Looks like someone needs to decaffeinate. I can send you the name and number of my psychiatrist if you're having issues.

I'm not the most patient person, so I have sent the occasional email about QSL cards. Always courteous and in search of a solution to get the card (especially when it's one of the last few for an award). I certainly have never threatened to out a non-QSLer.
I'm sometimes slow getting my QSLs and other mail out, but they will go out if you request it. If you send me a nice email, that will expedite it. If you send me an email threatening to out me publicly, you'll probably never get one.
The great thing about LoTW is that it takes one upload to QSL everyone you work in a certain location. There should never be a time when just a "few" of those that work someone in a certain location get their LoTW confirmations.

Threatening public humiliation over QSL Cards is pretty low for any radio ham, Like you Drew all cards get responded too but it takes time even if they are direct anything between 1-5 months, if its via the bureau it could take many years.
Guess thats the bonus of LoTW its much quicker :-)

Folks,
I answer QSLs for my rover ops when I can, but everyone gets a card
eventually. Generally it takes me a month or two. Harassing and threatening me by email doesn't help at all.

Drew, this is my final email to you about my QSL cards that I sent you
an SASE for back in mid January.
You have refused to acknowledge any previous attempts to contact you
about this problem.
If you do not acknowledge receipt of my correspondence, my next action
will be in a much more public forum.
You have plenty of time to work Yuri but you can't fill out my cards?
I can tell you that I send out QSL cards to everyone I work from
portable, usually at my own expense and upload all to LoTW. It's just the way it's supposed to be done.
The ball is in your court but your time is running out. If I have not
heard from you by week's end, this will go public and not in a flattering way.
Your call.
