Unbelievable Fisher Labs... You blew this one.

Today, I was simply scrolling through my facebook posts, and about choked when a downblouse shot of a gal with a metal detector showed up on my timeline. It was revealing enough I probably would have gotten in trouble at work if a co-worker had walked by. I KNOW I would have been embarrassed if my wife had walked by.

I contacted FisherLabs and asked them to remove it. Their response? It was a user post, and they're going to allow it because it's not "Explicit." REALLY?

So... people have to be having SEX on your photo threads to remove them? That was it for me.

I posted my opinion on the matter, and promptly unfollowed, then blocked the site completely.

That F44 I was toying with as a replacement for my son's ACE350... nope.

Fine... If people want to post those photos, by all means, I FULLY support their right to do so. But that does NOT mean I have to support them. Nor does it mean I am obligated to continue supporting the company who thinks "family friendly" includes a look down a gals shirt.

AND...when we start suggesting, as a society, that people who have "negative" opinions shouldn't be allowed to speak... that's... well... that's BAD.

Rant over.

Skippy

Wow if I used the same criteria, I would not own a car, motorcycle, my guns, and I should probably just ditch my tv as well. The F44 is such a much better machine than the Ace so it will be your loss, lol. I hope Fender guitars doesn't use sexy women to advertise, I will have to sell the old Strat too!

I find it hard to Believe she wears a White T like that to detect.
I know if I wore something that clean & White, it would be trash after the first hour.

unless she's got clean dirt there, Or detects but Doesn't personally retrieve.
My guess She prettied herself up for the Photo shoot.

Nothing wrong with that.

Reminds me of some of the Old Whites adds on the Covers of Mags

I do not even want to see me. A picture of me next to a picture of any women MDing on the beach and we all know who is going to win that vote

Yup, pretty female detectorists get all the views on YouTube. I find coins and relics from the 1700's and have 125 subscribers to my channel. A newbie called "she detector" finds jack squat in her videos and has 4,300 subscribers. Sex sells...

That's like any business that sells! Put good looking outgoing girls behind the counter and old guys(no offense old guys, I'm getting there too:laughing7:) Will hang out and buy stuff just to come talk to the girls! It works! I know! :laughing7: Get rid of the girls and sales drop like a rock! It's reality! How much we want to stay moral or deny it.:laughing7: I did it with a small coin shop for a short time, my wife and her friend who were outgoing and flirted with everyone, The sales shot through the roof, me and the other guy would come back from auctions and people would be standing in the place all over hanging out!:laughing7: We did lose some to theft or cons that are fast with their hands, but the loss here and there from the two girls not paying attention was made up, through what they sold. If I ever am able to open a business again! Girls are in the plan! It works!

Hi; A funny thing just happened. I put on the Discovery Channel here and what a DISCOVERY I made.!!! :laughing7: They have an actual TV Series called "NAKED & AFRAID." and yes it shows a man and woman "completely" NAKED.!!!! They blur out the Private Parts but you can still see them walking around totally "BARE ASS." This is a "National" TV Channel to boot. Go Figure. !!!!!!! PEACE:RONB

Well that is odd, I am never afraid when I am naked; in fact I am very confident. Just does not work well with an MD, things tend to get in the way. But never afraid.

Darn Skippy. Garrett sells sex, too. I guess you'll have to sell yours and find something else for your son. Or not. I am guessing your MD of choice will have to do more to offend your sensibilities. But I see no difference in the marketing tactics you are objecting to. In fact, Garrett is wayyy more explicit. And I am sure this chick doesn't even know how to use a metal detector.
