Communicating with the Moderators.
'stuff' to be thunking of
Friday, December 2, 2005 by Jafo | Discussion: WinCustomize Site Issues
With two and a half million odd site members [ok...some are less odd] ... it's often difficult, bordering on pathologically impossible to know/remember each and every one of you guys ['guys' is a generic term....actually includes 'gals'].....
So....
When emailing an admin/mod with the latest drama to beset mankind since the second coming, or last ice age....it's real neat and handy to remind us/them all of who and/or what you might be known as/by....aka...WC 'Nick'.
Dang it if it doesn't help big-time...
"hi, Fred here again, Jafo....about that upload last fall....." [methinks....'when was/is 'fall'?]...
Equally important, however is 'intercourse', aka 'dialogue', whereby confirmation of communication via acknowledgement can really help in stemming the potential angst of those imparting 'requests' that they are indeed heeded.
Issues arise from time to time over all sorts of weird and whacky [ (sp) never did look right] communications that go either unheeded or just not received.
If a Mod/Admin finds a drama that warrants communication then it's only appropriate that there's a reasoned response....
Supposedly even 'F.A.B' was alleged to mean 'Fully Acknowledged Broadcast'...but was later claimed to be just 'fab' as in 'brille', except made to look meaningful with punctuation...
Whatever....either way, don't forget that the simple, polite response can avert future recriminations and/or hair-pulling...

Night Train,....can I call you 'Choochoo?....I know you...you're the one I set with the auto-reject-everything widget/script/thingie....you're no drama at all...
Easy-peasy...

Can't wait for the new 2006 version of the Harley Davidson Choochoo.

But you didn't have to make a post about it, a simple email would've done the trick.

Ahh, the old 'let me use a 3rd person to get a quicker response' routine.
Does it work at all?

The strange thing is....every now and then you will communicate with someone via email, expecting a response...and you get none.
So...
What DO you do?
Do you exile them anyway....[if they are not bothering to respond then they won't be bothered to be removed], or....
Continue on regardless....assuming the fault is all your own and the errant emails are in someone's spam bin?
The last person who refused to respond in any form WAS removed.
Communication takes two. When it's one-sided silence will be construed to the non-respondent's detriment.
Bottom line....remember to read your emails.....
