Those insights are incredibly interesting, G!

One just can't imagine what effort you all put in this.
Defending a Japanese clothing forum against Russian spam bots is the last thing i would have thought about 

I hope they keep calm over Christmas

@Giles @Alex I don't know if something is going on behind the scenes or if it's on my end…For the last two days when I have made a post, it takes forever to upload to the forum.  Is there something wrong on your end or possibly mine?

[Daniel San]

had the same problems!

[Alex]

I’ve noticed that too, but put it down to slow 3G connection. I’ll take it up with the tech team, thank you. @goosehd

[goosehd]

[Giles]

I have been having exactly the same problem today….

@Giles

…what do you think? A) Cut the bail and ram it through? Or, grab a pair of pliers and rip it out from

whence it came? ???

[Giles]

Never needed to tr it myself, but this method is supposed to be the best…..

@Giles apologies if you've been asked this before but what are your thoughts on having an IH exclusive fading contest? Maybe just on the forum?

[Jcaz6996]

@Giles @Alex hope you had a great bank holiday.
What happened to the DWC why did that come to an end? just been looking through the previous comps. The best part… IH designing a pair of jeans for that year incredible , would love something like that to run again.. what are the chances? I bet there is a load of forum members who would love to be apart of this..

[Daniel San]

Good question James

[Jcaz6996]

Let’s go
2 year fading comp that’s crazy good..
With IH prizes
Entry fee to cover the prizes

[Alex]

I'll answer, though this was a bit before my time so @Giles may want to add more..

The DWC was never an Iron Heart specific contest, in the sense that we did not organise it. It was put together and run by @Megatron1505, and Iron Heart helped make jeans and sponsor/judge etc etc. I think Gavin got busy, and the admin required to manage the participants was very taxing. A break was taken at some point, and it never returned. In the interim, the Indigo Invitational was born, and I am not sure that we need two competing contests in the world. (but that is just me). If the guys from the II wanted to make an II/IH collaboration jean to coincide with a future contest, I would be open to it, but we have not been asked
