They are almost certainly screwed should they lose this at all. No company is going to risk getting dragged into a lawsuit because those ladies tarred and feathered someone who was for all intents and purposes innocent of everything except being more popular than them.

Oh no doubt I have personally done a head count myself from funimation who will be on the chopping block due to this litigation not just the people involved in the suit but the ones who are virtue signalling like the bleating sheep they are. The total thus far is up to 38 people with each VA coming out or member of funi it adds to the counter.
And as my retort to Skyefall those two companies you are buddy buddy with will be shutdown before 2022 after being absorbed by its corporate parents. Vic may not be voice actor by trade but the internet can still give him work and he has YouTube channel all he has to do is monetize it then he'll be back into cons not just as a Voice actor but a youtube personality.
Check mate.

Part of me feels like suggesting that they're fighting back to protect their crumbling narrative is giving them too much intellectual credit. The sheer incompetence I've seen suggests to me that beyond their maliciousness, they're largely just ignorant. Thus regardless of the outcome and being exposed, these people will still find a way to scream into the megaphone so to speak.

I guess to be fair though I'm not really aware of older cases of people going on the offensive to beat this type of bullshit. Vic getting crowdfunded for this is admittedly somewhat novel.

Yep. The idea of somebody fighting back against a #MeToo claim is alien to the SJWs. They expected a Harvey Weinstein model of accuse, expose, fire and blacklist, offender fades into obscurity, and move to the next one to clean up their industry. In reality, A Minnesota man with a penchant for whiskey got a man in touch with a lawyer that takes no shit from anybody and got the attention of a bunch of nobodies who do the work of law firms and even the intelligence agencies of some countries for nothing but shits and giggles, and the SJWs suddenly found themselves what happens when you fuck with a man who's got nothing to lose. The culture war has hit its Stalingrad.

You can tell we're dealing with alpha-weebs on the other side. "THIS ISN'T EVEN MY BULLSHIT'S FINAL FORM!"



It's more telling that this is where their mindset is at.

"Well, at least we destroyed him. Even if he wins this he's not coming back to Funi or RT, and other studios (since we'll be whisper networking them) won't hire him either."



Spoiler alert: As Nick and Ty mentioned on stream last night, the SECOND they can, Funimation is firing Monica, Jamie, their Social Media guy, and probably a few others. They won't do it during the lawsuit (as doing so would harm them by admitting wrongdoing), but expect some MAJOR chimpouts in the future about that. 6th Bulma!

(Sony themselves are going to purge Funimation, as discussed before. They already have a localization studio -- Aniplex. Thanks to this lawsuit, every single person at Funimation made themselves not only redundant, but a liability.)

What a greasy, fat-assed ho Skye is. And all those replies are tinged with intellectual disability. The one power ranger saying Vic's been axed by so many conventions and the only ones he's going to are small-town or didn't have good reputations to begin with. His "va career is over."

Yeah, just keep telling yourself that as you try to ignore the fucking lines that form in front of his table. How fucking embarrassing for those other loser voice actors that he continues to win even as they try to kill him and declare victory.

Most people don't put up with the bullshit of fat lying whores. Lying ON fat whores, though, could be a good time. Guess we could ask Skye's husband what that's like and how it feels to see his wife whoring herself out constantly. Can't believe the guy hasn't Epsteined himself.

There is something i dont understand about the TCPA/SLAPP. Why are the parties allowed to deposed vic and then put forth a TCPA? I mean BHBH got to depose Moronica which is fair but how come funi and marchi have not been deposed but have been allowed to depose vic as well?

It just seems weird that they get to depose vic and Vic doesnt get to depose them. Shouldnt TCPA be 1. Filed before any party is deposed or 2. filed after BOTH/all party are deposed.

Funimation was the first to put a TCPA forward. I'm guessing their lawyer realized that Monica and Jamie were just screwing around looking for dirt on Vic.

They still did their part in Vic's deposition. Curiously, however, I don't recall them actually using anything from Vic's deposition in their motion.

Probably noticed that there was nothing of value to use from his deposition.

Or they weren't petty goons like Rial and Toye.

Or they relied on them to do the dirty work. I'm spitballing a bit.

My theory there was co-ordination. The best scenario for KV is for all of them to get off. The next best scenarios are for Marchi and Ron (any of the others for that matter) to get burned and Funi get off. March & Ron can get their relatively small savings easily replaced by Funi over time as an under the table agreement. This is small compared to what Funi stands to lose.

So i suspected Moronica went first to mine for info that Funi could use in its TCPA as well as defame Vic some more as a punitive measure for Vic defending himself.

 

[Iron Hamster]

Not for the motion but for expecting to have their costs/fees for that covered. There was no TCPA-related reason for that and it was completely unnecessary expense they inflicted on themselves.

I think TY could argue that this is precisely why this case was brought and the defs action prove their intent to defame.
Imagine getting bit in the ass with your own TCPA.

Vic the Dick strikes again!

Ok but to be real, this is probably Ayres isn't it.

Could be weaver. He is rather fond of his ale/beer/mead.

I would love to see Denbow explain something, anything of the ongoing of inside that company. What was this galaxybrained logic? Was she part of it or the mere carrier of ill news....She has not said a peep has she. Staying very quiet. I like that despite the mess that is the defendants, the ONLY one who hasn't splurged nonsense onto the internet is pretty much Denbow.

I think if the TCPA gets struck down, they'll settle so she doesn't have to get on a stand and say she never really investigated anything.

Have any of these alleged victims that allegedly got texts from Vic looking for action, ever explained how he got all their phone numbers to even be texted by him if everybody knew for years and years what an alleged creep/predator he was?

Dominique Skye was in those secret Discord servers, right? She's just trying to "bolster the faith." Two major stories fell apart this week. Even the most hard core believers are probably having doubts.

She just wants to remind people that they won. She's talking too early considering the lawsuit is in its early phase.

The more I thought about this, the more likely this is. Casey Erick made a promise not to file the TCPA until after depositions, not Funimation. Since Casey screwed his clients over, Funimation was forced to wait til Ron and Monica were deposed.

Edit: clarity.

Keep hearing this, but Casey only promised to not file a TCPA until after the depositions. He did not promise to not file one. Nor would the judge make him promise that. The problem was him filing it immediately after Vics depo, staying all other depos.

I'll go edit for clarity.

Didn't Jamie, in particular, break some kind of legal rules or something early on?,

She pushed the limit with her constant dodging but she didn’t do anything illegal per say. Though I’m sure her constant dodging then joking about it on Twitter will earn a raised eyebrow from the Judge.

After all, according to her good buddy Ron, they had nothing to hide, right Jamie?

I think if they could prove the dodging was intentional, to the point where it had to be zip tied in a baggie, that’s gonna be a body blow.

Ty explained the other night that deposing before TCPA is rare and unusual. TCPA is probably more akin to an initial challenge of jurisdiction, except that it's an assertion of freedom of speech. Plaintiff must show a prima facie case why Defendant wasn't merely exercising their right to free speech. This would normally be done without discovery, so mostly only the evidence that brought the cause of action would be brought to bear.

The other Defendants didn't make it to depo likely because their timelines started later than MoRon's due to delays in service of process. Ty would have to answer that, though.

There's no legal requirement to make serving you easy. That's why the court just allows the documents to be attached to your door and consider the person properly served from that point onward. However, just because it won't have any effects as far as the court case is concerned doesn't mean that it can't be used to mock her on Twitter, and she spergs out pretty easily.

>got a 9 year old and an almost 6 year old
aren't those actually her husband's ex-wife's kids, not her own kids?

any human shield in a storm.....

 

[FailedStudentOfTheKarmaSu]

I think there has been a misunderstanding the past few pages.
Pretty sure Marchie has been deposed and her depo just hasn't been released yet.
Correct me if I'm wrong though.

Edit: I've realized that i was incorrect on this matter. She has not been deposed yet.
