i've bitten my tounge throughout this thread, but just can't resist anymore...
phil, what you've done in the last couple of days, w the refunds and your posts on pinside is the single most unprofessional thing I've ever witnessed in business, EVER. seriously man, not even just in the pinball business, but in the history of business across the board. you did it, you acheived this status which makes you completely worthless in the job market going forward. who the hell would ever trust you to handle anything related to their company? regardless of whether DP is legit or a fraud, your actions have shown me personally that you are a liability at all levels. finance, marketing, and most importantly... loyalty.
why wouldn't you handle this the way any other sane business person would? get a lawyer! if you're truly that concerned about you're own safety and well-being, that's what a professional does. when this inevidibly hits the legal stage, and you have to actually seek counsel, what do you think your lawyer's going to say when you tell him/her that you issued unrequested refunds, went public about your feelings on a pinball forum, and dragged your ex-employers' names through the mud??? he/she won't want to go near that case. you've made yourself look like a spoiled 12 yo girl who didn't get a pony for her birthday, so she's holding her breath, stomping her foot and telling the neighbors that her daddy touched her.
what you've done is an intentional character assassination w a obvious vendetta, all disguised as a Robin Hood scheme. me, nor my money will ever go anywhere near anything you're even slightly involved in, and I suggest that pinsiders follow my lead.
the real question is, how the hell did you get hired in the first place?!?
