> posted on www.mikesouth.com: I’m assuming you didn’t go to the Awards show, as you had no complaints about it.
I’m sure I won’t be the first or last to express this, but I’ll give you my thoughts.
I would like you to post this if you like, but please label it from
an anonymous award winner. Truthfully, I don’t have your balls when
it comes to pissing off AVN.
I’m sure the complaints about the choice to move the Awards show
venue will be pouring in, so I won’t be redundant.
For me, the worst thing of all was the fact that AVN has switched
from having winners whose awards are announced on the big video
screens getting their awards mailed to them instead of picking them
up in the back of the hall. This totally robs the winners of getting
their physical award that night, and being able to go through the
crowd of fans showing off their achievement. I know as an award
winner myself that I was very very disappointed that I was unable to
walk out the door award in hand. Shame on you, AVN for robbing me and
every other screen-announced winner to save a few bucks. What
happened? Did Mark Kernes raise his rates for handing out the awards
in the back?
