Is "contact" actually taken seriously at LD? I get the message that there will be a response within 48 hours, but 48 hours have already passed a few times .... with no response.
Or is that a part that doesn't work particularly well?

Since no question has been received from Rouranto, you will have to be a little clearer to whom and about what that question was asked. You can also send this to me via a personal message.

Where do you get that message?

I only see when I use 'Contact' (at the bottom of the page, the message:
"We strive to send your mail within 48 hours. In the meantime, check out our frequently asked questions"

An striving is not an obligation of results, rather an intention.  I understand from that message that it sometimes takes longer can last.  I think it also depends on the question itself, and on the (hectic?) circumstances at that time.  As a user, I can see that it is a hectic period at the moment: many parts newly developed with the usual teething problems that can happen very quickly and be resolved appropriately.

I have no idea who is getting those 'Contact' messages, but there won't be many.  Maybe Collectioneur ?

If it's not an overly personal or sensitive question is you can always try the forum here.  Then a few dozen other users think along, and a few hundred users also enjoy m ee.

True, is a "statement of intent" and I understand that it can take longer, but as long as you don't receive a response it is also difficult to see if anything actually happened (and my telepathic abilities are rather on the weak side currently), or maybe that message never got through.
The eternal problem with lack of communication: you're kind of guessing about it....

https://www.lastdodo.nl /nl/users/Collectioneur: Apparently the name of the logged in user is not automatically used in the contact form, but this has to be entered manually. There I used my real name (being Laurent). If it is not found, I will send you the question directly.

Thank you both for the feedback.

It could of course also be that 'Contact' is no longer working properly. Quite a lot has changed on the site in the last year.
Whether you use the real name or your avatar name from LD shouldn't matter much. After all, you must provide an email address. And the response should be sent to that email address. In principle you could say that 'Contact' is mainly intended for users who are not (yet) registered. To get in touch with LD. Registered users can always use the LD messaging system or the Forum.
As a test, I once filled out a 'Contact'. If nothing comes of that, there is work to be done Collectioneur

Mea Culpa
We have discovered that lately no more messages have been forwarded via the contact form from logged in users. We are still looking for the exact cause of this.
We apologize for this and request anyone who has recently submitted a message via the contact form and has not received a response, to do so again.

The contact form was of course immediately adapted and improved. The name and email address of logged in users are now entered directly, so that there can be no misunderstanding.

Thanks a lot for posting it on the forum. So another mistake has been made and has been corrected. And 'Contact' is something super important.
Still unbelievable weather...from 'problem report' to 'solved' in less than 24 hours :)
