By the way,unless I missed something,where is Tankerbuilder,is hevhaving log on issues ?

 

 

 

I was wondering he same thing. I don't think I have seen GMorrison around either.

 

Now that I think about it, you are correct. I have not seen a post from Tanker or GM for a while. They were always active posters.

Your comments and questions are always welcome.

GM is locked out in the current SNAFU. He has been over on SPAM in the meantime. So has Mopar Madness.

 

What do you mean SPAM? What are you talking about?

It’s another model website that has some members from here. Since the forum problems here, several have shown up there as either new members, or as returning members

5 days since the last FSM communication and there is no end in sight. That's stellar customer service for ya.

From a guy that has dealt with customers for over 30 years, the guy meaning me, I can safely say, you don't treat your customer base like this. This is an example of what not to do. I am beyond irritated at how they deal with this forum.

What an absolute pity. We, the forum members, are one of FSMs greatest strengths. We generate interest in their product. And, we do this without them paying a cent to us in sales commission. 

Whatever.

Pretty sad but true. This however seems to be the norm with just about everyone out there. Customer care has become a thing of the past for the most part.

As an example I need a copy of my home monitored alarm certificate for an insurance discount. The alarm company wants you to go on their web site to get the certificate instead of just sending one as an email with the attachment. Took me a good 20 minutes to fill out all the mumbo jumbo when the cert could have been emailed in a couple of minutes by the rep.

While I never had much of a problem, this new SNAFU has tired me out from a constant stream of issues. I will be posting more on other sites such as SPAM and less on here.

I have several Group Builds currently going on, a few that I'm intrested in coming up and a few that I'm a co-host or host with but I won't be going here first for general discussions anymore. At least that's how I feel as of now.

Not angry, just tired and dissapointed.

The problem seems to come and go here. Today it took me 5 tries before it let me log in. Other days I can't log in at all or I try again in a few hrs. and I get in. As others have said, I've got other problems to deal with, I don't need any more. I've liked it here for all the years I've been here and don't want to leave. I'll hang out here for a while and see how things go. Hope they fix things.

same here... although I only access via my iPhone and iPad. No desktop at home and my laptop is crap. And I do have seperate issues with this site on my phone that I have brought up to the admin here with no fixes yet since the last forum change. And every few days I get logged out without ever doing so myself. Yeah there are some glitches in here.

Samesame, someone must have done something...finally.

But information does not seem to be "Customer Service" #1 priority here.

With a 7 day outage uptime doesn't seem to be either.
