I personally know two individuals that got sued (successfully) by a hunt booking agent over on a hunting forum. Even though it's the internet, you still need to be cautious on what you say and accuse folks of.

This thread is shrinking in post counts by the second [emoji2]

Seriously??????:yikes

WTF deal with a company (any company) that has this kind of history when there are others that don't??? IMO this kind of thinking in general is why there are programs like American Greed on TV............Fool me once, shame on you.....fool me twice, shame on ME............I'm sorry but in my experience leopards don't change their spots......good luck with this though I hope it works out for you cuz...............we can always use the drama around this place :D


I think what rmarion is getting at is....

There is a big difference between someone operating a business that runs into serious cash flow problems and is doing questionable financial tactics trying to hold on, vs. someone who has a criminal mind and sets out to defraud and steal money from people from the get go. My opinion is that Tim falls into the former scenario (cash flow problem and not a criminal). I think Tim would prefer to run the business where people get paid immediately, but with the overhead and cash flow issues isn't able to do that. I am not saying it is the right thing to do, but is is far different than being a criminal at heart. Once again, just my opinion of the situation.

Posting an opinion on a forum does not open you to libel.

If anyone gets anything resembling a lawsuit from this guy, contact Ken White at Popehat.

Being bad at business is one thing. Outright lying is another. From all I've read about this deal, he continually lied about payments. Plus everyone is left wondering where the money suddenly came from when he was "cornered". Is this clear capital or money owed to someone else?

His lying and misuse of funds are to me more criminal than just an inept businessman. I've seen many a small business that operates in a loose knit manner bordering on illegal and most times so called nice guys having a run of bad luck, turn out to be long term hucksters that only know one way to operate and it typically involves separating other people from their money. They literally can smile, look you in the eye, pick your pocket, and claim they're helping you out.

These guys play on sympathy from others and show complete lack of conscience. Normal folks could not sleep at night operating like the boat dealer has to this point. Maybe short of criminal at heart, but definitely far short of being a respectable, responsible human being.

And like you, this is just my opinion from 30,000 feet.:skull

Fair enough I never thought or said he was a criminal at heart.....not what I was saying at all.......still doesn't change the fact that I will not do business there.......thank goodness that's my right, if you want to, I completely support your right to do so:thumbup:

There is no slander when the statements are true. I believe OCM has 30 days to pay the seller their money. Both of these guys were beyond that. That's why this got so big. Also if they investigate these wire confirmation #s and they are not real, there are no lies there either. No lies no case.

Unless Dave has been duping us the whole time :p

Glad these two got paid. Scary deal for the both of them no doubt. Not sure if anyone else is even owed any money at this point. So saying there is another Peter or Paul is not fact until someone else comes forward.

LOL re the lawsuits, what fuckin attorney works for free for a guy with ZERO cash, no credibility, judgments looming, and his reputation? Good luck TIMMMMMMMMMMYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!

Perhaps a fucking attorney who had his boat sold under consignment or is otherwise owed money :D

My X wife has owned a court reporter / deposition reporting business forever, of course all her clients are attorneys. Her collection stories read just like this thread :(

I didn't say that. An opinion is one thing, but stating your opinion as a fact isn't opinion.

My point is, why expose yourself to some BS lawsuit for no reason other than to post on a thread?

But don't let me stop you. :D

The fact that he is willing to sue the members here for Libel should tell you what kind of person Tim is. Surprised he's getting a pass from some of you. I liked him and he was always cool with me, but this whole deal plus the libel lawsuits has changed my opinion of him completely.

Careful Hammer, your statement is setting you up for a "Hurt my feelings" suit......:skull

To me his threats show he cannot distinguish right from wrong. Those kind of people need to be given a wide berth and avoided at all costs.

I told RD years ago something was off about him and that my gut instinct was that I wanted to punch him in the face multiple times. RD told me he was a good guy and I was just being "Billdo". I guess my gut feeling was right.

That doesn't change the fact that you were still just being Billdo [emoji16]

When does your gut instinct not tell you to punch anyone in the face? [emoji14]

I know you weren't implying / saying that he is a criminal at heart. I also am not implying / saying that I would enter into a business arrangement with OCM. I think we are on the same page Paul.

Never go against your gut instinct. Every time I did, I got burnt.

Lets just say (theoretically), someone may have the money. But since they have a judgement (maybe more than one) and cannot leave money in their accounts, the money could be in - lets say Panama. The money could be wired to another account in the states and then a third time to someone else. I have seen this done many times. Also, people that have these types of issues, usually have issues with the IRS & State Taxes.

The threat of such lawsuits chills speech.

Thank you for illustrating my point.

Note that Tim keeps no money in his account because apparently so many have judgements against him and if he puts 2 cents in the bank must apply the judgement and take the money out. When the judge ordered him to appear in court with statements, this is known as a judgement debtor hearing where he must layout all of his assets. The judge then issues a court order seizing any assets. It can be a shell game.
Like I said, it's probably in some "Offshore" account in the Carribean.[emoji19] [emoji21]

Most of these banks require a minimum and I doubt he has the "minimum". He ain't rollin that large.
