Don't do it if you think it will be a waste of time or if you don't want to share information.
Generally panelists get a ticket plus one guest. Maybe they should start paying panelists but that is not the case for the time being.
The real "secret" of most people's success is HARD WORK - I don't care if you are a tgp, ll, seo, or whatever expert- none of it comes without effort and daily grind. So no matter what "trade secrets" are revealed 99% of the audience is not going to take advangtage of them.
Being a panelist is a good way to build exposure and make good connections. If you think others would be better suited to be up there with you then let them know.

far-l, that is the problem...they are not reaching out. Where are they? Where have they posted since Aly left?
I do understand that AVN is probably good for your business. Hell, they are good for any Adult Video business. But for the average webmaster, they really have nothing to offer. There is no way an average webmaster with a family can afford the $3k + or - to go to a show so close to Christmas.
The bottom line to me is they have done great things for the Adult Video Business. But they really haven't done anything for the average webmaster other than overcharge for a show that is a shell of what it once was.
Let me say this really quick. I don't hate AVN. I just believe they really need to have a front man that can make changes that the webmasters (their customers) complain about. Aly did her best but Ray Charles could see that she really couldn't make the changes that are needed.
And let me apologize if it seems that I am lumping you in with AVN. I know you don't represent them and you are only trying to make the Peace.
But that is my point...where is their representative?
Wow, did I get off on a tangent. This really had nothing to do with being on a panel or not, did it?
For that, I apologize.
