To Apologize And Clear Things Up....

Keith, the most important thing is that you get this message. Since the topic regarding this has been removed from the forum (as it should have been) I assume that this message will not make it to the forum. It is obviously your perrogative to delete it. My name is Adam Fancher, I am the founder of Affordable Musical Endeavors. I am just starting up my business, I am not a gigantic company. It was just me...until I decided to take on my first "employee"....a kid I offered 10 bucks to spread the word around about the availability of the product I am trying to market The way he chose to accomplish this is appalling and I am furious with his actions. He was NOT instructed to lie to people! He came in here, saw that the rules clearly stated that no commercial advertisements were allowed. So not only did he violate that, he also got around it by lying and pretending to be an average joe. Obviously this stupid kid got his foot stuck in a rabbit trap when he turned around and posted in another yahoo group pretending to be me. Then on top of that, when it became obvious he became caught, he played dumb in both of the groups, and finished off ruining my reputation by mouthing off to keith. two minutes later he realized that he screwed up, panicked, and came running to me. I couldn't get him to tell me exactly what he said to keith, except that it "wasn't very nice". So on behalf of what this little (insert expletive) has done, I just want to apologize. I will continue to do ALL the legwork until I'm well established enough to find employees that won't alienate potential customers. An advertisement, in any form, for my product had no place in this group. Despite the fact that I had no control over this kid's actions, my reputation which doesn't even exist yet has already taken a battering. Nonetheless, I apologize for the damage that he has caused. Needless to say I told him not to contact me again.
