WHO called the founders major league partyers? Why not quote the person or people that made the claim like a REAL journalist would?

How can you tar these founders as “partyers” withouth citing examples?

And so what? Isn’t mark cuban a “major league partyer”? Is that really a sin these days?

Get a clue guys. You can’t suggest that the founders are going to phoenix the business without citing a few quotes, evidence, and hard data. Otherwise you’re just slinging mud for the vc’s or worst you’re just making things up.

Hey did you hear? Tech chrunch employees are a bunch of wankers. Or so the word on the street goes. Its true I read it in a blog.

“What is going on with you guys, TechCrunch team? I am disappointed. Being a Mega blog comes with responsibility! I’d expect Techrunch team to be more professional and responsible before they claim the death of a startup, without conducting an in depth understanding of the situation. Startups are you bread and butter, and you want to treat them with care, if not respect. Regardless of whether this company will end up positively or not, there are many hearts behind it (like in each and every company you are covering) who have been walking a long way together. They, like any other tech startup, deserves the benefit of the doubt BEFORE you give them such a harmful PR. Patience = professionally.”

Anyways it’s amazing i have never heard of that comp….before LoL

People will screw you left right and center unless you CYA big time. In Israel if you have no leverage you will almost be guaranteed to get a chunk of your ass bitten off.

I’ve seen this happen in Egypt and UAE as well.

i’m a graphic designer and worked on a big animation project for knockaTV.(as a freelance animator). the project was delivered more than 4 months ago, but the payment never arrived.
i kept asking and they kept apologizing, now they just don’t answer my calls/emails anymore. they ought me about $10,000, and dcontacting them is impossible.

i know other people who also worked for them and never got their money.
right now i’m working for another start-up company and few of knocka’s developers have already arrived for a job interview – they know the ship is sinking.

it’s a sad story for knocka and an awful day for my pocket.

This is what you wrote in your previous post this morning. So if you fail to reach a company for comment, you make a verdict regarding its faith…. Someone is ‘playing God’… Is TechCrunch getting too powerful and arrogant? Not a wise attitude, guys.

Yes but thats said, you’ve proven yourself wrong at least once a day (and yes im counting).
