Then he should know better than to call him a prick unless it's in jest.

1. Emails, while not guaranteed, are best effort, and it depends how the server treats the message. Normally, the only way it is truly unsent, is to be classified as spam, no messages are sent to receiver or sender, as it defeats the purpose. How a server classifies emails as spam are up to it, and how its programmed (checking of sending server, spam lists, etc etc).

On the other hand, his messages to you, *could* have been blocked. That is also possible, and again, it depends how the server you collect emails off, is programmed...

2. It wasn't noted how he was contacted. Could be pm or various email addresses, which changes things.

We'll wait for him to see the thread...

Thanks Quasi, I have been so busy that I haven't even have time to hop on my bike. Let alone to fight with you. I have had the stack of photos sitting on my desk for a few months. I'll just have to put off some sleep to spend an hour or two filling sending them. If you want to slag me off go ahead, I'll just go and sob.

If you really want to count points, I am sure you remembered who spotted and picked up your belt bag with your digicam / wallet ... etc. Having to make u turn to go back to the corner to pick it up at the risk of some B train come charging around. Grateful are you not... It really upsets me that you are calling names. If I am really the scheming type, you most likely wouldn't have seen it again.

If anyone is reading this I believe I own printed photos to the following ppl.

MD - 7 prints
Quasi - 3 prints
Clivoris - 2 prints
bret_is_evil - 2 prints.

If anyone is REALLY upset. Then just PM me your bank account, I'll send you your prints and refund you money.

For the record all the electronic copies were delivered.

Quasi, can you PM me an address to yours to. I don't have them on the spreadsheet.

For the record, I will also make sure I don't under pay myself. That is what happens when I try to do too many things for too many people for next to nothing.

Ah mate - don't get upset - life is full of lessons OK - one of them is don't bank cheques your body can't cash. We all get caught out on that one...

Regardless of what was done and who was helped on a ride, this is business.

Gremlin, stop defending your boss and think "customer" for a second.

People ave paid their monies, they expect their goods. Zapf, it sounds like you've got too much on your plate mate and saying "Hey, I can't provide 'em right now. Sorry." might have saved a shitload of mudslinging your way.

not defending, there is always a reason for something... maybe bret thought he had to put it in a public forum to get action, I dunno.

regards email, I had the exact issue, a website from the US wasn't getting their emails through to me, I was wondering wtf was going on, so, sent the third email from another account, separate server. Turned out, they had replied to every email... but they didn't come through.

Its when people don't talk, or understand the problem, that it turns to custard.

Sounds like someone has been to a few sessions of couples therapy.

actually, never have, not that sort... it comes from disliking lawyers...

situations turn to custard, people don't talk, lawyers called in... and no-one ever wins but the lawyers... If only people could have been civil, given one another a chance to express their side...

shit... I sound sane...

wait... I'll blame this on the boss... he's got me reading a book, Communicating effectively for dummies, and last part I read was the 4 types of listening...

Hey, that's cool, I understand the emails not getting through thing.

But surely, after five months, when someone REPLYS to one of your emails saying, "I'm on it, you'll get 'em in a couple of days", and a month later you still haven't received something, you'd still be pretty sure some fucken geek techno thing wasn't blocking ya. Wouldn't you?

I dunno, you guys know computers. I just know customer service........

in some situations, you wouldn't know, unless someone said (via phone, etc), oi, I sent you an email, you get it?

I wasn't going to speak on his behalf, just saying, there could be reasons... He's big enough and ugly enough to defend himself

Customer service is easy... there is far more to it than that. I could say yes to anything asked to me... but that would never work, would it?

I also know how bret might feel... speaking of that, (don't want to take it off topic, but bret will read this) read ya pm's, I dun know where ya live, no mob number, so can't collect front/back protector, until I do
