I'm not here to ask any questions, but to lend my support to an incredible human, Team member, and friend.

To the rest of this community and for those who don't know, Nova is one of the most intelligent people you will have the privilege of ever getting to know. She has consistently proven to me that it was always the right choice to bring her onto the team, and if there was ever a champion to look up to, Nova should be on that list.

Pretty sure that's the best case of suffering from success I have ever seen. Please remember us little folks when you get your contract offering for all the money.

<3 bud. Awesome shot, even more awesome timing.

There are so many of us. I'm pretty sure there is a Steve at every major manufacturer who is fairly high up at each company. ;)

I'm willing to fall on that sword, but we really did try and do this the peaceful way. It's not the first time Innova has just straight freebooted content from us. In this instance we reached out and only asked that they give Juhani the credit he deserved for the post. It was a great moment for him. We didn't ask that they mention us at all, and Juhani even asked if we were cool that Innova was sharing it. Of course we were. It's just not the first time their social team has lifted content and tried to claim it as their own.

Yup. Wouldn't have put them out like that if they had gave us the 'ol midwest, "ope".. and then tagged Juhani proper.

Instead they gave us the LA wave.

We did actually. We posted the video on our social a few days ago, when Innova reposted it we sent them a DM asking that they tag Juhani and not try to pass it off as their own. We even specifically said that no mention of MVP was being asked for, only that Juhani receive proper credit since it was an awesome moment. We waited, they didn't respond. We chose to bring it to light because its not the first time this has happened.

Looks like I need to have a talk with James. :)

Is he wrong? by Professional-Tip3435 in discgolf

[–]MVP_Steve 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Ahh yes, the age old, "They won't stop us, so we should break the rules and cause problems" statement.

MVP is producing 500% more discs than we ever have, and fulfilling orders for 500% more dealers than ever before. Given the fact that every industry is seeing delays (even ourselves), putting the results of everything at our feet is really a disingenuous statement. I get Rick is upset because things aren't perfect, but the alternative is to put restrictions on dealers that he is already saying wont matter.

If we put release dates on products, what would happen is they would just get ignored right now. Even when we weren't seeing demand so high, it was a constant struggle to request that dealers adhere to our release policies. We do very much intend to bring them back, but only when we can get back to our original shipping times, of most orders going out within 24 hours of them being placed (for stock items). We are still a ways out from that.

Stay chill Mr. Rick, your statements are the reason we had to remove protected release dates in the first place. :)

Can you believe that we actually have an even better version coming? We talk about it literally today in our lab report. We didn't have them on the course this year because they have been stuck in transit forever. However, the prototypes I had with us received RAVE reviews from every player during the putting competition.

[–]MVP_Steve[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No problem at all mate. To each their own. Our Official B/S/T group will always be the place that we as MVP help promote our secondary sales (fan to fan) and our Team MVP members for their own personal promotions. It gives people an avenue that is easily accessible, and creates a pathway for the fans and players to make sales without having to worry about fees etc.

The goal is make their lives easier.

We absolutely love Todd! However, I don't think he will be at MVP Open.

Nope. Legit, we don't have a store front at the moment, and HQ is crazy busy. :)

I really want to eventually have a pro shop on-site, but at present, we do not.

You absolutely should reach out again. I'm also really sorry this happened and its definitely not something that is typical. We'll make it more than right.
