If my memory serves me correctly, there were a lot more people posting when Spark announced the changes to this site.
My impression is that people were posting:
"... it's not the $1.49 that bothers me, its the loss of the format..." Now that they have brought back what we (sometimes insistently) asked for, I don't see a lot of members saying: "Yes, I will back them for puting things back to the way I wanted them to be...".
So, what happened???
Spark origionally asked for ideas.
Many members posted that they were willing to help out if he didn't change anything. He changed it. People got pissed. They (M & S) changed it back... and no one is flocking to their door to thank them (ie: paying for services that were asked for).
I would like to believe that people were just not aware of a movement to keep the "Knife Exchange" as
WE wanted it, but I posted a FREE $100 knife ad and I KNOW that it has been viewed...
Maybe, what we need is a list of the people who said that they would support Mike and Spark if they would return to the "old days"...
I busted Spark's balls because I didn't like the changes, but I'm willing to back that up with cash because I've been met more than half way.
I dislike people who say things they don't mean. Don't make me do a search and post your names.
Put up or shut up...
