dude...people got pissed at you because you had a dumbass reason about it... just PM him or text him even...unless you are retarded, that will not take more than 30 sec to do!
gotta agree with ben on this one, I always just call Jeff anyways. If you dont get him, call back later, no biggie, and what was the rush? Was it going to make a difference if you dont get back to him right away?
