Quarterly Publication

[95ZR1]

When I signed up, I was informed there was a quarterly publication for the members. Quarterly means every 3 months? I've been around longer than that. Is there such a thing, when does it come out, and how do I get a copy? Also, as a member, can I download the past issues? Seems I had this same problem with the old LT5 Registry and a certain guy got crucified for not delivering his quarterly publications on time. What's up with this?

Problem is this is a volunteer organization. Volunteers have other things going on, and don't have the time to harp on members to submit content.

When was the last time you submitted anything for the publication?

And yes, the old issues are available in the members section.

Cut the crap, I've heard it all before. Bottom line is the members are paying for things they expect to get, but don't.

You may think you have heard it all, but you have not. You do not speak for me. I am very satisfied with what I "get" from the ZR-1 Net/Registry.

I read you're post, and since i've not had the pleasure of
meeting you in person, I'm assuming you really don't understand,
how the newsletter works.
ALL articles written in the newsletter, are submitted to the registry,
editor, Dwight, for consideration, and approval.
This forum, is an all volunteer publication.
meaning, if the members do not submit, articles, there are none.

Most of us are guilty, of not helping to correct the problem,
myself included. I am in the process of correcting my inactivity.
So, to become part of the solution, and not a part of the problem.

Write an article, take some pictures, tell us about you're car.
A road trip, A modification you've completed. How you found you're car
and why you wanted a ZR1. If ALL of us take time out of our busy life's,
to do this, our editor would be sifting through ton's of articles, and there would be more information, for all of us to share.
Sometimes, ya get a little more with sugar than salt.

p.s. Hi! Mom...missed you at the gathering...

Unfortnately I had to miss the Gathering this year, first one since '95. Was visiting my Son in GA who is going to college there.

I sure did miss everyone but I was watching the NCM video cams.

we are a bit behind schedule, but we DO manage to get 4 newsletters out per year, at a very affordable price considering what you get.

unless you sign up for the hard copy, it's not mailed, you just view it online.

now that BG is behind, we'll get cranking to get the next one out which should have been april as you point out.

please DO submit your ZR-1 stories. the newsletter is only as good as those that write for it. I've done my best to keep it interesting and supply plenty of ZR-1 material, please lend a hand.

we'll do our best to keep this on schedule as I totally understand that not getting what you sign up for is never acceptable.

no one pays to be treated badly. we aims to please!

Thanks for the response, Ron. Both of us have been around for a long time, and we remember what it was like when the previous registries started falling behind on commitments to the members. I don't mean to be a PITA but I don't want to see all that happen again. We both know that the quarterly publication is not late because someone didn't send in an article. Most of us should do more to submit material, but that is not the reason an issue is late. At the very least we should expect more from those with the Director titles. It doesn't have to be 40 pages every quarter, but it should be on time.
