I know i'm new on these boards and probably shouldn't be writing in this thread but if i could advise you on one thing.

"After seeing their business plan from the inside I can tell you with a firm belief that they will be successful etc"

I would stop with this. Most of the people you are trying to repair things with hate them and don't want to hear about them in general. I honestly think if you stop talking about them, as well as saying stuff like "if you don't like me fuck you" etc it may help. These two things are on every post you write.

I started reading these threads a little bit before this all happened and from my view you just broke a lot of peoples trust in you. People bought a shitload of traffic from you and over time were led to believe you were a friend or cared about them and their sites etc. It happens to me a lot at my mainstream job, i start to feel of my boss like hes one of the family but then work gets slow during the summer and i either get forced into part time or temporarily laid off.

Anyway, you go to and start working for what most here refer to as the enemy and pretty much betray them in their eyes. You then try to ban a fellow gfyer for mentioning it and pretty much tell people fuck your views and beliefs on this, your friendships didn't mean squat, i could care less about your financial futures i just care about my own. I'm not saying you shouldn't have taken the job just that you should expect people to be pissed off and hurt because of how you handled everything.

Trying to ban that one guy kind of showed people you don't give a fuck about them, or at least led them to believe that in my opinion.

I don't love or hate ya as i have never done business or really spoken with you, just sharing the way i saw this unfold as it seems you may not understand why people are so angry.

hope it helps, best of luck with everything.
