Company complaint?

[Oldfast]

So, nearly everyone currently on the list has responded. Updated list is nearly the same.

Aedalas, we could just wait and see how long it takes to get to you if you want.
If you're still busy by that time... it'd be no probelm to just move ya down.

RULES OF ENGAGEMENT... there aren't many really.

The only requirement is that you enjoy the locks, package them well, and pay shipping to the next guy.
If you feel compelled to add a lock to the mix to spice things up, that's great, but CERTAINLY NOT REQUIRED.
Also, a video always makes things fun too (out-of-box, or after the fact). But again, NOT REQUIRED.

THE LIST... people & order may change as we go.

If you're really interested in participating though, certainly feel free to PM me... and we'll go from there.
Thanks so much to all of you for helping me enjoy this wonderful hobby!

That works. I was basing that on the next two not responding as I haven't seen them around for a while, but you said most have responded.

[Oldfast]

Yes, it was a pleasant surprise to find the interest was still there after all this time

Hookedupinc is the only one I've not heard from. He's down the list though, so plenty of time.

[Oldfast]

Just an update, as some of you may wonder if this thing even exists anymore. lol

I've talked with LSA and he will be sending the package on when he gets a chance.

"I'll huff and I'll puff and I'll blow your house down"

I would not respond to them in any way, that only gives them words to pick apart and try to twist.
an apology would be an admission of bad intent.

ignore them and make them understand that any more bitch pressure is going to get publicized on the lock forums and unlike the little attention the first video got, it will make them infamous

The more places we mention their name on the internet the more like onity they will feel it on google.

they are aware they have a product that is trying to masquerade as better than it is, its up to them to make it better or get known as a BS lock.

[Oldfast]

Yeah Rai, it's funny... that's basically how it played out too.
I never responded, nor did I ever hear anything from them again.

As I've mentioned thoughout this thread, I've no aptitude when it comes to legal copyrights, technicalities, etc.
I'm just grateful I had you guys to consult with. And some of you did a great job with some quick research for me!

The MANY copyrights laws out there were created to protect your products from a wide variety of angles.
However, it seems to me that they're often misused. When companies file illegitimate claims, knowing FULL WELL
they have no legal leg to stand on... then they're basically manipulating the system! - they are using it as a
tool for intimidation rather than for protection. This may be perfectly legal... but it's certainly not right.

Anyhoot.... just for fun... let's post it again
My first vid was simply entitled "Money Deposit Bag", and I pick one open.
If you recall, I took my original video down, but replaced it with this one.



This time, picking 2 of their bags (one out-of-package), and I was sure
to INCLUDE their company name in the title this time around. LOL

[rerun12]

you might find this an interesting read oldfast: http://www.copylaw.org/p/termination-of ... ng_17.html

edit: as someone who likes to write and play music i enjoyed the article, doesnt really relate to the subject in this thread directly but i still found it interesting

[pickafication]

Yeah I must have. Did you ever get it open?

No i never picked it open :/ so i just made keys for it.. so i guess in a way i did

[pickafication]

I havent been on Keypicking for a while but it was great to catch up on this thread and soo how the passalong has come along! Great picking guys was pure entertainment ! and thank oldfast again for the great opportunity!

[Oldfast]

pickaficatiooOOOOOooon! DAMN good to see ya buddy! I know you've been busy.

@rerun - I wouldn't mind taking a look at that. Think the link broke... maybe when you edited your post?

[Oldfast]

This package is finally on the move again. It's enroute (maybe already there) to Thedonofdeath.

I realize it's been quite some time and some of you may have lost interest, or your situation has changed.
I'll pm the remaining members on the list to see where everyone's at with this. Or feel free to post here.
After everyone's had sufficient time to reply, I'll eventually post an updated list.

[Oldfast]

Apologies to anyone that's been waiting on this. I haven't really kept up on it as much as I should have.

I sent out some PM's this morning though. We'll see if we can't get this package on the move again.

[Oldfast]

Again, my apologies for not keeping up on this. Thedonodeath currently has it.
He very promptly responded to me and will be getting it on the move again.

So.... just as a refresher....


It started out with a 6-pin HURD lock that I threw into the deposit bag.
Along the way, people have generously added many other goodies.




RULES OF ENGAGEMENT...there aren't many really. But PLEASE read them before committing!

The only requirement is that you enjoy the locks, package them well!!!!, and pay shipping to the next guy.
If you feel compelled to add a lock to the mix to spice things up, that's great, but CERTAINLY NOT REQUIRED.
Also, a video always makes things fun too (out-of-box, or after the fact). But again, NOT REQUIRED.
And lastly... I'm not going to rush people along... but pass it on within a reasonable amount of time.


THE LIST... people & order may change as we go (usually due to logistics)
I TRULY hate to exclude ANYONE! But if you recently joined the forum ... please tryn' appreciate my reluctance.
If you're really interested in participating though, certainly feel free to PM me... and we'll go from there.
Thanks so much to all of you for helping me enjoy this wonderful hobby!

*Note the four pending members between Thedonodeath and GWiens2001.
These members have not logged onto the forum for over a year. I've sent out
PM's though and we'll see how it goes. I have not indefinitely excluded them.
It can always come back around. But for now, it will go to GWiens2001.

To anyone wanting in on some of this easy gravy I need 2 things:
1. Post your request on this thread.
2. PM me your current address.

[nsquidc]

Sounds like fun. I'd like to throw my hat in the ring
