A Guitar And Gear Support Forum

He hasn't appeared to have received the info on the new site. I saw someone tried posting in the Major Tom thread in reply to him but the post has been deleted. dearlpitts thinks this is the end of the line for AGF, and that just isn't the case. Can anyone get ahold of him outside the old AGF?

I tried to cue him in but was banned shortly thereafter.

i just took a shot at directing dearlpitts and TomSamuels here on the old site. I expect the banhammer is coming. good riddance

several have tried multiple times to give dearlpitts the message. i don't think anyone has succeeded in making the connection yet. it's still an ongoing effort in another thread - trying to reach him on other forums he frequents

Was just skulking there and saw both posts. Hope he get the word soon, I hate that some of us can't seem to find us. The ban hammer prolly will drop , well no shame in taking a hit to save one of our people.

"I think" he is on reverb.com as "noturningback'
But I'm not on Reverb.

In the milk carton kids threads I posted that I had googled dearlpitts and found he is a member on many other forums, none of which I go to. If any of you want to, just google dearlpitts with no spaces and if you are members of squier talk or any of the other forums where his name comes up, give him a shout on one of those.

I sent him several PMs and also reached out to him in the ongoing threads on old agf before I got banned.

It appears your post got deleted at "that other place."

I had his email from when I sold him something. I just shot him a note, so hopefully he'll join us soon.

He just posted this over there ten minutes ago so I assume he hasn't gotten your email. I sent him a PM through Strat-Talk yesterday where he appears to be relatively active but I guess he didn't get that either:

"Anybody out there? Ground control to Major Tom when you hear me Major Tom here am I floating in my tin can far from the forum that once was"

Damned shame. But we have been trying.

I doubt it, your post disappeared as well not long after. They're obviously keeping a close eye out for us so I would suggest the timing of any more update posts take into consideration that they are in the SF area (PST)...

He posted over there at 4.46pm today asking where everyone was. I replied to him to direct him here (sorry, trying not to post there) and they've even auto-corrected "n e t" (with the spaces) to "c o m"

It will be interesting to see how long your post is up...

sneak him this life line if he is on their new board...

When I tried I posted 'dot fishing net (no fishing)'. I beat the autocorrect software. But got banned anyway. I tried to message him at tdpri but says he hasn't logged in there since 2014 so I'm not hopeful. [mention]RiverDog[/mention] seems like he's got the best shot. Here's hoping it comes through

Kiss of death. I'm now banned

Even though this is AGF's home now, it feels strange to be banned from a place I've been a member of for 11 years just for pointing someone to another site.

Posting over there is now the kiss of death. I'm wracking my brain trying to think of a way to hurt that guy...

I'm in

Ironically I'd pulled up all my content over the last day or two and was going to start going in & deleting it but never got around to it. There are no words for how mad I am right now. This has pissed me off more than having to 'relocate' (which I'm eternally thankful for having the opportunity to do) and proves - if any proof were needed - how they don't give a damn about the AGF community being on board with their plans.

In the scheme of things...upset that the board was sold out...BUT....this is business and we should never think anything is owed to us...so within his rights to do so. BUT BUT...I am very converned about the reports that our personal information is apparently available publicly...I have not been able to confirm any of this...but if this is the case...surely this is a violation of US privacy laws....anyone know if Mikey (original admin ?) had Major Thom's contact...if this is happening....someone needs to be alerted and an investigation started into how our personal email/info is being broadcast for any hacker to see.

The first few days personal emails and in some cases, full names (or whatever you used as a full name when you first signed up for AGF) were accessible in the MOMO AGF profiles but that is no longer the case. If I were to look at your profile over there now it would only show as "@tonray"...

Actually, I have to correct myself on this. Poking around over there for the last hour or so I discovered that while personal emails are no longer visible, some members' real names are. Just browsing through a couple threads at random, I noticed in one that me, [mention]Narsh[/mention] and [mention]Rollin Hand[/mention] all have our names show up in our individual posts. Our user profiles show both our AGF user names with the @ prefix as well as our real names. Wht some and not others I can only speculate that those of us who actually registered with MOMO after being prompted on the old AGF site are the ones who have their full names now visible...

You appear to forget that Mikey sold out to @jeffc who sold out a couple of years later to Minor Tom.

Major Tom can easily be contacted, if you know a bit of French and geography...

I'd be surprised if Major Tom was still involved. He had been working with MOMO for several months prior and probably had fulfilled his contractual obligation to them the day of his last post. While I can't tell the last day he signed on to the old site, his last active post was 5/27, the day after that last thread, admonishing the membership on their negative reaction. However, if you still want to contact him, his name is THOMAS GUERVENO and you can at this email address: webmaster@boursematch.com. If you do a search, there are plenty of other ways to get a hold of him as well:
