Yesterday I received an automated email that this site's (Overseas Brats On-Line Community) pending membership in the DODDSWorld WebRing had been "expired".

So how does this work again?
  • Day 1 -- enroll your site & add the navigation code (note to self: remove their useless navigation code from Overseas Brats On-Line Community)
  • One week later -- no response, DODDSWorld moderator is out to lunch
  • A few days later -- notice that DODDSWorld no longer has a moderator
  • In fact -- DODDSWorld is up for "adoption", but if you click on the link to adopt it, you're told that no "adoptions" are being processed
  • Day 15 or thereabouts -- file support ticket with WebRing
  • No timely response from WebRing
  • Eventually receive lame response from WebRing that DODDSWorld is being handled by "Community Management", so just suck it up & be patient, and with this they consider the matter "resolved and closed by Member services":

  • Filed support ticket with WebRing for non-response on pending addition to the Military Brats WebRing; after automatic acknowledgement, there was no follow up whatsover on that support ticket
  • Day 31 or thereabouts -- receive email that Overseas Brats On-Line Community has been "expired" from DODDSWorld; have to conclude that "Community Management" isn't up to the challenge. I am also "sorry for [my] wait".
