Will donations be used in the Bauer/Vic case against PE or Vic's lawsuit against you? Or both?
Without a shred of realistic evidence you have besmirched and harmed sincere people attempting to make a living
Are you saying this is primarily a "slap suit"? That is, the purpose is not to win in court but to make the defendant rack up large legal expenses?Expect more of these lawsuits. For those people who have been unfairly maligned and put on these McCarthy type lists, it doesn't cost much to file a lawsuit, but it does to defend it. If the legal venue is out of state it is the defendant's responsibility to show up at the hearings, depositions and trials. If he does not, a default judgement will be directed by the courts. These judgements can be collected across state lines.
Several weeks ago, in response to an opinion I made that ran contrary to the majority viewpoint at AW, I was called a troll. Now comes ROBJ, who calmly and politely, expresses his opinion about Preditors and Editors, a viewpoint that is also contrary to the majority position here, and he too, gets jumped upon. The lack of tolerance for dissenting opinions at AW continues to be troubling.
Ah yes, shame on Dave for exposing a shady business. How dare he.
Thanks for the laugh exculp People never cease to amaze me. I wonder if you would be singing the same tune if you were the one swindled...
Self-serving? This isn't a salad bar. This is writers helping other writers.Dave, better build a big war chest. All of the people that you have maligned are going to destroy you and show you for the self serving individual that you are.
Hmmm, I noticed you didn't call them honest. I will agree that they could be sincere in their attempts to rip off writers in order to make a living.Without a shred of realistic evidence you have besmirched and harmed sincere people attempting to make a living. You have set your own personal criteria for maligning people and taken advantage of writers who are naive by misleading them.
Um, you seem to think I'm unwilling to face my accusers. Well, first they have to show that they actually have a case for the court to even accept it. Then they have to win. That's not likely since I've based my recommendations and opinions upon documentation.Expect more of these lawsuits.

What's malicious is what those others are doing to writers. In the meantime, stock up on ice cubes. Eventually, you'll need them when you reach your final destination.Shame on you Kuzminski for maliciously harming others and misleading naive authors into thinking that you are an authority on who is "bad" and who is "good". Your ego is bigger than your ability.

No Dave, you've set yourself up as judge and jury in some cases with knowing actual facts. You have damaged (honest) people with your blacklisting. Opinions emailed do not necessarily constitute facts.

The Assumption is that most people are honest until proven otherwise, not by innuendo or mob vote.

Opinions do not equate to fact.

There are a few unscrupulous people out there who only intend to enrich themselves at the expense of others
For the record, do you think he'll lose in court and the defendants given a judgment against him, or are you implying that those who disagree with him will try to make him "pay" in legal fees? If it's the latter, don't you think that says something about the plaintiffs?. . . it will cost you.
Not quite sure what your reference to "ice cubes" means, but I hope it isn't a threat.

Dig a little deeper. You might feel different if you were one of those unfairly maligned. Setting arbitrary standards, not necessarily realistic, usually skews the end result. Kind of like polling, it depends on the demographics polled to find the "correct" result.
Think for yourself. Do not allow other to make decisions for you. Set your own criteria for judgment.
