No, but then I don't have a lot of reason to believe it went down that way. It seems a lot more likely to me that Carey got a letter or phone call similar in tone and content to the one I got from Tanya A. Yatsco back in September.
http://fornits.com/wwf/viewtopic.php?mo ... =9&start=0The salient content is this, in case you're having a difficult time seeing the similarity: " Such postings must immediately be removed from your website and you must cease and desist posting any such items in the future. Failure to do so will result in legal action against Fornits and the infividuals posting these defamatory statements." and this "Again, if the defamatory postings regarding Academy at Ivy Ridge are not immediately removed, we will commense suit against you."
Now, they didn't offer me any money. But then, I'm not holding any information that would be costly or difficult for them to get for themselves. But they did just exactly as I've seen other people say they do; they use a carrot and stick approach; do what we ask or we'll sue. Now, I have a fairly good idea of what my rights and obligations are and I know that no one can force me into involuntary servitude like that, not legally anyway. So I called their bluff.
Carey and I have our differences of opinion. You'd know that, of course, if you had any interest whatever in the conversations that go on publicly in these forums other than the perennial group comedown sessions. But we have one thing in common, I think, that seperates us from all you ppl who keep bitching and bellyaching about the way I run this
free server that you keep using. We both want all the information out. We're not trying to shut anybody up.
You folks and WWASP have that in common, though. You seem to have a difficult time understanding the concept that no one is responsible for controling your fingers and your keyboard but you yourself. And you are not responsible for what anyone else says. They are. You have not the power or obligation to try and shut anybody up, ok?
