No.

Why? Are you like the type of person I described? Greedy and craving answers? Do you have no sympathy for what Greg has to do day after day?

No.

 

-TN05

What do you mean NO!? You don't want to stop PMing Greg?! You are selfish.You really are.

He likes PM's.

-TN05

I mean stop for a week and let him get caught up, I don't mean stop for good. He needs time to get caught up.

We have a right to PM him. We can PM him. You are allowed to speak, but we do not have to follow.

I'm saying give him time to reply to everything, don't be selfish. I see people everyday in the OGD who have new messages, I see that as selfish that they probably daily PM him and get answers daily and the older PMs get older and older and most of the information is at that point out of date. I'm not trying to take away rights to PM him, I'm just saying show some sympathy and give him a break.

I don't PM the man at all. XD

~AA

I don't often either, but still, look in the OGD at everyone who has them almost daily. It sickens me to think they have the nerve to PM him almost daily and get answers back soon even when they know he's busy.

Well, that does seem like a good idea. I've only PMed him once, and now I'm stocking up on questions so that I don't send a lot of seperate PMs.

Excelent, great work with that. That's also something, people just send what they know already confirmed in the OGD.

If Greg has more time to spare away from answering questions, then the Web Serials get done faster, and he'll be able to answer some of the more in-depth questions.

I agree, we should lay off on PMing him a little bit. I'm not saying we should stop, I'm saying we should PM him a lot less.

I just sent him a PM on this subject, here's a copy of what I sent:

Hello sir, I just have this quick question.

We know you've been busy, and as I've said in my blog entry we should give you a week off of PMs so you can get caught up. Would you like that? I mean we know you're human and can only do so much, and we do know you like PMs, but still, you have many yet by the sound of it, so please give confirmation if you'd like us to stop PMing you for a set amount of time so you can get caught up. Just say the word and I'll do my best to enforce it with others who aren't desperatly PMing you almost daily for answers.

I hope that you will ask for the week off, we value you here and want you to keep answering our (seemingly) unending questions, and with what, 50 Pms daily? I don't think you deserve that, working for Lego, writing the books and serials, possibly writing some of your own books as it said in your blog entry and being married. You deserve this.

 

And just let me say thank you for putting up with those who keep PMing you on a possible daily basis.

If you want us to stop, why'd you PM him about it?

I agree. I don't PM him much anyway, and when I do, it's usually only one question. The most I've ever asked is four.

Well Cholie I wanted to ask of his approval for this, if he really wanted a break, confirming it.

The only people who are going to have enough sense to understand that he doesn't like millions of PMs are the ones who already try to limit their PMs anyway. The ones who send him three messages a day will just keep it up. I just wish they'd understand that BS01 usually has half the answers they need anyway.

Maybe we could inform Greg on that and have him give mention in his blog or in the PMs.

I have a plan,we are not getting the info we're suppose to get like Vamprah's region. Let's stop the PM on the 10th and the 20th of each month. Agree?

I was thinking about this at breakfast and that was what I came up with.

Aaaanywho... Yeah, a little break would be nice. And, as he said to you, he did just buy a new house. That moving period would be a great time to give him that break. I can certainly post a warning in the OGD, and I'm sure we'll find some way to prevent Greg from getting PMs for a bit - the easiest way would probably be just letting his inbox fill up so he cannot receive anymore.

Now, aside from putting up notices and maybe locking the OGD for a bit (which would have to go through bonesiii anyways), I can't do much more. I just happen to have started the new OGD.

It's Ok for me. I PM him only twice a month.

I agree, Greg needs a break. Cheak Biosector if your in doubt, or the OGD!(Both of them.)

That is very kind of you, thank you.

 

I won't ask for it just now, but I may well ask for it in a couple of months. I just bought a house today (you are the first person to hear that news), so my wife and I will be moving in early summer and I will probably be offline for a little bit ... so that will be a good time for folks to take a little break.

 

Greg

 

Ok, but should we at least hold off on PMs as one member suggested in my blog?

 

No, we are okay for now, B -- like I said, probably toward end of May, early June I will need a break.

I have an idea. How about you put up notices (like on the first page) saying to look on BS01 before PMing Greg.

...Need to start reading things more carefully... :annoyed2:
