Hi all, would like to give a few pointers to help me help you. When you drop me an e-mail, make sure you open with something like this: "Hi, I'm (YOUR HANDLE HERE) from the Elite Board...." Please use your handle as that's is really the only way I have of identifying who you are. I don't have a clue if you don't. Many of you have very different e-mail addresses. Make sure you say your from the Elite Board. I do visit many boards and get questions from other folks. If you have a specific question about a post, try to give the thread name and the evern better, the URL. ALWAYS use the reply feature for every e-mail so I can keep track of our conversation. For safety reasons, as soon as I read and respond to an e-mail, it gets deleted. I DO NOT GIVE INFO TO AN AOL E-MAIL ADDY. Do not expect me to give you a source your first week, month, year or 10 years on the boards. Even though you may have been reading for the last six months... if you don't post and actively participate, then I have know way of knowing who you are. If I don't respond to you with in a week, go ahead and re-send or ask again. Sometimes I do mess up, get trigger happy and zap an unanswered e-mail. Or I completely forget that I've not responded. I do not know the status of every known source. If you send me a request for verification, please include his handle AND e-mail. We have had a rash of "look-a-likes" scamming of late. If I know of him, I'll tell ya. If I don't know him, that does not mean he is good - or bad. Feel free to check around with other folks. If you have good info to pass along, by all means drop me a line and share. Help me help others. If you have had a bad experience, try and share that too. I know it sucks, but that�s how we learn and help others not to make the same mistake. In general, when you write your e-mails, try to think of me as half senile with no long term memory...which is, in fact, be darn near the truth! Thanks all     | ||

Ok guys......don't flame the shit out of me all right? I really would like to know why some MODS are so down on AOL accounts. Obviously I have one and have never had trouble and I can use any one of 5 different handles and I use each one for a different purpose and NEVER cross two of them. I also have another "non-AOL" account. WarLobo and Huck have just said in this thread that they do not respond to AOL's yet other MODS do. I'm just trying to understand what the issue really is. | ||

One reason for not using AOL is that they have in the past turned over PRIVATE e-mail to the FEDs. And now with the purchase of Time Warner, they will bend over backwards to assist the gov in any way so as not to be viewed as a monoply. Secure mail is FREE, EASY, and damnit, that's just the way it is if you want me to help you. Not mad or anything... just trying to keep you guys thinking about being safe. ------------------ Lobo | ||
