That's a great way to look at life and experience! Thank you for sharing that.

I feel the same way. You can't have much reward without taking a risk.
And many times it takes a while to see your reward. Patience can be very important as I've learned with this site.

:D You're right Racketboy. Succeed and fail go hand in hand, You hardly ever have one without the other and I'll take either I can get until I'm at the place I'm supposed to be.

Man, that was totally uncalled for. Why the personal attack? Aaron's post didn't get personal, your reply did.

You should be prepared for failure if it's such an innovative idea; many ideas fail, not necessarily because they are bad, sometimes just because the timing wasn't right.

Best of luck with your project, by the way.

Uncalled for? Maybe.

Something else uncalled for is when someone who is obviously "special" can bang their head on a keyboard in tune with Mmmm-Bop to form a half sentence like this.........

"call me a negative nancy but i can't fight this feeeeeelin' anymoooorrreee"

I posted here because it's the only message board I visit and I know that people who enjoy the same hobby and things that I do will be here. My message was posted to give people an opportunity to join me in an adventure to another country for a project that may amount to something big or nothing at all, I made this pretty clear in my original message. I am willing to share whatever money I make with complete strangers, Do I deserve to be jacked around because of it? I appreciate constructive criticism and other peoples ideas that can help out, But what can I use from what aaron posted?

I don't mean to be a dick, But how should I be when someone trolls WITHOUT HUMOR just to belittle in a post I made to bring like minded people together to create something we all enjoy?

("Best of luck with your project, by the way" Thank you for the comment, I can use all of them I can get)

aaron could have been a bit more sensitive.
But at the same time, I would have just ignored such a comment.

Anyway, lets forget about it and move on.

It's ok, It was my bad really.

I've had this idea for so long and I've put so much financially, emotionally and physically into this and negativity is something I try to walk the other way from. I know that failure is very possible, But this is my dream and I'll see it down whichever road it takes me.

I'm sorry I attacked you personally, You didn't deserve that.

Thank you for the good luck! I appreciate it. Good luck to you with any dreams you have also.

I will try harder. You were the negativity I should have tried harder to walk away from.

RacketBoy can you please close this thread? I have already found three people to help and I don't think I'll get any help from here. Thanks.
