I got a wonderful offline message from a lady in which whom I personally banned from my sim after finding that her and her partner copied a wedding venue of mine for their own Wedding sim "Family Ties Weddings"
Now folks... I have tried to remain as professional as possible (if that's even possible in SL) for quite some time now. I have tried to chill out a bit. Let the small stuff "go". and just have more fun with building.
However... Today has just been one of "those days"!
I logged out to have some dinner with my family and when I logged in I received the following message (and I am merely copy and pasting)...
[2014/04/16 18:49] Greeneyedbabe Resident: (Saved Wed Apr 16 06:49:09 2014)Excuse me ...Who the hell do you think you are ..Yes UI am an alt but I was looking to marry .. How dare you presume I was there trolling I mean WTF I was there looking to buy ..for my own weding .. I will be personally degradeing your company to anyone that asks me you rude bitch !!
Now folks... I ask you... Is this someone who you would trust your Wedding Day with?
Also mind you... My original message to her was NOT rude in the least. I merely stated that I had become to realize the nature of her visits and she and her partner had been banned.
I did not call her or her partners any names of any kind. I was quite professional in my message to her.
I get that ppl have alts... However... All of her alts are with "Family Ties Weddings"
Infact... After doing some lengthy research on these two individuals... Everyone in the group "Family Ties Weddings" is either Rob Collinson, or his lady love "Greeneyedbabe".
The thing that gets me the most is that she came by my sim on an alt... earned my trust enough for me to show her my new Venue, because she really wanted to see "MidSummers" but I has already taken it down to buid the new Venue to take it's place. I worked so hard to Re-Vamp MidSummers... I was picky, and only wanted the best possible options. She then copied my venue and is using it as her own idea on her Wedding Sim.
Mind you all... This very person and her partner in crime, have graced my sim a dozen times before I caught on to the nature of their visits.
Now, she is claiming she will degrade my company all because she got caught at her own game. REAL MATURE!
I can assure any potential customer this... My first priority is your happiness. I'm all about taking care of our couples. As long as respect is a two way street between us... There are NEVER any issues. I am not perfect by any stretch of the word (no one person is)... But, I am VERY good at what I do.
I try my best to set pettiness aside, and please our couples where I can. Even under the most extremely, stressful situations... My first and foremost priority is your happiness.
It just erks me so damn much, that us creators and business owners give so much of ourselves to SL and our businesses, and then we have ppl like this who just suck the fun right out of SL for you.
I come to SL as my escape from the RL Drama Rama Bullshit!
So many ppl say I have a bad Rep as a BITCH, because other ppl like this will degrade my company when I catch them attemptinig to copy my venues.
Doesn't matter if you own a business, or if you're trying to do your own wedding.
It's a slap in our faces when you copy us.
Why is it ppl do not grasp this concept?
I don't know...
I know I'm a hard Bitch to deal with when I catch you attempting to copy me.
Hell... I wouldn't want to be on the receiving end of my rage.
This has all just build up over 7 years of this nonsense, nonstop!
So I say to Greeneyedbabe and her partner in crime Rob Collinson... (and all of your alts)
I hope the copying was worth it.
I hope you both feel better about yourselves knowing that you copied someone else's idea.
I mean, for God's sake... I wont even shop at stores that are known for copying.
I'm hoping some of you (my readers) will feel the same way...
I just want my readers to know that should you choose to have your wedding at "Family Ties Weddings"...
They copied someone else's idea.
Till Next time,
Winter Tenenbaum
