Rats
 

There is a reason we have a process in place for registration. "God" only knows who this is that just tried to register a few minutes ago....but for a good laugh give this # a call :eek:.


username: autocut
name: Ike Newton
phone number:

Thank god you didn't call to collect a bill!

just tried calling but no answer

IF you call and do get through you will get the drift of this thread....

Many folks have been put off by our registration process with the info that is required. I feel it's necessary to try to keep the rats from coming in under the door. It's not perfect but it's better than most systems.

great answering machine message haha

Leon,

I "rebuke" you for having such a rigorous registration policy!

It takes several rings before the answering machine picks up.

Funny stuff!

What does the answering machine message say?

I have been unable to get through! Keeps hanging up after 5 or so rings.

Leon,
What am I missing here, someone enlighten me??
PS I couldn't get through to the number either.

Never mind, I get it now

I finally got through. Classic!

Amen!

Ike use to own or run I believe Hobbyinsider

Please tell me this isn't a real guy? Seriously?

Somebody answered when I called and said "hello". I hung up... :confused:

oh my gosh
 

Wow.....so I just spoke with Ike on the phone. He really is the guy that used to do the Hobbyinsider. He and I had a good talk and he totally understands why I thought this was not legit. He said he was asleep and had some kind of "movies" voicemail set up. So the recording we got wasn't him it was some sort of parody or something of a yelling preacher saying he wouldn't pay his bills or taxes or something. I dunno....strangest registration I have seen yet but ...WELCOME aboard, Ike. :)

sure is, his ebay is autocut as well as on other sportscard boards--from what I remember he was actually very helpful

sorry Leon, was a bit slow on the button

Thank you
 

:) Yes, i woke up and saw i had 25 missed calls and that I received calls from Wal Mart, Dave & Adams Card World, etc. At least everyone knows me now and I'm new here :)

What an entrance Ike!

Welcome.

Welcome aboard Ike,

Not everyone gets that much attention when they register:)
RC

way to come in with a bang. great story...
welcome aboard,
--S

long time no see :) Glad I see someone familiar.

Wow, what an entrance!
 

Maybe my nickname here should be "Rats" :)

my fault
 

Now THIS is an apology I owe...my apology..... RAT!!

Kudos to our new member Ike for taking all this in stride. :)

Well, it was an honest mistake and I can see how he came to that conclusion. My phone was in the office on vibrate mode, so it didn't disturb anyone. Glad I was able to entertain while sleeping :)

Don't worry "rats" we have a demerit system setup and Leon will soon be receiving a letter from whichever Net54 lawyer chooses to represent you. It's not going to help your collection any, but you might end-up with a free cool t-shirt. Welcome aboard.

Lovely day...

Since when do good things come from situations that start out so seemingly suspicious? This is NOT the Net54 that I know. For shame. For shame.

I know, I know....
 

I know, I know, Jodi. I am all verklempt.....I think Autocut is going to fit right in with us though. He (hey autocut) certainly has a good attitude even after 25 calls :( and when we spoke on the phone.
