They did change the Williams jersey item description after contacting me. No lawyer needed and no retraction from my stance. They did a good job on that one certainly.

Sending a BS cease and desist warning, threatening to break someone financially in a time consuming fruitless lawsuit whether they are right or wrong, but just for offering an opinion is a sad business practice.

It's unfortunate that this has become a commonplace situation. It seems if I was sitting on the bench, I would clearly voice some serious disdain to the party that brought this to my court.

Commonsense can more often than not clarify slanderous or defaming statements from opinion.

Since everyone is spouting off about cease and desist letters, did anyone actually get one??

What surprises me is that, while Ken and team may not be an advertiser on here any more, he still is a member and almost always chimes in on threads where his items are challenged by the board.....

And apparently he's trying to control Net54 the same way he does GUU.

That site was destroyed the minute when CC chose to take the path he took. He personally responsible for it becoming CUU. Is he even interested in the hobby besides collecting Benjies?

It's been a while since I've been on that site but out of curiosity I took a look today. That site has gone absolute bottom barrel from what it was pre 2013 or even 6 months ago. It use to have "todays post" fill almost the whole page and it currently only has 6 current posts with the day almost over-Pathetic. The days of Kingjammy is nothing but GUU nostalgia now. In those days there was some real interesting reads and informative stuff that could help new collectors and old. There were wide ranging topics of all the 4 major sports including minor sports. There were many old time collectors from the SCD era that shared they're knowledge with the GU community. Truly golden era of days gone by. Today its become the turdish era of free advertisement hidden in the mask of an open forum. Since the day Chrissie shook that hand the site has turned into government controlled censored site. It slowly evolved from what it was to now in its present state with censorship, deletions, redactions, threats of banishment, banishment, force fed advertisement masked as posts, plants, silly rules that are meant to protect the one but not the whole (but yet one member has the right to critique AHs) and the mass exodus of old timer members whether by force or by disgust. A big thunderous hand for Chrisie

Hey Greg,

He used to come on here and reply. Once he was identified as a shill bidder on the Mastro list, he vanished. Since that time there have been other threads where people have identified other controversies and he has not replied but privately would send emails lobbying for people to let certain threads die.

Take care,
Greg

By the way Phil316 is no improvement from the Don West days either bro and I'm quite sure Russek would love to run an IP address checker on that Phil316 account and then bump into you at a National to discuss the findings.
Ron, There is a GUU house rule on that site where you cannot go blatantly ramble on and blast a AH, and yet Phillip here was given free reign to do so.
