Quote - I was surprised the Stonemason thread was allowed.. It read as a commercial more than a heads up. I have seen that a little more around here, the little I've be around lately. I guess it's not what is promoted but how or who post it?
So, of you love particular creators work and are excited about a product that just came out, you can't post about it?
You can only post about a product when you want to have a negative rant about it?
Or, you can post about programs and utilities (Wardrobe Wizard, crossdresser, Faceshop Pro etc etc...) but not about content?
So, next time I see a piece I really love and want to strike up a conversation about it, I better post 'gosh, did you see such and such product' it's a big pile of crap! Because, hey, saying something positive about a piece of content is this terrible commercial advertizing plug. Criticizing, biatching and moaning about everything, that's just business as usual.
sigh some major cases of commerce-phobia around here. I mean look around your screens people, this is a commercial site. If you want to be in a commerce/commercial free environment, this or any other place engaged in sales of content is not a kind of a place that is likely to fulfill your desire for commercial free environment, and it's pretty unrealistic to have that expectation. Like walking into a mall, and like OMG, getting mad that there are product advertizing kiosks in the food court. I wanna eat without a commercial in my face... Well, then don't go to a mall food court to have lunch!!!!! sigh
LOL, I better go to sleep.... I don't think this kind of an attitude is ever going to make a lot of sense to me.
