Why do I get sucked into this when I should know better.

Windowview is a very profitable company?

With Tangible assets of zero? (90K in 2002) and shareholders funds of 4,663 (133,178 in 2002).

Profit and loss account showing a loss of £175,337 for year ending June 2003, after a loss of £46,882 in 2002.

Well that is what the accounts say!

For balance I should add that Exel Management's Accounts are now a year overdue.

Windowview's shares were/are owned by Messrs Bayly (118) Harding, L (122) Harding S (250) and Exel Management (490).

Comments please Stewart, before you say ask the Accountant can I point out that you appear to own 25% of the equity and are a director.


No comment? Not even a definition of 'profitable company'?

I recently read the following..

you may con this lot you wont con me.
first of all the code was payed it had to be but by winderview jackanory

............................

Who is this lot?
As far as I was aware there are about 5 regulars on this thread, hardly a lot me thinks..

What the Fccc are you on about anyway.
This is not even English. First you said it was not paid for, then it was.. then your English fails you..

Stop ranting girl and catch your breath..

Rest assured Windowview did pay for the Code in full and therefore totally owns it. Exel then sold their shares in Windowview so they no longer own any of the code.

I am a shareholder of Windowview and make no secret of it.

And so I have to keep saying like a scratched record...
Why dont you just write it down and stick it on yer monitor...
I really don't know what you guys are trying to discover or uncover.
Did I mention our weapon of mass destruction or was our software of mass consumption that upset you. :wink:

Anyway I really have to go as we are going through busy patch at the moment.

Our forum is considerably busier than yows. :mrgreen:





no Stewart I said you hadnt paid for it. you pay for [edited by admin] all except uses old unsalable stock, you are a con artist.

so how does your companies lose money?

by paying its directors inflated wages , you coulnt make it up.

It was after all myself that brokered the deal to purchase the code of Mike. It was only then that we discovered that there were various financial additions to the total that Richard was not aware of. How could I forget it. :cry: :cry:


Oh this is fun! It's amazing the BS that gets stated on this site when no-one who was actually involved first hand is here to counter it. Stewart, that's all pure fiction. It's time we stuck to historical facts.

You ask, "How could I forget it?" You seem to forget a lot. Do you forget that you asked myself and Russell Main to work full time on your code, and you promised me you'd be able to pay me when I sent in the bills and that Windowview was "awash with cash". Then, when I sent in the bills, I get told that you can't pay because the Windowview bank account is actually empty.

And it wasn't that you lied to me that you had plenty money in Windowview. No, I knew that was true as Russ and I were pretty much the only creditors of Windowview. So where had all the money gone that had been received by Windowview for Midas sales and rental? Of course we know the answer to that, don't we? You paid out over £50,000 in dividends to the shareholders so that when our bills arrived there was no money left in the account to pay us.

That's a really dirty trick, Stewart, and you know it. I'm no business law expert but I'd like to know if it's legal. I *do* know that you're only allowed to pay out dividends on profits. You knew that we had been working flat out for you and you know our daily rates. You knew that you owed us for the work we had done, so to siphon off all the cash as dividend payments knowing that you were about to receive large invoices for work already completed is something that should be investigated if you ask me.

Now, since you were a director of Diplomat UK Ltd which is now in liquidation, it's your duty to supply the liquidator's name and address on request. So could you please reply with the name and address of the Diplomat liquidator as I'd like to speak to them.

As far as the Scott code was concerned we have totally rewritten the booking screen the despatch screen and the data storage mechanisms, there really is little left of the original code.

More nonsense. You don't have the technical knowledge to engage in discussion at this level Stewart. You claim that anyone looking at Navigator will see that it's completely different from the original Midas. Well I've had a look at Navigator and I'm amazed at how *little* has changed from Midas. You've added a lot of frills around the edges but the core code is the same. The tell-tale signs are all there. For example, the security hole introduced 2 years ago by Jason in the original derivative of Midas is still there in Diplomat Navigator on the version I looked at a couple of weeks ago. It allows anyone to circumvent the login system and get into the system without a password. Or are you suggesting that Jason and Matt rewrote the bugs when they rewrote Navigator! :D

You claim that you have "rewritten the data storage mechanisms". More BS. I can see that Navigator still uses exactly the same object repository written by myself, based on Borland VCL object streaming with my additional Bayer+ tree indexing code. If that weren't the case, it wouldn't be possible to do a quick analysis of the Navigator data file to find the additional properties you've added to the Midas data object classes, which in turn reveals what areas of the system you've been working on. It's all there in plain view for any "fully qualified Delphi expert" to see. Again, this shows you've been telling stories, Stewart. Unlike you, I can and will back up all that I'm saying. If you like, I'll post details of the additional properties here on this forum.

But credit where it's due. I hear that Matt has spent a year working on voice recording and statistical breakdown of calls received. The graphing looks nice.

Oh, that reminds me. I'm curious about the raster map data that you're using in Navigator on a couple of sites. They look for all the world like screen dumps from a well-known online UK street mapping web site. I'm sure this isn't true, as it would be a blatant contravention of their terms of use and no-one would be stupid enough to do that. So where did you get your raster maps?

And is it true that you only have 2 sites that are using GPS in the whole of England? If not, which sites use it? Does it do autoplotting or does it only show where vehicles are on one of these dubious raster maps?

Finally, is it true that Peter Roback left Diplomat or did you ask him to leave? And if he left why did he leave? And is it true that director's salary cheques have been bouncing again? Ouch! :D

Apologies to all. The previous post as "Guest" was from me. I didn't realise I wasn't logged in.

Hi

looks very much to me as everyone, who has or does work for this company, has to be enticed by Directors titles and huge salaries, just to stay and put up with this c**p. Alas they never seem to get paid.

Further to which, they appear to generally be no good at their jobs either.

Strutting around saying I am a Director gets nobody anywhere.

I am appauled by this nonsense. Went straight to the Employment Tribunal, what a great bunch they are.

I received a letter from that man who's name begins with a B yesterday, threaterning to take me to court for posting lies about Diplomat on public forums.

Could not understand what the hell they were talking about, came on line and saw it all. Must be baiting me I guess.

Alex, I have not posted any of that s**t, check it out, not my IP address ok? Or is your name really Jason or Stewart Alex?

This all looks a bit too familiar to me, Forum with the same layout, postings being added under the name of someone who did not post it, postings being deleted or altered.

I do agree with quite a lot of what is being said though, It would appear to be true.

I have no idea who all the people are that money is owed to, what I do know is I was not prepared to take large sums of other peoples money to line the pockets of the few, and not to be able to deliver the goods as they did not exist.

Stewart's one liner Diplomat delivers, should read Diplomat will take your money and run.

This is a posting from me , Lynda, I wrote this, so Bernard sue me ok, just remember you can not sue someone for telling the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth.

Any proir to this were just a figment of someones imagination, you lot certainly know how to rile a person don't you?

Yes I agree they had me fooled for a time. But that does not make me a stupid cow either Peter, so you can lay off.

I unlike you have a prosporous future outside the clutches of "the mob."

Want to sling mud Peter? well here is some, you could not sell s**t, the customers hated your unprofesionalism, and you.

You never turned up when you should have and you did not have a scoobie how radio worked how is that for starters? Has a bit more credibility than she's a silly cow does it not?

Well that is me done, for now anyway.

The customer with the 50K to spend, sorry I have no idea who you are, I had a large number of customers who had that sort of money to spend, please do not feel offended concerned.

So I guess now I do not have to contact you and let you know what is going on then? You should be able to figure it out for yourslves now shouldn't you?

Take care Lynda,
The real one with my name spelt correctly, better alter all the postings with it spelt wrong if you have any hope of pinning those ones on me.

I think the last count on the phb website was that there was just over a million similar sites to this.
