Seriously the reason this happens is ever thing is sponsored now days. You go to a show and you can eat drink and even get your hotel air fare and badges sponosred.

I am sorry this happened to you like this.
LOL! I entirely blame Cams.com/AFF.com for this industry being in the current state of affairs.

You spoiled the shit out of everyone!

Lars stop spending money on parties and dinners and buy that damn SL500!

Love,

Yeah I was going to go to that but threw my back out playing hockey that morning... No way I'd be able to dodge paint balls..

DH is right, but it's even deeper. Webmasters expect things for free. The reason there aren't more parties in the biz is that webmasters expect free cocktails all night long. I don't think I can count 20 current companies that have supplied open bar for a large group. And when you do it, do they reward you with traffic?

I have a nickname for people who don't reach for the bill when it comes... I call them "Alligator Arms". I also hate it when people suddenly have to take a ten minute shit during the time the bill is likely to arrive.

They figured he was a rich mofo and would just pick up the entire tab.

DH
I was there and we ended up paying more than our share to make sure the whole bill was covered :2 cents:

Fucking hell...

No offence to you at all Odie, you know how much I love ya but that is the reality. In LA a couple of weeks back, Magnus went out to dinner with a couple of our buddies from COHF and word quickly got around for anyone that wasn't attending a sponsored dinner that there were a few people having dinner in the hotel restaurant.

Anyways this dinner was very clearly a "non-sponsored dinner" from the getgo. But a whole pile of people ended up showing up..

Well inevitably the cheque showed up and everyone bolted like the cheap fucks that they were. Magnus, Joel from Gamma and a few other people got stuck with the bill.

This situation has happened to me personally so many times I care not to remember. Hence the reason I won't go to a dinner that will inevitably turn into a clusterfuck with people either forgetting their wallets or expecting me, Sleazydream or Platinum Dave to pay LOL!

Anyways I don't want to talk down or discourage a webmaster dinner it's just that if it's going down please make sure you bring your wallet and don't be a cheap fuck when the bill shows up.

We remember cheap asses ;)

DH
I totally understand where you are coming from as I for some reason am the asshole at the end of the dinner that has to go around and collect money from everyone. Since I am the one that does the organizing, I feel responsible for the bill even tho I am NOT the sponsor in any way but just the organizer! Thank gawd I'm good at extorting money from ppl! :winkwink:

You WILL be at the party on Sat night tho right?? I gota booth with your company name on it! :)

i have freinds that do that to me @ stripclubs! and yeah they are my cheap ass fucking frineds... now I've learned who to go out with and who to buy a drink/dinner and who not to.

when people know you make the big bucks they expect to just pay for everything. I don't know what they think, that you will be there for them for the rest of their lives paying for their shit?

I can't belive people pay for their flight hotel and shit and then just take off on a dinner bill... wtf? :1orglaugh

I remember Miami, 2 years ago when Giga threw that party at I think it was Mansion. I couldn't believe how many people were complaining about how they actually had to pay for drinks at the club, and that drinks were $10-$12. I'm thinking.. 'welcome to the real word, where you have to pay for alcohol." Back then it showed the mindset how everyone thinks everything is free and comes easy.

I'm surprised you didn't make Magnus wash dishes.

This is the sad state of affairs that this side of the industry has come to. A couple years back we did both Internext and AEE in Vegas. I was pleasantly surprised to see how the video side of things handles these type of situations. There are dinners every night. But if you are not the elite of the elite you are blown off and they really don't give a shit.

I see it at every show that exists now days though. I hear people talking about going to this dinner or that dinner, and I laugh cause I know some of them don't do a lick of business with the sponsor or organizer of that dinner, and they are just going for the free food and drinks.

This was actually a large concern of mine when Odie asked if she should set up a dinner for Friday night.

I have come up with the idea that whoever comes to dinner on Friday night will be well aware that it is not a sponsored dinner and they are responsible for their own bill. If anyone decides to skip out or leave someone else with the bill they will NOT get into the party on Sat night. I will have no problem yanking their name off the list for Sat night.

Harsh? Maybe... But then again so is freeloading.

We could go that far. We will have to see how much they decide to pay to get into the party and if that makes up for their bill Friday night

Eric 11-30-2005 01:14 AM
The real trick here is that it isn't even so much the food as it is the drinks. I mean I have seen people order shot after shot after shot or even tons of them for several people knowing they are not paying the bill.

LOL this thread is great on so many levels.

Hey WG remember the Rainbow Room in LA couple years back with Grim Shawn, what I thought was ironic was the amount of booze this fucker ordered and clearly wasn't paying for. Timbo picked that up that night however that shit wasn't sponsored just someone sticking the bill, don't get me wrong WG you're welcome to drink on my tab anytime it's the idiots that show up I hardly know, order 20 shots of Jaeger and try and pull that shit.

NEVER get a tab at a strip club, I think this goes without saying, no matter who I'm with we always pay by the round at Cheetah's etc, alternate rounds etc because at $80-100 a round for 6-8 people that'd be one massive tab.
