actually - you did get off remarkably easy from what i've seen before.

to begin with your post had nothing to do with 'upcoming horror movies' so not only are you spamming your own thing, you're doing it in an innapropriate place. (this particular part of the forum is to discuss soon to be released horror movies)

Like I said, all I was trying to do was give away some free, no-strings attached horror memorabilia. No worries, it's quite apparent that I have overstayed my welcome so I guess I'll just not bother.

1st let me say that i dont really have a big issue about it - i never do although i like to see stuff in the right places .. i'm funny that way. but i dont have a big issue if there's no bullshit.


then let me follow by saying ... bullshit.

at least be honest.

you're pimping your online magazine. if all you wanted to do was give stuff away - then give it to a neighbour. You wanted exposure for your site .. and were offering some free stuff as a possible reward. Thats fine too .. i dont really care one way or the other.

it does irk me when its done in less than honest ways though..

like the guys who come in here and their first post is : 'hey guys, anyone ever heard about this film ? i wonder what it's like ?" then posts all the web page info, etc etc...

sort of like saying 'all i wanted to do was give away free stuff'


just go to the book section here .. (i guess that'd be the most appropriate place) and say something like :

"hey i dont really have any other purpose here other than to pimp my online magazine. If you come take a look there is the slight possibility that you'll win a prize of some promotional stuff that was given to me"

who could find fault with that ... ?


for the most part the folk here like to see people join to participate in movie related chit chat - share some insights .. put some new perspectives on some old thoughts, basically bring in some new blood.


otherwise (as someone has stated in the past) its kind of like having a house party .. and some guy comes knocking at the door asking if anyone wants to buy some booze ... that they can only drink at some other house party down the road.

I wasn't pimping my site, it may look that way but I gave a direct link to the contest page. If someone should choose to look further into it and follow links etc, that's their own perogative. In all honesty, I figured that since "Slither" was an upcoming horror movie that maybe the "upcoming horror movies" thread would be a good spot for the post. I'm not a swindler or anything, I just wanted to get this stuff out to the fans. I think the backlash I received could have been handled without all the condescending posts making me out to loook stupid.

I understand if you feel like I infiltrated some secret society or something but I made an honest effort to fit in here and was met with a barrage of bullshit. It's pretty discouraging to have been a lurker on these forums for a year and half and when I register and post a "hello" I get a ton of basically "fuck off" responses. Every post I have made on this forum, even trying to open conversation has been replied to with an unaccepting tone. I never forced anything on anyone, I merely said "if your interested in getting some free horror shit, stop by here" it's pretty easy to disregard it if your not interested. Why would I give this stuff to my neighbor when all he would do is throw it out? This is a horror forum and I really didn't expect to receive this kind of hostility about offering up some free stuff. You can think all you want about my motives and intentions but I can assure that all I wanted to do is get this stuff out to the fans. I don't want it living in my house. So, thanks for everything you've been most welcoming.

I think so. Anything about slugs HAS to be bad.

well, you wont get a 'fuck off' 'from me ...although i cant speak for the others.

and it's hardly a secret society.

I for one would welcome any new face... er type... that participates in the horror forums (in a mature - or semi mature fashion) ..

dont mistake someone having fun with trying to make you look stupid ..
if you were actually lurking for a year you'd know that people are at each other a lot here - and most of it ... some of it ... occasionally it is good natured.


i cant believe you still arent admitting that you're pimping your magazine though ...
