For the benefit of all of you who have taken an interest in the evolution and development of "Central Grid," I feel compelled to publicly announce today that I have retained counsel to initiate legal action against Mr. Frank Corsi for multiple acts of alleged misconduct, including but not limited to his continuing libel and slander of my good name and reputation.
Despite recent postings suggesting that I knowingly entered into a part ownership agreement with Mr. Corsi and others in the Central Grid venture, the truth is that my involvement with this project was based upon numerous false representations made by Corsi and others. These false representations were specifically designed to induce me to invest my own personal funds in the Central Grid project. Once Mr. Corsi had control over my funds, he continued to engage in deceptive conduct. While he continues to weave a story suggesting that I left Central Grid voluntarily, the truth is that I was used, manipulated and forced out, losing my investment in the process.
I left my part ownership position at Central Grid and DO NOT endorse it in any manner. There is much more to be told and disclosed about this story and my role as a victim of Mr. Corsi's illegal conduct, but upon advice of counsel I am constrained to only report, for now, as much information as is contained in this statement.
Interested parties, however, should stay tuned for continuing developments regarding Mr. Corsi's activities, not only with respect to Central Grid, but also his notorious role as Jasper Tizzy in Second Life and much more.
I want to also take this opportunity to thank so many friends and supporters who have stood by me throughout this terrible ordeal, and to encourage others who believe they have been defrauded by Frank Corsi to come forward with their stories and join our cause to show those who would take advantage of others in the virtual world are subject to the laws of the real world and will pay real consequences for the damages caused by their greed.

Regards,

Barb (Barb Carson in Second Life)

First rule of legal maneuvers: you don't publicly announce it until it's actually filed, and even it's through your counsel.

Second rule of legal maneuvers: posting about it on the internet is like saying you're all talk no trousers.

third rule of legal maneuvers: we do not talk about legal maneuver fight club.

Aimee Weber · 09-11-2008, 11:13 PM

I'm with LF on this. The very fact you announced your impending legal action on the forums makes me nearly 100% certain you haven't consulted a lawyer and you aren't taking any legal action.

Welcome to the SLU community, by the way.

Colette Meiji · 09-11-2008, 11:17 PM

Well it could be small claims ...

Bams · 09-11-2008, 11:20 PM

Poor Frathy. Who didn't see this one coming?

So basically, your first and only post in this forum is to reach out and grab an audience for your upcoming soap opera?

Ok then.

Ann Launay · 09-11-2008, 11:30 PM

Why are we supposed to care again? It's like a drive-by drama llamaing...

Bams · 09-11-2008, 11:35 PM

I agree we already did a pretty good job of outing Frathy in this thread here...

Centralgrid.com: any info ?

Nothing new in this threads OP.

Which is like writing your name on a bunch of papers and then tossing them into a furnace and hoping it will spit out money.

I wish I could figure out how to do that I could use some extra mulah!

Maybe the furnace will spit out Z$ and we can exchange them for Lindens.

Hey, I have my popcorn.

If nothing else this has the makings of a shout match and the return of Frank to defend himself.

Barb.. keep us posted.

Yes. Originally Cathy Rockstar but later Mr. Centralgrid. I believe Mr. Centralgrid is his in world name too. Also Maltos Sosa (another alt) has a presence in CG and his profile says it is a shared account and that you never know who you will get when contacting it.

See, when people tell me things like research shit or I cannot know what I am talking about unless I am there.. I take it seriously and pick up on the challenge. I have been silently flying around CG and seeing what it is about. I am stealthy like that.

I was going to review it on my blog.. but was not sure what angle to take. So, pics attatched.

Vengence Opus · 09-12-2008, 01:31 AM

isn't central grid something out of Tron?
