This indusutry.. ARGG - this kinda shit wont happen in the IT or other industry's, you would be out on your ass in a second.

But here, its the way of the day! Flame flame flame! Your idea is shit, your shit, dont try, blah blah blah.

Sorry, i seem like an asshole, im just tired of having small minded yank kids pull apart my ideas.

Anyone who knows me knows im a pretty easy giong guy, im always trying to help people, but fuck this, people talk to me like this, and ill defend myself.
The problem is, you didn't come up with a new idea. You repackaged a very old idea, and presented it in such a way that it came across as, essentially, a scam. I'm not saying you're a scammer - I'm saying you look like one. If your posts make you appear untrustworthy, you might want to work on your posting style.

You're trying to pass yourself off as a business-minded person. Fine, then act like one. I have a nice handful of email addresses and I get more than my share of spam. Thirty a day? Try thirty an hour. It's called filtering software - look into it. (And please, don't expect anyone to believe that using a Yahoo address somehow relieves your of spam issues.)

I've looked at your posts. You are not a veteran in this business. There's nothing wrong with being a newbie, but please do not pretend you know more than those of us who have been making a living at this. Fresh ideas are always welcome. Your ideas are not fresh. That's not a flame, it's a fact.

Grow a thicker skin. "Constructive criticism" doesn't mean "criticism that agrees with what I already think." Humility will get you a long way, too. Instead of bashing everyone who disagrees with you, consider the possibility that they might be right.

Finally, I don't know whom precisely you're referring to when you use terms such as "warez kiddies", "yank kids", etc., but I think it's safe to say the vast majority of the posters here are professional adults, and your insults are wasted.

Rechannel some of your self-righteous anger into something constructive, and you may very well get somewhere in life.
