I'll give up an approximate amount, based on a sophisticated statistical modeling donation amount program I wrote on a matchbook and installed in the left lobe of my brain.

It's between $10.00 and $10,000,000.00

Later, mikey

I agree. Although the amount may be sizable we should NOT tip our hat to the slimy lawyers who are working for the slimy business who has launched a slimy attack on our free speech rights.

I sincerely doubt that it's about principle to such an outfit -- it appears to be completely about greed, based on the history. Your implied threat of overwhelming financial resources simply does not match that history of the oft-renamed company. Perhaps you're too much an "insider" and have thus lost your own ability to comprehend and learn from history.

The only embarassments here are to the U.S. court system -- notorious for being slow to get things right -- and to those involved with Streetbeasts. The international response to this meritless attack is quite inspiring, not embarassing.

That's pretty funny...They have no principles. Also based on George's address I doubt he has 10 million either. Of course with punitive damages he may wind up moving to a trailer park in Orlando, which when they fold is where you'll be, I'm sure.

you, sir, are dreaming!!! what's about principle? if you guys had any principle you would be running a reputible business and giving your customers a good quality product, delivered on time and not have people paying for products you can't deliver. principle is NOT-NOT trying to browbeat people into silence because they give an honest opinion about you guys and your product. you guys are the very definition of shiesters.

Jon may send me to banned camp for calling you names, but he hasn't sent you to banned camp and stifled your free speech so i'm probably safe- .

now JON has principle, not only does he stand up for free speech, but he stands by his principles by not stifleing your free speech. you guys could learn a thing or two from him!!!

Jon, this doofis has angered me, i'll be sending my contribution to you in the next couple of days. thanks for the great sight that is hotrodders and all the great people i have come to respect who are members (and the one doofis who you let have his say- )

Not to worry. That's what he's here for. He just loves to act stupid and tick people off. It's part of Streetbeast's harassment program. I'm sure they do this every time some forum or individual for that matter stands up to them.

For now we are enjoying watching him make a fool of himself, although I think it comes naturally to him. It sure seems like he doesn't have to try very hard. Just about every time he types something he is showing the entire forum what kind of an idiot he is. One of these days he'll get tired of it or his boss at Streetbeast will tell him to quit because they can't afford to pay him anymore. Probably sometime next week.

He's a Streetbeast employee posting from home or a blackberry so his IP won't match the Streetbeast office computer system. Let him talk.... its entertaining. Most of the time I have to laugh at what he says and just say to myself... "What an idiot."

Once I get enough hours that I'm not bleeding money (living off savings at the moment, and 7 hours a week) I'm sending money in.

Insider, please contribute something useful to this community. Like, oh, at least start yet another thread titled "Chevy Sucks" and go on about how a round logo is more aerodynamic and therefore Fords are faster and Henry made them faster with the production line too. my comment: both companies have their good engines, and both have crappy engines. Otherwise, it's brand loyalty. end of comment.

A bunch of garbage like the above, minus my comment there to hopefully keep this on topic, is better for us as a community, and likely would show greater intelligence on your part, than the forum plaque you're trying to spread upon us. If you guys had kept your noses clean, you wouldn't be so looked down upon as toxic, anti-american scum.

Give me a break! Your posts indicate that you do.... and the fact that you're still here is solid evidence that the ONLY reason you're on this board is to antagonize, and harass the members.

You have made a ton of posts but look at your post count. All of 1. That means that you have NOTHING useful to add to this forum. You have only made one post in a technical forum and that one was total BS. Over time I believe we have made it abundantly clear that you're not welcome here. No one in their right mind would still be here if they didn't have an ulterior motive.... in other words we KNOW you are a Streetslime employee so why deny it.

O.K., if you do not work for Street Beast, jump off a bridge. That will prove you do not!
