why the 4 year wait?

That seems to be the case, if I had to guess. I've never heard any of these shenanigans prior to this. Very fishy, especially in light of all of the praise at the time.

He cried poor at the time, and cried it again at every interval since. I've been promised that he'd "catch up" for years now. It was more of an off-handed jab than anything else, but since Mark chose to melt down over it, it turned into something more serious.

Sadly, the only time it became a "dispute" is when I actually tried to get paid.

Edgeprod 6:13 PM Back then, you told me it'd take a few months. After a few years, and 6-month-interval reminders, you haven't so much as farted a quarter in my direction. Does it shock you thank I'd want to eventually be paid?

Mark -GTS (DH) 6:13 PM you're not getting paid now
Mark -GTS (DH) 6:14 PM i can tell you that with 100% certainty

Lol, with that statement Mark acknowledges that he does indeed owe you. Of course he then resorts to the old gfy stupid logic of, "Well, I was going to pay you, but since you called me out on the boards and embarrassed me, I no longer feel I should have to pay you."

Interesting how there seems to be a long line of people who have done work for Mark or been directly employed by him who leave very disgruntled usually with payout issues. If it was just 1 then I could see it being a misunderstanding, but after a half a dozen it becomes quite clear how Mark operates and what type of person he is.

Pretty much how he seems to operate. Maybe this topic DOES need its own thread with appropriate title after all.

As much wood as a woodchuck can afford after being cheated out of his paycheck.

I think it does need its own thread, Mark got off too easy in this one as he disappeared and hoped this thread would also.

Sounds like a plan, then. I'll get all of the supporting materials together, too.

Still gathering a couple more things. I just moved to FL, so everying is boxed up.

Don't even have the bathroom TVs installed yet.

I think you missed the entire point of my post, though ... it's not about what's owed, it's about what you can collect. Remember, too: even if you win in court, you still have to then go to the mats to collect the money.

A producer in California was talking to me about a famous starlet and her husband that owed him around $60k. He said he wasn't sure if he'd take them to court because in order to get that he'd have to spend most likely $30k and then all the tangible crap that goes along with that.

Bingo. If $38k is going to make or break you, then you should re-examine your life.
