When you think about it, forums aimed at amateur and hobbyist bookmakers are not great places to drum up business, so, to "hang out" here, you have to like the people; by definition, conversion houses aren't finding customers here. {shrug} Those guys are off drumming up business on author's forums and the like. It's smart business. Hanging here is strictly for fun, I'm quite sure, for anyone who does this for a living.

Free, open source tools and support are part of my values besides a vision of business based on ethics and solidarity. Mom, if I look at some DIY definitions, I am a punk.
