I certainly agree here, hence why I and others made a conscious effort to pose our arguments very articulately and with respect, as opposed to being like "DUDE WTF ACEN IS GAY GIVE US WHAT WE WANT DKFJDLKFJLGJFGLJKJ". I also stated in my post that I did not know what the room situation was, and that I was only going on an assumption, and that if the assumption was wrong, I would be perfectly pleased.outlawed wrote:I do not want the AMV community to be perceived as whiners and some could take that post that way.
If anything, I did want to at least create some amount of action and response from the ACen staff. It certainly has nothing to do with our faith in you or Julius. I think you guys have done a great job, but I have also been in a staffers position where the con staff has been less than helpful based off of their perception of how important certain events are, when in fact they're paramount (basically meaning, I would understand if you guys had already done everything you could, so I figured it could certainly help if a larger group of voices also made themselves heard).
I apologize if the post offended you or looked like just a bunch of "internet kids" whining about not getting what they wanted, cause it was definitely the contrary. We simply want the AMV events at ACen to be given the support they deserve and for your guys' hard work to be given more emphasis.
In honesty there is more I should have done to approach the rest of you and get this ball rolling two years ago.
