Still annoyed that she has not yet put in any sort of appearance on the boards other than the one post on Announcements.

Is this a paid position with GR ?

Researching:
PLEASE DO NOT: send me information concerning your thread on the board as it should be posted on your request where all members can see it. PLEASE DO NOT: ask me for help with lookups as they should be placed on the boards to get the best possible result. PLEASE DO NOT: open your tree just because I have posted information on your thread as I will not be related. THANK YOU. Researching Carter, Cass and Walker in England.

I think it's a job handed around ............... no-one seems to really want it, at least that's the impression given by the lack of appearances over the last 2 years.

It WAS set up 3 or 4 years ago as a "job" to be done by someone on staff (as against a new hire) in response to all the complaints from members.

but interest has dropped off ..... just like any interest in GR, despite all the assurances being given that they are working


I posted this on FB .................

------
The impression given, once again, is that GR is far more concerned about this free page rather than taking care of the people who are paying to use the main site.

I am beginning to believe you are truly trying to run GR into the ground, and hoping that the members on there will stop complaining and disappear into the woodwork.

Their response today .............

Genes Reunited That of course isn't the case. We take all feedback on board and we're currently assessing the best way for the Genes boards to be managed
