Either or...the point is if I have to make an official apology to the entire nopistons.com forum I can do that. I did the design, layout, write-up, printing, etc on the event guide. I personally tried to take into consideration as much as possible the positioning of information for each sponsor. If you want to be critical of what I've done than please be my guest since I can sit here and know that what I was trying to accomplish was in the best interest of all my sponsors. If I made a mistake in trying to accomplish those ends then I made a mistake and will do what needs to be done to fix it.
1. Please note that every time any of the forums are mentioned as sponsors Nopistons.com is listed first. It shows first in the banners rotating on the site. It is the only banner on the sponsors page, and the nopistons.com event guide write-up displays before the banners for rx7/rx8club.com
2. In the event guide I did not think that using the rx7/rx8club.com banners infringed on the nopistons.com write-up in the least bit. I actually thought I was doing nopistons.com a little better by giving them the write-up. The banners were displayed trying to be fair to all my sponsors since rx7/rx8club.com could not get me write-ups for their forum in time.
3. In working with sponsorships for the two largest rotary vehicle forums on the internet I work exclusively with two people. A) Scott Martin and B) Ryan Scott. I have great respect for both of these individuals and I hope from phone calls, emails, and the time I set aside during the event for both of them that they realize this fact. Anyone besides these two people who might be affiliated with a forum is probably not *in the know* when it comes to what is done by me or my event.
Again, this is an open forum and if you want to be critical for the choices I made when developing different sponsor placements for the event that is fine. Please try and be factual when discussing these items. The person who should be most concerned would be my contacts for each individual forum and those who paid direct monies for each forums sponsorship. I have given Scott a personal phone call to discuss any issues he has had leading up to, during and following the event and I hope he has accepted my facts regarding how I dealt with these issues.
Scott, if there is anything else or any other concerns I can help with, please call me directly and let's work them out.
Again, I apologize if things were placed in a way that put nopistons.com in a bad light. It was not mine nor the events intent to do so. There is no spin on this message it is just facts, and if you look at the overall placements of each forums sponsorship information I hope you will agree with me that I did what I could to make things right for each sponsor.
