Robert, you seem a little over-sensitive to criticism. Mick is not an agent (as you smugly inquire on another post), but an actor and an Equity unionist who actively campaigns to protect fellow actors from dodgy agencies. If he seemed to be asking you difficult questions, he's only doing his job...after all, you say that you will be happy to oblige anyone with questions about your company. Answering his was a start.
I think Mick could have phrased it better, but he seems to be asking 'what's in it for you?'. You seem to be offering the services of an agency or a 'showcast', yet apparently for free. So naturally as an actor he wants you to explain how you're funding the service (do you charge a commission, do you negotiate with employers, etc) and also how have you 'set yourself up' or in other words, how does he know the information on your books is getting out to the major casting agencies, film & theatre companies, etc?
You'll attract more users to your service if you'll realise that your average user is a sensitive actor who may not phrase themselves so well but nevertheless has genuine concerns about you. If it were me, I'd be reassuring Mick rather than picking a fight with him.
In regard to the amount of 'flooding', I must say that I agree with Grant.
In my view, someone who posts here with no apparent intention of continuing a conversation is simply taking advantage of the free advertising. This in itself is not necessarily a bad thing, but when the users start to complain that you are taking advantage repeatedly and consistently, then I think it probably equates to spam advertising.
You indicate that you did not read Grant's response (which he repeated the link to in his above post). I recall responding to you in a very similar way after a previous burst of 'flooding', but I now doubt that you saw that either. That suggests to me that you have a tendency to post the same information many times, but don't return to read any responses to your posts. Therefore this does not seem like a conversation, hence we all feel you are flooding us with your advertising.
It makes little difference whether you are promoting the arts or not; spam is still spam.
Please note that I am not bagging you or your venture, but merely pointing out that the volume of your advertising on every forum is obtrusive. In fact, I have registered on your Amoureux site to test it; I'll be returning soon to update my details; and I'll be sure to report any results back to this site...surely that is far more valuable to you as free advertising.
I will forward this message to your email address, so I can be sure this time you are aware of it.
Cheers,
Craig
