:lol: I know :P

There is one born every minute :lol: Bless him :lol:

Still you have got to hand it to him for being an optimist :lol:

You were right Lisa {up}

[u]All posts need:[/u]
A sent date.
A received date.
The address tested.
What was received.

[u](optional, but advised!!)[/u]
Scan of autograph [b]and[/b] envelope.
Details of whether an SASE is used.
Other helpful info as appropriate.

Thanks for backing me up, guys :D! I thought it was strange that he posted [i][b][u]22[/u][/b][/i] times in his first day, but I thought maybe I was the only one thinking that ;). Excel is so easy to keep track of addresses, that's it's almost rediculous NOT to :). I'm a mom of one, working on two...I think if I can handle it then so can he ;).

I saw how to issue a warning, I just wasn't sure of how strict to be with them. Like Ian said, I don't want to get crazy with them by any means. And I didn't know how much the date thing would bother anyone else besides me (but it IS part of the rules!). This was a nice one to get my feet wet ;)....

well I dont think he is going to be a problem. I just a got a pm from him telling me he is just going to stop posting then. I told him Im sorry he feels he has to stop but posting the dates is a rule of the forum. Oh well I guess.

Hi guys {up}

I looked at this Darrell_Crisp and he was basically out of order. He only joined today, and he has already made 22 pretty pointless posts.

[b]I gave him a 14 day warning[/b], and told him to be more polite and not be rude to moderators and other users.

Remember, you are quite within your rights to give any member a warning for rudeness or other unnaceptable behaviour. You can set the time length of the warning, so just be realistic :P

Also, if he continues to post without any dates / scans / addresses (without explanation) he should receive another warning with an explanation from you as to what he is doing wrong. For offences like this I would suggest a 7 day warning.

Just remember, if he gets 3 he is banned, so be careful not to go over the top :lol:

Ian :mrgreen:

PS. In case you don't know, you give a warning by clicking the "yellow card" on the right of the screen in the offending post :wink:

These things happen. You did a great job Lisa {up}.

You made a great suggestion about the excel spreadsheet (I do that too!) Eventually, people on the forum do start to remember to keep track of things. It just takes a little while, that's all. Remain patient :D

nowandagain [rockon]

Really there is nothing you can do. Just remind him about it. Usually they just start putting it in their feedback after awhile.

Ok...why is Darrell_Crisp coming unhinged on the Feedback forum? I simply reminded him that dates need to be posted along with successes and I guess that really rubbed him the wrong way. I guess he doesn't know that people actually do post some older successes here sometime and since those are his first posts, I'm none the wiser to his posting habits :x! Any advice on what to do about this one? Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!!!!
