The LC 434u.com Manifesto Part 2
Mr. 434u aka "BIGDADDY" Mr. Rob Tidy has made an harassing phone call to me Lawrence Connor, merely an EX-member of his website 434u.com
I just received a phone call at 4:40 AM (Monday March 8th) from Rob Tidy with my phone’s caller ID showing “Unknown” instead of a phone number. I know it was Rob Tidy as I have heard his voice in a previous phone call we have had before via skype. He also identified himself to me as such in this phone call to me as being Roby Tidy. He wanted to let me know he had my phone number and address and was “there” (here, in the USA, as he is from Australia) and that he was coming over to meet me. (?) I asked him what he had, and had to clarify that I was asking what address he had for me as I would want to be sure he had my right address so that we could meet. Then he just said “no dramas mate” and I heard no more from him, I then said, while he probably was hanging up, “you called me to talk to me…”. It seems more than a little odd that the conversation was so short for a man from Australia calling me here in the USA when he claims he has come over here on such a long (and costly) trip to meet me, to keep this call so short when I asked him to be sure he had the right address for me. It seems even odder to do it without my awareness of such a visit in the works at all, that he says he is already here and he is coming over, that he has my address…. And this call is at 4:40 AM eastern time (USA east coast). I, for my part, did not say anything untoward to him in our short call. That is why his response was also so very odd, “No dramas mate..” What I said was no drama, just asking what address he had for me to ensure we could meet, as it was his saying so first that he was already "here/there (nearby) and was already coming over (spoken in the present tense, which means NOW). Stranger still is that I even recieved any such phone call from him to me at all. Why would this call make any sense? What reason? What purpose? What that means to me, is that he was hoping to get me spun up, worked up, upset, or disturbed by this phone call to me at 4:40 AM saying he has my address and is coming over. And that by my not getting upset, that he really didn’t have much more he could say without him sticking his foot in his own mouth further than he already had by even making this phone call to me in the first place. The call ended after I asked him what address he had for me. The short call started by him saying he still had my phone number and address from my having been a member on his site 434u.com, and that he had come over here (to USA from AUS) to meet me. Why? Could there be any sensible cause to make such a long trip to meet a mere previous member of a website? There could not be any good reason for any such thing. Rob Tidy had already removed me as a member from his 434u website and we broke in a rather not nice way, and that was our only rather slight and tenuous connection or association that we had at all anyway. Does it make sense someone like that would call you and tell you they are coming over to your house? At 4:40 AM your time? And given those set of circumstances and being that that little was involved? That little between the two of you? Them being a website owner/admin that you merely had previously been a member at, and are not even anymore? And, oh, by the way, you have published criticisms of him and his site he runs? What if you got such a call from someone you don’t know well, a website owner you had simply been a member at and they did this to you after you have criticised them in how they run themselves and their website? Is this what you reasonably expect of an owner of a website you have joined, AFTER they have removed you as a member, and you no longer even have THATLITTLE bit of connection at all even? Is it sensible? Is it justifiable? Is it even rational? To receive a phone call from a man you do not personally know at 4:40 AM saying (in a surprise to you) that he is coming over to your house now? How do we two know each other? Not much. I used to be a member of a webiste of his? That’s all? Yes. And I am not even a member of this site he has anymore. Think for yourself if any of this makes sense as if it is okay for this call to be made to me by him. Or if it is rather suspicious instead. In fact it is rather very unseemly that I even got such a call at all. So, in that call my response to him was that I want to be sure he has my right address. Then he says “no dramas mate…” And I heard no more from him after he hung up as I was trying to get through by saying that he had called me to talk to me. He ends it so short in an incongruos manner “No dramas mate.” when it was he who had called me, and at that, only a moment before! Now, what I said was not getting upset at all (no drama), but in fact was following quite sensibly that he had expressed that he had my address and was here and coming over now. I wanted to know what address he had for me to be sure he could get here to me so we could meet. What “drama”? No “drama”. Rob Tidy needed to quickly end this call he made to me, to avoid futher mistakes on his part. It was meant to be short and to be harassing and to be intimidating toward me. This phone call he, Mr. Rob Tidy made to me, cannot sensibly be taken in any other way. This call was a call I received at about 4:40 AM, VERY early morning of Monday March 8th 2010. On my cell phone it shows at time 4:39 AM, on 3/8/10 with a duration of 46 seconds, from “Unknown”. I cannot take that as anything other than a harassing phone call, that was meant to be intimidating. It doesn’t remotely fit anything sensible to receive from anyone, nevermind myself and Mr. Rob Tidy. We don’t have any business together making any further contact warranted or reasonable. I have published criticisms of him, his conduct and how he has run his venture in the specific case of his website 434u.com. He removed me as a member from his 434u.com website (okay, he can do that, and that’s where it ends) so that is when and where his control over me also ended. I even specifically let him know that very point at that exact time as well. So, I also now truthfully relate this having taken place now, also. I received what can only be taken as a harassing phone call from Rob Tidy at 4:40 AM telling me he is coming over. I did not respond by being upset one bit. I asked to help him come over to the right place for me to ensure we could meet by asking him what address he had for me. In fact we had no planned meeting of any sort between us both, so this would be as quite a surprise, naturally, as I believe I have already made clear enough. And now you see what such a call at 4:40 AM to me from someone I no longer have any association with, other than my showing , and how that reflects upon himself, Mr. Rob Tidy as to exhibiting poor choices of how he runs himself, and poor character, as it reflects upon himself, and his nature and reputation and name. But now this newer episode serves only to further reinforce that by another added poor choice and step on his part. Mr. Rob Tidy has made the choice (and taken the step) to try to intimidate me because I have published my criticisms of him and his 434u website. I can publish such criticisms as I expressed that what I had stated was my viewpoint based upon my experiences with him, and that I related my experiences with himself, Rob Tidy (and his 434u.com website), truthfully. Where what I have stated was a matter of opinion, categorically, that applies as well. And any person truthfully relating their experiences or voicing their impression about anything that is a matter of opinion is actually quite alright. Also truthfully relating events and situations about any person, or in whatever way in your experience, also is quite alright. But now I can also publish my experience of him having called me on the phone at 4:40 AM my time to harass and intimidate me. How could such a phone call be construed with any other meaning or signifcance? It can’t! Perhaps other 434u members can find my published criticisms of how he has run himself and his website 434u.com. Perhaps many of those previous members are able to take my advice to heart and indeed now think for themselves on whether they feel alright about if they want to trust Mr. Rob Tidy and being involved in his 434u website anymore. I hope they do wake up to his ways. If they do so, it will be because of how Mr. Rob Tidy does run himself and his website. Not because of what I have written about Rob Tidy and 434u. I have told people to think for themselves and decide for themselves. Perhaps former people he was expecting to make use of, for and with, 434u, such as (previous member levels) “Co-Founders”, “Founders”, and maybe even a few “Executives”, have now made it their choice to no longer be a part of 434u. Perhaps some individuals of significance or value to Mr. Rob Tidy in connection to his 434u website have made it their decision to part ways with Mr. Rob Tidy and depart 434u and any affiliation with his website 434u.com. If they have done so, good for them for waking up to how Mr. Rob Tidy runs himself, and his ventures, including the website 434u. But if any such people who were at 434u have made that to be their choice, to no longer be a part of 434u, it was their choice to do so, as I specifically and repeatedly advised in my published criticism of Mr. Rob Tidy and his secure social networking website 434u.com for anyone reading it, that they think for themselves and decide for themselves. Mr. Rob Tidy I suggest you take a look in the mirror and correct yourself as you have begun to get out of control, and that is really not so very good, now, is it? – Lawrence Connor
