For a while we did allow Kenny's comments, but when we realized he was trying to use Not Another Dime (For Ken Whitman) as an additional forum to harass his Kickstarter Backers, we put the stop to that. We allowed at least one more comment that was directed at us, but we decided that wasn't doing anyone any favors either.
Last night's comment was directed solely at us and basically consisted of an attempt to disparage NAD and it's mission.
Listen Kenny, and yes.....this is actually directed to you. We don't really care how many people look at our posts and that you are directing traffic to Tenkar's Tavern. We don't profit one cent from this blog and maintaining it takes us away from the lives we'd rather be living. There are no ads and the way this blog is setup we couldn't get an accurate account of page views even if we wanted to. We have but one purpose, which is to document your shit online so people can educate themselves appropriately.
For new readers of NAD: We originally tried to be as neutral as possible, but that gets harder and harder as time marches on. When we post an opinion we try to explain that it is an opinion and we frequently remind our readers that while we post the truth and post document links whenever possible, a lot of links go dead and to please assume anything that cannot be read firsthand by you is fake/false information. We do try to get confirmations from 3rd parties, but please...don't trust us.....make up your own mind. NAD exists to help you do that to the best of our ability.
Now, back to the task at hand, which is documenting Ken "Whit" Whitman's recent Tenkar's Tavern comments:
No one takes time to post my reply to the law suit in NY?
Seems it's only fun to report the bad and made up stories, but when the the truth comes up you don't like, you just skim on past it.
Me: I'm gonna be in walking dead
You: you're a lier
Me: see I was
You: daaaaa
You: Ken stold 250k In movie shit
Me: nope
You: fuck you ya crook
Me: she found them
You: daaaaa
You: here's civil papers on kemin NY but a guy disbarred in the state of MA for being unethical
Me: really this guy's an idiot
You: you're in trouble, we got you now
Me: this guy's an idiot
You: daaaaa"
Second Question: it's all electronic, you can see them they are public files. Idiot never put them up like he did his own papers because he knows he's gonna get his case dropped and wants to play it off.
Third question: I mean the statment. Kinda had to get shit done when 32 assholes, 2 idiots, and 200 misguided and lied too people think your the devil and break every law on the book to lible you. "
Quick rhetorical question...how many of us are assholes, and which us us (if any) are the idiots?
For the record, we've looked at the documentation that Ken "Whit" Whitman has referred to as "No one takes time to post my reply to the law suit in NY? " last night and "Yes Amazing how no one posted anything about it." the day before when answering the made up question of "Has Ken answered the NYC Lawsuit?" Asking the State Supreme Court for "Judicial Intervention" and asking for the suit to be dismissed for improper venue really isn't an answer, not at least to anyone here at NAD.
We don't have a lawyer on staff, but common sense seems to dictate that if someone is trying to argue that they aren't covered by a particular jurisdiction then maybe, just maybe, they shouldn't cite as reference the very agreement that establishes they agreed to abide by that very jurisdiction "You agree that any action at law or in equity arising out of or relating to these terms, or your use or non-use of the Services, shall be filed only in the state or federal courts located in New York County in the State of New York and you hereby consent and submit to the personal jurisdiction of such courts for the purposes of litigating any such action. "
Our readers can find that information on this page if you wish to follow along.
I MADE THE PAGES OF NAD! WOOOHOOO I AM FAMOUS!
ReplyDeleteI have sent an email to the people in Atlanta yesterday to see if they really did find the files they were looking for.
ReplyDeletePlease let us know if you hear back from them.
DeleteThis is a good question. Did the "Atlanta acting community" or whatever we should call them actually get the product they were promised from Ken Whitman? Any answer from Atlanta yet?
DeleteAny news on the Atlanta actors?
DeleteJust for the record, on what basis did he argue for dismissal?
ReplyDeleteHe (i.e., Ken Whitman) filed a request to dismiss based on improper venue (it's not an improper venue).
ReplyDeleteHere is the link to Whit Whitman AKA Ken Whitman's motion to have the dismissal. You can download a pdf if you want:

best wishes!
Just to clarify, technically it is not a motion, it was part of his answer.
ReplyDeleteOne thing I am surprised at, is that before Whitman filed his answer, I warned him that if he didn't put something into his answer that would be considered mandatory that it would be viewed as being waived.
If Whitman really thought that venue was wrong, and only going to answer about venue, he also had the option to ignore the case and then file against any actions taken claiming they were invalid due to venue. The problem with going that way is that one could only litigate on venue and nothing else.
Ken promised footage/demo reel for actors willing to buy into and help produce a mini web type series. The cost was $200 per actor, which I paid in summer 2016. After the payment was made, Ken conveniently had schedule conflicts and could never arrange for filming and said demo footage. Then he would never answer emails or messages for a refund. It took until a month and a half ago (23 months after my original payment) for him to start communicating with me and agree to pay me $25 a week…
ReplyDeleteOut of all of those attempts during the 23 months hiatus, he answered me once to advise that he had no memory of why he owed the money. He kept stating that he had suffered chronic concussions causing memory issues. I did surprisingly receive two payments totaling $50, .but when I inquired about the remaining amount, stating I still hadn’t received it...he just says that he has sent the money but can’t provide record or receipt to prove it.
He Also took payment from another young lady for demo footage not related to the series listed above. She only gave $100, but he won’t answer her inquiries and eventually blocked her from any contact whatsoever.
