guitar_randy Posted July 21, 2010 Share Posted July 21, 2010 I haven't been too active on any forums lately as I try to have an actual life now and then,but I just discovered the new forum where you can communicate directly to the CEO Henry.I was looking to register there but the registration seemed real invasive to me and I also didn't see it state anyplace that they keep your info private. Anyone join that forum and start receiving alot of spam emails or telemarketing phone calls soon thereafter? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AXE® Posted July 21, 2010 Share Posted July 21, 2010 Nope. A quote Henry J The requirement to be accepted to this forum is that you apply with: 1) Full name (no initials, blanks, handles, etc.) 2) Full address 3) Real phone number (not 555-5555, or other attempt at deception) The purpose for this forum is to have a dialogue with people who stand behind their post with their real identity. If someone did not provide us with this authentic information then we either gave the user a guest privilege, or if the submission was inflammatory or obviously deceptive we banned the user. Less than 3% of the requests for membership were denied. If there was an error, you can resubmit an application with all information filled in and authentic.

badbluesplayer Posted July 21, 2010 Share Posted July 21, 2010 I haven't gotten any spam yet. I think they ask for a lot of info to weed out the anonymous people and the people who aren't constructive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saturn Posted July 21, 2010 Share Posted July 21, 2010 I only went there one time by clicking on Dem00n's "hes back" link and reading Curtis Whatshisname's unintelligible post. I have nothing constructive to add or anything to say that Henry cares about, so I'm not going to bother joining. Hopefully, anything interesting that goes on there will get posted here in The Lounge eventually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
