Products section (promotional tone, unreleased product) edit

Latest comment: 8 years ago3 comments3 people in discussion

This section sounds way too detailed and too white paper/press release-like for an encyclopedia article on the company. A much more concise mention should be made of the product and it's purpose, rather than the three paragraphs (over half the article, by my reckoning) that it currently occupies.

The second issue is that this is all written in present tense, as if the Bringrr/Bringr, BringTags, and iOS/Android/Glass apps already exist. While they may in some prototype/beta stage, they are not currently available for consumer purchase, and have not even been distributed to the original Kickstarter backers (disclaimer: I am a backer). The article should be updated to reflect this.

I'm not as familiar as I'd like to be with the Wikipedia policies regarding this kind of thing, but I will probably at least edit the article to make clear that the products mentioned are still as-of-yet-unreleased. I am completely open to being told that I'm wrong, and pointed to the proper Wikipedia policies so that I can learn. --Amlz (talk) 07:50, 3 July 2014 (UTC)Reply

Agree w/ Amlz, cutting. Please help if able. Jppcap (talk) 01:25, 25 July 2014 (UTC)Reply

The larger problem is that Aldo Beqiraj is no longer the CEO of Bringrr. It's hard to put to words all of the problems surrounding Aldo, but there is mounting evidence that Aldo and his group of friends have been conducting Kickstarter and IndieGoGo campaigns for no other purpose than to make money for themselves and not actually deliver on their promises. It's not so much a problem with Bringrr itself, as the project has been taken over by another group. There is a Reddit page devoted to exposing their schemes. http://redd.it/3ft0b5 — Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.216.217.80 (talk) 07:29, 12 August 2015 (UTC)Reply
