LOL not with you.

The Urban Gecko does not want to sue you, and if their attorney had a lick of sense he or she would advise just shutting up, putting their time, energy, and resources into improving their business processes, and NOT suing you. You are a minor with no assets; in court they would be seen as the bad corporation attacking a child. Even if they won they wouldn't collect a dime, and it's a big stretch to assume that they could win given that the content in your videos was the truth.

Then there are the other issues with their business that have been dragged out for public viewing as a result of this thread, such as problems tracking which animals have sold and which have not, shipping incorrect animals, ripping off Pete Kahl a few years back, etc. they really want this whole fiasco to die a quick death. The fastest way to get that done was to bully you into removing the videos.

You can put them back up if you choose.

I want to but I REALLY don't want a lawsuit. I think more people should know that they're threating to sue me but I didn't want to cause more drama than needed. I mean if they think what I was saying was false why didn't the make a public statement trying to show the truth? Jumping right to a lawsuit makes them seem guilty

Has Urban Gecko threatened to sue Fauna Classified over this thread or do they only target minors?

He has harmed the reputation of his own company by his past and now current actions. All you are doing is sharing truths. I wouldn't have removed anything or listened, but I can understand and respect why you did it. Threatening a minor with a lawsuit is disgusting.

I apologize. I did not realize you are 17, and I think I came across as unnecessarily snarky.

Read what Melinda wrote. Do a few minutes research into defamation, and see that if what you are saying is true, it is not defamatory.

I think what I'm going to do is leave all the videos down, but just make a very calm video explaining why they were supposedly going to sue me. I think that will be enough evidence for everyone about who they are.

I would LOVE to see TUG try and sue for defamation, nothing you have written or posted to youtube is considered defamatory in my opinion. You have calmly explained your opinion regarding the gecko and why you believe it is not the same as the one you ordered. FAR too often, Lawsuits are threatened when the person they are threatening the lawsuit has themselves conducted themselves improperly. just look at the ty park thread...…….

Sadly, I believe that this misrepresentation and fraud is VERY COMMON in the gecko industry.
