Muscle Turtle Posted September 22, 2005 Share Posted September 22, 2005 So I bent a red nail a while back, that same day I called Ironmind and told them, the next day Strossen emailed me and told me he would get back to me. 3 weeks later I email him and ask him if he has found anyone, he says that he cannot find anyone who is qualified in my area but he will get back to me asap. Ok, so two rants here, its been 5 weeks and wtf takes so long to find a person? and what is a qualified person? There are powerlifters here who are some of the nations best and tehy arent qualified I guess? It pisses me off just because I want on the Red Nail Roster and im not exactly getting the chance to do so. So ther is my bitter rant...

He does run a company and its possible that you got lost in the shuffle, blowing off steam on a open board will not solve your issue any faster. It is only 4:45pm his time and I bet if you email him he will respons today Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bdckr Posted September 23, 2005 Share Posted September 23, 2005 I'll echo what gripperm says. I wouldn't be surprised if he's just got a lot on the go. He's gotten back to me about some questions really quick. Seems like a reasonable guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EricMilfeld Posted September 23, 2005 Share Posted September 23, 2005 Turtle, first off, congrats on nailing a Red with the IM pads! I haven't agreed with all of the choices Dr. Strossen has made concerning his dealings with certain aspects of the grip world, but he's definitely a very reasonable and genuine man. He has my respect. I would think a little "reminder" type e-mail would do the trick. By the way, where do you live? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

George Champlin Posted September 23, 2005 Share Posted September 23, 2005 I emailed him tonight at 8:30 my time about a RT and some nails and he got back to me in a hour. Try emailing him again it is quite possible that you got lost in the shuffle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muscle Turtle Posted September 23, 2005 Author Share Posted September 23, 2005 I shot him an email a bit earlier, hopefully he will get back to me soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bencrush Posted September 23, 2005 Share Posted September 23, 2005 Congrats man! And secondly, Strossen has been very nice to correspond with. He is surely trying his best. He actually wants to see you on the list, and it only helps him sell more Red Nails. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
