Quoted from HoakyPoaky:No.....I don't remember these threads, because I'm not on Google Groups.
But if I HAD seen this information back in Sep 2016, I would have bailed in a HEARTBEAT! I certainly would not have sent my final payment.
It really burns my ass that those who tried to wave a red flag were labeled as troublemakers with an agenda & banned by moderators from the Alien thread. I'm sitting here turning red reading this bullshit, because I'm not an "insider" with privileged information & I literally had no clue to what was really going on. I even sympathized with Andrew that people were unjustly trying to ruin his company. Well it's clear that he did that all on his own.
I've had my doubts over the last 2 years, but since this was a dream theme, I basically ignored them. But sweeping legitimate concerns under the rug is a disservice to all pinsiders, and it's disgraceful that it continues to happen. I'm so over it.
Where the hell is my $8K refund huh? I want no part of this company, new/old or otherwise. It's a shame because a lot of good people have worked hard to turn this into a pretty cool game. I'm just over it, and I think most people can sympathize.
This is exactly why Stern doesn't give a shit about pinside and keeps there business to there own. Its the only right way to doo it. Its business not a forum-talk-leak-info-share-company.
I wish highway company all the luck, wish all buyers gets there pins.
I lost few bucks on my predator pin, i have learned alot since then.
WHEN MY PIN SUPPLYER HAS MY SW LE ON STOCK, i will make full payment and hopefully get my pin. This shit about paying 2 years in front was the dummest thing i did! But i learned from it.
