Not saying you and Judy overreacted, because I hardly understand what that ubaidwhatever guy was saying when he was drunk, and I really do believe him when he emailed me apologizing about it, but you guys were bitching about it in a way that really was kinda dumb.
Especially Judy. I'm pretty surprised she became so vocal suddenly when usually she just rolls around and chimes in every now and again.
Yeah, I'm definitely not one to pass judgement on anyone, but the shit she went on saying, complimenting Shoemoney, lol.
Anyway, water under the bridge.
If that kid comes anywhere near you at Affiliate Summit West or bothers you in any way, shape or form, he'll be removed from the area, and here, for life.
What do you mean by rolls around and chimes in? If you mean joking around, yeah...I do it with the best of them. The Mister X band camp thing was one example. But it was mutual, a joke from one member to another and it never crossed a line. It's called respect for each other, and why some people here have class and others don't. The social retards that spew whatever they please don't have class. The guys that joke around and know what the word boundaries means, they have class (Mister X and ChrisS being two I can think of right off the top of my head).
And the shoemoney stuff...Jon, Jon, Jon.....
complimenting him? No. The stuff he posts is elementary internet marketing, nothing stellar. Which is why until this drama started I didn't read his blog. He's a nobody to me.
The reason for the compliments was because your whole point was being skewed in the delivery. Fine, trash him. But make it look like this place is a bunch of high school horn dog mob mentality dorks and your credibility with anyone on the fence about him will end up being useless. Your result will be the faux praise I posted about him.
Think about it.
BillyBob googles shoemoney. Ends up here on this thread. Reads it all. Then goes to shoemoney's blog. Finds civil postings. BillyBob is most likely going to come to the conclusion that this thread is nothing more than hyperbole and shoemoney is in fact God.
He pulls off what he does by the style he does it in. Everything here was a 180 of that. So, logically, my comments would represent what most people looking into him would come up with as a conclusion.
Do I care about him? No. Do I think he has anything I can benefit from? No. I paid 3K for Aaron Wall's new marketing membership. Shoemoney has videos in there. It doesn't make him a guru, in fact...it makes him stick out like a sore thumb compared to the others that put content and tools in there.
My comments were sarcastic, but much like my point in this thread....that was lost.
C'est la vie.
I agree with turbolapp that it's weird that so many of you don't understand why a woman would be offended when targeted with that crap. But my bet is those who don't understand don't get too many dates and those dates don't develop into relationships.
Mars vs. Venus.
