        good question...

            is this hypothetical or is there a base to it?

            like... if I asked the question... Did alleged thief go on to be employed by or supply direct competition with said info?

            would you have more info? or just curioous?

              Hypothetically, this is not an email list. It's affi ids with DETAILED sales data.

                        IMO, the intellectual property, which in this case is the aff ID's and associated data belong to the company owning the site in which they signed up for. Any employee, former owner, parter , or otherwise, would be stealing if they knowingly took a copy of that information and used it for their own purposes. Pretty cut and dry.

                          However, I should add that if the intellectual property was collected BY the "employee, parter, etc." themselves as independent consultants while on contract with the "company" that the contact information (NOT sales data) could legally be retained by that independent consultant on the grounds that they are personal contacts and were gathered for that consultant's own business and shared with the "company" at the time of sale.

                          Again, IMO. Legally in a court there would have to be more information as to the circumstances, technique, and conditions of the gathering of that information.

                                We can play nice anytime you want. I've written our recent drama off as either miscommunication or drunkeness on someones part. I don't hate you, but I'm annoyed. Dunno wtf else to say man.

                                I'm asking a question in this thread and that's pretty much it. For now.

                                  You can write it off as such. Just know this in the end, Im honest and Im right.

                                  If I had an inkling of a doubt on my end I would never have even attempted to defame you.

                                  There are plenty of people here, some with bar raising companies that owe me well over that.

                                  it was never about the cash...


                                  Done


                                  about this.





                                  is this about your ole buddy or not?

                                  is this serious or are you attempting to bring out discrediting info upon another attempting to defame you? Or are you cleaning house where you are now?


                                  simple... im curious...

                                  Your questions are serious.

                                  See im keeping a poll on whats relative and whats chalked up drama...

                                  I have to know what to put in the report.

                                  I have a case of file folders here on GFY... you even have your own... right next to Juicy... Juicy's smells good... yours is just thick.

                                    well, I know we have had our member list jacked by 2 employees in the past, it sucks.. kind of the price you pay when you trust people... kind of why i dont trust anyone anymore in this business.

                                    personally I dont agre with taking data from one company to the next, I dont mix businesses together, it tends to end up fucking things up in the end.

                                    however, if someone from company a fucked you, and you want to get even, then take it and sell it to company b ;)

                                    thats exactly what i would do!!!

                                      Ray I think you are wrong on this one...Any info that a company collect from company A that it considers proprietary that company B distributes can be sued on.

                                      I know of numerous consultants and market research firms that have been sued and lost or settled over second and third party proprietary sales info

                                        np, it's a huge problem in this business. In any business actually. And it's hard to stop it from happening.

                                            personally I dont agre with taking data from one company to the next, I dont mix businesses together, it tends to end up fucking things up in the end.

                                            however, if someone from company a fucked you, and you want to get even, then take it and sell it to company b ;)

                                            thats exactly what i would do!!!
                                            And if I was company a I would sue your ass off just like Ron Levy did a few times

                                                  If I had an inkling of a doubt on my end I would never have even attempted to defame you.

                                                  There are plenty of people here, some with bar raising companies that owe me well over that.

                                                  it was never about the cash...


                                                  Done


                                                  about this.





                                                  is this about your ole buddy or not?

                                                  is this serious or are you attempting to bring out discrediting info upon another attempting to defame you? Or are you cleaning house where you are now?


                                                  simple... im curious...

                                                  Your questions are serious.

                                                  See im keeping a poll on whats relative and whats chalked up drama...

                                                  I have to know what to put in the report.

                                                  I have a case of file folders here on GFY... you even have your own... right next to Juicy... Juicy's smells good... yours is just thick.

                                                  I'm cleaning house in general. I'm sick to fucking DEATH of being lied to, lied about, used and trolled on a whim by people I've been NOTHING but loyal to simply so they can cover their own ass. The way I figure it; I'm not long for this mortal coil or this fucking cesspool of an industry anyway, so why not just clear the air so to speak?

                                                  I'm just getting started.

                                                              the way you worded implied we got sued.
                                                              choose your wordd better next time
