No, you "think about it"

If someone wants free PR on my blog, and I politely decline, I suggest you not get an attitude about it. Since you didn't bother to answer my response to your rude email, I'll wonder it "out loud" here... how were you going to send me a package without my real name? I told you when I declined it was because I wasn't interested in revealing my real name to anyonefor professional reasons. You decided to very unprofessionally tell me I wouldn't have to use my real name to review your product, and to "think about it and you'll let me figure it out."

I thought about it. I figured it out. Didn't take me long either. I've been sent products to review in my professional life. I've accepted some, and I've declined some. Usually when I decline, I get a, "No problem, please consider us in the future." and I have. You were unprofessional and rude, and you don't know it, but I've spent about $2000 with you over the last year or so, and now I'll never buy another product from your company again.

Good to see you're still alive. When are we getting more stories? Or when will you be online again?

Along with the rant, which I'm sure is justified, would you be willing to share the senders name?

That's ridiculous. I work in porn promotion and most female bloggers, while willing to be paid to review toys, don't want to give their real name. And, the professional companies know how to deal with this - then email you a coupon you can use to purchase the product, or they send you a Visa Gift card number by email that you can use to purchase it without revealing your name to them.

I hope the lack of stories is because you're busy catching up with all your regulars. I need the daily stories back

What? You're not going to name the company outright? I'd boycott them in a minute for such a poor lack of judgment.

I mean, really!

Who do these people think that they are???? When I first read this post I had no earthly idea of what you were speaking. Now I have received three "invitations" to reveir products and place their banners on our little blog.
It really seems like a ploy for some stalker to find our homes or work places. And I'm not buying into that sickness and danger.
Good for you!!!!!

This didn't turn you off of the whole blogging thing, did it? If so, that's very sad.

If this is the last post, then this has to be a contender for the most short-lived sex blog ever.
