Earth Dog Oct 26-27th – Volunteers Needed!

Posted on by Gem City WebAdmin

Attention Gem City Members
GCDOC Earthdog is looking for a couple volunteers to be onsite during the trials. The trials usually start around 8 and end by 4 on Saturday and Sunday. If you can only be there a few hours that is fine. Hopefully we can get enough volunteers to hold the trial. If anyone is available to help please email [email protected] and let me know what day/s time/s works good for you.

Thanks,
Rachel

Crashing the website – Registration

Posted on by Gem City WebAdmin

YES! We opened classes!

YES! I sent out the email to the membership first, as I always do, before trying to send one to the general public. I had to spend 30 minutes removing MEMBERS email addresses from the PUBLIC email list so that we could still use the free service to notify the public that the registration is open.

PLEASE DO NOT SIGN UP FOR THE MAILCHIMP EMAIL NOTIFICATION LIST IF YOU ARE ALREADY A MEMBER! You get the email through the membership list, and you do not need the 2nd email to tell you that registration is open.

If you were sitting there, hitting refresh over and over, you have locked up the website by doing so. In your rush to get into the class you wanted, you have caused it to be slow, “jump all over the place” and not take your money.

Please! Do not panic. Do not encourage your friends to sit and click on the refresh button over and over waiting for it to open. Do not encourage non-members to worry about getting into classes or not. It is making it all dramatically worse, and even causing me to not be able to open classes on time, and worse, if there is a problem, I cannot get in to the website to correct any problems because the system is busy trying to show you exactly the same screen as before when you hit refresh.
