IS there a way to change that ? IS  there, you ask ???

you're kidding, aren't you ?

you _did_ read the release notes, didn't you ?

you didn't ?

AAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

<sigh>.

short of ramming documentation down people's throats there's little we can do
for people in your position. sometimes I'm not sure if I want to laugh or cry.
at the very least, you could have spent 60 seconds inspecting the menu options.

someone, please, tell me, what do we have to do to get people to even read the
most simple, straightforward instructions ?

>(read: dear Povteam: could you please fix that for your non-US users? ;-)

no, we won't. to be quite blunt, go fix it yourself.

sorry if I sound rude (I'm not being rude, just blunt), but this is the second
time in five minutes that I've replied to a users's comment about something
that was in their own power to fix.

we've gone to a lot of trouble in this version (beta 6) to empower users (i.e.
you, and others like you) with the ability to do such things yourselves.

yet we're still bombarded with requests to change things that are already
user-settable options. you could have changed that in 30 seconds (literally)
instead of asking us to do it for you. so please do, ok ?
