A DMCA has no part of this and would not - unless that person began using the material without the others consent. Nothing to do at all with the potential cival matter at hand. - assuming worst case.
I think you miss read my post or maybe I wasn't clear I meant lawyer for the civil matter and DMCA if this person started using said content, sorry for the mis type but I did correct the post as best I could within the time frame allowed if you wanna read it again

well whoever it is isn't doing anything wrong really - other than letting you down by taking so long to get the site going. he's working on his own schedule and unfortunately for you the site you're doing with him doesn't seem to be top priority with him. i don't think it's nice what he's doing but it doesn't sound like there's anything shady going on.

when you say 'popular program/person' are you saying the program he runs is very successful? have you seen numbers? are the Alexa rankings high on his sites?
don't confuse GFY popularity/notoriety with success - they don't necessarily go together.

So with DMCA I'm assuming I have to get a lawyer and file some sort of suit?
If you have the originals the most practical solution in my opininon is cut your losses now worst thing is you may have to dish out for a new domain, and do the site yourself...

As far as DMCA that would be for future use if need be, for example if he/she where to start using your content without your consent...

This is GFY where all things are bullshit.

He may not be trying to screw you, but he's not being a good partner either. Just be glad he didn't get you for any money. Just learn how to do things yourself and you will be better off in the long run.

DWB 11-01-2008 09:45 PM
Sweetie, drop him right now.

The domain is a loss and if you have the originals, run with those and start over.

Check his sites often and if the content shows up on his sites, as I suspect it may, DMCA him, the hosting company he is with and the billing companies that process for the sites. The content will get removed.

Even if he is legit, he is fucking you around. Not even worth a fight, just get your shit and move on.

Oh... and out him.

Wise words. :2 cents:

Even if he weren't giving you the run-around or trying to ignore you (which IMO it appears he's doing both), there are a few things you can take from this:

1) Based on those ICQ logs, he has zero professionalism in the way he speaks to people.

2) There is no need to EVER transfer your domain to someone like this (unless it's part of the contracted agreement, so that you can't screw the program once the site is up and being promoted)

3) Cut your losses (I hope the domain wasn't premium) and just get someone else to get your site up. I know some guys I can refer you to if you need.

Oh and I agree with Sly; I never trust a guy who says "trust me" :1orglaugh

As others have said... cut loose while you can. Seven months to get a site going is not exactly timely. My guess is this is just the start of the problems, too. What happens when you're supposed to get paid and you get the runaround?

I might be able to help you if you're interested. ICQ me: 331797412

No word today... get things worked out?

Iron Fist 11-02-2008 09:13 PM
Wow transferring the domain was the single most idiotic thing I've heard so far. I have a friend as well, whos starting a mainstream site, i laid out the terms, but made it clear that *HE* registers the domains and pays for the reg fees, I could care less who he does that through, but the ONLY thing i would need is for him to point the name servers on the domain to my hosting provider, he fully retains control of the domain, and I made it clear that ABSOLUTELY NO ONE EVER except him should retain control of the domain.

Whoever this guy is, if he has half a brain, he'd be long gone and registered the domain for 5 years and wait you out. The only saving grace you MIGHT have is if the registration information is incorrect, you might be able to sue him for it if you can prove trademarks.

It gets sticky from here... but your clearly in a shitty position.

He's not just slow or lazy, he's lying to you (as already said, you can't get approval on a members-area that's barely there/written with Latin placeholders) and taking advantage of you with this 20% bullshit, etc.

And you asked for it.

It seriously blows my mind how many girls/women just hand all of their shit over to strangers on a silver platter, sign over their domains, and let their lazy ass web"masters" take way more than their fair share of the money, of which there usually is very little since no one involved knows what they're doing.

Depressing. Seriously depressing. Is there no happy medium between the chicks who work for pennies and sign everything over to their pimps and the chicks who want millions for flashing their titties and don't think their sponsors, webmasters, etc. deserve a lick of the credit?

Life out of balance . . .

jakethedog 11-02-2008 09:38 PM
VC .. if this goes on any longer contact me .. we can have a site up ..approved/processing and part of our aff program ...along with 50% net in 3 months approx ..

DWB 11-03-2008 04:52 AM
I know this was taken care of now, but I would still have him transfer the domain back to you and I would ask for 50% of the site money.

I'd also put a time line on him to have you up and running or you will void the deal and out him.

Any other deal, I'd walk.

XX_RydeR 11-03-2008 05:18 AM
So what ended up happening?

Nah, can't be... The OP said the webmaster in question had a good reputation on here. The only reputation AlienQ has on here is that of a delusional idiot talking out of his ass on any issue that gets discussed, most of the time with zero relation to reality. That and he sucks at design, remember the OP said the site "looked good".
