Re: Once the Heart Walk is over...
i hate to be the bad guy but this is getting out of hand. Everyone on this site talks about people taking advantage of immature wtiters and I prsonally think this is another example of it. When does it end? How many charities are there? Hundreds and hundreds of people donate with the pipe dream someone at Bendersponk will read, love and represent their script and that's just not going to happen. Yeah, this is for a good cause but it's for his cause. He knows by flashing around the name "Benderspink" idiot writers will dish out their money thinking they actually have a script that will make it. If you had a script that was good enough you wouldn't have to take this route. What makes this worse is that he extends the deadline like any writing competition. On top of that he's throwing in another charity because he knows he has a list of suckers that will keep reaching in their pockets everytime he does this. I do an AIDS walk and Cancer walk every summer in my city but he is clearly taking advantage of these people and he knows it. I know I'm going to get a lot of heat for this but I don't care. I read these posts with all these people praising and saying "how great this is" when it is not. I would like to se this guy ask for donations on this forum without offering this service and you'll see how many he gets, probably not many at all and that's why he came up with this. If they were really serious about this they would offer a guaranteed rep to a certain amount of people. I haven't read these posts in awhile but didn't only 2 people get repped or something out of a thousand. Not to good of odds.
