you don't have the e-mail because it doesn't exist. I wholesaled a product to your company. That in no way gives you permission to take my photos. Just that you did it speaks to your character.
your "best effort" with Sporeworks obviously fell short. you obviously didn't try too hard. the "simple mistake" excuse got old a long time ago. for there is still (lifted/stolen/copied) text from their site on yours. you were asked by them repeatedly to remove it and never did. it's still there.
If Workman wishes to post yet again, and tell you yet again to remove it, I'm sure he will. But I bet he's a bit sick of it by now. I don't blame him. All you have to do is look at their site and their pictures. It's obviously their words, and that's obviously his parsley patch spoken about, not yours.
why do people need to chase you down anyway? why can't you be a stand-up company like the rest here and come up with your own photo's and descriptions? it's your responsibility, not ours. again, it speaks to your character.
have fun writing your lies in your magazine. that's the issue where you'll be showing pictures of yourself right?

Mitch you did more than just wholesale a product to us, you were a respected and valued moderator on Shroomtalk my forums. And you let me use MANY things when you were in this position on Shroomtalk and I am sure this image was included otherwise I wouldn't use it. If I had the proof I would show it. Its not like we purposely snunk into your computer and STOLE your precious images lol. When you signed up at shroomtalk you agreed to the disclaimer stating that any content posted on Shroomtalk is now usable by Shroomtalk. ( spores101.com is not shroomtalk thus me removing your images) the point i am trying to make is we did not STEAL anything... At some time during your membership at my forum I am sure you would not have cared one bit spores101.com used your image, only since our recent fallout you have been trying to make us look bad and this was a perfect opportunity for you to twist reality into your perspective. Just like the issue that caused us to FIRE You from being a wholesaler for mushbox.com
You have just today made it clear that the use of this image is making you angry so I removed it...
Regarding the magazine, I would appreciate it if you would wait until its published and you can read it before you start calling it lies. I saved all our emails and PM's so I will be publishing EVERYTHING.
Everything else your whining about has nothing to do with you and is none of your business, I made it clear we will fix anything we have that is incorrect, but when its coming from you its not considered a valid source as you clearly have your own personal issues with us.
To remove something thats invalid we need confirmation from the owner to verify, I don't understand why thats so hard to understand.

i would say that it is about time to lock this thread. It is getting out of hand, and no new points are being made. I am sure that spores101 customers will continue their support, and the people that don't like the business will not support spores101. To each his/her own.

Given its wrong to be stealing photo's and whatnot but, if it was your strain that you were selling to them wouldn't it make a whole lot of sense to show the customers a picture of the actual mushroom strain they are going to be studying.
Spores101.com Is a great vendor, I mean I could care less where the pics are coming from, although yeah thats shitty they took your pic. And they are right, its really not cool to be doing this publicly, it could be construed as slander, as you have no proof of your claims. You can say they don't either but it goes both ways.

agreed..
All we can do is try and fix the issues at hand and strive to avoid this kind of situation in the future.
The only way to do that is to spend the time to create our own content and that is what we are doing, hence the new website and images... "almost" ALL Of the content on the new site is ours so I sincerly apologize for any discrepencies or issues with text and images that are not ours, we did not intent to offend anyone.
I also really doubt this will be the last time we see posts from Mitch trying to badmouth spores101 and mushbox, it is really to bad that he is allowed to continue this slanderous activity here without first making an attempt to contact us privately, We spend THOUSANDS of dollars to be a vendor here and the moderators ( in my opinion ) should stop this sort of behavior especially when there is no hard evidence to back his claims. If it was a newb member or maybe someone who was not friends with the moderators I am absolutley positive this slander would not be permitted.
If we were not sincere about this I wouldn't be posting here to defend our reputation, don't you think we would be long gone by now if we were actually out to scam anyone?

This thread has been closed.
Reason: I think enough has been said here. I for one do not want to spend any more time than is needed arguing over an issue that doesn't appear to have a resolution in sight. This thread is now closed.
