Yea, that's about it. I would like a "summary," not a whole report. Ultimately, it all comes down to everyone's individual perspective anyhow. I've been an exhibitor at Internext, and more often a reporter for AVNOnline. I'll be a featured speaker this week at Internext in Florida. I think, that maybe allot of opinion is about what they THINK it should be, for them, as opposed to what it actually is. And I'm by no means a devote' Of Internext. For us, exhibiting there isn't the best investment of my marketing dollars. Nothing wrong with it, just not the choice I will make after the first year. I also had a major complaint, which is long gone water under the bridge. As a result, I don't exhibit anymore. That's how I voted with my dollars. But When I find myself having a negative opinion, I say "Ok, but what if it wasn't there at all?" Then we'd complain 'cause there wasn't anything. 'Cause I'm not gonna run a show. I think any "show" has value, in that, it's an opportunity to meet with others you would not normally meet with, and a way to see "new and exciting thing." Adult webmasters are an odd lot to start with. Most work out of their homes, I'll bet many of them roll out of bed, and into "the office," just a few feet away. They start out as an anti-social lot. How do you make a "happy" show for them? I mean, let's face it, we all want to go to a show, see what everyone else is doing, find that million dollar idea that will only work if WE do it, meet cool people, go to a good party, and accidentally walk into a hotel room/ pool cabana/ beach hideaway/ (fill in your own fantasy here) with two hot porn chics making out, that suddenly decide we're the answer to their sexual needs at the moment. Now, do I paint an accurate picture, or what? Last edited by EmporerEJ; 2007-07-31 at 04:45 PM.. Reason: spell check, spell check, spell check |

 The long & short of it is that Miami is way too expensive & Vegas is a distant 2nd to AEE as far as importance in their eyes (I do love giving a seminar in the basement of the hotel as the kitchen staff pushes a cart behind the panel area) AVN takes care of the video companies - and from what I'm told, they take care of them very well. The everyday webmaster that's building sites & galleries & maintaining link lists & tgp's & blogs is like the redheaded step-child. That's why I love that XBiz's forums came along 6 months after I lost all faith in AVN  Like I said before - this is all old news to most people. Do some reading & listen to some audio & you'll be caught up to where we left this 18 months ago  |

Yea, that was 18 months ago. So let me see if I've got this right...... Post here infrequently, get a rash of shit when you do post something.... Post here, and get a rash of shit for responding to another poster's comments. (Who apparently broke the "Thanks to zoezane for bringing up a really old thread for no fucking reason" Rule) Oh, and she apparently did have a reason, as she posed several questions in her "no fucking reason" section of her post. After learning she broke the expiration rule, I'm not surprised she didn't post again. |

I didn't re-start this thread, I just added to it after someone else did. I caught my eye, so away I went. I was responding to Zoe, and then you chimed in with the "my opinion 19 months ago." I wasn't aware there was an expiration date to threads. If it bothered you so much, why did you post into it again, and again???? And what's wrong with reviewing an old position? You make a determination 19 months ago, and then locked in for life on that? That explains allot. |
