Say simon, why does your nickname "ninavain" read as banned?
Simon?

Si..

..mon?

Surprise, surprise. Wonder why someone was attacking your business last yr? Funny i have been in business for over a decade and no one has ever fucked with my business, punk.

Well, i have been attacked over and over by some people (mostly a crew of 3-4 people that didnt like me speaking up because they think they are kings of the industry).

Some people just dont like it when you are being honest, they rather have themselfs surrounded by people who tell them how good they are.

Not saying thats you, not saying thats happening to barefootsies, just throwing in another possibility.

Maybe you're taking so much heat because you rip people off!

You and me had an agreement on a celebrity site over at DP. You didn't live up to your end of the deal which was providing the domain name, generating $1500 in revenue from the site in 6 months by teaching me where to find photos get traffic and content updated on my site for free for 6 months etc. I only got 2 1/2 months of updates not 6 months. The admin CMS doesn't even function correct. And when I asked for a refund of the $1500 originally paid you said you wanted all original content back which I agreed to give you. Which was your admim CMS and the database of pictures. Then you complained and wanted the site graphics that I paid for and the domain. I told you that you could have the graphics that cost me $400 or $450 since that was in the agreement. However, you were not getting the domain name that I paid $300 or $500 for as it wasn't part of the agreement. You then said you had to talk too your partners about this which I was never told about and still think is BS.

You were only selling 5 of these sites and I could never see the other 4 that supposedly sold. I wonder why?

It's fairly simple you lied and didn't honor the agreement. When I brought points up that you denied I forwarded the original e-mails to prove my point then that's when you spun around and said you were done with me. Not my fault you lied and because you didn't like the fact that I could prove it you wouldn't give me back my $1500. I have around $3k in the site so I would still be out, but a deal is supposed to be a deal. You are not honest by any means.

dude you should start your own thread with this..people might read it more than bumping this old ass thread

Especially one about someone else.

Someone is going to ask for proof. I believe there is a rule around here about calling some one a scammer.

Correct.

Sorry champ. It sounds like revisionist history.

1. You were offered a domain for free, you OPTED to buy one YOU wanted.
2. You were provided a design for the site, you did not like it, you OPTED to pay for a 2nd.
3. You would disappear for long stretches when the designer was trying to complete work.
4. You wanted me to provide you a brand new video CMS for free, I refused.
5. Your server stopped the CRON on your end that pulled new updates. I do not control that.
6. I actually helped you long after the 6 month agreement term.
7. You were offered a refund, you refused. Once more, a choice you made.

That was despite the delays and you vanished over and again during this project. Or not getting back to the coder and designer on their requests. You show up something like three months later ranting and raving because I was running some promotion at that time for (whatever) cheaper than you had paid.

Only then did you want a refund and making all of these other wild allegations. The emails back and forth easily show this time line and the original beef behind your complaints and threats. Once I CC'd your threats and claims to the others involved, you really went ballistic. I told you that they had a right to see your allegations, as you were making threats and claims.

Now, all of this said, I still said I would have refund your $1500.00 IF you turned over the complete site. You refused. You responded with all kinds of threats of small claims and so forth. At that point you made your decision, and were saying you were going to sue. So I left you to it. I have not heard from you since September 2010.

Additionally, you were given more help and assistance far beyond the originally part of the deal. Not only on all of the design revision work for this site, but your gambling design work as well. You made the choice to pay for extra design work (when one was provided for free), and your own domain (despite one provided for free). You would disappear or take long intervals in between design revisions slowing down your project. Despite all of your insane rantings, threats, and bullshit about being mad of a lower priced offer more than a year later from your original purchase....

You were offered a refund on the original $1500.00 and you just had to turn over the site you were claiming was of no use to you. So there was no reason to keep the design and domain now was there? You refused that offer as well.

Don't go crying about it another 6 months later. You made your choice. Much like Simon.
:2 cents:

everyone with these "teaching" programs are full of shit, dont buy into that crap.

Barefootsies is a shady fuck. Sorry that he fucked you over like it seems that he did.

Of course he will spin it in his favor, but everyone here knew that his package deals with support were suspect and something like this would happen.

The dude has shit all over this board with no regards, sold content he had no rights to be selling, and no he comes up with a litany of excuses just so he can take your money and run.

He's is the eipitome of the word douchebag.
