Just wondering why the USFA does not post on their website the days of events earlier. The FIE has had the Louisville Junior World Cup events posted for over a month. -

I cannot understand why the USFA is not responsive to the needs and gripes of its members, this being just one. If you e-mail them, if they reply (they don't always), they tell you that they will answer your query in the future. This turns often to be a very long wait (I'm still waiting for answers promised in February and August of this year). If you call them, provided you get through and speak to a human (versus a machine), the experience is equally painful.
A great improvement in the communication would be if an officially designated USFA spokesperson would reply on this board once a week to the most pressing issues of the week. Any other suggestions out there? -

If they were more efficient at posting things they might not have to answer the phone as much. I know several people called because one of the days at Louisville was scheduled the sametime as SATs. -

Array I've never really had a problem. Most of my contact issues were based on membership cards and ratings. I got a quick response and had my card that same week. "Since when does being a patriot in America mean shutting your mouth?"

Another case of the USFA's reluctance or inability to keep their cyber-information timely. Nothing is more frightening than ignorance in action. Similar Threads -
