absolutely. you seem to be ignorant of what a vendor is. let me clarify for you.. law dictionaries describe a vendor as "one who sells, esp. real property". regular dictionaries simplify it a bit to something similar to "one that sells or vends".
now, you are either painfully stupid, or making a vain attempt to pick a fight over semantics. id very much like to believe its the latter, but im afraid it may be the former.
now, lets make a happy assumption that you are making a vain attempt to argue semantics, let me clarify EXACTLY what my position is: any person or company that uses this forum as a major form of advertisement for their business (be it main or side venture) needs to pay for a vendor membership. im not referring to you selling one subwoofer, an amp, and your old ipod in a 6 month period. im referring to guys like corey, pro rabbit, zues, s10, etc.
besides all of that, Corey posted what is essentially a "feeler" thread, in the wrong subforum no less. no vendor was butthurt. he broke 2 rules here.
again, NOT an attack on Corey. everything ive read is hes a great guy, and does excellent work. but it is what it is.
