephone wire (weird) sending information but not changing or interfering or anything. It would be like wire of a hearies telephone talking with one of the people on the...

    ASL translation I guess I misunderstood one of my friends who said that they were told RO's were not supposed to be "interpretors" but "invisable" or something like that so they were only supposed to relay a message not translate from any language including ASL. This was a Sprint RO who said...

    wow! mci ip-relay operators posting relay transcripts on the internet

    Thanks to RO I am one of those people really grateful for relay. There was a day when we didn't have it. You have a hard job! I had a long call to a university the other day. They lost a check I sent. The CA and I spent a lot of time on "HD" and did tell me there was talking in the background...

    wow! mci ip-relay operators posting relay transcripts on the internet

    Help CA We can help CA also. I understand many can't say we are using the system because we are deaf. I now give directions to the CA to tell the person (business) that I am deaf and use the relay service to place my calls. So many hearies don't listen (Humm) so they think the CA is a...

    transcripts I disagree. No one is identified by this RO's "transcript". Do you think that a doctor never talks about their patients? Yes, they do. They don't mention name or give out any information that would identify the patient, but they do tell stories. This illustrates the kind of thing...

    wow! mci ip-relay operators posting relay transcripts on the internet

    good oprs I agree. I seldom have trouble with bad opr. They real professionals. I try and help to know what to tell them. Any new thoughts on deaf registering to prevent scammers and help relay service? I really do not mind. I would rather have good protected service then the wasted work and...

    wow! mci ip-relay operators posting relay transcripts on the internet

    let's be fair It is easy for Deaf to think relay opr. job easy. I don't think it is. They want to stop scammers and protect us from them, but often can't. They get some kids (or oldsters) who talk sex to them all the time and they have to repeat everything. Those deaf and scammers waste their...

    wow! mci ip-relay operators posting relay transcripts on the internet

    I trust RO's completely What the matter with everyone? I have been using relay a good long while and would never think oprs. would "copy and paste" anything anywhere! Why would they waste their time? We deaf have some responsibility using relay. Some deaf make unreasonable requests, cursing...
