I do think the designer perhaps should of thought this out a tiny bit better, than to just post it all here in the open. No, not because he is not owed or anything like that. Just because we all do know how this board often works. David versus Goliath rarely ends out the same around here if you catch my drift and it is rare when it does.
He may have been getting fed up. He may be needing the money and can not wait any longer. Just as a general tactic though I feel he performed the wrong maneuver. He could of had much better results/luck with say a GFY warning shot. We all have seen them used and in the end nobody losses face unless it goes to round two.
I have never been one to run here with problems. I avoid drama like the fucking plaque. Once long ago I did the very same shit two times on here. Both times I got my ass handed to me, not because I was wrong but because who I accused was "stand up", "top notch", "bro's", whatever. Hell I never even got paid on one of them and just had to pretty much drop it.
I know now I could probably rip apart someone less known then me today. I would be seen more as the person beyond attack compared to when I first tried my hand at the high school board rules. Problem is still there though and those stupid fucking rules will often cost you more than what you are owed.

way too much thought process there and over complicating things.
He provided a service for an agreed upon price.
They were late paying the bill.
He inquired and was told a couple more days.
He inquired again and was told a couple more days.
He inquired again and was told a couple more days.
He inquired again and was told a couple more days.
He inquired again and was told a couple more days.
30 days later he asks publicly "Hey can I get paid".
Fuck all the noise, idiots, board rules, standup guys and all that other bullshit.
I think it is good to find out who pays "6 months late" who doesn't pay at all (scams people) and who pay on time. <- finding out who falls into those categories is one of the few things that this message board is good for. It's good for the people reading to see how different companies around here handle their business and its typically good for the person who is making the post, because of instead of having to give up a % to a collection agency, GFY doesn't ask for a % when you get paid from making a post on here about someone oweing you money.
