Re: A warning to all about Rick Olney

BigMack, I don't believe you are a sockpuppet and I think you are only trying to help. Rick's had a long history of sockpuppetry, he's been busted on it more than once, but I always prefer to just assume people are telling the truth until the evidence says otherwise. There is absolutely no reason fo...

Re: A warning to all about Rick Olney

On a nicer note, can you guys recommend your favorite small handful of strips to check out here? I've looked at some, but there are so many it'd be nice to have some idea of which individual creators are doing work you folks in this forum respect the most. Any suggestions? I don't think you'd be ab...

Re: A warning to all about Rick Olney

Dear Comics Professional... Oh well *leaves* :wink: heh. As I said above, at this point, the pro community knows what kind of man Rick is. It was a huge mistake for him to try to cheat people with such sterling reputations as Chuck Dixon (the very DEFINITION of professional) and Val Staples (who so...

Re: A warning to all about Rick Olney

I'd rather not have anyone deal with idiots like him. I've been robbed by stupid con hosts before, and even though they wouldn't give my money back, they still resold my table. Making double the profit off one seat. Fuck them, and fuck anyone like them. More comics, more nice peoples, less sleaze, ...

Re: A warning to all about Rick Olney

It occured to me that even though most of the people on Comic Genesis aren't "Comic's Proffesionals", it's good to get the warning out. When you don't have alot of experience, proffesional or otherwise, it can be easy for guys like Olney to lure you into situations like this. Maybe Unscrewed and Co...

Re: A warning to all about Rick Olney

I'm sorry that this thing spilled over into the Noses Optional forum. Those are nice girls, and I like their strip quite a lot, and obviously, they have nothing really to do with Rick. It's Rick's associate Dennis that they are friends with, and there's no need to clutter up their message board with...

I've asked everyone at Yabs not to post here, hopefully that will be the end of that. And I do recommend people read the strip. I think that some of what has been said has been misconstrued for whatever reason and I disagree that there was no trigger posted here, but I don't think it's worth quibbli...

Nevertheless, I agree that this isn't the best possible first set of posts. The important thing is to say I like the strip, I wish you every success, and please feel free to email me at gailcbr@yahoonospam.com if there's anything I can do to help. Best wishes, and I withdraw from this thread (though...

"Hmmm... how would Picard handle the Borg Queen? " Huh...funny, but I don't remember Picard being a serial deadbeat who uses racist and homophobic slurs, and threatens people he's cheated.

Pay the people you've cheated, deadbeat. I dealt with your 'check's in the mail! REALLY this time!' nonsense for two years. You've insulted and threatened people with sterling reputations, like Chuck and Val. When Val Staples was cheated by CrossGen, he moved into his parents' house and sold all his...

It's very simple, Rick. We have dozens of people whom you have cheated, many of whom even you've admitted to not paying. Do you EVER intend to pay them? Simple. I know you love to pretend anyone cares about you other than as a deadbeat, but I promise you, pay the people you owe and you will go back ...

In answer to the implied question of a previous poster, I do in fact intend on attending PittCon next year if at all possible. This year's claim that I would attend was due to a mistake on behalf of the organizers, which they have apologized for quite graciously. I will be handing out information an...
