You work there and are mining our forum members to advertise Marker 37 for free and that's not fair to our paying sponsors and no it's not a bunch of crap. _________________ Like Corpusfishing.com on Facebook! |

Lagunatick, folks are welcome to mention Marker 37 but advertising a business where you work without paying is spamming even if the information you were giving is good like the fact you have shrimp the fishing reports, and the black drum tournament. I have to pay hundreds of dollars per year to host the site so I have to have advertisers and when some other competing business starts posting about their specials for free as you were doing I can lose the paid sponsor. It is that simple  _________________ Like Corpusfishing.com on Facebook! |

| Actually, it is not about control; it's economics. If you want advertising for your place of business on this website, then pay for it like other businesses do. Frankly, your attitude leads me to believe that your place of business is one that I would prefer not to utilize. |

it appears that we have another that thinks everything he wants is free,everything he says should be believed and everything we the paying public give & earn should be his for free.
hope the business he works for (NO NAME) survives with that attitude. _________________ ccbobber |

Dear Marker 37:
Step up and advertise here. Maybe it can help to start to overcome some of your image issues. _________________

i might have to go over there if you can hook a 40pound drum from the pier that is pretty cool....
lagunatick maybe think about becoming a sponsor instead of trying to fight with the site admin.... _________________ http://www.youtube.com/user/Shark456Bait/featured

| Actually I am very upset, Marker 37 has been put down on this Web-site because of previous owners/management. The second something good is mentioned about the place it was struck down!! So Excuse me if i sound a little frustrated... The problem with the old 37 is(after Ernie Butler)... is nobody cared about the business..Exscuse me for tryin to help them out!So if i am not allowed to say anything positive about Marker 37, then all the negative things should'nt be posted either!! As for the 500$ advertisement fee, I understand everyone has their hand out when "new " money is in the business. |

| ..."word of mouth" is the best advertisement in this business, not an internet forum. So when folks drive over the JFK and see all the improvements happening at business(no name),we will have ALOT of business. So i will just sit back and let the folks come on in....Like in Field of Dream's, " If you build it, they will come!!" ... I don't recall having to pay to use this site...or is that coming in the future?? |

| The reason WHY you and I don't have to pay is because of sponsors stepping up to the plate. And because of them, this great resource will continue to be free going forward. So thank you to Cos-way, Blue Streak Fabrication, Wind and Wave, Roys, Ron Hoover and all of the other sponsors that help keep the lights on. |

When we, the users of this forum, have a good experience we talk about it on this forum. That's word of mouth advertising.
What you are doing is driving people from your business...more each time you try to defend your position. Luke said it best...Dude, just stop. |
