Justin Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 He does lots of good stuff but he does get a lot of freeload stuff i think. Not just from suppliers but also pushing members to raise money too through their purchases. It is gentle push but playing both sides of the coin it bit sharp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smokin Monkey Posted January 9, 2019 Author Share Posted January 9, 2019 You are correct in what you are saying, Marcus receives a lot of equipment, meat and other BBQ related goods. The reason he receives them, is because he is a leading figure in the UK BBQ scene, and has put a lot in to it. Now I am not defending him totally in this, there was a group of BBQ folks after a rather unfortunate Supplier Issue, that pressured Marcus and people like him to declare items, when making Videos or posting on CWS FB, these products. Thats why you now see # on post etc, #ad (advert) #spon (sponsored) etc. Gives a clear indication the origin of the product. Like this Forum, Marcus has overhead costs, that need to be found. We offer products on here that ALL PROFITS from them fund the Forum. So let’s not be to quick to judge others. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 That is fine but i get the distinct feeling he pushes rather hard. It is rather uncomfortable. Overheads of course are fine and that is needed, support is important but he is way beyond that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
