Thats one reason (among others) ive decided to stop writing for them. >mailbox and I can't stand a warped magazine... but right now I'm forced to >wait for my complimentary copy... which comes with the cheque... > Your ahead of me. I usually get a check in an envelope - no magazine, letter, business card, nothing! On very rare ocassions a copy of the magazine would show up weeks later (very rare). I understand the odd position Chris and Nick are in and have no ill feelings towards them (I also understand their not to blame). Personally I think their great guys and I like em both. My beef is with Croftward their policies and performance.
