Do you think NATS made libelous accusations or do you think Naked Rhino was stealing from the affiliates?

Thats the one good thing about court cases (one of the few good things
)is that everyone gets the facts. You can read the judgement and all of the circumstances involved with the case and in most instances there is a clear cut winner and loser (or guilty not guilty party).
I didn't get involved with the board drama when this broke a couple years back. I knew nothing about either party involved. I read back over the orginal posts that John made and it was par for the course of the typical John we have seen posting a lot over the last 6 months.
John seems to fly off the handle and make lots of emotional posts without thinking things through.
I think the whole NR / Nats situation caused a lot of existing and potential nats clients to realize exactly how much control the software owner has over your business. He could destroy your business if he wanted, pulling someone's license and hinting that they were shaving then locking them out of the affiliate stats area, making them spend a tremdious amount of time, money, and resources to move off of your system, in turn losing all of your affiliates over it.... well I would hope the post he made wasn't just purely emotional. I don't know if John realizes how much power has over people and their livelyhood or maybe he does and that is why he is the way he is.
One thing I woud like to point out... If someone was guilty of shaving, I don't think very many of them would fight for years and spend (i am assuming) 10K's of thousands of dollars in attorney's fees. If someone is shaddy or a scammer, 99 out of 100 times they get busted they go away, make a new name and try to come back up as someone else and hope no one will notice. So on that point alone I think it says a lot what NR is doing and has done. That vs the way John has handled things in the last 6 months or so and how cocky and arrogant he is, my money is that NR wasn't in the wrong and John fucked up and his ego and arrogance got the best of him and he destroyed another company because of it. (but those are just my opinions.) We will find out soon enough.
