Class Action Suit: Archive Cash and Rehab Dollars
 

I know a lot of people are owed money by SOBV, and I was wondering how many webmasters want to get together and file a joint lawsuit. I've never had to do this before, so I don't really know how the process even works. Theses companies owe me a decent amount of money, and that aside, It's the way these companies are handling this situation that makes me want to do this. Realistically, I don't think we will ever get paid, but maybe this will be a thorn in their side.

If any of you have any experiences with this sort of thing, I'd love to hear any feedback. Also, if anyone knows an attorney that would work well with this, please let me know.

So if you a webmaster interested in going in with me on this, please contact me.

Thanks.

He is already very familiar with SOBV.

While I can't disagree with the recommendation, what were his prior dealings with SOBV?

Interesting turn of events.

trademark or copyright. I think from Broke Street Boys

Unless you are owed a serious amount of money (and I don't mean $1000) it probably won't be worth it. Even if there is a judgment in your favor and their assets could be located and seized (highly unlikely based on everything I've been reading about them), you'll end up with a very, very small percent of what you were owed. The attorney wins big, you end up with lunch money.

This is an unfortunate situation.

Are they offshore? if so it's damn near impossible to collect.

good luck with that. $$$$ for lawyers.

It's not hard to get domains shut down.

count me in

located in the states:

people are owed way more than a grand. hundreds if not more.

Didn't bodog lose their domains as payment for a lawsuit? That could be decent compensation...

bump :disgust

Depending on the TOS you could end up A LOT worse off than that. I've sen many TOS's that limit your dealings to " the program " or " the domain " of the program and additionally limit any suit to a pre-defined amount. Some go so far as to say you are "entitled" to nothing or they can change the payout's at any time etc etc etc ...

Went down this road before ( in mainstream ) and seriously wish I had not.

I just added it up, they owe me 15k.

I see JJ on ICQ all the fucking time. I wish they'd at least have enough tact to give us some reassurances.

Do you think the potential payout is in the millions? How deep are the pockets of the defendant? Is there a common set of facts or is each tort peculiar to each plaintiff?

Just asking some basic questions. Litigation isn't cheap.

We're owed around 8k over here. I'll be back later, and I'll hit you up KingpinMedia

Not basic.... vital to a class being certified. Depending on the jurisdiction, it is sometimes impossible to get a class certified by the court based on what $5 Submission stated... is there a common set of facts or is each tort peculiar to each plaintiff ?

And its actually a detailed analysis the court goes through to determine the answer to this basic question.

Most sensible post in the thread.

It always hurts to lose money, but when you throw a lot more money at trying to get back that lost money, it always hurts more.

Send some goons. You have goons right? What kind of porn king doesn't have goons?

Yes. Send someone to break their legs. I'm sure you can hire a crackhead in this industry willing to do it for pennies. :)

If someone sends me a video of them breaking their arms and legs, I wouldn't mind spending $500 on a copy.

Add $19,900.75 that they own me.

Perhaps part of it for some is just to send a message to other sponsors that affiliates will not silently roll over if you screw them. I'd think even for some if all they could do is seize their domain names this would bring a lot of satisfaction.

someone just got killed around here over a 20 dollar drug deal. it happens.

Just updating my avatar

You don't need to file a class action; you can have multiple Plaintiffs.

Rehab owe us 17k

none of you pussies are gonna do shit but roll over and take it. thats why every program here that has closed, just fucked you all. why? because they know not a thing will happen. and the same thing will happen this time too. NOTHING!

I wonder if it is legally possible to get their merchant account frozen up or something.

the LAST attorney I'd hire to litigate a business suit would be an adult attorney... fugggg that.

where? on iq69?

You ever get paid?

No one got paid. and no one will. fucking scammers.

Damn, they owe some of you a lot of money. They only owe me $160, whatever, I'm not going to waste my time pursuing that.

tos isn't the same as a legal agreement. if they added , "by signing up you agree to sell us your house for $1 and to recieve 100% of your income for life "

they couldn't just take your house and all your paychecks for the rest of your life.

every amusement park in america has a tos that reads something like " we cannot be held responsible for injury etc etc " , yet loads of them have been sued and were eventually held responsible for an injury

What's your ICQ? Or any method of contact.

Good luck I guess...
