Post count matters...

Hell Puppy · 07-08-2006

Lots of drama floating around the past week or two. Much of it symptomatic of a long time perception issue in adult.

First off, post count matters. If you can brand yourself and create a familiarity with people online, there are many people in the industry who will equate familiarity with reputability. Your fame might even get you invited to some of the better parties at trade shows even if most of your sponsor checks come only once every 6 months because it takes you that long to hit the minimum pay out.

Now, you can take that to the next level, find 4 other guys to split a room with and make your way to a show. Meet some people in person, demonstrate your ability to drink sponsors liquor at parties and now you're a recognized player. Lots of people on the boards have now met you, partied with you and will tell everyone what a great guy you are.

If you're really good with slinging the BS, you might even score a job with a sponsor. At that point, you're pure gold, especially if you can get the sponsor to send you to the show and let you expense buying other people's drinks, dinner and dances at the titty bar. Dont worry if you dont have any credit, in many cases the boss will let you borrow his. Heck, use it to take your girlfriend out and buy her some stuff while you're at it.

I dunno, I guess I'm crazy, but I'm very mucha results and numbers kinda guy. I just shake my head everytime one of these guys has a public meltdown on the boards or even when multiple board personalities start feuding with each other over who ripped off whom.

Does anyone actually still sit down and work for 8 hours or so a day instead of just dick around on the boards?
