    [People] Zootech

    About four weeks ago, Zootech PM'd me and and said they didn't have permission to post comments or start new threads. I PM'd Aneurism about that then to see if they could help.
    Zootech PM'd me yesterday and said that didn't work so I PM'd Aneurism again.
    But I'd like to ask for help or any words of wisdom from the community at large. I always thought Zootech was one of the good guys.
    Thanks!

    Re: Zootech

    In congruence:
    Zootech has PM me a couple of times over the last few weeks.
    He has stated that he has not been able to post or have any thread interactivity at all.

    Likewise I have an intermittent problem with CTN "likes" and "thanks" button interaction. I've noticed that when I clear my MS IE web cache the buttons seem to work sometimes or too not work at all. I have tighten down security with my network firewall just recent. The security changes may have something to do with the random button activity from within my web browser. Since tightening down the network firewall security I'm receiving a log file full of STORM and DOS packet attacks.

          it looks like he is in the "Users awaiting email confirmation" queue which means he may have changed his email and not respond to the verification email OR he had too many emails bounce back to us. I resent the activation link to P****t@m**.com so if anyone can get word to him, let him know he should have an email waiting. If that's not his address anymore just let me know and we can get it figured out.

            Re: Zootech

            I guess you missed the four PM's I sent to you, Aneurysm. I would have thought you'd have preferred a private request. Next time I'll go public. =^..^=
            If you'd like a serious answer to your request:
            1) demonstrate that you've read the manual
            2) demonstrate that you made some attempt to fix it.
            3) if you're going to ask about jams include the jam code.
            4) if you're going to ask about an error code include the error code.
            5) You are the person onsite. Only you can make observations.

              Re: Zootech

              I get so may PM's from people replying to the "Welcome to Copytechnet" message and a few others that real PM's get buried with the junk. I'v been wanting to do some recofiguring to prevent that but it's a time thing. sounds like I need to make more time.

                If you don't see your question answered in the forum, please don't think it's OK to PM me for a personal reply...I do not give out firmware and/or manuals.

                  Re. time :
                  I've had many a verbal discretion with a couple of my old bosses throughout the years.
                  They never afford me enough time to do the job right the first time, but they always allow me the time to go back and do it again.

                  I would say directly to them -- "Why don't I have enough time to do it right first time, but you give me enough time go back again?"

                  They eventually learnt to see it my way....

                    Yes the call back time an expense for travel is generally where the bosses save money.
                    The boss doesn't like to see it that way though.
                    To many call backs an negative WOM marketing takes over, which

                        He had said something to me too and like a moron I didn't think to say anything to anybody. Hopefully we can get his privileges restored.

                            How about you set yourself up a second login and only let the long time trusted members know what it is. They can then use it to PM you on critical stuff.

                              Maybe it could transition around 1000 posts (top 58)? Or 500 (top 134)? =^..^=
