“Back in 2007/8 our concept was to raise the bar for spanking parties and lift them to a new level. We successfully achieved this and became the role model and template for many other parties not only around the country but the world. The fact that is will be our last tropical beach party doesn’t mean the quality will change,” said Vice President Ian Head.

I had nothing but good wishes when I first started reading this post. Florida is where Lyn and I always took our vacations, so we could be with the spanko community there, and they have always been some of the best people we have ever known.

However, the self-importance and lack of manner and gratitude expressed in this portion of the post is mind-blowing.

Those of us who throw the large occasional parties owe a HUGE debt of gratitude to Eve and Tony at Shadowlane and Mike, Jon and especially Vince at Crimson Moon. THEY are the giants on whose shoulders the rest of us stood so we could reach higher and higher with regard to quality and size of parties. It is THEY who set the bar so high, and they did it for more than four years before hanging it up. Other large parties like Texas All-State Spanking Party and the new Badness on the Boardwalk deserve their own respect for their successes, due to their own hard work and ingenuity. The idea that the leadership of FMS thinks that these parties, as well as Shadowlane and Crimson Moon, or any other big parties, needed THEM to set a high standard is ridiculous.

I still wish FMS all the best of luck with the Tropical Beach Party as well as all future parties, but don't let it go to your heads.

Incredible!
