a little courtesy with source checks

**KeyMastur** · 11-03-2005, 01:20 AM

hey boys and girls, when you finally get around to doing a source check, don't say something like "check this. [email protected]" - it's not my job to do source checks. i do them cause i'm a nice guy. most of the time i'm able to help. but when you say somehting like "check this", you can get help elsewhere.

if you're gonna ask, at least say "would you mind checking this source. [email protected]"

sorry, had a few vodka's on the rock at St. James in Houston and i get home to find this crap in my inbox.

Its amazing how rude some people can be!!!
The least they could do is to ask politely...

ditto...

Another issue i have is one member sending 6 PMs daily with 6 different source checks.

And this is after verifying their first source.

Mods/Vets get a lot of PMs...and while we like to help...there's a limit to the time we can give to each member.

Members should take this into consideration.

Everybody really should look at it like this: The mods don't have to do source checks for you. they are doing it out of their free time and free will. you at least could show them the respect and courtesy they deserve. Final.

**seth gecko** · 11-07-2005, 05:00 PM

I agree totally

Exactly. "Could you please do me the favor" and "thanks in advance" are not that difficult to write. Some people just don't have manners.

Oops. I will try to do better.

It's called "auto-delete and negative to the read message confirmation".

I hear you Key!!!!!!

Yeah, anything that has "hello" as the subject line is usually a source check request.

**oldandgrim** · 11-08-2005, 11:10 AM

Source check please

Is this a good source to have with my chips / fries ?

Just have to Bump St. James. The girls there are freakin talented. I think they went to a class or two. Walking on your buttcheeks is an artform that a lot of chicks there mastered.

The six dollar lunch ribeye is the bomb as well.
