Why is Studio Veena Bias towards X-Pole?
-
I have been on this website for about a year now. I have to say I have never noticed it being biased towards any company. I am a vendor for Xpole, LM, and PS….and the "kickback" or actually the commission is quite small. I was motivated to by my first PS from this website. I've received great customer service from all the companies. I've found for my self and for my clients that everyone prefers a diiferent pole. I dont think Veena needs to be a vendor for every type of product. That's ridiculous.

Usually when someone is this upset about something this inconsequental it means that there is really something else going on. Often…when I find that I am unrealistly bothered by something it means I should take a good look at myself and see what it is about MYSLEF that I am having a problem with. Are you just having an off day? I'm noticed everyone on here as being kind and supportive. I'm sure that they could help you with whatever it is you are going through. If you dont figure it out,. You will just end up feeling worse. Negativity is unhealthy and it will just fester inside of you.

None of us should waste a minute of our lifes on nonsense comments. I found this web looking for ideas to run one (non pole related). ended up getting the lessons and bying a pole. Guess wich one…. Does it matter? The thing is me an my 2 daughters are hooked on it thanks to this comunity i am more tolerant, less critical and more possitive. Please don’t change. Love your real names.

And if this site did not support free speech and a sharing of ideas and opinions, this thread would not have appeared on the daily update, nor would it have been up for several days. As I get ‘older’ i realize that some people just have some twisted need to be surrounded by drama 24/7 like they feed on it. Everyone here is entitled to an opinion, but dont think that nasty coments will be tolerated here without some sort of response.
Happy poling in 2012!

Last time I checked it was called "StudioVeena" not "StudioPayton"….

I just wanted to say that reading this thread has made me so proud of the majority of the Veena community. All the responses to the original post have been respectful and well written, and I agree with @pegasusaerialfitness when she says that the community here would be more than happy to support @paytonplays however we can.
Let's drop the negativity and just be glad that there are people out there like Veena and Webmaster who have created this amazing community for us to enjoy! You can't please everyone all the time and I think they've done a great job at pleasing most people most of the time – which is more than a lot of websites can say!
So having said that, @StudioVeena and @Webmaster, thank you for all your hard work! Keep it up 🙂 -
This is VEENA"S site… if she chooses to support X-Pole then that is her business. How do you know that other companies just dont want her selling their products. AND if that is not the case, WHO CARES? she can support whoever she wants to if someone doesnt like it then LEAVE and find another awesome social net working site for pole dancers with online lessons… IF YOU CAN! Lol silly silly people.

This is just like asking someone why they ONLY wear one brand of clothing… Because that's what they want to wear… Veena wants to support X-pole therefore she promotes it. SO WHAT if she gets paid to do it?
I'm not trying to argue with anyone. I am also stating my opion on the matter.

Also, i've never read of Veena downgrading any other companies on her site so i don't really see what the big fuss is about?

You want to know the funny thing? I have had HEAPS of problems with x-pole when I first got my pole. Customer service is great once you get in contact with them (PHONE CALLS NEEDED!).
But I'm upgrading and I'm going to get an xpert!
why? Because although I had heaps of problems, they did sort it all out in the end and it didn't cost me an extra penny! Joint was jammed within 3 weeks of putting up and they saw the sad track record I had with my pole (really unlucky!) and just sent me a new A and B pole. I had to phone them again to tell them I also needed the joint! Which they sent! 😀
So I guess I'm sticking with them because I know that when the water rises, they'll be there to help out. I'm sure other companies are great too. But I trust xpole. I do wish their costumer service via e-mail was better though.

i cant say anything bad about an x pole as i have never owned one, but i LOVE lil mynx!!! also i dont plan on buying an x pole because the next i want is brass and x pole only uses brass coating, i wud want a 100% brass, also i hear they r made in china, is this right? i kno most people dont care where they r made but i like USA made since i live there and thats where lil mynx comes from! also hear PS are USA made, correct? next poles i buy will be lil mynx again or PS! just thought id put that out there lol
-
ya hey lopsijulie, i had emailed x pole a few times when i was trying to decide between lil mynx and x pole and lil mynx responded in less than an hr! so i went with lil mynx, plus i decided powder coated wud be good for me, i never heard back from x pole. so i can agree with u on that one.

Hello everyone.
I would just like to say that no matter what products we all use and prefer, I just want us all to come together as a community and as an industry. The more we all work together, the stronger our industry and community will be.
It's silly to argue and segregate based upon what brands some of us prefer. Not everyone is going to like the same thing.
Obviously, I work for Platinum Stages and I love our products, but that doesn't mean that I have negative things to say about the other companies and that I do not want to get along with and support X-pole or Lil Mynx advocates (or any other pole company). I do not dislike supporters of other pole companies and I respect everyone's opinion.
The only way we the pole community can come together is to love one another, respect each other, work together and work as a team. We all have opinions but that doesn't mean we can't all respect one another and be united.
So no matter what pole company you prefer or what products you endorse, please know you have our love and support here at Platinum Stages. We truly admire and adore each and every one of you. Thank you for inspiring us and keeping the love of pole dancing alive.
<3
Anyways, just my opinion. 🙂
Much Love,
– Erica @ Platinum Stages
* P.S. Thank you for all the kind words about my hard work at Platihum Stages. I truly value all of your feedback and am working dilligently to ensure that Platinum Stages is constantly improving and will continue to do the very best that we can.

Notice how the person that started this topic has not replied in 6 days? Seems to me she was just looking to start and argument and get some attention. Lets all move on….

HAHA! You are so right!!!

How about everyone saying how awessome XPole, PS, and LM are. I love my PS because it is so much more comfortable for me, and I love how it goes all the way up to the ceiling. I love my LM because it is so easy to set up and when I dont stick very well it's a life saver. And I love my Xpole, because it is so easy customize to fit my needs if I travel with it. (Sorry…dont know about any other pole makers:(….)

I'm actually going to speak up and say that I DID noticed a push towards x pole in the forum up until very recently. This is the reason I didn;t get a PS pole for so long. I was led to believe that they had horrible service, which is not true.
However, it's not Veena or the forums doing. The push against PS is done by only a few individuals who make the same remarks in almost every fourm I've been to, not just veena's. This forum is NOT promoting only X pole, what you are seeing is a few individual's strong opinions.
That being said, I own both X poles and PS poles and think they are both great in their own way. X pole chrome is amazing and is my favourite summer pole. PS brass is my choice for dry winter weather. I'm also open to new poles from different companies.
-
If you refer back to my post, it has only been recently that PS has really tried to go out of their way for their customers (Thank you Erica). Many of the people you see that have negatives against PS are ones that have been in this game for quite a few years and have had issues with PS in the past. But even those that have had issues (and mostly with the Star Stand Alone and multipiece) still use and purchase their one piece poles.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA this is retarded. THERE F*CKING POOOOOOLES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GET OVER IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Or get out.

I am deeply disappointed and disgusted by this forum, the subjects are not important, what matters is how we treat them, the choice of words used and the attitude we have. This person has not understood what were the values ​​and choices of Studio Veena. Thus, such behavior is not welcome on this site.Veena and her team have chosen to help the pole community positively and all those who do not meet this vision are asked to leave and stop wasting our time.Thinking before acting can be a good resolution for the New Year…
-
PP says "Shame on this web site for not promoting all companies and products Thi should be a non-bias website promoting pole, not companies."
Veena's site is whatever she wants it to be. It's her site. Not sure when she handed you the reigns. I'm not gonna read all of this thread b/c I already read the last one but what I will say is PICK YOUR BATTLES.

Studio409, thank you so much for saying exactly what I was thinking.
Paytonplays, no one here has a problem with you "speaking" your mind. You're right. This is a free country and we all have the right to express our opinions. However, you chose to express yours in an extremely rude, inconsiderate manner. Everytime someone told you it was your approach that was the problem, NOT your opinion, you answered with the same nonsensical reply (that you can express your opinions because this is a free country). No one ever argued that point with you in this forum. Perhaps if you took the time to read and think carefully before you replied you would answer in an appropriate manner with an appropriate reply.
Personally, I think your opinions are incredibly skewed. Why should this site promote all companies? Should it promote companies that make obviously shoddy materials as well as those that excel? Your rant makes no sense.

Wow! Nasty, nasty!!
@PaytonPlays, I have felt so safe on this website from attitudes like yours . I am also pleased to see that this kind of behavior is not very welcome. "Free speech" or not, this is a pole community where we build one another up, rather than tear others down. StudioVeena is also not a government-run company in which each member should feel the need to exercise all of their American rights. SV is actually very international, so all of your claims of rights probably don't mean anything to those members. However, StudioVeena does have their own "Terms of Service." Perhaps you should look over these and then decide to take the nasty attitude elsewhere.
As far as the topic goes… what a petty thing to jeopardize one's integrity over! I vote this forum topic is closed/removed for libel against such an incredibly supportive community and company as StudioVeena.
