Would anybody mind........

It's up to you guys. I think it is a shame, that with the quality of work you all do to have it showcased on TV would be an apt vindication of what you all do. I don't need it to be a showcase or infomercial for S-B (sure a little mention would have been nice ) but YOU guys are the artists, YOU guys would be the "stars"... So that's all up to you.

If its off then its off - we'll move on again to PlugFest. I think some of you missed an opportunity to have your craft shown in a different light on a different medium. But not exactly the end of the world either Your work still speaks for itself here and in the water - where it counts....

I vote no.

Last time I checked this site didnt need any "press" We run plenty of raffles etc to raise dough to keep lights on.

Will I also be chastized for my opinion as CS was?

If your work speaks for itself, dont interrupt it

NO, but, Thank You..

A lot of different reasons, after some long thought.
None of which have anything to do with the finacial affairs of OTW, or OTW/TV, I am sure they make a handsome profit, but, after all, they are a business, and the bottom line, is the bottom line, last I checked, it was the American way.

As for being an Outcast, I've always worn the badge, with Honor

Chastized, no absurd yes.

OTW is a business and they didn't come to me I went to them.

I find it totally absurd that what they make from 11 minutes of film time is the big discussion when it was done to simply help the site which through more membership possibly generated by the exposure could lead to added revenue for John to keep this place at the level it is. I was wrong I guess.

So, I guess maybe we could get back to debating if John would allow members to sell there stuff for "parts" money then? That discussion is okay. What part of the "parts" money would come back to John or each of us that are registered memebers for that? Hmmm. interesting thought!

Or how about sponsors spamming the hell out of plug buildiing threads with new colors or "new" designs which are actually rip-offs of Gibbs and others and thereby, by ripping off the design, be able to make a profit from that? And shouldn't that spam be on the sponsor's forum?

%$%$%$%$ plugfest and all that goes with it. I know I asked if anyone minded but I didn't think it would get this absurd. What a waste of time.

Nothing about the money or a raffle, just thought it would be nice to show some of the great work by the guys here - that's all. And not that the work needs to be shown on TV - just thought it would be nice...

CS on the otherhand is a greedy, tightwad. Just selling off one of the Norris squids or hiw wooden atoms would get him three years of OTW maggie
