    Library

    Figured to download some data before I could not post anymore but the virtual library, over at the AMCA site, does no recognise my login in via the forum. Data requested asks for way to much. It asks for everything except my membership number. Since the library is free to members of the AMCA, why can't I download just for logging into the forum or supplying my membership number ? Thanks, Paps

    I believe the same new rules that apply to the forum will also apply to having library access. No tickee no laundry.

      The logging-in process for the virtual library is UPSIDE DOWN, is all, Paps:

      If your membership number was enuf, any fool could make up a number and get in for free.

      But it doesn't have to be "one size fits all" requiring a complete application again, with ALL of your registration information, just to access the library. The way it is now is upside-down: They ask all the personal information before asking "Are you an AMCA member?" and you must type "YES" or "NO."
      That's backwards. They need to put that first, and if you are a member and confirm that it's you, with just one piece of info that only you would know, open it up to download as a member without all the complete billing address and phone number nonsense. That part should be tied on the back side right to your existing membership, as soon as you confirm that you are who you say you are. I know that's the hardest part of all this online ordering rigamaroll, but it's what is needed to quell all the uproar, regarding this forum and the library.

          That is leftover from the old system. Once you say you are a member and continue on you will get the download free.

              I click on Agree to Terms and Conditions, type YES in the box asking if I'm an AMCA member and voila!!! I go to checkout with a zero balance.

                  the problem might be that your membership expired on 4/1/2010
