Can he do that?!

hell, I'd feel sorry for the doctor- he'd have to keep a straight face.
I love the domain dispute idea. If not the action, the fantasy of it makes me feel good ^^

I'd make a banner, but I'm TRYING to be the better... man?- whatever.
Though I VERY much appreciate the support!

As far as I'm concerned, and really it's none of my buisness but still, the asshole stole from you. Yes, he did pay for it, BUT it was intended for your personal use, and gave no warning that that would ever change. Hell, I'm sure you'd pick up the tab for it eventually. It's like giving someone a present, and then taking it back and then using it to further their own twisted sense of self satisfaction. Once you give someone a present, it is theirs.

Rip his balls off. Not with your hands, mind, he seems like a perverse sack of crap who would get off on that. Do it with scalding tongs or something.

That guy reminds me of my Aunt, actually.

And while I wouldn't go insane trying to get revenge (mostly because I don't have rkolter's dedication to the task and would feel too guilty afterwards) I would do exactly what you are doing: Let people know you're back on Comic Genesis and that the man did not behave professionally. And change your listings on all the list sites you belong to...and join the ones you haven't, yet. Continue to behave professionally and people will like you even more.

Definitely engage in Christwriters ideas. I just wanted to make you smile on the inside.

Well...I've also imagined supergluing my Aunts door shut, so that when she gets back from India (such a waste of a good trip) she can't get back in the room.

Imagined revenge is fun. It's just that icky retribution part that makes actually doing it a really bad idea.

That's why you don't superglue her bedroom door shut. Instead, you put a live mouse in her bathtub. Let her assume it got there from the sewer. Then a few nights later, take the heating vent off your grill in your room and rub a nail along the inside, preferably while your aunt is in another room, near a duct. The scratching noise will radiate through the home.

She'll be hearing mice for weeks, if not months, inside the walls.

I like that idea!

To add further to this idea, you might wish to make some dark, thick mud. Really thick, like potting dirt with the tiniest bit of water in it. Then make up some of your own mouse turds. I have an image with coins for size I found on google:

Let them dry, and then put these in her bed, under the sheets. Small piles of four or five randomly spaced. Put them wherever you like, really, but especially around her heating grate, which you should work slightly ajar.

... you could also get a dead mouse from a pet store and put it in the back of your oven. Let someone cook something. The smell will be horrendous - oh no! A mouse killed in my oven! Eeeeeeee!

The point is to use your imagination and play this out over a couple months... nothing for a couple weeks, then surprise! Some rat turds in the pantry (never the refrigerator - they can't get in there without breaking the seal). Wait a couple weeks, then surprise! Rat in the oven! The only thing you should do fairly regularly is the nail scraping in the duct - once or twice a night, just for a moment or two.

Your aunt will go insane with worry.

Christwriter · Post by **Christwriter** » Mon Apr 03, 2006 4:45 pm

...that is SO tempting. Because we had a rat last year that scratched on the underside of the bathtub (it was between the first floor ceiling and the second floor's floor) for HOURS at night, and it freaked her out so bad...

I wouldn't go as far as to put the live mouse in the tub--mostly because one of her cats would kill it, and I couldn't do that to the mouse--but mouse turds in her bed...sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo tempting.

So who is this guy that screwed you over, Catlegend? We keep talking about how you should spread the word on what a jerk he is, but we need to know who he is first. And I really do just want to know so I can avoid him myself, along with everyone else doing the same.

Catlegend · Post by **Catlegend** » Mon Apr 03, 2006 11:53 pm

Well, he's REALLY paranoid, so I don't doubt he searches for his name. BUT...
John Hernandez from the Rampage Network. He also goes by Horatio, Borg or Doc

I'm not saying what happened to me would you, I'm just saying, careful and know your rights.

Horatio · Post by **Horatio** » Sat Apr 22, 2006 1:24 pm

Its nice to know how effective propaganda is online. I am surprised no one has asked for the other side of the story, which is why I still have members, but owell. If I was honestly a cold hearted person, why would I be in debt trying to help other comics artists out by paying for huge server costs and renewing domains?? Why would I waste hours of my time designing layouts, fixing bugs, coming up with new features; all for no profit at all. Ya, I dont make any cash at all off of this network nor do I ever plan to.

I don’t want this thread to go into a flame war, and I will not be replying to it, You guys can just take the rumors you hear on the street and live with it I guess. But I really wish people would always remember there are two sides to a story, how would it make sense that out of the blue I said “hey I think I will start ignoring my responsibilities that I have willingly chosen out of the goodness of heart and ignore Catlegend and then kick her out for no reason”. But I guess that’s life and no one can be liked by everyone.

This ain't the street, and this isn't some FOAF-rumor. This is a firsthand account.
I notice you didn't bother presenting your "side" either. You just claimed it was stupid to think you'd tossed Catlegend out for no reason, but never gave a valid reason why yourself.

It's good to hear you won't be responding further, because I for one have a low tolerance for bullshit.

Sam_Charette · Post by **Sam_Charette** » Sat Apr 22, 2006 4:01 pm

Agreed. It's not like we are listening to gossip here. We have the testimony of one of the parties involved. That's as good as it gets, really. If you want us to believe that there is a reason for this, then you're the one who needs to supply it.

Ultimately, though, even if you have a falling out, the nice thing to do would be to arrange to forward the domain name that you bought for her to her new location. To do otherwise, especially without telling anyone why, is only going to make you out to look like a major shit.

If there are extenuating circumstances, great. But until we hear them, we can't do much except for take the situation to be you being an ass. In a "your word vs theirs" situation, you lose if you don't give up your word.

Rkolter · Post by **Rkolter** » Sat Apr 22, 2006 5:15 pm

Ahem.

horratio has a point.

Not that I don't like or trust catlegend, but we didn't get his side.

That said, he thread necromancied to complain that we didn't get his side, without telling us what his side is, and while promising not to respond to us.

Now let's all go play nice in other threads and let this one go back to the second, third, fourth pages or beyond.
