You people are really something else. I hope this doesn't come off as too harsh.. please read it as it is intended .. just an attempt at an explanation, and Maybe even a little bit of advice..Not everyone here is cruel or mean spirited, but when someone comes in without much experience on the board, and tries to use it as a vehicle for a business proposal they should expect SOME scrutiny... after all, everyone makes mistakes, but knowing that, MOST people use spellcheck , or a proofreader before they put something out in the public to represent a commercial endeavor.. I truly wish you the best of luck, but please learn from the experience.. It may have been a harsh welcome, but the people here really are just trying to look out for eachother and protect the group as a whole from a proposal that doesn't SEEM to have an AIRE of legitimacy... Just like a songwriter would do on one of the songwriting forums.. take the criticism and learn from it , and make your next effort better.. .. use a spell check, or ask someone to proof read your text, then maybe run the idea by a few of the people here and get some advice and opinions on HOW BEST to present it, and make it work... again WELCOME TO THE BOARDS, and BEST OF LUCK TO YOU! P.S> I carefully read all the post in this thread again , and there isn't anything that could even be stretched into slander.. try to view this whole thing from the other persons shoes.. WHEN I give everyone the benefit of the doubt.. YOURSELF , AND the rest of the posters on this thread, I can see WHY they would be skeptical of your promotion.. as an OBJECTIVE observer, you should also be able to see WHY someone would question the validity and value of your offer when it is presented as such.. PLEASE REALIZE that there are SEVERAL spelling and grammatical errors on your site as well as in the posts that follow.. NO BIG DEAL .. I DO THE SAME MYSELF OFTEN, BUT if I were to make a marketing piece (WHICH I DO FOR MY BUSINESS OFTEN) KNOWING that I am not perfect, I spellcheck, then proofread, THEN have someone else proofread, etc etc, AND if it still has mistakes, I understand if it undermines MY credibility.. that's just the nature of things... I would suggest making some contacts here, getting a feel for the people, letting THEM get to know YOU, and getting to know the "lay of the land" and THEN try marketing your opportunities here.. You will probably get a better response that way... (just my opinion)
