Hello -

Not trying to start a spat, but I have to say that I am quite disappointed in the new system here.

My friend Erik Teller is staying with me here in Denver from Houston and he was excited to become a member of GUU but was told he can not do any posting, etc until he has been contacted - usually 24-48 hours.

Well, Erik signed up on Jan 6th - a week ago this past Thursday. He got a call but wasn't near his phone 4 days later Monday the 10th and a message was left. He called back on Tuesday and got Chris's VM and left him a message.

It is now Mon the 17th - a WEEK later and no one has bothered to call him back.

I can personally vouch for Erik - and in fact some of the members here know or have met Erik in the past at Nationals, etc or have made deals with him in the past including Dave Mediema, Kim Stigall, Zane Burns and Chris Boyd.

Is there anyone out there that would care to call him TODAY and get him verified?

We talk a lot of rhetoric about adding new members who can be valuable assets to the forum, but the powers that be wait 4 days to call to verify and then after he calls back, he can't get a call back within a WEEK?

I'm sure this will get me a lot of grief, but this (in my humble opinion) is unacceptable behavior.

Please address this issue and get this man on board!
