What was good, what was bad

[Proz]

We're fully aware of the issues that people have with our Safety this year and the lack of space which is why we're moving to a new location but it would be a big help to hear why your father was considering us "unorganized". We need more details.

Compared to SJ1.5 / 2008, we've grown leaps & bounds to be nearly double in size based on attendance. We've made many improvements since then in scheduling and trying to streamline the convention but also experiencing a lot of growing pains along with it.

Idea: Would putting up posters every 20 feet to remind people about not sitting down in the narrow hallways (this will be the case again at the HBG Conv. Center) be helpful at all?

How about "No Loitering" signs IN said areas? Makes more sense, IMHO.

IMHO Having those kinda signs would be give off the wrong kind of feel for the con. We are very chill. I think just going back to training our Safety team and teaching them how to be nice and helpful with a good tone will be best. Good energy all around will end in happy people. We should focus on weeding out the bad apples and educate people why sitting with your legs out in a narrow hall is a bad idea.

Fair enough. Just a thought.

I agree with Jay on this one.

In Proz's defense, I would actually argue that this year was wonderfully organized, there were some bumps here and there, but for the most part it was run really well. As for the other problem about people sitting in the halways with their legs sticking out, i would say that they shouldnt do that, but i also understand that there is limited sitting space and being how the con is a full day thing, people get tired and just want to chill on the floor, so id say to tell the security to just take it easy on them

Sitting on the floor is one thing. Sitting on the floor with legs sticking out in the middle of the walkway is something else entirely - not really sure someone can be very chill when they're trying to avoid getting tripped multiple times..

Just sayin'.

Try carrying a heavy freaking guitar amp through a crowd of two thousand+/- people, including people sitting in the hallways like that.
