Good evening everyone- to those of you leaving this run- I can only apologise and cannot deny I have continually miscalculated deadlines. As I’ve already said, sometimes it has been due to rebuilding parts for increased accuracy, sometimes it has been because I’ve simply fudged something up. Either way - I agree that I am to blame, especially for not keeping everyone thoroughly involved and updated. I guess essentially I didn’t want to show my mistakes worried that people may judge the product on those mistakes rather than the finished product and leave the run... yeah, Face palm, I think is what people say there.
Please remember apart from Crookknight, not one person has ever spoken to me personally or gave me ANY hint of thinking of leaving the run at ANY POINT.
NOW, within litrerally the last few days I’ve been dropped into over ten thousand pounds worth of debt. So when I have the same person @
ShadyP who continually sends me a PM demanding their ‘money back now!’ And the same person @
ShadyP who spitefully has tried to take away a years worth of work as he spent his time trolling through and negatively commenting on every one of my past sales threads trying his best to destroy my name, someone who I have already replied to several times explaining that I am gathering the funds to make sure the refunds clear and eventually I stop replying to him... Am I the bad guy?? Am I in the wrong? Honestly?... I don’t even know anymore.
@
Heartstopper thank you for your PM, I accept your apology and I sincerely apologise to you for allowing you to feel as if you had ‘been stabbed in the back.’ I can only assure you that I did not intend that. I have wanted this project to meet every deadline I have set, ask yourself why wouldn’t I? But at every turn it’s kicked me in the balls, I kicked back harder but it’s taken a ridiculous amount of time. I would have never started if I had known I’d still be sanding the bloody thing every day a year later. But doesnt the fact that I won’t stop until everyone that has paid me has the best armor I can make only emphasise the fact that I’m trying to look after my customers over myself?
@
Crookknight- my heart goes out to anyone who loses their job, especially when as you do, they have dependent people in their life. I will be refunding you also but I’d really love - down the line if we could trade a set of our FOTK armor for your Trooper Packs?
@EVERYONE who is sticking with me- again, I can’t thank you enough, I will be working my ass off to get this to you as quickly as I can.
@
bigkilo- thank you, I’m glad you love it- getting the best quality items to my customers is my greatest concern- any issues, don’t hesitate to contact me.
@
Empire - with the receipt I have although its the one that hasn’t got a tracking number on, it has all the other information of the order date, time etc. I have been informed over the phone if I take it back to the post office I dispatched your order from they may be able to prove it has not been delivered and seeing as it has been over 10 working days from expected delivery I can process a claim. Could you please forward me details of you PayPal payment as I can’t see it anywhere on the account and will need to be able to prove the value. Regardless the next set out is a replacement for you.
To everyone who has opened a PayPal claim, I am sorting out the funds, as soon as I have access to them (any day- possibly tomorrow) the refunds will be processed. Given the scale of the claims and the fact that everyone has decided to put forward a claim at the same time ???!!!!! I’m sure I can be forgiven for the fact that it’s taking a couple of days- the banks don’t work the weekends and it’s only Tuesday please remember this.
Next, and possibly most importantly of all if anyone on the run thinks that they have some concerns over staying on this run, or about anything involved in this build at all- you need to simply talk to me about it, express your concerns, and we will work together for the best solution.
Can everyone who is OFF the run now just wait for your refund it won’t take much longer, and let that be the end of it- I do not have the time to read through pages of repetitive BS or to message people who aren’t on the run simply repeating myself- I’m too busy actually working and building things for those who support me.
Thank you, and Id like to also apologise to the RPF as a whole for allowing this to happen, I love this site and hope you will allow me to continue working here and learn from this experience.
Good night, God bless.
