CorpsFan. Posted May 23, 2010 Share Posted May 23, 2010 This is the kind of reactive, flawed logic that destroys organizations rather than makes them better. You offer NO ideas yourself, just pure vetriol.It's great you're writing a check to Madison, but keep in mind that Mason and gang were the original break away bunch with new ideas on market expansion (and they did it!). Any they invited everyone to come along for the ride. They didn't do it as an exclusive "members only" county club. Suppose you think we should reward Wall Street Execs too?

Suppose you think we should reward Wall Street Execs too? Yeah, there's a real parallel here. Where they were going there wasn't room for everyone....sound familiar? They saw a new market, targeted it and captured it. That's what successful companies do when the market changes. Holding to traditions and what is familiar is the stuff of failure in a media saturated environment. You may continue your vitriol, if nothing else it's entertaining.

And you can continue to support the temper tantrum thrown by the big boys. Unfortunately, it's not entertaining. It's sad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm supporting no one, just not as "knee jerk reactive" as you with no clear understanding of the facts. DCI needs a change and they seem to be offering one. Perhaps we should all attempt to understand it, before we strap on our condemnations. A good rule of thumb: If there is a problem, and someone offers a solution, and if you are unwilling or can't offer an alternative to solve the same problem, simply saying "no" or calling names gets us nowhere. The best defense is a good offense! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luvs me sum mello! Posted May 23, 2010 Share Posted May 23, 2010 Not going to happen. While many fans of DCI contribute money to corps, they contribute to the ones they're die hard fans of. Many people may say they'll give money for something like this....but most won't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if you believe that what is offered is even worse than the problem? I think that's a lousy rule of thumb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plan9 Posted May 23, 2010 Share Posted May 23, 2010 Even if you believe that what is offered is even worse than the problem? I think that's a lousy rule of thumb. Then that would become the "new" problem, still needing a solution. If you're not part of the solution, you're part of the problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems more like the people who are starting more and more of these "G7" threads have the temper tantrum and that is sad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You offer NO ideas yourself, just pure vetriol. And what do you think about the West Cost corps boycotting shows sponsored by other corps (except Phantom's) because "no one comes west"? If I were with Troopers, BK or Bluecoats, I would be offended by their statements and actions. Is that anything but vetriol? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mason and gang were the original breakaway bunch??? Do you mean The Combine(1971) or Brass Theater and Blast??? And isn't it interesting that they all came back.
