Seems your’e just here to make shit up and milk arguments. US is #34 on the CIA Fact Book list of countries by life expectancy. Japan is #3. Australia is #7. That’s by your own CIA.
I only need one account. It’s not hard to figure out that people generally think you’re a shithead here.
You may have the last word…
oops, accidentally used one of your other accounts for thumbs upping and and downing to reply huh? better luck next time
I’m assuming thats a note to self
A simple search would have given you pause before posting such utter bullshit.
actually if you combine the attempted murder rate and the murder rate Australia tops the US as do many other countries – its hard to kill someone with a knife but on pure desire to murder most countries top the US. As for health care and the teabaggers – well you see after we cut ties with the Brits we didn’t get to ship all of our bad seeds off to a whole other continent, though the US still boasts the second highest healthy life expectancy rate behind only Japan
Next you’ll tell us that Australia is a warmongering nation who tortures detainees, has a massive murder rate, no national healthcare and a teabagger cult who prays for the death of any brown-skinned Primeminister.
I’ll settle for a backwards video game rating system any day.
Kind of hard to make a profit selling video games in a country that censors the living fuck out of every game it can get its hands on. I have a feeling if they made a game about deporting all immigrants and declaring the glory of the white race Australia would be all for it though
He has already failed to appear at cases against him and has fled the country. Extradition is how you get someone to appear in court when they’re in another country refusing to return.
They could sue in Ireland. Not sure how friendly Ireland is to foreign plantiffs suing companies that nominal provide jobs to the Irish people.
Thats seems a bit excessive, even still why couldn’t the tax office do that ? The tax office and the employees are creditors – if the company has gone into bankruptcy.
What extradition, the company has gone bankrupt, it owes the tax office money and it owes wages and super.
Nothing to extradite, if the bankruptcy court will hand over the ip as payment or even if it say ip was handed to company as they weren’t being paid. its theirs.
Lie in wait till the company uses it and then sue them
Force them into bankruptcy, and have the judge issue an action to reclaim the servers and IP. Taking them to another company like this is an illegal conveyance.
This requires MONEY. 50 thousand dollars, in an Australian jurisdiction alone, just to get an injunction.
This is true, but on every occasion the Cops asked to turn the camera off – they also threatened to Sieze it. I know that’s illegal, but they couldn’t take the chance that the evidence would be erased by the Police.
Why are the police so against being filmed. They are public servants. They have no right to demand a camera be switched off. Could it be because the police are their? allies? Nothing to see here people. Move along. The system is working just as its meant to. Filter the taxes and wealth of the working class into the hands of foreign capitalists. And our public servants are here to actively prevent the carriage of justice. Nice one!
Dear god!!! I worked at IZ as an intern on 2008… I’m shocked to see this!!!
A few months after I left, IZ closed the Brazil studio where I worked because of the crisis… But I never knew things were getting so out of hand… damn…
My best wishes to all of you guys at IZ Perth. I saw how hard you worked on the game.
Cheers
GEERS is your friend. Ask the liquidator for your records so you can make a claim. Super isn’t covered though.
Dude, I suggest more aggression next time you interview. because he’s a manager, he’s trained with press interviews. “no comment” or silence isn’t an indication of anything, and it’s what many managers are coached to do.
I’m sorry for your loss, but you have to take this to the government level, stop work asap and get a geers form. Be advised that the geers payment does not cover super/401k, but it helps by getting the work time back.
well there goes any business interzone had
BTW, You didn’t have to turn the camera off. The police had no right to make you turn off the camera and you were well within your rights to continue film. For next time.
The process of extradition isn’t, as far as I know, generally used for civil cases. They would have to press criminal charges with the criminal justice system. Even then extradition for non violent crimes can often be slow to move- and even then only with great pressure being applied by interested parties or a clear government interest worth the expense and potential diplomatic pitfalls.
Exactly- that’s what I was getting at.
Upload the source code and IP and release it open source to everyone.
Then he can sit with his stolen IP, and it wont be no use for him, since everyone else have it too.
Main you have to think like an american. Take him to court over lost wages, ask the court to grant you the IP over the work you haven’t been paid for. Then sue him in the US / Ireland were ever over copy right infringement, he will never get to use your stuff
With a situation like this, it shouldn’t be a problem getting him back to Australia for Court, from wherever he decided to flee to.
Oh, was I wrong to assume that most of the people who would see the comment would not be?
