Funny you should mention that, 'cause I emailed David Fiedler directly,...
about the Davemania project, a long time ago, at the very beginning rollout of the 1st edition, asking him to check out my posts and to pls participate in the Davemania project.
David Fiedler never responded to my email. However, since it's his board, I'm sure he's seen my posts, and since he did not respond, either favorably, or by repremanding me, or banning me from this site, his non-response leads me to believe The Davemania project has his implied approval.
David Fiedler can email me, if he has a problem with me, my posts, or my cd project, and the use of the boardspace I've been taking to promote it.
Look, I'm glad you're not interested enough to form an "Anti-Me" campaign, and I've been thinking hard about the best way I can get maximum exposure, without crossposting, but with the fragmented nature of HRcom, IMO, a minimum of crossposting is necessary.
I overdid the crossposting, the first time out, sure, but I was naive about it, then. The 2nd edition rollout, I toned it way down, only crossposting half of what I did before. Still, I got flamed. Now, at the 3rd edition rollout, believe me, I'm trying to come up with an alternative to crossposting, but I haven't come up with anything, short of a legitimate DAVEMANIA forum. No joke implied.
Until I can assure maximum visibility for the Davemania project on one forum, I think a minimum amount of crossposting may be necessary. I'll do my best to keep any crossposting to a minimum, but fact is, that part of the great success of THE DAVEMANIA COLLECTION, was that it was highly exposed on several forums, simultaneously. I'm sure that's true, and therefore, I think it proves my basic point, that a minimum of crossposting is necessary for maximum exposure, on a board such as HRcom.
I'm not doing Davemania or crossposting to aggrivate people, or to abuse the bbs, and I certainly don't want to argue with people over the 'spam' issue.
I certainly didn't want to hijack this thread onto DAVEMANIA.
Davemania has plenty of momentum, as I just rolled out another 30 4-cd sets, worldwide. The 3rd free edition of Davemania set new records, and beat all expectations, again. Read my official 3rd release memo, soon, TBA.
I think the original point was, that I'd really appreciate it, if Ed/sonusman would not verbally abuse Newbies on the Newbie board. I know he's sort of trying to be funny, but please, it's not funny or entertaining, it's insulting, especially on the Newbie board.
Look, I'm sorry I lost my temper, but that type of thing will always get a reaction from me. That wasn't the first time I snapped at sonusman, and it may not be the last, depending on how he treats HR Newbies. He can take that superior attitude, and stuff it, 'cause he's not superior, funny, or anything else he thinks he is.
