HOPPER 3 UPGRADES

[bobvick]

I'm seriously considering becoming a "pub" member after just a few short weeks in this forum. People tend to be very helpful and I dont see much of a problem paying a small fee to get great advice etc!

Thanks Satellite guys.

Good to have a new member that participates in discussions. I have been a Pub member for years, for much the same reason as you are saying, I have been helped ALOT over the years at this forum, and think it is only right to help "keep the lights on."

Scott - for the members that quoted your entire first post, drop them down to the bottom of the list....

Sorry, I was guilty. I was responding from my iPhone and did not see the quote until it was too late.

To be honest they are probably avoiding those internal routes due to instruction of not upgrading until the customers are taken care of.

i was not aware of any instruction to wait until customers were taken care of? i got on a list with dash and on here in hopes of getting it sooner than later. if there was anything internal about this, i was not made aware. my fsm is on a similar list as well, but maybe because he has a beta account?

Well said Bob, the only reason I want people to become Pub Members is because they want to help support the site and keep the lights on, I don't want them doing it to get a Hopper 3.

I am not saying that as fact. That was the instruction on the 1&2 releases. Employees were suppose to wait until instructed. Could be different this time around, I am not with Dish anymore so I don't know actually, on the side, started my new job today... First one in 2 years since leaving Dish... It was long and boring as I remember. Haha. Hope everyone gets their H3 as they desire... Just throwing some ideas out.

Congrats on the new job man! And ya, to my knowledge there was nothing communicated about how and when to upgrade. So I decided to spit in the wind and see what happens....lol

Thanks. I did the same for both receivers and had them upon launch. If people start asking, just fly under the radar.

What are you doing now?

 

[ChadT41]

Call center work again. Break from college(burnt out). Working for DriveTime, but I need to research them because there is some major weird things afoot. That's all I'll say there, but I am curious to see their financials. About to check the SEC filings. I will be restructuring loans for delinquent consumers. The atmosphere is fantastic there though. That part I am impressed with.

No, not at all, leave it to you to misconstrue. I have no dog in this race. Just seems to me that "members", like when they first used to join, and needed, what 3-5 posts to send PM's, should have to go through a "wait" period for full benefits.

Take that up with Scott then... But it seems your complaining is a bit late now, huh?

Hope you enjoy the new job, as much as one can enjoy a job

I am told no receivers have been shipped to retailers yet.

No go for me this morning, trying again tomorrow.

LOL, not complaining, merely observing.

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

And I am guessing you didn't see that I pre announced when I was going to be putting up the waiting list?

I tried my best to make it fair to all.

 

[DustNavy]

I sent him an email, he stated that they were shipped to him today overnight, and they would ship them out tomorrow. That was as of 12:30 central today. I guess we will find out tomorrow if Dish Depot sends out any tracking numbers.

Awesome, thanks for the update! Fingers crossed for tomorrow!

Can't wait to get my hands on this thing.I am a NHLcenter ice subscriber and the thought of putting 4 games on the screen at once is gonna be the bomb.

I joined around the same time as you and decided to take the pub plunge last week. Awesome community of very helpful people. It unlocks another side of the community that is just as cool, so all in all, it's worth it.

Scott you've done WAY more than due diligence!! You are owed a great deal of gratitude by all the members here for all you have done for us and continue to do. You really are one of the good guys. I for one can say that no other site that I belong to regardless of topic has the feel of Satelliteguys. It really is the best site and I believe that is because of your dedication and I along with many others greatly appreciate all you do.

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

Thank you.

Agree, I decided today to become a Pub member, and not because of the Hopper lol, But I enjoyed talking to all of yous and even the debates, It's all in good fun and good information also comes out of many of them debates,

And definitely my hats off to Scott, He takes time to talk to all of his members when ever where ever, he never has left me hanging on any questions or PM I've ever sent him, or asked him in the public forums.
Many other forums with Mods are like robots, and never give information equally from member to member.

Scott makes everyone feel equal IMO and for that, he is greatly appreciated.
Thanks for everything!
