Draging Yakface to court won't do anything to hold him accountable either though.

It's not up to Dakka to hold him accountable. We're not the internet police. The sole objective of these threads was to make people aware of what was going on.

Update: I'm currently in contact with Resin Forge as they work to pay off Daniel Mandelbaum's outstanding debt to me and they expect to have this accomplished by 5/24/13.

Wonder what made them change their mind.

But good on you Alph getting your money sorted back finally!

Excellent news Alph!

Maybe he has some legit business partners (that for some reason don't want to come forward).

Maybe he realizes that since we know his real name and location, it became a lot harder to hide.

Maybe there has been some sort of life changing event.

Maybe the 24th will come and everything will be the same.

Maybe we will be pleasantly surprised.

Well, we're not quite there yet, but hopefully we will be in a little over a week.

If this turns into the same thing as the RSO thread, with you getting strung along again...it'll be quite depressing (not least for you).

I hope it'll work out, I really do.

Well, if you're going to waste an incredible amount of time and money in court, then at least it should be a battle worth fighting.

In this particular case, I really have nothing to gain at all.

Best case scenario is really that I win the case, the original thread gets to stay up and maybe the Plaintiffs have to pay for my legal fees.

Worst case scenario is that I get slapped with a giant $ penalty for defamation and perhaps even have to shut down Dakka.

Why would I even consider that when the C&D sent proves the whole point of the original thread in the first place (that Daniel Mandelbaum is an owner of Resin Forge)?

Trying to prove that Resin Forge was somehow involved with the Britcons.com hacking is never going to happen as there isn't any definitive proof that can be found (certainly not by me).

So this is not the fight that needs to happen. If someone feels they were ripped off then they need to be the ones to step up (if they want) and try to get justice. There is nothing for me to get justice about...only the chance for me to lose things.

Did you get in touch with them via phone or email.

If it was phone... do you know if it was Mandelbonder you spoke with? I know you dealt with him in the apst, but I didn't know if you ever spoke to him via the telephone.

I hope this gets sorted out for you

That's great news Alpharius, I hope you receive the money you are owed, but I have to wonder if other people owed money are also being payed back.

Here's to hoping for the best outcome possible!
Call me a skeptic, but I'll believe it when I see you type that you have been successful. Dealing with Mandelbaum inc. will do that to you.

Fingers crossed for you Alph

Alph - guess they're going to pay you once they've cleared the HH weekender sales....

I honestly wish you the best with this.

Just to confirm - the photos on RF's Facebook page ARE NOT HIS.

They are a Warseer Member's who isnt afilliated to RF in any way.

Also - nobody by the name of Mandelbraum / Bonder is booked in... (of course he could be using an alias).

So that kind answers the question of whether Mandelbonder's tehre or not doesnt it?

So is he trying to pass the pictures off as his without going to the weekender?

All I can say for certain is this:
The photos on his FB page are from various sources - Loken and Binky being two from Warseer.
Nobody by the names of Daniel Mandelbraum or Daniel / David Bonder are booked into the weekender.
Nobody claiming to be affiliated with RF are there.
A couple of attendees have offered to sell him THEIR Fulgrims.

hmmm.... shocking...

Oh, it seems I touched a nerve:
**Obvious Troll States Obvious!!** ** FOR A SECOND TIME TO MR. 'ART'**

*We are gathering the best pics and note as the event is happening here at the HQ. Where we can, we make note on where the info came from. Where the info is freekly spread across the web, we can not. Anything we post that is ours will have the RF ink stamp in the corner*

So there you go, that's me told.

Though I do notice that NOT ONE picture so far has this 'RF ink stamp' on it!

Definitely a good time to pull a U turn with very expensive models. Definitely. Nobody will notice.

Ok. I could be doing him a disservice.

So here we go:

I'm meeting a bunch of people in the bar later (after Dr Who) as I only live down the road from Nottingham (27 minutes in the car).

I'll be wearing an Art Is Resistance NiN shirt, and Oakland Raiders cap.

Come find me - prove me wrong, so the world that everyone has picked on poor little Mandelbonder.

I'll even apologise for doubting you!

No. Monitored that. While not explicitly saying whose pictures and texts he used, he did not explicitly say they were his or his "team"'s.

Firstly well done on the NIN shirt.

Secondly, Chris 'I play Cryx' Kluwe just signed to the Raiders.

Thirdly, if there is a meeting, we'd really appreciate some pictures.

I think he means to prove that RSO is actually there.

DM said before that his partners would go, not him. So you'd have to meet the other two whose names are in the C&D

If you don't want your photos being used by him I suggest getting Google to pull them. See how he likes a bit of legal coming his way for a change.

Could also just issue a public statement by the person who took the photo objecting to their use by certain people. All possible

A) they're not my photos
B) whomever is there from RF - prove me wrong that ANYONE from RF (KIm or whatever their name is) is there and ill buy em a pint!
