Maybe he's on the forum to have such this job name (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sawzall-smiley.gif) it'not with this kind of person that we'll save the 914 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/bye1.gif) |

I’ve had good dealings with Steve in the past, but I think sometimes he gets overextended as this is a sideline for him. Keep trying to reach him and he does read the Forum, so hopefully you’ll be able to rectify the problem.

Steve hasn't posted much lately, but... Last Active 12th April 2018 - 11:44 AM
A PM should get his attention. He's the guy that does the calendars also. We all got ours if not a bit later than expected. |

I do not believe Steve is scamming anyone. Take a deep breath and calm down. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/WTF.gif)

I ordered the magazine and a T-shirt early on. Got the shirt no problem and the first half-dozen or so issues of the magazine.
No one is scamming people; I don't know him, but Steve tried to do a good thing and got in way over his head. I'm pretty sure his venture cost him a lot more than he ever made from it. |

It wasn’t a scam, just a big time suck and we all have things going on that cause us to drop the ball sometimes. |

Having tried to do a magazine in the past its a hugely thankless and overwhelming job unless you have a lot of help.
I've got a few of Steve's shirts and he has always done right by me. Zach |

Zach Anyone attempting a magazine in the digital age is about 15 years too late, unless it's funded by a club or a non-profit it's almost impossible in today's advertising environment to even break even. Take it from a guy who had a magazine that was available in 3 continents in the early 2000's, and shuttered by 2006. Print as a profit engine is dead. |

The internet and environmental concerns have killed Commercial Printing.
The only place that can print with real ink is China.. Cause they don't care.. |

His issue? He overstretched himself on a couple of projects and then life got in the way. I still support him and hope he brings back the 914magazine at some point. It was getting really great! |
