Is it just me, or does anyone -else- have the urge to unleash a rabid pack of squirrels on Batsu?

*raises hand* Me. :mad: When I recieved that form letter, I was so mad... one of my books suffered for it. >_< They didn't really answer anything I asked! What the hell is up with these Batsu f*ckers? I have never seen a 'company' so disorganized. I bet the only reason that they've put up an apology and the construction sign is because people like us are emailing and posting. Grrr...

Sorry, but I am really mad. If Midi:Nette doesn't confirm this in a week, Batsu's gonna get another letter from me that's not so nice. :twisted:

I can only imagine! Just reading that letter second hand infuriated me, especially the fact that they didnt give a straight answer either way on the subject. Totally not cool.

Yeah, if Midi:Nette doesnt confirm this within a week, Batsu's getting a rather angry letter from me.

And they wont like me when I'm angry

*whew* Good thing that information is true and correct... I would have been crushed if Warp Forge wasn't real ::meev::

Still highly unprofessional. If you're a public company managing a major international tour, you can afford to have public contact information. It's called a PR department, or at least a spokesperson.

Did anyone else read the forum and notice that people are referring to this company as a new startup?

Wouldn't Mana know better than to do business with a new startup? Look what happened to Kozi when he signed onto a startup label XD

I wouldn't say kozi, but Eod management (?) and i think maybe Midi:Nette management has a say in this too -- i mean, all the decisions maybe are not done by mana.

btw, always when i load batsu now it will open a kozi picture at the top... o_O

That's true, but whoever's running the show over there, they usually don't make blatantly stupid business decisions XD

If this turns out to be true, I'm writing Midi:Nette a letter asking them to reconsider.

(and yeah the Kozi picture at Batsu is meevable)

Exactly! I saw that last night. Mana's much smarter than that.

I hope all these issues with the site putting it up then taking it down and so forth is Midi:Nette putting the smack-down on them. I had to supress major laughter about all that when I got caught up just now!! :lol: ::squee::

Yes. That's what I've pretty much done when I emailed about the site's legitimacy.

I will make a thread for it if we end up needing such a letter.

wtf?! "Batsu fan club"? Fan club for what? They haven't even done anything! :| And they don't seem to grasp the concept that we *are* calling him a flat-out liar. ::bleh::

Okay, I gotta stay away from that site. It's making me vehemently angry... it really is a bit absured, though, isn't it? lol...

edit: sounds like a good idea to me, flowers! :grin: Do you think Midi:nette knows about scape?

I hope not, after I uploaded Mana's Girl'e demos ::meev::
Mana: "DEATHHHHHHHHH"


More sketchiness:
http://batsu.org/viewtopic.php?t=12591

Batsu is hiring! 5 to 7 people! And these hires will not even be made till the end of the month.

"Starts out as a PART-TIME TEMPORARY UNPAID internship."

Great, Mana's supposed nationwide concert tour would be staffed entirely by 5-7 unpaid, new-to-the-job volunteers and/or Batsu mods. :P


EDIT: also, remember that LJ link I posted? That was actually the founder of PMX telling "daisuke" from Batsu (i.e. the head of Batsu-Ent) that he didn't do his job as a PMX staffer:

Woah woah, I won't be taking part in that because I have no desire to kick the crap out of disabled children. :|
