Bigasshammm Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 Only SBarc can do that for you. Mods have not the power. Link to post Share on other sites
dmk0210 Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 Only SBarc can do that for you. Mods have not the power. Can someone contact him and have him do this? It looks like he has logged in and posted since Aug. 1st when this GB was supposed to have started. Link to post Share on other sites
Pete Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 Multiple PM's were sent, but Steve is a busy man. All we can do is wait, folks. Link to post Share on other sites
RKic Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 Like I said before. The ARC group build as we know it, is a thing of the past. Steve is too busy with his real job, his life, to give a whoop about the ARC forum these days. We so called group build mods have not been given any actual functional abilities like opening or closing threads. We can't do diddly, so please stop sending us (or at least me) angry PMs about group build issues. I know it sucks. I don't like it either. Link to post Share on other sites
Neo Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 Yep we are powerless just like you!! Our job is to set up the calendar so we can plan GB's We are currently looking at a new system to make GB more efficient Link to post Share on other sites
dmk0210 Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 (edited) I hate that you guys are getting harassed when it's not your fault. :( Sounds like someone needs to delegate a bit more. What a way to run a railroad. :unsure: Edited August 15, 2012 by dmk0210 Link to post Share on other sites
phantom Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 Several PMs have gone in. Link to post Share on other sites
RKic Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 There are other modeling forums out there who might appreciate the GB traffic. Just saying. Link to post Share on other sites
jester292 Posted August 15, 2012 Author Share Posted August 15, 2012 I've sent PMs, I've sent email, and I've posted in threads. I'm trying to keep this on the radar so it doesn't fizzle into a vapor GB. I'm not trying to call anyone out, just trying to keep it on the radar, as I've said.

ThePhantomTwo Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 I set this site up a few years ago when ARC was offline,seldom viewed or used since,you guys are more than welcome to set up shop there until Steve flips the switch for the forum here.Mods for this GB can let me know who they are and I can set the permissions for them. http://z15.invisionfree.com/Plastic_Modeling/index.php?showforum=35 Link to post Share on other sites
Big Daddy Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 (edited) Maybe I'm missing something here, but all of us start threads all the time for our works-in-progress, tech questions, etc., etc. Why can't one of us just start a thread in one of the general forums and call it the "insert-GB-name-here" thread?

phantom Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 (edited) We have done that before. I have added a temporary GB thread for the two overdue GBs in the calander section. Lets keep everything for each GB in those two until Steve makes them official. Hopefully he will notice the extra stuff in the calander and make it happen.

phantom Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 Cool, thanks for the help, but I think if it gets too spread out Steve might not notice it and fix it. Link to post Share on other sites

Neo Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 (edited) You know when the when you have someone hosting your group build on another forum Edited August 15, 2012 by Neo Link to post Share on other sites
ALF18 Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 I for one am getting a little peeved at how long it is taking. I've been looking forward to the Living History GB for months. Now that it is supposed to be on, I have started a kit, but the WIP is going to suffer from time-lag amnesia as a result. ALF Link to post Share on other sites

terrysumner Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 Hey guys...Steve is away for a couple of weeks. He should be back soon and I will make sure he gets these messages.... Link to post Share on other sites
jester292 Posted August 16, 2012 Author Share Posted August 16, 2012 Thank you Terry. I assume that we all realize real life happens outside of these forums, but communication lines seem to be thin or nonexistant for Group Builds recently. Most puzzling is that they are "pre-approved" for start and finish dates with little progress when the time comes around. Maybe the GB Moderating team needs to be granted more power for their subforum. Aaron Link to post Share on other sites
phantom Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 A temporary page has been started for both overdue GBs. Link to post Share on other sites
terrysumner Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 Us guys on the moderator team don't have any powers to do those things. Steve Filak does but he hasn't been around a while that I know of. Hopefully when Steve returns from vacation we can get this straightened out for y'all.... Link to post Share on other sites
