  Re: member packets (continued)
 
(...) Andy, I'm sorry there has been so much confusion about all of this. A large part of it is my fault. As of 14 Sep 2000 we intended to remove all mentions of member packets in the activation emails that go out. However, at that time, I missed a (...)

  Re: member packets (continued)
 
(...) You still missed a spot. Look where new members enter their postal address, and especially the IMPORTANT note: (URL) Straaberg, Denmark (URL) (22 years ago, 31-Jan-03, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: member packets (continued)
 
I joined a little over a year ago and remember seeing this about a packet. Since it never said what was included I just figured it was some paperwork, maybe an "official member" card or certificate, or something with the Lugnet logo to (...) (22 years ago, 31-Jan-03, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: member packets (continued)
 
(...) I'd have to agree. For me, the real important part of being a member isn't the membership packet. It's the community, the ideas, the talk, the pics, and the fun. While I understand some consternation about not replying to communication as (...) (22 years ago, 1-Feb-03, to lugnet.admin.general)

  Re: member packets (continued)
 
...And besides, it seems awfully pushy to take people to task for not handing out membership cards and papers when web pages about Faith, Friends, Music, Summer Madness, TEC, Alpha, and Contact Me are promised but not delivered. "Let he among you (...) (22 years ago, 1-Feb-03, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: member packets (continued)
 
(...) It says "To which address should we send you membership package" just below the address fields. Maybe something like: "At some time we would like to send out a membership package. If we ever do, to which address would you like us to send it?" (...) (22 years ago, 1-Feb-03, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: member packets (continued)
 
There is also still a large section about membership packets on that page under the "All Set?" header near the bottom. It really is sad that we have over 1000 members who are still waiting for these things. Bryan (22 years ago, 3-Feb-03, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: member packets (continued)
 
(...) What's really sad to me is that people are so selfish about something as insignificant as this. I don't believe that of those 1000 members, all 1000 are pulling their hair out and stomping around the room with steam coming out of their ears (...)

  Re: member packets (continued)
 
(...) I think you are taking it a bit too far. I also am not losing sleep over this. But does that mean others should not want it, or be concerened about it? They were given the impression they would get one - so are they wrong for wanting it? Maybe (...) (22 years ago, 3-Feb-03, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: member packets (continued)
 
(...) Mark, You might be right about that...perhaps bringing out selfishness is a bit harsh, especially since there are so many of such different ages. But I also have to think that talking legal action (see (URL) )is taking it a bit far, too. I (...) (22 years ago, 4-Feb-03, to lugnet.admin.general)
