They only send out mass emails when they create a new pointless label that no one wants. Randall Dowling and buttock 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too late for some, but a good way to reach and help those still struggling. And an apology might restore a touch of good will in the hearts of those who are flagging. It would show us they care. I've got nothing more to say on it, you'll be pleased to hear. They sodded it up, I tried to help, we've had zero communication, here I am moaning about it instead of boring everyone with pence drivel. Same drill every time. What is it they say about people who keep doing the same thing and expect a different result? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try searching for any number of threads that called attention to some of the grading issues over the last 15 years. Best of luck. It's been reported: Although some might say that stopping people finding my pence threads is a public service. Randall Dowling 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why didn't they just make the old URL redirect to the new one. Even a google search leads to the old non-functional URL.

A banner message is possible - they did one for the Journals migration. Bottom line, CGC staff may care passionately about this forum. They may open a vein when it doesn't work and gnash their teeth behind the scenes. But if they never tell us, never show it, and generally go out of their way to promote the exact polar opposite position - namely that they don't give one toss - what do they expect us all to think? We're not mind readers. The only CGC staff here on this board has been me. A team has been needed here for some time as I am an individual responsible for MANY areas of all of the CCG businesses. Not an excuse but an explanation of why things have gone down the way they have. I am happy that a team is being assembled and hopefully many of these concerns will be addressed soon.

Hopefully this will be better going forward. It sure feels like this board is being neglected. piper 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know I want to be supportive Dena. You're a decent person. But members have been locked out for coming up to 2 days now, and it's entirely reasonable for us to get the hump when so many of us called the issue out within hours of the update. We just wanted a single line response to say "on it". Not necessarily from you personally, but from "CGC". You've been battling away on your own for a long time now - a bolstered team will be good for everyone. Thanks for everything you've done, and are still doing, behind the scenes thehumantorch and onlyweaknesskryptonite 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We just need someone to do their job. Heck, they don’t even need to do it well. Just put in the modicum of effort to simply do the job. Sad that it’s come to that.

I'm sure plenty of us here would help to make sure things go smoother. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattTheDuck Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 It's hard being the "face" of something when things go sideways. I've been there and it's no fun. People get generally upset and you're the only "target." Don't take it personally - many posters really care about something you're helping build.
