We kid ourselves that how we come across on a board makes a BIG difference to our success. We are manufacturers, bus conductors or shop owners and how we deal with each other has little to no effect on consumers.

We produce a product or bring buyers to the mall or sell it. Do you really think how we relate with each other makes any difference to a guy with his dick in his hand?

Yes we can all kiss each others asses, boost egos and act like the main man. But when a surfer hits a site if it does not make him horny enough to get his credit card out, you lose.

Yes you can be a major character to all the guys here who make $500 a month driving traffic, but unless your site, traffic or product is EXACTLY what the surfer wants you rely on minnows of the industry to deal with you because you're a "Character"

I just got back from Amsterdam and on another board they were flaming me for not going to the parties. I go to a show to do business, to make money, not pose with a bunch of free loaders at a party. And if you know me personally you know I'm not a shy person.
