His post doesn't come off as an impartial observer that has just stumbled across this thread at all. - Christian is, or is planning to, fulfill orders OUT OF HIS OWN POCKET™ - Christian, inexplicably, should be exonerated for this "generosity", despite the fact that it is a long-overdue obligation of his—if not a legal obligation (due to potential "LLC" loopholes), then definitely an ethical obligation - Christian is a delicate flower, and if posters here are "mean" to him, he's taking his toys and going home Do I have the Mameroom/Christian/SlikStik/Mega24/whatever mantra about right? --- End quote --- :applaud: |

--- Quote from: FrizzleFried on January 09, 2008, 10:19:42 am ---Mega24 felt passionate enough with this thread that he made his first post in it?! :laugh2: --- End quote --- --- Quote from: Tiger-Heli on January 09, 2008, 10:31:19 am ---Mega24 seems to have a very good handle on what is going on, so perhaps he is one of the other employee's of SlickStick. --- End quote --- Perhaps Mega24 was the SlikStik Tea Lady ?? :dunno --- Quote from: Mega24 on January 09, 2008, 09:00:05 am ---SlikStik THE COMPANY went under --- End quote --- Companies are run by people. Where did the money go, for those customers who've coughed up their cash, and received nothing in return ?? Who controlled the purse strings ?? The people who run the company, are the ones who spend the money, or otherwise "siphon it off" into their own personal accounts. Of course, they can siphon off the money under the guise of "wages", after all, they're "employees" of the company, right ?? ... they can pay themselves whatever wage they want, and live the "high life" off other people's funds. The money could potentially have ended up anywhere. Hypothetically speaking, the SlikStik founder could be riding around on a nice new Harley, funded with the money received for unfulfilled CP orders. All legitimate & above board, of course ... he was entitled, as an "employee" of SlikStik, to pay himself his "wages". ;) --- Quote from: Mega24 on January 09, 2008, 09:00:05 am ---He made arrangements with several customers that got stuck after the bankruptcy to make good on their deals. HE DID NOT HAVE TO DO THIS. --- End quote --- He knows how to watch out for his own hide. The heat is on, probably a lot more so than he expected. The authorities are investigating SlikStik and the people behind it. In light of this, better to be seen to be "doing what he can" to make amends for this mess. :angel: |

I really really *really* was trying to stay out of this thread other than to watch it for rules violations and civility(?)... I have to jump in with one point though because it comes up time and time again on threads that get contentious. Right now, there are 48 guests and 56 users on the forum. At a very unscientific rough guess from that, we probably have about 50% lurkers on the forum who have been here for an unknown length of time. At some point, something will motivate them to respond and they register. I don't know who Mega24 is and don't care one way or another (not a negative, you're very welcome here, it's just not pertinent to my point). My point is that when someone newly registered makes a first post in a contentious thread, if they take the popular side no one notices. If they take a position that gets someone's goat up, they get called a phony. It may or may not be true but as a rule of thumb I give them the benefit of the doubt until proven otherwise. My 2 bits and off my soapbox now. --- saint |
