You say Simone is "talking through" Prok, maybe she is, maybe she isn't, but there seems to be a hostility directed at her simply because Prokofy is on "her side" and some assumption of the rightness of Lala because of what? She is your friend? Simone is also people's friend.

I'm really done with this now.

Has anyone heard any direct public comments from Simone herself? I haven't. I don't blame her for that either.

Without that, we have even *less* knowledge about how much of what Prokofy is saying is true.

The worst thing that can be said about Simone that all the parties which are talking agree about, is that she may not have paid a bill and then won't talk about it, which is hardly a harsh accusation.

But I know what I *can* see for myself, and what I can see for myself are the blog and forum posts from Lala and her staff. None of these people look ready to responsibly handle money in an online business.

There are serious rules about this stuff, imposed directly by the bank processing the funds - rules and procedures which are to be followed. Now if you're processing transactions via PayPal, Lindens and funny money, it doesn't matter.

But if you plan to take credit cards for three digit figures I do suggest you sit down with the likes of Wells Fargo or Paymentech and see just how friggin' strict they are about merchants handling money, oh yeah.

LL has had its moments but they've never made me afraid for having a debit card on file with them.
