1/31/13 Post 6 (Part 2)

This is the second post in a series. To read from the beginning, please click HERE.

Well Gary, until January 2012, it wasn't. It's really not even a 'business' now. It's a DBA (doing business as). A DBA doesn't allow you to solicit donations countrywide and internationally.

Oh, so how HE gave it to Kristen. I guess it was physically in his hands as he gave it to her, he is correct. However he's not the source of the iPad like he wants people to believe.

Orange/Black arrows: See what I mean? Btw, Facebook hasn't told anyone how many of anything it takes to do anything.

Green: You drove your wife's car. You've said this repeatedly. The gas was paid for by the community. It's not strange that someone only had a specific day to meet you. Contrary to what you think, the world does not revolve around you, Gary.

Blue: Just has to attempt to bring the drama away from him and back to them.

Purple: I missed this apparently.

Red: An invoice for what she gave you. However, you seem to delight in being obtuse.

What an inflated amount of self worth. He really thinks he's worth $600 an hour to present. I hope others hoping to have him present for them see this.

Gary, shall I link to the Gas for Gary group again?

Well, Gary... According to the group that was started for that purpose, $5,000.

This is the end of my screen captures. I'm sure there was more said later on. You are welcome to read the post for yourself. I do want to comment about this last comment though. This conference they are talking about is the Louisiana Super Conference. Gary was speaking on Apps in the Classroom, even though he claims he wasn't.

So, really? This was taken directly from the brochure for that conference. Gary, you really need to write down what you tell people. Also you need to make sure that what you say cannot be contradicted by print media.

1/31/13 Post 6 (Part 1)

Yes, we are now on to the SIXTH post of the evening of January 31. There is only one more after this. Then, we'll start on his EPIC unbusinessman like breakdown of February. Most of which he's deleted.

So, here we go: Original post can be found here:
https://www.facebook.com/a4cwsn/posts/446105778789999

There's going to be a whole lot of good night comments. I'll skip most of them to get right to the main parts of the post.

Red: Why did he have to broadcast how much was donated? Because he's Gary and he was trying to intimidate her.

Green: Exactly. No legitimate anything operates in this manner. Not one single business, charity, what have you has their CEO come on night after night and bully, berate, and badger their fans.

Blue: He will answer this is a bit by saying he'll send her a bill for his time instead. Oh yes, he will.

Red: Can you read this? Lois donated 3 iPads and $1100 to the various GiveForwards and iTunes cards donated to your "charity". She is asking for a refund.

Orange: This is the guy. He'll be labelled with the orange/black arrows. His comments are funny. Pull with Facebook? More like desperate attempt to get Gary to notice him.

Green: Paula didn't vanish. Hit "refresh".

As for comment on his personal life, do you not remember the bullcrap he's been pulling out all night about other people's lives?

Red: See, I told he would. At least he acknowledges she gave him the 3 iPads. However, one of them went directly to his lawyer, not a child in need. Oh, and he didn't pay for gas, or hotel, or food. The community did. Some hotels comped him room stays.

Green: We're quite sure he did keep it. That's why we are asking for transparency. The same transparency he is unwilling to give.

Orange/Black: See what I mean? This guy gets worse as the thread goes on.

Red: Exactly. One of Lois' iPads were given to the lawyer, and he didn't pay for gas, food, hotel.

Red: Ok... Here is a screencap from a different blog on the Lawyer herself admitting she was given an iPad. So, yes Gary, there is proof you gave her one.

Green: You want proof you didn't pay for it? Ok. HERE, HERE, HERE.

See Gary, maybe you shouldn't ask for the proof. Someone always comes up with it.

1/31/13 Post 5 (part 2)

This is the 2nd part in a series, to start from the beginning, please click HERE.

Whoa. So, because you receive something, you have to remain a faithful supporter FOR LIFE? What other company does that? Let's also notice that this 'supporter' of Gary's claims that those against him must not have special needs children. How dare she go there! Then she further continues to act like a drama queen by calling those against Gary termites. THIS is how he wants people to act? Remember, this is one of his "Top Supporters"!

Actually Gary, it does matter what David thinks. It matters what every single person on your site thinks. If you were a proper businessman, you would know this. If it's about the truth though, why don't you start telling the truth? Your claims against Taffie were proven false, as she can provide PROOF that what she says is true.

Thank you Kate!

And another one bites the dust. Gary did this all by himself. David started out simply questioning why Gary had to do these posts in a public forum. It ended up with David realizing that Gary does NOT care what the community members want. It's only what Gary wants. David, I'm so sorry you had to see the true Gary this way. I'm so glad you saw him for what he is though.

As for you, Johnna, they HAVE. The COMMUNITY is who buys the iPads, not Gary. Please, do not believe it is anything other than that.

Let things happen his way. Or you can leave. That's it. Period.

And no, Michelle, David's comments did not sound like he was against Gary and everything he does. He sounded like a man trying to get someone to understand that BUSINESMEN do NOT act like this! However, since he dared to question Gary, you went on full attack mode. How typical.

This is where my screencaps of this post end. I'm sure there were more comments, but you can read them yourself, if you so choose, if they still exist.

Please realize one thing about A4. Do not question anything ever. If you do, even as simply as to ask how the contests work, you will be vilified and virtually tarred and feathered by the top supporters, then banned by Gary himself.

1/31/13 Post 5 (Part 1)

This is post FIVE of this same night. Can you believe we haven't let January 31st yet? Once again, this is another call to kiss his butt. This one ends up being completely different than the previous butt kissing post.

Original post found here: https://www.facebook.com/a4cwsn/posts/446078768792700

If it were about the children, why does Gary refuse to link to other sites that can help children? Why does Gary refuse to allow people to link their fundraiser for their child? Why does Gary spend an insane amount of (community raised) money on travel, when Apple ships iPads for free? If it were about the children, wouldn't you do anything you could for the children?

Actually, he IS the problem.

Remember how I told you to pay attention to the orange arrows... here you go. Keep an eye on them. This man will post a ton of things each more desperate in order to get Gary to notice him.

Once again, he has no proof of anything he is claiming, yet he continues on. As for putting A4 on the line, he should have thought of that long ago.

Green: Once again, this isn't how a businessman should ever act.

Blue: He refuses. He even refuses to give them to the AG of CT!

Yellow: This man will be a voice of reason. He will continue to ask why Gary allows the drama on his page, why Gary perpetuates the drama.

Red: Really? Gary is the king of deleting posts. You will see this later on when I link you to whole posts that no longer exist.

Blue: The truth is coming out Gary and you are afraid of it.

Brown: Couldn't play the game anymore. That's exactly what it is. Too many people have asked exactly how to 'win' an iPad, the 'rules' are posted, then Gary announces a winner that didn't follow these stated rules. Yet, when confronted about it, Gary goes on about how it's HIS page and he can do what he wants.

Yellow: Once again, a voice of reason. Why does the community need this information? Especially information that has been proven to be false.

Red: The protocol has been followed. The AG is still waiting for you to turn over your financial statements.

Green: If you actually knew the truth, you wouldn't be on A4 anymore.

Blue: What IS more important? To Gary, that would be the drama because he can attempt to make himself look like a victim.

Green: It's stealing, not steeling. The Attorney General has been given documents pertaining to Gary's theft of the Special Needs community.

Red: I hope you remember this statement when it's you Gary is accusing of something next.

Well, in reality, the law is who is telling him how he can do it. That's why laws exist about accepting donations across state lines, accepting donations internationally, while claiming to be a business or charity.

Red: They have, repeatedly, you delete it or try to manipulate it to say it's been taken out of context.

Yellow: I wasn't around at this point in time, but several people have mentioned this. You can read one person's recollection of it HERE.

Yes, please do.

1/31/13 Post 4

Now we start the guilt trip portion of the evening. These will be heavily screenshotted posts, as there is a lot of butt-kissing. So, here we go.
Original post can be found: https://www.facebook.com/a4cwsn/posts/446104312123479

Yep, typical Gary guilt trip after flying off the handle. He threatens this a lot.

Red: Exactly 110% correct. He does. This is his M.O.

Orange: Keep an eye on this one. I'll label all his posts with an orange arrow for this thread. He's rather humorous, but works hard to get Gary to notice him.

Green: A page of love and support calling people flying pigs? Yes, that's exactly my definition of love and support. By the way, come join us.

Red: You know, it's been a week and a half since he posted these. He said he was going to post the police report. Still no post.

Actually, it has nothing to do with that. A lot of people against Gary have won and still recognize him for what he is.

Getting sick of all the butt kissing yet? I am and there's still a ton more to go.

Actually, there are plenty of other people that can judge him. The Attorney General is one of them.

Do you see a common theme here? Butt kissing and saying those against Gary are scum. That is definitely a welcoming community.

Ok. Butt kissing, butt kissing, and more butt kissing. I'm going to be skipping a bunch of the butt kissing and getting on into later posts in this thread. Is that ok with you?

Out of maybe 50+ more comments, these are the only 3 that aren't more butt kissing. This thread did exactly what Gary wanted it to do, show him who was willing to ignore what the 'hatters' were saying and keep on believing in him. Iris is one of the few that night, myself included, that saw that the drama was originating with Gary. HE IS THE ONE THAT CAUSES THE DRAMA.

What other businessman does the kinds of things Gary does?

1/31/13 Post Three (Part 4)

This is the 4th part in a series, to start at the beginning, please click HERE.

Remember, this was a post about accusing a special needs mother of scamming the A4 community, with ZERO proof. These are fellow special needs parents now asking for her virtual head on a platter.

One of the few people to not instantly villanize Melissa/Taffie without knowing the whole story. Bravo.

This is where I stopped taking screencaps. If you visit the post: A4cwsn, you can read any comments that were posted after this, assuming they weren't deleted. However, I did notice this post on the very bottom of the thread today.

Yes you are reading that correctly. This whole drama filled evening of posts about Melissa and Taffie are made up! Gary made it all up. Taffie can prove that everything she said was true. Gary cannot.

1/31/13 Post Three (Part 3)

This is the 3rd post in a series, to start from the beginning, please click HERE.

"Send money for your stupidness." Classy right there.

Someone just informed that since all these posts are on a public page, I'm not required to black out their names/profile pictures. From now on, unless they've given me permission to use their full name, I will still black out their last name and profile picture. I will not be blacking out their first name.

Red: Once again, Gary shows his true colors. He's now accusing a SN mother of abusing her children. If you watch further comments, his 'supporters' go right along with it. They don't question him once on his behavior.

Orange: This woman is a nasty woman. She has been continually calling people names (and will continue to do so).  As for a poor example of a parent, maybe she should point that finger at herself.

Actually, A4 isn't stronger than ever. Take some time and go back over older posts. There used to be a community several hundred people strong posting all the time. Developers used to drop in all during the day to offer codes, cases, stylus, and other things. Ask Gary sometime the amount of developers that have pulled out. Ask about Griffin. Ask why developers aren't hosting app parties on A4 anymore. (They are on other pages.) Yes, there are 19,000 'likes'. This is due to contests where you had to enter by getting 10+ people to 'like' A4 and say you sent them. How many of those 19,000 are actually active? 

Red: Poor form to call God, or any religion for that matter, into this. Just because someone disagrees with what you believe, doesn't mean they should seek God. 

Orange: "Ban the trolls" Interesting take on things. A person isn't a troll simply you don't like what they are saying. By the same token of definition on your side, Gary would be considered a troll too. Don't forget that fact.

Green: Incorrect. Gary doesn't. The community does. Please do not forget that. The community funded EVERYTHING that happens on that page.

Blue: This woman has asked several times to have her money refunded, yet her posts keep disappearing. 

Red: Trolls and haters, that's what people who are trying to keep people from being duped are called. This from wonderful loving caring supporting members of A4.

 Is that the kind of place you want to frequent? I know I don't.
