Good seminars, reps that can make decisions and actually make deals, and lots of attendants ( real working webmasters ) would make them a lot more appealing.

It would be nice if sponsors cared for other things, like loyalty, years promoting them, consistent traffic, etc, referrals, etc, and invited the average webmaster, just so it would be a mix of small, medium and biggies ;)
So you aren't going because other people that aren't going said they were not worth it?

As far as being "just an affiliate" is concerned, you would be surprised what a face-to-face meeting will do.

Last week an affiliate rep told me they could not provide what I wanted. A few minutes talking at Internext and I had what I wanted.

As far as doing all your biz via ICQ, that will never work, because people have a tendency to abbreviate their thoughts when forced to write it out, whereas, when speaking the conversations can get deeper since there are no worries of cramped fingers.

Never. I am never really sure if you are looking for more work or not, so my comments may or may not apply to you.
