I remember back in the day when I used to be accused of "ruining the integrity of TA" by promoting Boa. lol - I think we've reached a point where it has become part of the norm, and as long as it's not incredibly obvious or abusive it should be okay.
I personally think his videos are quality, and if there is a thread that is relevant to the subject (ie club, DJ, etc) he should have the right to post without being shat on. |

Don't see whats "desperate" in this case. Dude was asking about the Basement, so Prometheus posted a video of it (not even an embedded video that slows down your computer, just a link). |
so every time someone mentions a venue that ive shot at or djs that ive taken pics of, i should post a link to my pics? the reason why i say it looks like a desperate attempt at self-promo is because this isnt the first time he's done this. ive seen him do this every time he sees an opportunity to show someone a video. if i did that (or all other photographers did that) then it looks pretty lame.
the first couple times i was like "cool" and thought nothing of it but it is ongoing. |

chinamon you seem to be playing the innocent one here but I seem to remember flooding the forum and starting with your pictures back in the day with no affiliation with a club at all.
Maybe he should do that with all the videos he takes each weekend? Would that not be the same shamless promotion you use to do?
I just can't help but pick up on a slight tone of jealousy here....could just be me... |

back then i took pics for TA... not for the club.. thats why i still posted my pics here.
jealousy? lol no. i really dont care where he takes pics, who he takes pics of or who he works for.
as for the videos he takes at whichever venues he films at, he already does post them on TA after each event. i dont say anything about those. its the constant re-posting that bugs me. |

I'll second this. The videos themselves are really well done and I love seeing them, but really no need to post one every single time someone mentions a venue or dj you've shot. We get it, you take videos. Cool. If everyone did this TA would be a cluster. Look at kotsy for example, he could literally post a relevant video in every single thread, but he doesn't. No disrespect or anything, feel free to post whatever you want, just my 2 cents. |
