I was invited to set up a prog collaborators biography page. I typed it out, hit submit, and the next page was an empty window with all of my reviews below. Have I done something wrong or missed a step?
Thanks, E -------------

I think you need the promotion to "kick-in" before you can access to your collab. profile and submit a bio. I still see you're a Senior Member; meaning that you've not been officially promoted yet. ------------- Jesus Gabriel |

OK? So, did I miss some sort of deadline? All I know is I received an email from somebody for an invite in. I just didn't get on it right away. That's all (pardon the Genesis reference). Would like to be considered, if at all possible. E -------------

There is no deadline that I know of. But perhaps you should send a PM to that person saying you accept to be a part of the collaborators, and then eventually they promote you and you get your "collaborator hat" in a mail (the last part was a bit made up )------------- Jesus Gabriel |

Only former princesses of Wales and Lindsey Lohan. Still like the consideration for inclusion. Apologies for missing a deadline. Don't recall seeing one, however. E -------------

Just to clarify, an email was sent out by Max to every member past and present detailing the changes made to the website and forum. Some of Max's terminilogy was a little imprecise.
The only way to be "promoted" is via an invite from a member of the Admin Team.
Sorry for any confusion this has caused.

Took me over 190 reviews to become a PR, but several of my earlier reviews were very rushed and were mostly written just to get a rating on the album. I started to write "better" reviews during the end of '05. ------------- RIO/AVANT/ZEUHL - The best thing you can get with yer pants on! |

Collabs are generally indicated by the Team leaders... I remember seeing your name talked to work with some team months ago but I guess that after you cut your hair no more words were heard.  ------------- Guigo ~~~~~~ |

I'm a bit lazy as it comes to writing reviews... But I added some bands (with a help of some collabs who made entries for them), suggested a couple of others for inclusion and wrote bios for another couple ones already included which didn't have them. ------------- "Music is much like f**king, but some composers can't climax and others climax too often, leaving themselves and the listener jaded and spent."

Having seen your hair, I'd recommend a style change....the Omar Rodriguez look is so dated now...go for the Mickey combover..
 very retro...

I keep waiting for someone to say they've merged with the T to become a new member "T & A". That always sparks attention. And sells beer & cars. I could see how T & A could also perk up this site.

Hey Ben, it seems like the post-flood strategy has failed. It is up to your bass playing now to get you officially in the archives. I sometimes think there should be an Eastern European prog team to dig up and promote all the goodies from this part of the world, but then I must admit there would still be no need a Romanian collaborator. What for, to promote a 20, let's say maximum 30 prog albums patrimony? ------------- "PA's own GI Joe!"

Ok, I don't care! I don't need to be a collab! All I need is the satisfaction when somebody follows my recommendation and finds it pleasurable or when the bands I suggested get added and I can see them as a part of the archives... ------------- "Music is much like f**king, but some composers can't climax and others climax too often, leaving themselves and the listener jaded and spent."

I say, the moment The Whistler pulls out the first non-Tull/Anderson review, we should make him Prog Reviewer. Just one review though, to check whether he can bring the magic again without Tull stimulents.
