Folks, just to be PERFECTLY clear about this issue...
"MarkDS" is a regular and consistant (and useful) contributor to this forum in terms of "useful" forum posts as well as "free" articles posted on and hosted by Michael here on LuLa...
To compare and contrast, simply look at the total accumulated useful posts make by the member named "gmitchel" and compare that to the number of useful posts made by the member named "MarkDS".
Seriously, if you have
ANY doubt about who is a committed and useful member of the LuLa community (
MarkDS) and who is using this forum for the purpose of self promotion (
gmitchel).
Simply follow the links...
Look at the posts made by "gmitchel" and state that ANY of the posts are ANYTHING other than promoting his "free" stuff (yeah, ok, "most" of his stuff is free, but "some" of it is for sale and therefore the whole enterprise is thus "commercial)...
In point of fact, I have ZERO idea what "gmitchel"" is saying in his posts here on LuLa...I've taken the liberty to "ignore" any of his posts (for a whole host of reasons which I'm perfectly happy explaining AFTER my upcoming Death Valley workshop next week) but I'm simply not comfortable having MarkDS characterized as ANYTHING other than a well-meaning and consistently supportive member of LuLa...which I would dispute ANYBODY of claiming "gmitchel" involvement of matching...
Seriously, Mark, let me apologize in advance for some of the more ignorant (and totally ill informed) responses you've gotten in this thread...
And as a further note, sorry, I'm off to the PODUS workshop this weekend (back Nov 16th) and I seriously won't be visiting this thread each and every day. A "lack" of response should not be construed as any sort of acceptance on my part...since I've got my prefs set to set to ignore "gmitchel" I won't be inclined to respond to him anyway...
Just ask yourself, who is a real contributor to this community and who isn't...
