Hey everyone.
Well, two good things came out of this.
With the treehouse bashing commentary, I realized that I haven't yet put out a good video on these slings. I guess I was avoiding it since it takes hours and hours to edit multiple cameras and multiple jobs. But this will push me to do it. I am taking off tomorrow and staying in the office. I do have a day job you know... On the crappy video I put out originally, in the information area I wrote, "Not edited well and no music; unlike my work videos. The video is not organized well, but I needed to get something out there quick."
I guess this didn't matter to some of the treehouse people. As they stated pretty much that the video was embarrassing.
Anyway, I'm glad they reminded me how important it is to get a good video together.
I was bothered by the beginning comments on here and especially on treehouse. I felt a few people were attempting to make it look like I was ripping people off.
It was quite negative.
THEN!, two big names in this industry contacted me. One by e-mail and one by phone today. (this is why I'm writing this)
They explained that, "this is how it goes and they have been through it. They both said, a few people for some reason will try to undermine and destroy what you have been working on. Likely out of jealousy, but who knows for sure. Don't talk to them, don't feed them. They are like vultures and more will come if you try to attack them. Forums are piddly when it comes to numbers so don't worry about it if someone tries to hurt the product on the forum." in so many words.
I am posting here to say thank you to so many of you that stood up and are supporting me in this. Also thank you to the two big guys that called and e-mailed me personally. I can't thank you enough. You've been through this and know how stressful and financially exhausting this is. I'll be honest, this really bothered me until I talked to the both of you guys that have been through this. I can’t thank you enough.
What I will do is: when I have experience in all of this, I will help out the next new guy that is getting his good product bashed. I will give him advice and take away the stress he or she feels. I will pass on the good deed.
THANK YOU to those that gave support.
I will listen to the wise and not feed the vultures, even though it is SO HARD FOR me, theXman. So God DANG HARD!. This is not like me to stop on this thread. But I’ve always tried to listen to the wise in life, even if I can’t stand it. I can hardly stand it.
On another note, I have been working with antal’s other products and have put a lot of time and effort into making them useful for our industry. Antal is also willing to work with me and possibly produce products that I personally come up with. So, get used to it, more will be coming out. By the way, Antal and it's North American distributor have integrity.
