Advertising your show
Fri, 25 Aug 2006, 06:05 pmIt is sad to say that several of the shows on in Perth at the moment, both large and small, are not listed on this web site under the 'What's On' section.
This is a free promotion facility which we are all lucky to have, and yet recently I have had to try cross-referencing, looking up production companies and venues (one main one, still not even listed) in order to find the dates or times of shows that I have heard may possibly be on now.
Your audience shouldn't have to work hard to find you.
Don't let all your crew and actors work their guts out and not even list your production. Then wonder why no one has turned up!
Kind regards

Valid Point
Mon, 4 Sept 2006, 12:08 pmGlemetti, you raise a very valid point and one that can be a bit of thorn in the side of any individual or group trying to provide a Free-Speech Forum such as this Web Site.
The problem is, that unless you basically shut down services completely, there is very little than can be done to filter out the nonsense from the legit. I myself was recently "bagged" and found it to be questionable, but what could I do? What I did was answer without emotion and then I could have voted the postings as "Utter Rubbish" which sort of hides them, but someone got there before me on that one.
In all honestly, the Voting system provided by this site is one of the best way to monitor rubbish postings I have seen, other than ALL messages being monitored by a Site Supervisor. Considering the amount of Traffic this site gets, that would be a monumental task.
Sadly, such postings are a part of life. A bit like Spam and Junk Mail. If you can't rise above the mess, then you'll drown under it's weight.
