Featured on Jan 7, 2023 by Null: perhaps the most retarded idea I've ever had (Registered Agent Edition)
In 2022, due to harassment associated with the Keffals + #DropKiwiFarms deplatforming campaign, the registered agent for Lolcow LLC (incorporated in Wyoming) resigned. His/her official reason was that we briefly used DDoS-Guard out of Russia and they were scared of sanctions. However, this was an obvious copout to excuse parting ways with a client entitled to legal services.
So now I am left in a conundrum: I have no registered agent, my company will lapse in good standing without one, and I cannot receive court orders or anything in Wyoming because of it. I have tried contacting people in Wyoming and floated the idea of hiring KingCobraJFS in Casper to be my registered agent. The people in his thread are completely convinced he is incapable of handling the responsibilities of scanning mail without fucking it up, and I can't give it to normies because they will be swatted.
So I've basically discovered there are shitty 1bd houses all over the US with mortgages that are basically just twice what I pay in business services each month, and definitely lower than the business services I'd be paying for a lawyer to handle an extremely high risk business for me.
I am considering buying a small house (under Lolcow LLC) in some shithole city in either Delaware, New Mexico, Nevada, South Dakota, or Wyoming (or anywhere with 0% Corporate Capital Gains Tax and Loose Registered Agent Requirements) and putting some poor bastard that already lives in those areas in it so that the address functions as our legal operating address. The person living in this house would have several responsibilities.
1. Answer the phone.
2. Scan my mail.
3. Forward my mail if requested.
4. Handle being visited by trannies and antifa without doing anything stupid.
5. Handle being swatted by trannies pretty much constantly.
Discuss.
Q. Why not get a P.O. Box?
A. Businesses cannot be registered to a P.O. Box. You need a living, breathing person to accept servicing on behalf of your company.
Q. Why not just get a random person to do it without buying a property?
A. If a person is renting and decides to make their rental address the registered address for Lolcow LLC, they will be evicted. I either need to buy my own address or have someone who already owns a home be the registered agent and make their own home the address.
Q. Why do they have to live there?
A. The requirements for a registered agent are described such that they must "maintain a business office in Delaware that is generally open, or if an individual resident, be generally present at a designated location in this State, at sufficiently frequent times to accept service of process and otherwise perform the functions of a registered agent;".
So if it's not a house someone can live in for their basic non-duties, it must be an office I pay someone to work at, i.e. "(3) During normal business hours, if an individual, be generally present at a designated location in Delaware and if an entity have generally present at such office an officer, director or managing agent who is a natural person;"
These requirements are generally the same for every state.
Q. What are the requirements of a registered agent?
A. Be a natural person and live in the address listed for the business. With only slight deviation, that is all it takes in every state.
