When You join a program...

Some people may have changed emails or changed ICQ. Or on ICQ they are ignoring you.

Yeah ICQ is one of those funny things ya know. almost everyone uses it and I have been using it since i think 98a and after awhile i started to notice conversations that went like this
person1: So what did i do wrong?
person2: what are you talking about?
person1: your ignoring me
person2: no i'm not
person1: I sent you a message last week when you were offline and you you never replied to me... I have seen you on line several times since then.
person2: I never got a message from you
person1: Yes you did

and so on, ICQ isnt that reliable so a lot of the time i wonder if people are even getting my messages. I definitely prefer e mail... but even that has problems occasionally.

I'm not signed up with your program yet But always use complete and accurate information when signing up with new programs. Rather silly not to use correct information...you never know when there may be a change that requires the program be able to contact you.

I have wrapped all of my fingers in duct tape to prevent me from asking 'why not?' and spamming like krazy! LOL

I generally change my ISP several times a year, a casualty of moving to different areas for longer term contracts. Since I don't always manage to change all the contact info I sometimes get disconnected from the program when they send stuff(confirmation emails,etc.) to the old email. I started to route everything through domain emails nowadays though.

Also all your email must indicate the program name, or I will just dump them automatically.

My ICQ is always turned off as my nick on ICQ is "Tickler" which draws 100s of requests per day. I only use it when I want to start a outbound conversation myself.

Tickler, Thanks for the heads up. I try to include something that says our program name but sometimes i forget, I sent an e mail today to a webmaster that just joined and the subject line was something like 'Hi from SexyCityJim' I wonder if that qualifies heh heh
