Reputation

Hmm. Reputation, its a funny thing isn’t it. Mine is probably not the best, and i doubt your’s is either (unless your jordo). Yes that was sarcasm.

The FM scene is a tough place. People tend to judge you before they know you, Ive done it myself and im sure many people reading this have as-well. People try and ignore reputation, but it always counts for something.

Take Jackwilson for example. As some of you may know, I’m currently doing a site with him, In-The-Stand. The lad hasn’t got the best reputation on the scene, especially at TI, where i had to try and fight back the baying mob that wanted his and Putzy’s head on a stick, and probably now mine. But OK, the kid has rustled a few feathers and made a few mistakes. Haven’t we all? Give him a chance.

I was doing most of the advertising for the site, and people were not even visiting because they knew it was Jack’s site. My answer is, don’t judge something on your views and opinions of one person. The scene has changed alot from what it was when i first started out. Its all ‘lolz’ and ‘tbpfh’ and its all about quantity rather than quality, give or a take a few.

Once again this falls back to reputation. It separates the arse lickers from the people who like to speak their mind and say what they feel. I think i fall into the latter bracket, what about you?
