I hope you still make food and don't succumb to idle threats. I guess if you need to take it private to deal with people or need others to help you make it, I will step up. I do not understand what business it is to anyone what we as adults choose to do. I wish you DID make money for your trouble. I have made batches of food for my puffer and GROSS it is awful to make. The stink and goo, and the smell of my blender frying is enough to make me cry.

I hope this individual took the time to factor in the time, the fuel, effort, wear and tear of your blender and just your sanity in regards to making this food.

I would pay more for the food if needed, and perhaps you should take the steps in making this a part time legitimate business for yourself.

I sure hope you make this food, and if you need help, come on over here and I will take responsibility for doing what you are accused for. Do people not have better things to do instead of making an entire forum suffer because they have issues.

I can make my own food at home, but my Gawd, I would pay more for you to do it since it is yucky. Now what can be done to ensure you are protected form repercussions in case this person does cause grief?

Thank you everyone!

The person in question and one of the PMs has been forwarded to the Mods. I figure the threat/PMs are not from the source they claim and are not legitimate, however it bothers me considerably that someone would send something like that to me. I have requested that the person identify themselves and prove they are whom they claim to be, we'll just have to see what happens, and I'll go from there.

The only way I can see someone would have a legitimate complaint about your food Catherine is if it were an exact replica of a brand name food. EXACT. But from what I've read, you've come up with your own blend, possibly using other foods as a refference. There's no problem going that method as far as I know....

*shakes head*

Its not about the content, or at least it wasn't. The person in question has been removed from the forums, and I am very thankful to the Mods for their quick action, and reassurances.

I'm looking into a few things now to prevent this from happening again in the future. It was something I always intended to do, although for a different reason, but further on down the road when I'd better firmed up a few plans and decisions. This is quite cryptic, but I'll sort some things out and then go ahead with everything.

I'll still make food. I'm heading out tomorrow to my favorite LFS to pick up some goodies, and then onto a few more stops for supplies. I am also really hoping that the food processor I have fares better against cuttlefish & squid then the blender did.

Glad to hear it was resolved Catherine. Thanks for your perseverance and the Canreef mods for their quick action.

Well... some people are jealous of your system, and jealous of the knowledge and friendship you bring to the forums. Plus you make food that is "crack for fish". I don't know what you put in the stuff but it works. Perhaps that's what the issue is, the fish are stealing everything in the tank to buy more for themselves

They are skipping work to eat the food and have no life anymore since it's all about the food...

Sorry it's a bad joke but we need to laugh about it or they are winning in the end. If you stopped making the food they would win in the end and probably start making it themselves to make a killing on it.

Thats terrible. I hope you try and wiegh the one bad comment againt all the good comments. I appreciate the food and all the work you do to make it. Some people are just born jerks and jump on any oppourunity they can find to reaffirm it!

Thanks for the food in the past, and I hope you decide to continue.
