Weeb Wars / AnimeGate / #KickVic / #IStandWithVic / #vickicksback - General Discussion Thread

It's purely idiotic to assume that Chupp would have granted such a request. He rejected everything every time there was a request made - or just ignored it entirely - because it was just too much effort for him to actually put any work in. He infamously refused to strike any affidavit for hearsay from the defendants and then refused to even rule on whether the 1st or 2nd petition was live. Ty making such a request would have wasted money, resulted in Chupp either denying it or ignoring the filing entirely, and then put them exactly where they are now. Ty aimed for 'slightly higher than necessary for TCPA' because he was attempting to use the warchest judiciously, considering that there were many more people who needed to be pulled in once they had the discovery to cover it (as Ty said, they were very close to TCPA level for Sabat but decided to leave him out for safety's sake) - his only problem was that Chupp didn't understand the standard and had no interest in doing his job at all.
This is terrible trial strategy. If there's something you actually need and have good cause to receive you ALWAYS make the motion. And for good reason: Denying or ignoring a motion that is supported by good cause can be reversible error. One of the many ways in which Ty screwed the pooch was not hunting down opportunities to get the judge to make a decision on record for that. Say what you want about Lemon, it was obvious that he was a litigator and Ty wasn't when the case was coming to a close and he was filing a bunch of motions/requests for clarification because that's the procedural mechanism you use to preserve the errors you want the appellate court to review. Meanwhile Ty was filing his second amended notice of vacation.
 
I'm a little late with this but I'll mess with Brian since doxing random people is fun. Challenge accepted, critters, send your lawyers and army of speds at the damn dirty kiwis.

Some guy from Critical Role and a typical wannabe Hollywood/artsy type. His Everypedia page describes how he "has been a student of theology and the human condition for much of his life, and his writings reflect the inner conflict of these two sets of ideas." How deep! He's pretty bog standard as far as this type of person goes, with the expected virtue signalling and TDS on his Twitter, and could be replaced by any other artsy white guy without anyone noticing a difference. He took a potshot at Vic and got the KickVic peanut gallery including Ron Toye all excited. Curiously, he doesn't even have 1,200 tweets in over 11 years on Twitter so either he's not a Twitter addict or he's deleted quite a few tweets in the past.

He lives with his girlfriend, actress Ashley Johnson, in this house in Burbank (archive) which is co-owned by Ashley and her mother Nancy Johnson.

He is registered in Los Angeles County as an independent. Plugging in "Foster", "11/23/1982", and his address into the Los Angeles County voter registration lookup shows us that he's registered to vote at this address listed above (unless some other guy named "Foster" with the same date of birth also lives at a place owned by a woman named Ashley Johnson) and checking the status of his vote-by-mail request shows he has requested a ballot for the election this November. Good for him!

He's totally irrelevant to Weeb Wars but apparently if the damn dirty Vicstan trolls dox Brian, this will awaken the sleeping giant that is his fanbase so in the interest of science let's see what happens.

so he's on critical role with travis and laura and tries to slag Vic.

He looks kind of cucky.
 
Dang, she's got a direct connection to that badass guitarist Jonny Lang? I think I'd engage in premarital hand holding with Ashley.
Yo, who wouldn't? She is one of the prettiest, most talented, and most respectable celebs in recent memory.
 
Euh. Gloating over doxing randos is just cringeworthy. Not because there's anything wrong with doxing, but because it's so easy to do it's like tossing a basket ball into a kid's hoop and then t-posing about it. But maybe that's just me.
It's not really gloating, as much as it's me mocking the fact that this only happened cause that Tora fatso challenged the Farms for this. He's literally a nobody, but got in this BS cause or a landwhale challenging the Farms.

As I said last time. If he did get doxxed. It's her fault.

I have only 1 objection to Laura & Travis being doxed:
How are they relevant to Weeb Wars? Unlike Brian Foster, they haven't commented on this trashfire at all.

True...would that go over to TLOU thread? Or wait until they do something related to WW?
 
A fair question. The fact that Texas doesn't have personal jurisdiction on them is not a deal killer, you just have to domesticate the order from your state in the state they reside in and depose them there. It is more time consuming to depose a foreign party, but it can be done. The process for doing so depends on what state they reside in. Because Vic never actually identified any prospective business relations we can't actually answer this question very meaningfully.
Vic didn't answer questions about prospective business relations very well in either the deposition or the hearing, but there was a list compiled by the FanCons administrator, listing 10 conventions that "withdrew invitations" and three others that "canceled appearances." This list was available February 19, 2019. I don't see where this information was ever presented. One would assume that canceled appearances would have been associated with a contract.

Meanwhile Ty was filing his second amended notice of vacation.

He may have been good at bilking clients. After all, he turned an outright victory on all counts on a single preliminary motion into $250,000+ of unrecoverable debt for his client, while Ty's bungling and loss on all counts left his client with his finances intact and costs largely if not entirely covered by money already available.

I'd frankly prefer Ty's worst results to Lemoine's best.

Ty may have lost the case again, but Lemongrab is just far more clownable.

Even assuming that Rial/Toye aren't covered by their homeowner's insurance (which is by no means a given), I'm not inclined to agree. He took a claim for $1m+ in damages and disposed of it for less than 1/4 of that while still recovering a significant chunk of the costs. He didn't do nearly the job that Marchi's lawyer did containing costs, but I don't think Marchi could have done that if she wasn't leaning heavily on the work being done by co-counsel for Funi/Rial/Toye.

Meanwhile Vic's lawyers took more than $250k in free money and turned into a $500k judgment against Vic, only a very small fraction of that has any real chance of being overturned on appeal. I know it has become de rigueur on here to downplay how difficult the TCPA is to get past largely because so many on here want badly to believe that this is coming back on appeal, but it is a cost and time amplifier that requires special tactics, none of which Ty employed.

But I think it is a mistake to compare the two at all. You don't have to choose between Ty's worst and Lemoine's best, because there are other attorneys out there, many of them quite good. I think the real question should be "could competent counsel have beat TCPA" followed by "for how much money." And I think the answers to that are "yes, by pleading more narrowly" and "for about the same that it looks like Ty charged." Ty is not a cheap attorney, and he appears to have spent a great deal of time on this case just getting up to speed on the basics of defamation and litigation 101. A competent attorney that wasn't using this case as a learning experience could have spent that same time doing something more productive. At this point even Nick appears to have no faith in Ty's ability to brief an issue, or else he wouldn't have tried to submit that damn fool amicus.
 
Its been a while since I been in this thread. One of my three favorite threads and the only one I wasnt ban from.

I now know how Vic feels.

But yikes can't believe wants going on with Nick
Wait a minute, weren't you posting in here a few days before that post...?

And what did you of all people do to get banned from the rest of the subforum?😆
