Hi Peter,
I agree my comment was rude and had it not been 2am for me when I wrote it I
probably wouldn’t have posted it but I will stand by the point because it was
in response to something that was extremely rude. You have said much the same
thing as Peter Edwards but in a polite manner and in no way would I respond
rudely to it. He may think that $50 is too much for the convention but I
think that free is a bloody bargain for good manners.

Well, Well, it appears I need to put more words in my posts.
Extremely rude? I see my sarcasim was wasted on you. I’m thinking your wound a
bit tight mate.
In hindsight my message “Are you wanting some exhibits or just vendors?” could
have been interpreted with a negative tone, but my intent was only to find out
the type of exhibitor’s sort.
The trouble with electronic media is it’s sometimes hard to gauge the tone,
hence the implementation of smilies and other ascii art.
Ross Crawford reply was right on the money, to the point, informative and funny.
I’ll admit I was excited by the announcement of Brickvention 2006, and then
sorely disappointed by the lack of any substance on the website (just pay money
now).
You boys have put on plenty of exhibits in the past and probably in some dodgy
venues so I can see the attraction in uping the anty. As stated by many others
$50 is good value. Ok then, I stand corrected.
So Tim, you admit to being deliberately rude but no apolgy, just excuses, good
form, so forgive me if I don’t send you any money.
Still I got 13 messages to this thread with my poorly thought out message, yet
my well designed MOC’s thread got sod all reponses, go figure.
