Dude, you have got to be joking. I think it is quite the reverse of what you claim.

Be happy that you have your money and an apology and get back to life and business in general. This sort of thing happens daily... an employee screws up or knows they are leaving and just don't do what they should be doing on deals or whatever and people want to point the finger??

Why does SOMEOne have to be the culprit when all they are doing is trying to clean up a deal that went South from a now EX employee?! It sux but guess what?! Welcome to the Business World. Get used to it.

If that was the case they should have done the original deal dont you think? not like it was all that much :glugglug

Funny how the issues that were brought up in this thread were caused by notjoe himself.

He was stealing ALL of the names from our naughty mail list and selling them to other people. It made it impossible for us to deliver the clicks that we had sold people and so we re-funded the money they had paid and did what we could to make it up to them.

AHA........... Now the two threads came full circle !

Interesting thread indeed. I've dealt with python for years on the affliliate side and things have always been on the up and up.

A contract is a contract is a contract.

Even in our decadent age a verbal agreement is still a contract. It appears from the thread that there is no dispute whatsoever about what was initially agreed to. That's a contract.

It's been pointed out that some contracts cannot be fufilled. That's true when what was agreed to can no longer be provided. That's not the case in this situation. There's still traffic.

I'm reminded of Martha Stewart's stupidity with her insider trading. She wanted to make $200k and look what making that 200k has cost her. Last I heard her company had lost 600 million in stock valuation.

In this case, Python broke a deal because it wanted to make more money. How much, though, is this broken deal going to cost python? A lot of people read the board and word spreads. And bad words spread faster and further

Hey dumbass, now you're being sladnerous considering there was never anything mentioned about me sellingi the lists to anyone on the court documents.

Python just wanted to make back some of the $1 Million they spent on naughty, just ask the majority of the people who worked at python.

He was treated very poorly and unjust.

I am still waiting on pythons rebutal.

Not with just people wanting to buy traffic but with webmasters larger and small. I hate it when the people at the Top blame some piss assed sales person, when they hired that sales person and told them what could and could not be done. And for the sales person not giving a shit that this person was sending 50 sign ups a day really says a lot about the instructions given...

You guys are missing the point here... It isnt the sales people making these choices it is people like Chad Maldune (spelled wrong) and DVP and Aly making these choices, which is their management team.

Bobo 10-16-2002 05:50 PM

Cool. A vintage thread about somebody getting cornholed.

dailyduke 10-16-2002 05:59 PM

Sounds to me like Policy changes
doesnt it happen, you are selling something, the owner/manager/whomever decides they can make more $$$ when it appears what is being done is profitable. Jack the price up.

To Python's credit, I am sure Naughty Mail had good solid deals as well that were always fulfilled.

Just too bad their PR is bad.

chrism 10-17-2002 02:06 AM

This was settled a long time ago, no need to re-visit it! :)

chrism 10-17-2002 02:07 AM

Mind you, I still need gay traffic if anyone has some to sell? :thumbsup

We stopped selling traffic along time ago.

As to the bad talk you mention..i assume you are talking about the argument i had on the board that you moderate?

No arguments bro... just a discussion... I don't agree with implying beasty any more than I do pedo... IMO, it's bad business ethics...

Nothing personal... I won't support it... I won't go as far as banning all the submitters that use you as a sponsor such as I have done with MET, HA, Alpha, etc... but I won't allow your animal sites to be submitted as sponsors...

I signed the agreement and faxed it back and was told my traffic would start on 20th March. It never came

Aly, wtf are you trying to do. Your people make a bad contract and you decide you're not going to honor a bad deal? What kind of business school did you go to - or did you?

Shit, I just got taken to the cleaners on a deal I wasn't happy with, but I still honored it. I just won't make the same mistake a second time, and I don't have anywhere near the financing you guys have. I guess I should follow your lead and say "Sorry, I miscalculated my costs, you're out of luck". Yah, right! I agree with Charly, if you want to be a reputable business, you are happy with the "fair" deals you complete and you stand-by your bad ones!

BTW, I have purchased mailings from Python in the past, and never did break even with your lists.

I'll see you in Vegas, but I sure as hell won't be buying anything from you.

ElvisManson 10-17-2002 02:45 PM

Dude...look at how old this thread is.

We ended up making it up to chrism and as he says just a few posts ago it has long been put to rest.

This was brought up yesterday for a different reason.

You can see me or Aly at the shows anytime you want.

We are always willing to help people make money.

Sorry, but I won't be buying from you. This thread has proven to me that even a WRITTEN CONTRACT has no value to your company. The original terms should have been honored, no questions asked. Simple, isn't it?

:stoned

hitman699 10-17-2002 02:52 PM

I personally wouldn't do business with a company that announces they made a contract in public and that they wont fill
it. but oh their sorry about that.. They wanted to increase their profits silly.. Lousy business ethic.

just thought Id post this to keep the thread going... always nice for people to know the companies that screw ya
