My plan is to promote Diablo Sound to every theme park owner and operator on the board.
Hmm. It's sounds like the finest party I can imagine getting paid to go to.

Voting Discussion: We're Screwing In Light Bulbs AIFG!
We open it up, we talks the talk, we votes, we shuts it down. This thread is to free up Bureaucracy for daily details as we hammer out the Big Issues towards a vote. Open only when a proposal has been made and seconded according to Buffista policy (Which we voted on!). If this thread is closed, hie thee to Bureaucracy instead!

Honey, you forgot to promote to all the Buffistas who own cruise ships. It's really a good thing you have me around.
Ehm. On topic, I think this is a great thread idea.

Well, just don't do it EXCESSIVELY, ND.
We can take it out -- I'm pulling all this stuff out my...ear.

Compassionately intolerant
I support leaving the excessive promotion language in. A vague disclaimer is nobody's friend...right?
As a person who has spent way too much time thinking about marketing and editing...accounting and, ya know, everything except what I am actually good at...I could really use the support of this thread!

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
I agree on leaving the antispammy language in place -- I don't think any of us would actually *do* it, but I'd rather have the clear line there. I also think it might reassure any folk who aren't comfortable with a biz thread, not that I've seen anyone speak up on that side yet.
Y'all, I am so very excited by this idea. I spend stupid time reading shit like freelancing blogs when I should be working -- and I'd so much rather get the same tips and reassurances from actual buffista human freaks. I really see it working like the tech thread, where, yeah, some of the same factual info might be out there somewhere else in a lot of cases, but isn't it so much cooler to talk to you people???

Ann, that's a ferret.
Too lazy to look it up, but does anyone else remember the "Shop at our Web site and see what we have!" spammer from some years ago? The stompies just banned the address and (as far as I know) never heard anything more.
So I'm not concerned with spamming issues.
I'm not likely to frequent an entrepreneurs' thread myself, but as long as our bandwidth can handle it, I also don't see any objection.

Thrive to spite them
Fred I think it was the Christian One Dollar Store or something like that.
I think this is a good idea, even if I'm not in business for myself, but it seems like a good thing in terms of how our community has grown and changed.

I think it's a fabulous idea.

I think it's a good idea.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Enthusiastic agreement from me. Hey--I read the tech thread. I learn stuff. I'll read the biz thread, and learn stuff. I may even have a thing to add now and then.
I love this idea, I'm excited to be a part of it!
