A Point of Clarification For A Leader of #Empirekred Regarding #CustServ #Blogging.

Keith Gill, AKA Digitalkeith seems to be under some misconception that I am fighting about a gaming company.

No, I am not.

I am blogging about a gaming company that is literally shadowboxing itself into oblivion, that has spent years attacking customers to the point that it was openly talked about on the forums.

Daniel Imbellino Notes Threats - Copy

It’s strange that this company, with only about 300 (certainly less than 1000) active players after 5 years would attack customers to their own obvious detriment, but they did so.

Keith appears to have this misconception often.

Just like with #klout and @kloutsupport Keith simply seems unable to process information that doesn’t seem to his benefit, I think.

Basically Keith “learned” he could game Klout for short term until real people began realizing he was a game player, troll, spammer and cyberbully.

There doesn’t seem to be a “there” there to the professional side of DigitalKeith as leader of Empirekred.

And once that bakes into his score, a la Chris Sandys whose Klout went into the toilet, it stops working.

People who try to help Keith with valid information end up attacked and trolled by a man that can’t accept that other people perhaps know a bit more than him.

That Digitalkeith used Empire Avenue missions to troll me personally is well established.

Why Empire Avenue chose to let him run troll missions while my factual mission that showed Keith Gill was running false information through Empire Avenue missions systems was labeled as “mission abuse” remains unknown to me.

I am blogging about a gaming company that I’m a customer of whose leadership began cyberbullying me in May 2014.

They began cyberbullying me after I reported cyberbullying and the (eav)Elders assured me the ToS would be followed going forward.

This turned out to not be quite true.

I should note that I never spoke with anyone from Empire Avenue about what was happening, Terri intervened with Dups, and that was that.

Subsequently Terri Nakamura emailed Dups, and I was allowed back in game, and I felt it was clear that the bullying should stop.

However it appears that was not the case and Empire Avenue (now EmpireKred) has failed to reform itself.

I had blogged about these issues prior to meeting Digitalkeith, and had blogged about Empire Avenue in benigh manner and the positive things that I saw well before May, 2014.

The Empire Avenue wordpress site shares several of my blogs, as did their Twitter account.

However, given the fact that Gareth Davies (Leader) tweeted his intent to bully me and all the various activities that are well documented post September or so I assure you that this is no argument.

I am simply relating my experiences as a customer of Empire Avenue’s (now EmpireKred), that I joined in October or early Novermber 2013 and played sparingly and blogging about it.

The topics covered include social sales, social media, customer service, consumer affairs, blogging, twitter, facebook, wordpress and other categories and tags.

Whether Empirekred changes their policies or not is no longer my concern as I was suspended from my leader account for reporting DigitalKeith’s false advertising being promoted.

Keith Gill, AKA DigitalKeith is inextricably linked in this matter and remains of interest due to his activies as he was moderated by Instagram for cyberbullying me.

Simply because he stops (if he has) trying to control what subject matter I write about for a limited period of time doesn’t mean he won’t resume at any point in the future.

He seems very, very hard headed and unreasonable to me.

Keith Gill remains a leader at EmpireKred, a company with a dramatic history of abusing other customers.

EmpireKred remains open for business, owned by Kred that is located in San Francisco, CA.

I hope this clarifies matters for DigitalKeith and why I will continue to relate why people should avoid him, and EmpireKred until he and they reform EmpireKred.

Abuse by Keith Gill, AKA DigitalKeith and the rest of the “goon squad” led to a CA DoJ inquiry into Twitter and the San Francisco DA’s office twice opened files.

That such people remain leaders at EmpireKred despite dramatic attacks on their own customer (and other customers going back years for some of them) is of interest to consumers everywhere.

I gave up on my “leaders” account not long after they accused me of “mission abuse” for telling the truth.

Obviously they don’t want to reform nor stop attacking customers.

I am simply blogging to warn other consumers.

We wish Keith Gill the best, otherwise.

Sorry, no can do.

Never did that.  I think we might need more Things Keith Gill Might Have Done Though.

This guy is such a troll.

Same here.

True dat, some things will bite you on the butt.  But there’s been no serial cyberharassment.

There’s been truth about Keith Gill’s false advertising and other acts being told to consumers and customers on Twitter to inform them of what leaders of EmpireKred are up to.

I was gonna stop writing about Empire Avenue, but they wanted me back.

Updated!  You see I requested my tickets be maintained.  Unlike Nance’s who were deleted… Odd, that.

Does #Twitter “Condone Bad Behavior”? #Celebrity #Fancienanc #socialmedia #cybersecurity

Celebrity Troll Nancy Abt and her “support group” have an astonishing record of cyberbullying, doxing, trolling fathers and their kids and issuing threats on Twitter.

Who is the support group engaged in this activity with Nancy Abt?

According to court documents, Chris Sandys, Gareth Davies, Nance Larson and Keith Gill.

One common denominator between the “support group” is that they are all leaders at EmpireKred.

Nance Larson is also on staff at EmpireKred.

When I removed Nancy Abt for trolling on facebook from my content, she set about bullying her friend on Facebook and on Twitter to teach a lesson of some sort.

I should say that she removed herself.  I explained to Nancy Abt why I wasn’t comfortable with her mean trolling attack and asked her to delete it.

When she refused she gave an ultimatum.  So ultimately I removed her, and her friends who hang out with abusive people from my content.

Nancy Abt seems to have forgotten that she gave me the headshots and she wanted to be in my content.

 

Yvonne Roga was also a customer of Empire Avenue’s.

Amazingly enough Valerie Gray managed to pick a side.  Imagine that, the corporate shill blogger came down on the abusive liars side.

Nancy Abt seems to confuse fun pictures on the internet with reality.

Hmmm.

Nancy Abt Claims Victorias Secret Original As Her Own Design

 

She falsely claimed I had stolen her design (it’s a Victoria’s Secret Original) and made an astounding number of false allegations on twitter as she attempted to get whatever revenge she was after.

Twitter has honored my DCMA takedown, and this tweet has been deleted.

Somehow Nancy Abt had access to an apparently undisclosed Twitter office, the “escalation department.”

This does not seem to be available or offered to regular consumers and might explain my difficulty of reaching responsible parties at Twitter such that I had to involve the SF DA’s office and CA DoJ as Twitter was largely unresponsive.

The San Francisco DA’s office twice opened files and the CA DoJ opened an inquiry into twitter’s handling.

One can only wonder why such people remain on Twitter.

One can only wonder at Valerie Gray’s seeming close association with Nancy Abt and gullibility at believe an astonishing liar.

Nancy Abt has been “warned” on Twitter for non violent threats.

Nancy Abt remains one of the most dangerous, conniving, manipulative liars I have ever encountered in my life.

She even falsely claimed having a restraining order on Twitter in multiple tweets.

We continue to hope Nancy Abt gets the hope she needs and is out of hiding from workers’ compensation subrosa investigators.

Given her propensity to lie and make false allegations, I figure it’s only right that I speculate on what she and her “support group” might have done.

They seem like the kind of people that are extremely abusive, what with the cyberbullying, threats and doxing.

Perhaps they like to push people out of wheelchairs?

Haa Haa2

From CEO/Founder Director of Empire Avenue to Online “Customer Support” At #EvolvePR #socialmedia

Duleepa “Dups” Wijayawardhana (@dups), founder/CEO of Empire Avenue now does online support for Evolve PR.

This is astonishing and one can only hope that Dups doesn’t allow a “goon squad” to attack customers of Evolve PR as Chris Voss, noted social media expert reported he did at Empire Avenue.

Attacks included doxing, violent and non violent threats, and cyberbullying for which “goon squad” leaders from Empire Avenue were suspended, warned or moderated for by Twitter and Instagram.

Over 5 posts on my blogs I documented issues with Empire Avenue, from their rogue volunteers, running a “wall of shame” on Brands, attacking Brands reputations online, not answering complaints, having a “goon squad” of endorsed volunteers attacking customers who complained, refusing to discipline internally thereby encouraging more attacks on Brands, etc. What I witnessed was the worst travesty in the annals of customer service I have ever seen. After a month of private discussions with EA to change things, I went public. Only then did they begin to change, but the attacks on me and others grew by their “goon squad.” In the end, I went to EA’s Angel Investor and EA had to shut down its Chat Room and Chat Mod “goons squad.” EA shamelessly has never apologized or produced it damning chat logs as promised by their CEO. This is one of those posts, you can read the rest by Search in the upper right for ‘Empire.’ Don’t play EA or if you do save your REAL money.

Evolve PR also better be careful how he “prioritizes communication.”  Many customers simply noted that customer service had completely stopped at Empire Avenue…

Were their emails simply deleted like Nance Larson’s tickets were?

The Espoused Concept of “Superior Force” Requires Warning Consumers About #EmpireKred

When @trollhunterbob tweeted to Yvonne about “superior force” of all things, (sounded suspiciously like Chris Sandys) I knew that I just had to stay with this blogging about Empire Avenue.

That a company is willing to use “superior force” to try to silence legitimate content about its company is atrocious.

Of course we are talking about a company that according to Chris Voss of The Chris Voss Show, has a “goon squad.”

Shortly after this and other amazingly horrible tweets, I realized that Twitter was at best slow to do anything.

I involved the CA DoJ and San Francisco DA’s office that has jurisdiction over twitter.

This “force” and threats and doxing by Gareth Davies, et al, who are leader of EmpireKred to this day, is more than enough reason to continue to write about EmpireKred.

Two points.

  1.  Yvonne Roga is her own person.
  2. She’s not “complicit” in anything.   No laws broken here.

Whoever was on this account (probably Chris Sandys, I think), is astonishingly abusive and should be removed from EmpireKred immediately.

It’s astounding that they continue to be openly abusive.

Right now someone is kind enough to buy me fake followers as a strange form of reputation attack.

Stay away from EmpireKred at all costs.

This is their own customer they are doing this to to try to keep abuse of customers stretching back years “off the record.”

Trollhunterbob suspended

 

That a current member of staff, Nance Larson participates rather than stop this atrocious abuse is quite sad.

You just have to wonder why no one at EmpireKred is stopping this, it seems the “goon squad” mentality that preexisted Kred’s purchase of Empire Avenue still exists.

Imagine reporting cyberbullying of other customers to the company you’re a customer of and then being bullied for over a year.

I have to disagree with Alan Blaze, I think EmpireKred/Empire Avenue has the worst customer support in the social media world.

All against a customer of Empire Avenue’s.  (Now Empire Kred.)

#EmpireKred Staff Commentary (About, not By!) #Humor

EmpireKred Staff Nance Larson has an astonishing capacity to say and do silly things.

When not attacking her customers in a 3 year vendetta she writes jokes on Twitter.

 

That makes Nance +1 that understand Nance.

 

Someone fed the old biddy!

 

Darn those intrepid gonzo guys writing stuff that Nance doesn’t like!

 

Warning consumers about a business staff that attacks it’s own customers is “harassment”… in Nance Larson’s empty head maybe!

 

Man, I’d hate to see “Gareth” go to jail.. Don’t do it, Nance!  Don’t do it!

Ahhh, do it.  Why not?

 

I’m surprised she has any!

 

That begs the question of just why there are special rules in place according to Michael Q. Todd that allow Nance Larson to attack anyone?

The “Nance Larson Effect” Corollary Hypothesis (#socialmedia #CustServ #Fail) #empireKred #eav

Nance Larson, on staff at EmpireKred has conducted a vicious vendetta against Michael Q. Todd in the Empire Avenue forums for 3 years according to Michael Q. Todd.

This seems to be confirmed by Leader Gareth Davies, who notes a 3 year fight that Gareth Davies also conducted in the Empire Avenue forums and on Twitter.

What’s the fight about?

Don’t know, don’t care.

That some players (leader actually) are able to bully and attacks others in the forums is a major problem.

“The other side”  didn’t present their facts when asked.

 

 

I should note that I didn’t have a side, I reported bullying by what I knew to be empire avenue customers against other customers in the forums.  I was  then bullied in turn by Nance Larson, Chris Sandys and Gareth Davies on Twitter, with Keith Gill joining in later.

I remain astounded that Empire Avenue support refused to stop their leaders from attacking their own customers.

This simply confirms in my mind the original report by Chris Voss of The Chris Voss Show, noted social media expert,

Over 5 posts on my blogs I documented issues with Empire Avenue, from their rogue volunteers, running a “wall of shame” on Brands, attacking Brands reputations online, not answering complaints, having a “goon squad” of endorsed volunteers attacking customers who complained, refusing to discipline internally thereby encouraging more attacks on Brands, etc. What I witnessed was the worst travesty in the annals of customer service I have ever seen.

This is one of those posts, you can read the rest by Search in the upper right for ‘Empire.’ Don’t play EA or if you do save your REAL money.

 

 

That Empire Avenue admins, that according to Alan Blaze hate their players, and rewrite the rules on the spot to allow Nance Larson to attack people is the problem at Empire Kred.

Alan Blaze NewsBlaze Publisher - Copy

 

Their customer service is atrocious.

There clearly are unstated rules in place that condone Nance Larson attacking her own customers.

Their vendettas that then take place on Twitter ridiculous.

If you want to be attacked in social media by a company you are a customer of, give EmpireKred a try.

Until this leadership team is removed, avoid EmpireKred at all costs.
