In that case, I'll remove myself from this board and move on :)

>You could try shutting your big fat mouth
Is cussing where I come from, maybe we got different standards though.

Anyhow, if you're all so invested in this and desperately need proof to believe what I wrote, why don't you just write Baby yourself? It only takes a few secs!

>>8466489
You didn't even look at their posts it seems, cussing at me for not delivering caps right away is pretty entitled. If you want something, don't be a dick to the person you want it from, pretty simple. Bottom line is, what will they do with the info? Do something useful? Sue John or something? Because then I might be tempted to post it a bit quicker.

Yeah, this is really making me want to post even more! I will post in my own time. The entitlement is strong here.

How was I quick with proving caps of John (hint: I wasn't, I took quite a while) and why does the speed of that require me to be quick with any other caps? This whole thing has slowed down, I don't see any rush with me posting the caps or not, it's not like it will make any difference. JLA won't release a statement, Misako is still working with them and most brands simply don't care because it's not part of their culture to do so.

I think I mentioned it a couple times before, however I didn't know for sure if the box I saw was actually stolen, until I got a message from Baby, and thus I didn't really want to run around saying "hey I saw a huge box full with stolen crap in John's storage unit!" before I actually knew it was true. Makes sense, doesn't it?

Unfortunately I don't have camera eyes, so I don't have proof of the box. But Triviata and Sleepless Masquerade were definitely in it, along with a lot of other dresses.

I think they planned food but it all went wrong? I went into a giant hotel room with a couple of staff members to pack something up, and there was a table full of stacks of spoiled (Subway?) sandwiches. There was a lot of other untouched spoiled food in that room too, although it still wouldn't have been enough to feed everyone.

I have the same problem with my IC pair, they're super uncomfortable and I can't really walk around much in them, even though many higher shoes I have walk fine.

>>8428621
KL didn't ship items for sale [because they sold out of everything or production problems?? Not entirely clear what they meant], but I let John know in advance. He should have updated. I also had a ton of outfits for the fashion show, but John didn't assign anyone to KL and I managed to get him to arrange 2 models last minute.

>>8424952
He did this to one of my friends too.

>>8423085
John managed to push my buttons by not letting the KA thing drop while I was trying to talk to him about the problems we had with the event, he tried to force it on me and I just wanted to stop talking about it. Said some harsh things there in my anger, unfortunately. I talked with Pom about it, she was really nice about it even though she didn't have to be that nice at all.

On the NASA tour we went on there wasn't anyone to translate for the Japanese guests. The most fun was had at the souvenir store.

>>8422861
From what I noticed he didn't do anything with the other guests personally. I know Kaname and studio Trigger went on a NASA tour too, but that was without John.

>>8422741
I didn't sign anything. Do I have you on Facebook? It might be better to talk through there.

>>8422736
Wait, you don't mean me opening the door in a skirt and a bra was the worst thing?! Funny thing is, I have no skirts that fit anymore.

>>8422709
No problems. If there are any other things that are unclear I'll gladly explain it from my side. I know John managed to whip up an interesting blog post, but most of it is a twisted form of what happened, like with the invoice.

>>8422675
I have that feeling too. Especially because shipping back will be expensive and cost a lot in customs.

>>8422674
He showed me a receipt of the Fedex bill, it wasn't 9k though. The 9k was what I invoiced him before deductions (ie. before he showed me the Fedex bill) and it was corrected afterwards!

>>8422646
We went to VS with his wife and Minori, I actually wanted to pay for it myself seeing as it wasn't cheap indeed and I felt bad about it. It seems to be a tradition for him to take guests out for shopping in VS (I think from AM15 there was a pic of everyone in a limo with pink VS bags), so I went along with it. In hindsight it wasn't the best idea to accept a gift like that.

>>8422607
>she even conned him and AM into using their fedex account to ship her shitty wigs over
I asked the wigs to be shipped over his account because it will clear customs quicker as he told me had some sort of agreement with them. The amount I invoiced him for was for the amount that was sold - I told him that no costs were deducted as he didn't give me any info on that, later the shipping costs were deducted from that, which I offered to pay myself even though at first he was like "just subtract whatever you feel like".

> Then when they tell her she is responsible for getting the wigs back to Germany
They never told me what to do with the wigs so I made an arrangement with the Lolita Collective. Later John tried to make me feel bad for not leaving them with him because he apparently wanted to sell them, without ever showing interest in the beforehand.

>>8421956
He never paid for them by the way! I forgot to write that.

>>8421848
One of the guests told me that John never paid Nightmare and Miyavi for their appearance either.

>>8421251
The thing is, I don't care about the wigs at this point. Those are done, I made them and they were my choice.

However I didn't want to make the hair extensions, mainly because John failed to give me extra info on them. If the designers really requested them, then they would have told him the colors they wanted. However even after asking, John never provided me with the color selection and instead I had to decide on that myself. I wasted time to have those produced, I spent a day alone on making a custom color mix.

On the day of the show John confirmed my suspicions that it was all bullshit, and that's why I got angry. I got angry because he lied about it. Yes he blew it off and said he would pay for them. If you have the choice between an AP designer telling you they didn't know anything about it or John talking around it, making you look like a fool, who would you believe?

Why would he do it? Maybe he hoped they found it an awesome idea and he could tell them that it was his idea all alone? Because he does like to take credit for hard work of other people.

>>8420563
That is a good idea, Ill just work it into my master post :)

>>8420556
John told me a bit about his immigration, he's married to an US citizen so he's here legally.

I was prepared to make a blog post in response to what he would cook up, but what he wrote is just so ridiculous. He cries slander and then writes.. something like that. I'm not even sure if I should bother writing something up. I don't want to give him the extra attention.

Should I? Shouldn't I?

Where was this tiny room? Was it where you entered or somewhere else?
