Yes, I dropped the WickedFire.com bomb a ton of times, as I felt it was necessary and why the hell not? I had fun doing it, and even though our speaking session was a bit fouled up from the lack of moderator and mics for the audience, I think we can all agree it went pretty well.

The tshirts were an absolute hit. Don't blame Copeac either, blame WickedFire for it, it was designed and thought of by us, Copeac just had the balls to add their logo to it because they sponsored it. Most people saying it was done in poor taste now are people who were at the conference who thought it was funny and are just jumping onto the bashing bandwagon, which is fine with me, because let's face it, you are talking about it, so mission accomplished.

I am a bit pissed off to see Amy Armitage bash the speakers on Shoemoney's blog's comments, because Joe Whyte asked us a bunch of questions, and afterwards I remember her and Joe both thanking me and Jeremy for our answers, so not ALL the speakers were bad, come on you Aussie killer!! You know you liked what Jeremy and I said!!

I thought the show itself, the conference/exhibitor hall part was awesome, and collected over 2k business cards and shook a ton of sweaty hands, but all in the name of networking, which was the name of the game. I know we had a lot of fun, and if you want to sit there and type behind the safety net of your computer and pretend you didn't have fun, so be it, but don't think I won't call you out about it the next time I see you at a show. I'm pretty vocal about my feelings and issues especially when people lie or pretend to act one way and act another online, so if you have a problem, don't act fake about it in person and then come online to bash us, because I swear I will bring it up to you in person and take a picture of your expression and post it here for all to see. Ya dig?

:D
 


Some of the forum comments are priceless, especially the ones I read at v7n! Haha!

"Wow - I'm amazed by this thread. I, for one, will NEVER visit your forums BECAUSE of your "revolutionary" marketing methods. I'm all for joking (ask around) but I do not find humor in the word "fag" or other intolerant jibberish pointed as an insult to another group of people.

Building yourself up by tearing another down is a "no-no" in my book, and I doubt I'm alone. Your sudden rise in numbers will be short-lived I'm sure."
Well being a bi-sexual, I definately will not be going to your forum, and I can probably guess that other people in my community will not either. You have excluded a large group of people. Your outlandish rejection of homosexuals has made it so they cannot coexist with you. Do you think I want to go to a place where I will be insulted? Cause I am not insulted here for my sexuality, my atheism, my pro-choices, or my crude sense of right and wrong. The people here are more open minded then people that would exclude and insult an entire group, like you. My bisexuality is tolerated AND accepted here, I wouldn't even try to see if it would be there.
Some people need to take the stick out of their ass. Props to Dru for the responses.

The irony of it all is it seems the word fag on this board is a term of endearment

Amen...amazing how these whiney bitches want to feel victimized by every little joke about them, but if we were to complain about a joke they make, we'd be intolerant...

but I am a fag so I love all you guys!
lol
 
um? wtf are you talking about? and I don't even want to think what that means! but at least I can't wrap your thumb and index finger around my bicep. Hell my 70 year old mother could beat you in an arm wrestling contest!
