We tried to do this the easy way first... but some people think they are entitled to abuse our trademarks and copyrights. That is when we have to play hardball...

Unfortunately yes... quite a shame... but the good news is that all those fine Ricks dancers want to make porn...

We always try to do things the nice way first (read that: inexpensive, sensible by talking it out first and offering a mutually beneficial alternative) but some people are arrogant pissants and just think they are entitled to screw with us.

I have been wanting to do biz with you for a while btw but apparently Ira Rothkin has told you to avoid us which is really unfortunate.

I hope one day that will change and you and everyone else whose blacklist we are on realizes that we just a bunch of decent hardworking chaps with no axe to grind.

I worked on trying to find a fair resolution but when my efforts were clearly rebuked then we turned it over to one of our attorneys. It was less costly than what Chris South wanted to charge us for the domain but more than we should have had to pay in a perfect world.

Oh well... the cost of protecting our trademark is just a cost of doing biz any way you slice it.
