And @PirateSecurity please, _please_, tell us that you're PAT testing your amp! Remember, a red "FAILED" sticker means that it should not be used by anyone (even your customers).

It's still taught, but only down in South Africa... which is the reason why the fire alarm response call center is located there.

And welcome to Basschat @PirateSecurity

That's not quite what your staff member wrote. Anyway, asking a customer to deactivate the fire alarm is incredibly dangerous. It doesn't matter if your call center in South Africa saw vaping, or thought they saw vaping. What if the alarm was triggered for another reason? What if the source was something smoldering away in the walls? I hope that Pirate improves... you're risking people's lives.

Thanks Pirate. Actually, XXX listened to the calls and disagreed with your decision. She even reinstated my account (see attached). I apologized. I'm not perfect, and Pirate isn't perfect either. I hope that we can both improve ourselves after this incident.

4/6ths of the owners are resident abroad. Hong Kong and Singapore.

When my charred corpse is identified using dental records?

Just confirmed: I'm permanently banned from Pirate, but they will refund me for the session.

Actually, I found the names of the board members online... and from there it was not difficult to give a good educated guess as to their individual corporate email addresses. Now they will not be able to say they were genuinely unaware of the fire risk. I've written to each of them, and nothing bounced.

I also sent a message to the CEO of Pirate Studios, David Borrie, via LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/david-borrie-33858819/

Well then they really shouldn't be offended by my sailor mouth!

We used to use Practice Sheffield, until that place closed down due to development. Honestly, my favorite rehearsal space is Playing Aloud in Lincoln. If we rehearse late in the evening on a weekday, we will go there every time. However, for half of us it is a bit of a drive... for our drummer it is perfect, as he lives in Lincoln and can pop in there to meet us immediately after finishing work. It is staffed by some really amazing humans. No AI bs.

Okay, I apologized to the AI chatbot too...

Thanks! Now reported for environmental noise with EPS Sheffield. Fire service already contacted.
