Cindy, we're talking here about a lawsuit. I presume you understand how lawsuits work. Now, please, explain how the prosecution could make a case around what you are saying. If you can't, no big deal, just say so. - Jeff

Cindy, the definition of fraud does not support your claim. You should look at some legal resources to understand the definition before accusing Jeff and the others of it. There are several requirements which must be met in order to prove fraud, and unless you know what they are (and you've already demonstrated that you don't), you should either ask for the facts, or obtain them in some other fashion. Oh wait, I see—you were just in "I Hate Janice And Her Friends" mode, as is so often seen on so many other threads, so no understanding of the issues involved is actually necessary. It only gets in the way. Nevermind then—carry on.

What is it you're not getting here, Cindy? It's extremely simple. Wireless and others have explained the business of the BW contract with admirable clarity.

Miss Cindy, I truly believe that you went too far and that you are getting a taste of Karma. Someone once tried to force the word of Karma into my life the only thing it proves is that its a simple persons way of thinking to justify their actions. Its a bullsht way of thinking. It allows the follower of Karma to get away with things and then use, the terms of " I'd never do that, Karma would make me pay 3 fold. " Your use of Karma is just your way of saying that whatever bullsht excuse you make for your actions are justified in the actions you take? No, karma is just that, ones own interpretation of their OWN truth and justification of the bad things they have done and project it on to others. Its a simple way of not living in reality, in other words seeing life through rose colored glasses. If Janice, Jeff and Bill had actually taken money for the Webnode.com situation, and if they had done something wrong, its NOT the KARMA bull that will get them its REALITY. And, in this case there is no case. I know, and so do others know about frivilous to fact. If having fun with people is a crime all comics who are offensive need to be put in jail. If asking questions is illegal then all investors are open to all sorts of lawsuits. As for your statements about Jeff and his SI badge, why would you take a jab at SI, they didn't sanction anything. Are you attacking everyone including SI because your views are overshadowed by others opions? A persons opinion is their own, be it the right one or the wrong one. High ground or low ground. I think this suit that Business Wire (TM) is absolutely a absurd. I know about absurd suits and I can tell you this one is BW's way of making a statement more than actually looking to collect some type of monitary gain from it. You and the righteous ways you want to projectg as karma need to be left for yourself. karma only exsist for people who do wrong and make excuses for it.
