If you want to experience a cutthroat, lying, cheating, not following through, low-balling, steal you blind, group of posers and amateurs, join the MkIV forums on VWVortex....
Again, maybe it's because I'm a n00b but my dealings and conversations with people here have been 100% polite, fair, respectful and that's the reason I'm hanging out here...
What is it that you're "really" looking for from the people here?

Agree with the others, this board is probably the most polite I've ever been on. Almost annoyingly so sometimes, or maybe I'm just more used to the other boards I'm on.
Honestly the people here are amazing, and the community feel is like no other. Including you, who offered up sky skaters for free to get them out there.Red Square Sherpas

There's going to be creepers anywhere you go online, but I'm with everyone else that's posted in this thread. Most of the people have been super polite and helpful and I look forward to getting the chance to ride with them.2008 Revolt "Trees" with Blue Groove X1's

Hi skyskater,
Introducing a product to the market is a real challenge and it takes a lot of time, effort, and even luck. Sometimes the market just is not ready for the it. Therefore I suggest that you not misinterpret the situation. It is just part of the long journey required to introduce a product.
I know it can be discouraging when others do not demonstrate the same passion for a new product that you have as the creator. (Been there, felt it!) But keep your passion for your product and focus on asking yourself the question: what would make the product more appealing to a broader group of customers? Generally what makes a product more appealling is a unique feature, benefit versus cost, or performance improvement. Or stated another way, why would some one want to buy the product? Once you answer these questions you will know if the product has a chance, how to present and sell the product.
I hope this helps bring some balance to your expectations. Good luck in your product development journey.sigpic

I disagree completely with the "creepy" premise. This forum is incredibly polite and helpful. The only one I know of that's similar is our Allis-Chalmers vintage farm tractor forum, with folks going above and beyond to help people they barely know, it's cool. The bird dog forum I used to frequent is a knucklehead-infested trainwreck.
Having said that, I admire entrepreneurial types like skyskater. We would have very little real innovation if it weren't for talented people willing to take risks with fresh ideas. It's the opposite of the huge beancounter-run operations (read: Salomon, Line/K2) and one of the reasons many of us appreciate folks like Greco and Jeff.
edit: great comments, Slow.
