Default 22 days and counting....

...and Expercraft is still not working properly. I've left 3 VMs and sent 4 emails to Rob. ZERO response. Should we all just give up or is there a chance he'll get this back up and running?? Anyone have any communication with him recently?

Just the same as yours - emails and voicemails go unanswered.

Stopping the monthly payments for the website might get his attention, but only if everyone did it.

I just got a PayPal email notification for my November payment. They have a dispute center. Ill be trying that next. Probably include October as well. It's only $10 bucks over the 2 months but it's sort of the principle of the whole thing. Not to mention what it's going to take to port it all over to a functioning alternative.

Regarding my Kitlog Pro experience, I haven't tried all the corrections he suggested yet, but I ended up exchanging several emails with Matt. I needed some online posts deleted, and he was having trouble deleting one of them... it took a few days, but he hung in there and got the job done. So no complaints here about him responding. He has, and he does.

Finally decided to bail on expercraft and bought kitlog Pro. Seems like a nice product so far....

Default Maybe I am too naive...

At nearly 50 years old, maybe I am still naïve or have just maintained my faith in humanity far too long, but the fact that Rob Riggen has made ZERO attempt to reach out to his Expercraft subscribers or posted ANY information about the failed performance of the website (the website for which "Users" are STILL paying a monthly fee) is beyond astonishing to me.

I have now officially left over 2 dozen emails or voice mails for this guy with no response whatsoever. Does anyone have any insight into what is going on with him? I sincerely hope nothing terrible has happened to him. But at least that would explain the otherwise complete lack of consideration for paying customers.

Same here. The only progress I've seen is that the error message I get from the website now points to "Line 551" whereas last week it was "Line 647".

If this is the same Rob Riggen, this is a possible reason he is having trouble focusing on repairing the site. Hope he gets it all in order.
