So you want us modders to what, pack up our PC's? Like, strip all the components down from our rigs, pack them and pay extra for them in suitcases, and then get strip-searched when security asks us wtf we have "components that look like they could be assembled to make an explosive device".

And you want us to pay for a booth? I get the fact that tables are expensive these days, but if you want us there, charge a mf'ing entry fee, don't sap more money of us who already paid nearly $1,000 to get to the freaking convention in the first place.

I don't think moddb is going to support you, they have more important things to do. Halo CE is the only truly active community on our forums, and you assume that is really going to bring a crowd? I've taken dumps that could muster up more common sense than that logic.

I'm sorry, but this idea is really really ignorant and would never EVER ever EVER get off the ground.
Well, fuck, should not have invited you. We're not made of money, this is the first time for the event, you don't carry you're computer with you - you get it shipped, and yes, I expect you to pay for a booth if you're going to be using a booth. That's how conventions work.

I hope this event pulls through
DC's looking like our best bet at the moment.
