Oh but the REAL hilarity has not even begun. You will actually be the center piece of this unfolding drama little Rumpelstiltskin.

More provocation from you James

As per the other RS thread I will not post here for a while until you have decided to calm down a bit.

UPDATE;
For those who weren't quick enough to read the RS Blog, it has been purged. Handling tips and routine variations have been erased.

Those who have asked if this is a technical glitch have been answered with "content will be deleted monthly..."

So, like me, if you didn't think to capture and save what was written (Why should we? That's what a Blog is, right?) it's too late now.

No notice, nothing. Just GONE.

Well, that would be how it has to be. people who joined in May shouldn't have access to April material.

Possibly...

Trouble is, April people are cut off as well.

In my opinion, they had plenty of time to work this out before going "live"

Real Secrets team seems to enjoy the shock teaching method. Very effective.
But really, I only read the Blog once, I remember what it said.

Why all this hassle? RS has CLEAR rules. Rules are there to be followed and acted upon. Some people always think they must or have the right to break the rules and wonder when they get punished. I myself think it is very well done what they do, being a creator that has been ripped off many times I fully understand the reasoning behind. If you don't like it, just simply don't join it and turn your energy towards other things. Life is too short and magic too deep to waste time on stuff like this...

Welcome to the Café Alexander. It's a privilege to have you here.

I have all your dvds. I like the one about thumbtips the most.

Please would you let us know about your scrapbook. It looks very interesting.

You'll probably get a lot of responses, since you asked so nicely.

So far, neither. I don't love it yet nor do I feel ripped off. I'm going to give it a couple more months to see whether it's for me or not.

These guys are doing everything right, Great, great magic. On time delivery. The creation of ANTICIPATION with their marketing. The ensuing "controversies." All PERFECT. Well done Real Secrets Team. And well done all subscribers who are reaping the benefits of real, practical and clever magic.

If you're keeping score, put me down for unhappy (not for the product, but for customer service)

You can't put me down as happy. (Not sure this poll is necessary. If Real Secrets doesn't keep the majority of its customers happy, it will fold rather quickly given that you can quit any time and get the rest of your subscription price back.)

I believe Dave V quit because he was upset that they erased the notes for the first effect without informing the subscribers.

You are not happy either? Did you write "can't" on purpose? I thought you liked the Real Secrets items so far.

Well, as Herbert Bayard Swope said "I can't give you a sure-fire formula for success, but I can give you a formula for failure: try to please everybody all the time."

I'm very VERY satisfied!
So fun to watch this all unfold...let nothing jinx it.

RS has been for me perfect and quite mysterious.
I want this Real Secrets Team to live long...and prosper.

April, May, the various online notes...I honestly already feel that I have gotten beyond the value of my subscription fee.

Please mark me as Happy!

Looks like happy people are way ahead of unhappy or neutral people so far.

This is a really important survey. Thanks for kicking it off djurmann.
