(...) For corrections, please send them to inv@peeron.com (note, please do not send it directly to me or the other admins). By doing that we can make sure all the admins get a copy of it - meaning it'll get done sooner. Thanks for your cooperation (...) (18 years ago, 8-Mar-07, to lugnet.inv)

(...) think that is much more important. I had an agreement with the person that was doing these that I would just send emails. I do not know how to do the data bases and such, so if I could just do emails it would make what I am doing a lot easier. (...) (18 years ago, 8-Mar-07, to lugnet.inv)

(...) Flak isn't so bad, might get them to listen. I offered to volunteer since I am retired. I have a lot of gratitude as their data base for parts is great. It took a lot of work to set up and I am amazed at the effort to get it going. They just (...) (18 years ago, 8-Mar-07, to lugnet.inv)
 
  Re: Peeron inventories
 
John, I do appreciate your submissions - as Dave mentioned, that's the only way data can get to Peeron in the first place, by users taking pictures, making inventories, and submitting corrections. Note that some of these updates are more difficult (...) (18 years ago, 8-Mar-07, to lugnet.inv) !

(...) See, now, again, this has nothing to do with anything. Yeah, you're older than I am. You're older than most AFOLs. Ok. But I don't think being older gives you a free pass to be condescending. That's the sort of thing I mean. You can say what (...) (18 years ago, 8-Mar-07, to lugnet.inv)

--snip-- (...) You don't have to put it online, John. You can keep it at home. In fact I'm sure that your statistics must be coming from some sort of database you have at home so your job is already done. When someone has an eBay auction which (...) (18 years ago, 8-Mar-07, to lugnet.inv)
 
  Re: Peeron inventories

  Re: Peeron inventories
 
--snip-- (...) I've got a good idea for you John. Since you are retired, OCD and have already re-inventoried 1000 sets why don't you start a new database. Since you have done the checking that will be a new 1000 set inventory database up to the 100% (...) (18 years ago, 8-Mar-07, to lugnet.inv) !
