This is a funny post from the Acacia message board on Yahoo:

F'd up company w/bad patent
by: actgscam 10/27/03 04:46 am
Msg: 23465 of 23548

I wrote these assholes and asked if my situation fell under their patent. Naturally they said yes.

The funny thing was, I told them $1500 was more than I was going to pay. Now they are hounding me daily (Rob Berman) to make an offer!!!! I've got them down to $400 a year. It still doesn't interest me though. I don't make that much off video. I'd just as soon video went away. It costs to damn much to host video already. Once my main competitors dump video, it will be a better world. Meanwhile, I just mailed a check to IMPA for $300.00

If you really want to get this over with, tell them you will got $300 a year and won't sign their silly ass contract. Demand a simple 1 year receipt with no terms. Under no circumstances sign their standard agreement. It is a full on scam.

Accacia's smelling like manure more and more every day.

Willing to take anything they can to get it done without a fight. A perfect example that Acacia is just full of shit trying to extort money any way they can.

I asked my attorney last Friday if I should call them or if he was going to contact them and he laughed and said, "Now why in the hell would we want to call them up and confirm for them that there is definitely someone on the mailbox end of that letter they sent you??"

Oh, and they called me a "Mr.", too.

Bastards.
