I didn't either, until we tried to get him for our con. One of the staffers is a family friend and called him personally."If your day is filled with firefighting, you need to start taking the matches away from the toddlers…” - HM -

Hardly excessive.

No, it isn't. Ever seen someone that needs tech support be willing to leave the room while you work?Quoth EricKei View PostCrossbow -- $50 for tech support isn't much at all Hardly excessive.
Me neither."If your day is filled with firefighting, you need to start taking the matches away from the toddlers…” - HMComment

You really should do it. Be a nice payday, and most sucktomers won't want/be able to meet the fee. If someone really can pay a high premium then I'd take the money and run.Quoth mhkohne View Post
Me. If I need that kind of tech support, I know I'm in over my head. I get the hell out of the way and tell the techie to call me from the other room if he has a question or something to tell/ask me about.Quoth Crossbow View PostThey say that God only gives us what we can handle. Apparently, God thinks I'm a bad ass.Comment

Sadly, I'd be one of them to watch.. And have to shuffle-punt the cat that loves being a welcome mat. Worships the ground you walk on, bonus points if it's him sort of welcome mat.Quoth Crossbow View Post
But if I have to call someone to do tech support, then I am SERIOUSLY over my head at this point. Or simply can't do it for myself.If I make no sense, I apologize. I'm constantly interrupted by an actual toddler.Comment

People will read what they want to read. Back when I was getting requests for art I didn't want to do fan art so much because I felt that my gallery was full of it and I want to do more original things. I even posted messages saying this. It sure didn't stop people from asking anyway. At least you managed to get a response from the guy who asked. I got nothing.Check out my art: http://mechanicold.deviantart.com/Comment
