Xavier you have some nerve trying to say Frank stole anything from you or made you loose any money. You made a deal with Payday Loan for shares in AVC in exchange for Lucia Bay. You proceeded to kill that share price by not understanding how exchanges work by selling off 1 million shares at market price. This caused AVC to tumble to .02 per share. When the dust settled. Frank returned your regions, paid the tier and transfer fees, and you still ended up with your full shares in AVC which it ends up never cost you anything. I myself lost money in AVC’s recent collapse. We gave it a run to pull it back, but with virtually no assets and a share price that could never return to where it originated the attempt was like walking a cliff’s edge.

Did anyone else receive an email from Frank Corsi aka Jasper Tizzy? I did, welcoming me to join him on Central Grid. Be wary of Frank Corsi. If you go to http://www.centralgrid.com Corsi is Mr Grid on centralgrid despite lies by Monkey Canning and Mike31 Dawes denying that fact.

Central Grid is just another ploy by Corsi to take you all for your money.

Well, it looks like a month after this happens, everybody stops talking about it. I suppose you got away with what you got away with, Jasper. I actually know that you visit this site and the SL Reports site, regularly (at least daily). I’m sure that you’re probably floating around using another avatar name, these days, but we’ll probably never find out what it is, unless you screw up and tell somebody.

So much for quitting the game, eh? Well, I guess I can’t say too much about that, since I’ve said that in the past, too. I can say that I didn’t have to recreate myself to hide from my past, though.

I’ll let you know when I’m in town… maybe we can meet up at TJ Cinnamons or Java Haute. I’d expect you to buy me a cup, though.

To sum it up:

AVC is restarting from scratch and it will be listed over at the Vstex.
CGI is merging with BNT
KFM shareholders were so far awarded a small dividend. Future has to be seen.

That’s it. Anything else, I don’t know.

It has been some days and I haven’t heard anything anymore about the whole situation.
Does someone have some more news ? Does someone has his RL info …
If so, please let me know … I am from Belgium but I will go to the USA if I have to, to beat the crap out of him and put him 2 metres down under. Thanks.

“If it walks like a duck, talks like a duck, it’s a duck”. Jasper is a crook plain and simple. He coerced people into investing in his company and his bank, takes all the funds in The Bank and disappears and disconnects his phone # so he cannot be reached. His actions, or his inactions, speak much louder than his words or his excuses. To take peoples money and then remind them that this is a game, is insulting. We did not give him monopoly money. If your intentions were good Jasper, then give everyone back their money. What is your excuse now?

Well I think there has to be a transaction history trail of who has or had the money in “The Bank” - and SL should be able to investigate into “the parties” named and find out who transferred Lindens to who, or who still has those Lindens in their account, and I think SL should help us retrieve the money from whoever is responsible that retains the Lindens. Someone has to take responsibility for “The Bank” there is way too many customers and way too much Lindens to just disappear and no one knows where it went.

And I hope that the money from “The Bank” was NOT used to attain all that land that was talked about.

Yes, I noticed (last night) that one of the other domains that was no longer working and was there at the time I wrote this post was The Linden Bank site. I guess I wasn’t aware if that site also was used for the ATM machines. The-Bank.info (which I’m not sure was “ever” used) is also owned by Jasper/Frank.

I talked a lot with Jasper about business things and what he always said to me was that he was going to stay in SL to become the biggest bankt etc. He was not going to leave suddenly and do those things that happpened also with Ginko. I put all my trust in him and I had the feeling I had a good relationship with him. I talked some times with him on skype etc. I had then 2,200,000 L$ on his bank but now he also took the website down that controls the atm machines so at this moment my balance has been brought down to O L$ !!! So I hope in one way or the other things can still be arranged. Duckman Sands

On September 13 our CEO got an IM from Jasper Tizzy, over SL.

At least it was from Jasper Tizzy account, for we don’t know who the person at the keyboard was.

The IM was pretty short:

“Hello - I have sold my business to PatrickJ Ah - please move all of my shares in all of my companies to him - ty”

That happened out of the blue and honestly speaking while the IM appeared to be legitimate at Vstex we’re not used to move large chunks of shares for 3 different companies. Not like that.

So yes, technically Jasper Tizzy asked to transfer his shares out to a different person, but we feel he did it the wrong way.

On September 14 we halted trading for AVC, CGI, KFM in order to have them go through proper transfer procedures, but nor Jasper Tizzy nor anybody from his side has been ever available for that.

We’re not responsible for this, anyway we’ll do everything we can to save what can be saved.

Well Jasper….. You did it all badly.

You should have made official announcements of what was going on, and done a proper hand over.

Patrick is claiming that he has no shares of your and that you didnt give him any money.

You also handed over to someone who doesnt have everyones best interests at heart, is only interested in CGI, and simply wants to sell it off and fook all the residents.

Now, failing, and problems are understandable, no one blames you for that, but the fallout from your actions on leaving was created by you and is unacceptable.

You ran off with Springboards pre-ipo cash of 500,000l leaving them and the investors stranded.

Monkey Corp and SL Investors bank have put a package together and have saved Springboard Magazine.

And I intend to make a hostile take over bid for CGI and AVC, to protect the interest of all the share holders and the residents.

You should have come to me Jasper, or atleast someone else that actually gave a damn.

I put alot of trust in you and am bittrerly dissapointed, you could have handled this alot better.

Sincerely

Monkey Canning

Additional information has been added to the main post. Posting in the comments, as well:

ADDED: Now (Sept. 22, 2007) it looks like some of the web sites have been taken down, including the one that looked like the “main hub” (because most of the registrant information for the other domains is using the name “Private Web Communities, Inc”) for the others, called Private Web Communities. It was there just a couple days ago. Why are you pulling your sites down, Frank? Are you quitting that game, too?

“with over $600,000 we take in at the datacenter, I don’t think” you’ll see a problem.

That’s more than L$147 million, Jasper. Getting these people paid back shouldn’t be a problem, right?

Putting this all on PatrcikJ and saying “Its a game read sl TOS money has no value, it is a limited usage you have to use the fictional money” makes it sound like you have no intention of that, though.

Nobody is “picking on you” for a failure. I know what I would have done if I was in your shoes.

You said “This started as a fun game to play, and became a fulltime job, and now the hacklers want to pick on me for this LOL”. When you open a business in SL, it becomes a full-time job. You knew that from the start. When you’re dealing with things that belong to other people, even if it is “limited use fictional money”, you have a responsibility. And now you’re laughing it off because people are “picking on you”… come on.

I have looked “deeper into the real story” and posted the facts, as I saw them. I also stated that somebody might be able to “explain away” certain things. The only thing that you decided to “explain away is the location of the servers that I found by saying “Maybe the ip block is registered in chicago, but routers on the backbone can move ip blocks”. Since tracert is able to tell us the exact location of an IP address (not the block), I don’t think that explaination holds up, either.

You didn’t even try to explain away anything else that was found. Because of that, I feel that you came into SL with the intention of doing what you did. I also feel that , by the way you’ve responded so far, that you have no intention of doing the right thing.

ADDED: Stop pulling this “why me” attitude, saying that people are picking on you. Put yourself in the shoes of the people that trusted you and stop acting like a victim.

Jasper, I tried to contact you a lot of times now. I had around 2,200,000 L$ in the bank and its all gone now. After all we talked about trust and business … I just can’t believe you did that without just leaving a simple note to me. If you say that you have been honest, then you can look me in the eyes or just talk or mail me so that we can look for a solution. You know how to reach me. Duckman Sands

Of course you lie…..It’s all my money i have in the world in the bank….690 000 L$…I want it back…..Patrick told me he had nothing to do with THE BANK…………

I need my money, it’s all for me…. you stole all !!

I did decide to quit this game, and i didnt run off with it. I gave all my stocks to Patrickj not just CGI. Read what i said to tobia. Pat has now said he only wants CGI LOL that is where the assets are.

There was money in the bank Pat took it, the land from bank invested money was in cgi groups as CGI was the rental / property management company / group

As tobia had told you the 100% truth and you had to push for more information that wasnt said. Maybe you need to look deeper into the real story and not to make up stuff that may not be correct.

Quest is a tier 1 backbone provider. We connect to them in Tampa Florida not chicago. Maybe the ip block is registered in chicago, but routers on the backbone can move ip blocks anywhere in the ASN.

The facts are this is a game. I did make many people money over the past 6 months, never was my intentions to see anyone loose anything. I did the best I could as one guy can. I gave what was left to patrick yes 220,000 + sqm land and some cash. Not alot, but not zero maybe 2 million L$ at the low land rates - he could sell it off and pay back some of the investors, or keep it all going.

If i didnt say hell with this GAME and turn it off, I would have to run with what was left to make the best of it all.

Maybe if…Land was still up in value and we can continue to rent property for the same rates, things would have been great. But bad land rates, investors selling off avc and cgi cheap, were all part of the failure of this.

I am out of this game and Patrick will do what he feels is right.

To pick on me for a failure and what I feel was a safe hand off of remaining assets to Patrick, is not cool. Try to be in my shoes and see how far you would have gone. I lasted past many SL issues and managed to pay everyone and keep building. This started as a fun game to play, and became a fulltime job, and now the hacklers want to pick on me for this LOL

Its a game read sl TOS money has no value, it is a limited usage you have to use the fictional money.

Some days ago I was put in charge of dealing with communication and public relations. Previously I was not a Vstex employee.

Currently I’m helping out with the Vstex website English translation for the new areas being built and the new texts. At a later stage I’ll run after old translations suffering from mispellings and plain errors.

We’re getting there and we’ll be working to ensure that proper, timely communication will reach everyone interested in us.
