Everyone is entitled to their opinion, but our staff busts its ass year round to put out the best possible product, so when people say stuff like 'AVN should die,' or 'AVN are a bunch of scumbags,' it angers me. What pisses me off more, is when people I know, people I've hung out with and supposedly have a good relationship with, people who have all of my contact info say it. If you are too small to contact me and tell me what issues you have personally, then don't pretend to be my friend. Be my enemy, and we'll leave it at that. Otherwise, be a man and talk to me about it or show me the respect of staying out of the bashing.
2. People whom I've met on countless occasions, who pretend to have no idea who I am, and people who pretend they want to do business in order to get the perks of the people that we actually do business with. Oddly enough, these seem to be the same people who only "know me" when they need a favor or want to complain about something. So, no, I won't help you find a job the next time you need one. No, I don't have anymore panel slots left, ever. No, I cannot get you a badge.

So you're in PR dep for AVN ? If you really are, they should fire you right now. Nothing personal but this is one of the most unprofessional rant I've ever seen.
This is a business, it's not entirely about making friends... but one thing it's really NOT about, is making enemies. Now you're asking people who disagree or don't like your work to be your enemies ?
You might be very good at 'busting' your ass all year long, but with comments like this it just destroys a part of what your built. You should definitly stay away from the public spotlight if you don't know better...
