And I thought the "other site" wasn't going to be in competition with this one.

THIS is the only VALIANT site for fans, as far as I'm concerned.

Why can't they post updates on their site and on this message board? (which is technically their message board)

Why post updates on a message board that no one goes to? (sorry I2)

Still cannot quote, or spearate them like ZWH used to do.

(which is technically their message board)
Is it? Well it is linked to their web site, so yes. But I never thought of it as so. I thought of it as Gregs message board.

Well actually it is quite busy. Maybe not in the buy sell trade section, but their is an active community of 30 plus. That post very regulary.
And Jedi even if you say sorry for slagging someone off, you are still slagging someone off.

Before someone says whats slagging? its like being rude. Or diss'n someone.

Not that Image2 needs defending, but I feel he gets abit of a hard time on the site ~ for trying to promote valiant to the fans.

Don't worry I am sure someone will check my spelling.
Maybe I still am having PMT from earlier today

.

But it needs to be said.7

No love lost Jedi

The other message board is simply that, another message board.
Why does it have to assigned a good or bad value.
I enjoy posting there and I enjoy posting here.

Nothing wrong with I2's board.

But shouldn't any info VEI wishes to put out there be posted on thier main site?home page first?

That's VEI's call to make. I know I have certainly made past communications in the wrong order or not as soon as a I should have made them. I have also said many things on many occasions when I should have remained silent.

Couldnt agree more, yes to indeed offer any information anywhere other than teasers on your own site is a tad strange.

I don't think that Dino posted anything. I think he gave someone a "nugget" like he does and then someone posted it. So it's all second hand anyway.

I don't care about all the talk and whatnot. I don't care about whatever it is that they are doing until I see a product.

That's not a fair statement since Coke has something to market to the consumer.

advertising is advertising, I suppose we could argue if VEI has a "product to market" but out my point is that when its out of sight, its out of mind.

In this world of "open access, instant interactivity" and twitter...to fall this silent is a momentum killer. And they didn't have that much momentum to begin with, purchasing a decade old dead comic companies properties.

I didn't even know there was another message board. All of my needs have been met here, and that includes my VEI (no)news.

From they way you have previously treated me Jedi, even I didn't expect such a poor responce.

Congratulations, a new low for you

And thanks for the responce! Because you did

I don't feel its in competition.
Its just promoting valiant.

Is it there for another reason? I'm a little confused by this. Is it there for the same reasons as this board? Or does it have another purpose.

I dont want to start an argument or anything and dont know whos involved in the other site, but why?

I think it backs a different charity. For the most part, the members are the same, but there's also a member there who most people here do not care for. He's there for right now. He'll end up thinking he's superior to everyone there like he always does and walk away. That's his thing.

The times I've gone over there, everything is really just copied / duplicated from this board anyway. If there's news it's here and then it's there.

Thanks for the info! I'm happy enough here methinks.
