I believe that when your goal is Unity, Integrity, and Fellowship I figure:
Unity-The Board promotes this through the Tweak, supporting all tournaments, figure artists, and endeavors.
Fellowship-The Board has provided a forum whereby marriages and personal relationships have been repaired, life matters, death matters, anything you could imagine being discussed. Sure you have some disagreements but we are human are we not?
Integrity-This is where the board has no control with exception to setting the example. It's amazing when I see a guy from France putting all this information, free to all, articles in the tweak with more coming. Wow! what an example.
Now on the other hand you have people broadcasting sells, holiday sells, and other businesses disguised as trade offs. Now some of the newer folks just starting out so it's kind of unfair to ask of them. Provide the opportunity and maybe they will show their integrity.
I for one am growing tired of one vendor extolling the contributions of another to make thousands of dollars off this forum without contributing a dime to their cause. Let's see them try that on Ebay or on their own. I have purchased here but rarely sold but if I did I would donate. Integrity.
For example, Hoop and I had a garage sell and the same people who use this site to rake in dough and pay their bills did nothing, not a base, a figure, nothing. Now those of you who did contribute this does not apply to you.
It's really sad because the board should not even have to address this issue because they should be trying to find enough room to show all the sponsors who reap the benefits of the forum.
Integrity! That's on us and if you know these people then take a stand. Stop buying their products until they do the right thing!
That's Integrity, and that's us right?
