The Reality to The Drama
You know sometimes i am completely surprised by the pettyness and politics in this industry.
For over 2 weeks we have all been putting together this great idea for a webmaster reality show where people with some talent but no big name, could showcase what THEY can do. Juicy has been an avid supporter and part of the plan since DAY 1. Last night an announcement was made here and Juicy himself made a post saying how big it was going to be.
Then shortly after the announcement and post that he made referencing our event i recieved this.

Juicy D. Links (3:06 AM) :
Hey JizBiz , I have some bad news for ya. I really cannot be part of the fuckin fired site and such any longer , i would appreciate it you would remove my face and any association with me to the site at your earliest convenience.
jizbiz (1:49 PM) :
Why are you pulling out at the last minute Juicy, everything is inplace due to your willingness to do this initially. The graphics have all been done which was no small job and the designer needs paying for this, the text and the site graphics/banners all need to be redone now because you decide a couple hrs after release that you arent interested?

Juicy D. Links (2:11 PM) :
Unfortunately I cant involve myself in this site any longer
jizbiz (2:11 PM) :
Why would you pull out now when such time, effort and energy (almost 3 weeks) has gone into this, and you were 100% involved and behind it all, if you had concerns you should have said something before all this was even considered, let alone put to page. Do you have any idea of how this looks?
How unprofessional this looks, not just from your end but our end as well, due to you pulling out, we need a reason as to why you did this.
jizbiz (2:11 PM) :
Do we atleast get a reason?
Juicy D. Links (2:11 PM) :
As i said unfortunately i cant be part of it any longer my name cant be associated with this.
jizbiz (2:19 PM) :
I will pass on your remarks to my partners and associates.
Juicy D. Links (2:20 PM) :
no problem , just make sure we get this handled of promptly and in a professional fashion. Have a good weekend

I have no idea why Juicy has suddenly breeched our agreement but i can say that an OVER QUALIFIED replacement has been found. We were led on for weeks then 3 hrs after the announcement with no reason given, we are left holding the ball.
As i said above he has been replaced and the show will go on bigger then ever now. The designer (who is/has mailed the originals to juicy that I paid for) will be removing Juicy from the site as soon as he is online.
We will be making an official relaunch on Monday or Tuesday.
Asside from this i have been advised to limit my comments on this situation at this time.
The show must go on! :thumbsup
