To those that post here that we are dead, or are some how scamming our readers... maybe you should listen to what your mom told you and if you don't have anything nice to say. Mom's advice applies to the internet and blogs too.

Maybe you should have listened to "your" Moms advise about not talking down to adults like they were "children" as you did with the above statement - 'cause it makes YOU look bad! Many people who have supported you have a right to be concerned about whether you can get issues out in a timely manner. This is not a question of "nice" its a question of whether you have what it takes to get the job done in a professional manner "ie" publishing and customer relations. A lot of people seem to have legitimate beefs, so don't go blaming "them" when they voice frustrations with your ability to deliver on the goods. Comprende?

Very much so!

p.s. note listen what he says @ 11:55.

It's one thing to disrespect people who aren't happy with an event you started (not cool, but understandable).
It's something completely different to disrespect people who pay you for a product and simply want to know when they will actually receive that product.

[GameBent]

Still no updates.

[CeeBee]

GameBent nailed it : "Kickscam".
Sounds like they are now scamming REI and other investors. Maybe some of those investors will find out what they are really up to before they are scammed on a much higher level. The sad thing about this is Kickstand had the potential to fill a market void that we all care about and are willing to spend our money on. Its a shame that we get cursed for expecting something for that money.
Ratrod, maybe an honest guy like you should get in the publishing business!

I think I might rather get poked in the eye with a stick...LOL!

Im not 100% familiar with whats going on but Ive read the entire thread and then I read this interview or whatever word for word and my conclusion is this: If this is the guy that represents our passion/hobby I am embarrassed.I wouldn't plan on folks seeing a successful magazine from this guy.
At a glance he lacks class,tact and professionalism.
Id guess due to as much as he said F-u in the article he's likely saying F-u to his subscribers as well.

[jerrykr]

does not leave a whole lot of doubt about his commitment to the magazine and it's subscribers, does it?

It filled me with dread to think that people might start thinking that bike people are all a bunch of wig ,cardboard box,bubblewrap wearing freaks.
I realize its focused in Denver mostly as just a good time,do something different event but this guy goes on TV swapping wigs and showing dudes in scuba gear,cardboard and bubble wrap to name a few.

That video interview of Brad Evans told me a lot more than I wanted to know, to be honest I found it painful to watch
