Jman I hear ya, and respect your highly moral/honest take on this matter, too bad the marketing sector in this country doesn't adopt the standards your selling too!
Remember, they tell you "hey folks if you use this phone service you can make a call anywhere", but you can't, I was told "if I bought this magic pencil the scratches on my car would disappear" but they didn't, I'm told to "take this pill and you will satisfy your wife anytime of the day or night" while 25 possible side effects are scrolling across the bottom of the screen, some far worse than the problem, like death for one! I love my wife, but I ain't taken that f**** pill....
They tell me puppies are cute and they like horses so I should drink Budwieser(Whaaat, Why?), they tell me politicians are honest, one even told Bill Clinton to go on TV and tell me oral sex wasn't actually sex, I smiled but my wife didn't!
Like you I like the honest approach to everything that worked great in the 50's and 60's, and the fact that advertisers and marketer today insult my intelligence with these ads really p!sses me off.
I will still, gladly go back to the old standard of honesty is the best policy when I see a commercial that says..."Look, this pill works, but if you read all the sh!t that can go wrong at the bottom of the screen you would have to be crazy to take it, but it does work if you want to risk your life, free shipping", OR Peanut Labs gives me the 5000 or so credits they screwed me out of, and supersonic the 1000 or so I didn't receive when I trusted them to keep their word over the last 8 months! I'll post again if they do!!!!
Maybe if we keep a thread like this alive and post the marketers name and which company didn't pay us for taking the survey PL will take it a little more seriously...
