normally I would be inclined to agree with you, but knowing HungryMan (he still designs for me, and I am very happy with his work for the record), and also having met vidvicious in Toronto at webmastersummit, I can say they are BOTH decent guys, but I also know there is some bad blood between them that really has no place on a message board (except for here of course!LMAO).
I have known HungryMan for 2½ years now. I have been to his house in Mississauga at 2:30am bribing him with beer and pizza because I need banners for the next day, and my guy is passed out drunk somewhere, and He has done them for me as I watch. Do I consider him a friend. Yes. Do I also think he has backed himself into a corner with a few of his actions. Yes again.
I have been reading this board alot longer than I have been posting, and what I see here is a bunch of people who call themselves businessmen, yet lack alot of self control that is so very crucial for success in business. Bill Gates gets ripped off more times than HungryMan eats TV dinners (sorry Hungry), but do you see Bill all over the newspapers throwing shit to the fan? no.
I own a camgirl site in Toronto, and 2 years ago released my partner. He was skimming from the business, and it cost me easy 6 figures before it was over. You will not read about it on any board, and only a select few people in the industry knew it was even happening, and trust me it got plenty dirty.
Im sure ther is a moralistic story here somewhere, but I am too tired to look for it. Bottom line is: Hungry, pay vidvicious and wash your hands clean bro, and vidvicious, you need to chill. This kind of attention is not the kind of attention you need. Settel this off the boards, and hell you are self-employed are you not? Write it off if need be. How you handle yourself businesswise, weighs heavily on your character. I think both parties here need to realize that.
