The whole thing was an unfortunate event for everyone involved.
AlienQ was the top poster at the time the contest ended and never blamed me for what happened, until recently. He?s been all on my shit lately. I?ve offered to settle with him for 2000 dollars and he told me he wouldn?t even take 10,000 dollars now. He ?wants to see me go down?.
He?s entirely unreasonable and I?m sure you?ll see him hating on me in every thread from now on. Personally, I?d like to send him cash, bring him out to a trade show and get drunk and laugh about what has happened.
I need the wisdom of this board to show me the way. He wants to go to war. He just doesn?t understand.

I remember the thread you speak of. AlienQ must have spent about 20 hours posting in it. If you look at the thread, you'll see he was warned by about 5 - 10 different people that he was not going to get paid and to stop posting. He chose not to listen to anyone. He is taking that thread way too seriously, and I'm surprised you're even spending time trying to resolve things with him.
Rick, you're a business man, considered successful by many. I imagine you already know that no matter what you do, you're going to have enemies, or people that are jealous of your accomplishments. Do not waste your time trying to resolve issues with them. Just make sure that all of your business and actions are within legal guidelines and continue doing what you do. Life is too short to worry about haters.
