No, not you neither

Naw...

They are gone now. Pretty shy you know.

It was not.

Yep, understand about the anxiousness. Of course! I always remember the good people who come here. Great! Gun safety first and then the fun of shooting!

Yes, even @Vape83 has been doggedly quiet

And the thing is that people fall for it.

Wow, yeah!!! First time that has happened!

No joke lol, I had one person with an IP from the UAE, and with limited english, who wanted to talk to me "as if from Google." Everything he type included "as if in Google" or some deviation. He wanted to know who I was "as like Google." So after I was amused with his emails, I blocked his IP and it stopped.

And you do need to respond to the validation email so check your spam folder and whitelist NavyAdvancement.com if you haven't received it.

If on the registration form, something look suspicious with your response, I won't approve the registration. There are some bad guys wanting to register daily so I take measures.

How long have you been in the Navy? "All me bloomin' life "MC/SC/C"! Me mudder was a mermaid, me fodder was a King Neptune. I was born on the crest of a wave, and rocked in the cradle of the deep. Barnacles and kelp is me clothes. Seaweed is me hair. Every tooth in me head is a marlin spike. Every bone in me body is a spar. When I spits, I spits tar. I am tough, I is, I am, I are.

If the youtube is related to the discussion

Otherwise, what do you recommend we talk about.

As has been the case, on this forum, in years past, this place is to share scuttlebutt. When people gather in a group in person, they share info. I doubt someone will tell them they are tired of them talking about whatever they heard. And we have gotten some good intel in the past.

Senior Chief is a totally different ballgame. It does not follow the typical Triad release.

Right, especially those prone to the melodramatic with those lingering facial expressions. "I can't believe you are not a Chief yet!!!" ruf, bow wow!!

Well, the last time it was done on a Friday was 2009. Christyl posted a copy a few post back. Even before that I remember the chatter about "not releasing on a Friday" but there were still some releases. Don't know... As far as the advance release for Triad, I think it is inconsistent. Not sure if they do it all the time (actually pretty sure) and I can't remember it being a requirement anyway. A while back, not many on this forum were aware of the notice so I posted a copy. I later realized that they don't give notice every time or maybe I couldn't find the copies.

Don't forget folks!! Members who add a profile picture NOW are eligible to win a 6++ month PAID vacation on a grey ship with a voyage to internationally renown hot spots!! And I'm NOT talking about MIAMI!!! Add your profile pic today!!

I don't think so, they would have to announce that they are releasing the public copy in less than 24 hours. That is part of the current timeline. 24 hours Triad, then public release.

Thanks, so far so good!

Not sure. And I had a copy some time back, and said "here is an example" but don't remember where I got it. Hopefully, someone has more info.

I don't see a release to Triad on a Friday. That means the public release would be a Saturday.

No, we would have been notified of the release to Triad. It would then be release 24 hours later to the public.
