Just read the latest Board Minutes and have a few corrections.
1. Dyebat will email GritsT to explain why the Vbulletin and Corporation payments are listed as assets. It was not a mistake.
2. The non-profit that some Staff intentionally delayed, that finally got pushed through when they created the July 18 incident, and most deserted the ship with PT telling Staff that I was keeping them out which is another lie....is a legal corporation. The paperwork to request tax-free status was never to be filed by me. I stay out of tax/financial stuff - other than helping set up and explain and train on the online process. Truus knows that as I spent over an hour explaining this and other stuff to her which is conveniently misrepresented.
There was no need to rush on the tax paperwork as there is a very long window in which to file - we had known it would likely be January before filing. 2010 would likely show a loss as the site was purchased for $8,000 with additional expenses of about $1,000 -and there was not going to be that much revenue in the part of 2010 that the site was owned by SBFII.
I advised on how to go about it and how best to approach it in order to pass the IRS requirements. FYI, gaining tax-free status typically takes a few months once you file.
3. "PT stated that the VodPod program lChris recommended is not
working and is, in fact, losing us money."
That is just a completely silly statement. I suggested it from the 3 possible alternatives to magnify - there are not many. Judy never adjusted the template (she said she and Dani would do this though I suggested that she outsource to a volunteer) to add any adsense or amazon or any monetization. So, with no way to earn money on this site - there is obviously no money being earned. Losing money? that's a stretch, even for PT.
4. "Outside investigator cannot find any evidence of wrongdoing, and if anything occurred the perpetrator has erased all traces."
The 'outside' investigator was a friend of PT's and was doing the investigation from her home, LOL. Never questioned anyone involved in the incident, never looked at the data. PT even managed to convince an IT Pro that there was something wrong in the upgrade process and that somehow data would be lost if it was 'fixed'. I never upgraded on the original site. Never touched it. No IT Pro would have upgraded on top of that site. No IT Pro would ever lose any data as they would have made backups and tested - as I did. It took the better part of 1 day to get the 750Megs of data to pass my tests before beginning the actual upgrade on a fresh install.
5. Just a personal observation about the finances. No paperwork was ever given to Dyebat for the $4000 that was paid to the previous owner by the Staff's representative, a member that requested anonymity. In fact, it took many months and many requests to get the Staff to provide the breakdown of their side of the transaction. Interesting, huh? There were delays on providing or sharing any information with Dyebat and/or myself from the beginning.
When I say there was a pattern of intention to deceive, I mean just that.
I think I have given people enough time to tell the truth, retract some lies, and tell the rest of the story, yet they continue to perpetuate the lies.
