Who is the "final word" as to what is DIR?

[DiveTub]

You forgot one Poll answer...

Who gives a rats arse !

 

[mddolson]

I didn't vote because it does not matter who we think sets the rules/ makes the call etc on DIR.

What matters is WHO DOES make the call/ set the rules.
In that respect I think this sort of poll is a waist of 'F'ing time (woft).

I'm sure that JJ sets the stds for GUE since it's his company, and GI3 sets the std for WKPP. I believe JJ was/is a heavy participant in the WKPP project so I'm sure he and GI3 consult from time to time.

That being said, this is strictly my opinion, and just that, so it's doen't amount to a pinch of koon doin's unless I am privy to some inside information, which I am not.

I think what the WKPP needs is a Public relations officer, someone who can keep Trey away from a keyboard and censor his comments.
He has alot of knowledge and experience, but somewhat of a ........brash approach to sensitive issues.
But then again, in his defense, he doesnt give a hoot what people think of his attitude, so why bother.

If I had any ownership in Brownies, Halc, EE or Gavin Id be looking for a PR man!!!

Am I way off here guys?

You would probably be the same way if you faced as much criticism and bashing as he does. It is a two way streak there. Everyone talks about how bad GI is, but they always fail to mention that he is usually replying to someone who has bashed him thousands of times before. The ones who do not bash him, and ask halfway intelligent questions, get a curtious response.

James I agree with you 1000%, I WOULD react the same way, actually I would react worse, I'd end up knocking someone out.
I also know what he has to put up with, its a never ending battle, and Id hate to be in his shoes (well sort of, Id love to dive like him)

BUT, thats my point, because I am no good with dealing with people, and have a bad temper, I hire a sales team. I refrain from talking to my "emotional" customers and dont involved in emotional issues. By doing this, and allowing my "oh so friendly" sales team to do all the PR work, nearly all of my customers think we are a really nice company.

I think GI needs the step back and let someone else make him look good, thats all. Bring out the "good"in him so to speak.

Dont for one minute think that Im jumping on the bandwagon, I am a supporter, not a basher.

...has anyone told GI3 or JJ that we have voted UP as their new public relations guru?

 

[Aquamaniac]

Thats my whole point. UP can argue the same point as Trey, yet at the end of it, most people agree with him, If they dont agree, UP wont turn around and curse and swear at them, thats what good PR is all about, and THAT is what makes a mentor.

[Uncle Pug]

I am waaaaaay down the food chain. Pete (netdoc) included me in the poll (and refuses to confess his further manipulations )...

I gave you the straight scoop in my opening post.

PUG the Great Wizard of Oz oh I mean GUE


This place would be boring without you PUG

 

[The Chairman]

While I must admit that I DID skew the poll towards our good Uncle Pug, I have returned it to REALITY. So Pugster, while you are not winning by such a large margin, you ARE whining!!! Opps, I meant "winning" :tease: !!!

I did put the Good Uncle's name in there WAY AFTER the poll got started. I think he might even be further ahead if he was in it from the beginning!!! Go Pug!!!

BTW, was that sheepish enough for you???
