ABT went down many times and no one took the time to make a backup. Again, I don't know this for sure, but it sounds like that was Dave's responsibility. The site went down. That last crash was huge, ABT was down for a really long time. You don't expect apoppin to be frustrated by that? I don't know all the ins and outs of who was responsible for what or who's fault any of this was, but that's what it looks like to me. And now you want Dave to sue Mark? For what? Because the host crashed and apoppin left? People are allowed to leave a business partnership, it happens every day.
I really didn't want to come out and say this because I didn't want to offend Dave, but you just won't let it go, Rollo. The crash wasn't really Dave's fault, either, it was the host. My one point is that someone really should have kept a backup.
That is nearly spot on except you left the part where the back ups were being done by Mark's friend Mario who was doing most of the webmaster work and is still doing webmaster work for Mark. The site crashed on previous hosts and Mario had back ups so why would I think any different with the host that crashed on December 11th? Turns out that time he said he had a back up while he actually did not. I had last taken a full back up in August which is what I brought the site back up with as best I could on yet another new host.
