What would it mean, generally speaking, and what would it mean as concerns the antiKimkins activists specifically if one of Heidi's sources alerted her to Mariasol's discovery of David Luper's ad at getafreelancer regarding the cloning of Kimkins.com? <BR/><BR/>A third point, as mentioned by one of the anonymous posters above, re "And I've never seen Kimmer railing about how the nasty MCD lady has ripped off her diet."<BR/><BR/>We never even noticed or thought about that but now that you mention it, it does seem weird. If Heidi had been pissed off enough at the Lupers for cloning the website that she reported them to GoDaddy, she's been strangely silent about the fact that they also seem to have cloned a lot of other Kimkins stuff -- the diet, the TOS, the snarkiness, the photo weirdness, etc.<BR/><BR/>At any rate, Mariasol, excellent coverage of the MCD situation and fantastic work sorting it all out with such clarity.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4891111747916133059.post-15617537232384747192008-03-11T10:23:00.000-04:002008-03-11T10:23:00.000-04:00Hmmm.

It may be an excuse that the Lupers adopted though and fed to Hulon as it might sound better than "we didn't pay the bill". The Luper's also kept up that charade by making minor changes to the front page to make it look a little less than kimkins (red instead of kimkin-green, and different font).mariasolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02401598691576886333noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4891111747916133059.post-44776780207654976992008-03-09T22:26:00.000-04:002008-03-09T22:26:00.000-04:00Mariasol, When did Heidi get her accounts frozen? ...Mariasol, <BR/>When did Heidi get her accounts frozen? Must have started to hurt by December. And when did Heidi raise the price at KK to $79.95? Funny how MCD's $69.95 falls exactly between KK's previous $59.95 & $79.95.<BR/> <BR/>I bet you're right about something that didn't happen due to us blogging. That may be why there is so much hostility coming our way from the MCD people. We need to keep digging and blogging. Maybe they will shed more light on this - out of frustration, if nothing else. They certainly don't seem eager to come forward and clear up this issue.

I must've missed it when that information came to light.<BR/><BR/>I assume that you have his IP from when he commented here in December. Is it the same as his IP when he commented at Jimmy's? (In other words, is there any chance that Kimmer is involved in his commenting process as she seems to have been with Margarita's Martini?)<BR/><BR/>Also, what would have been Hulon's motivation to lie about why the MCD site originally went down? He commented in at least two places that it went down because Kimmer had made a formal complaint to godaddy.com. It turned out that it simply went down because the bills had not been paid. And I've never seen Kimmer railing about how the nasty MCD lady has ripped off her diet. So was this a red herring from Hulon to make us think that there is some kind of animosity between Heidi and Bonnie, when it's more likely that there is some sort of collusion instead?<BR/><BR/>So many questions.

I have been trying to see what happened early December to prompt the price increase, but nothing stands out. If you only have 20 non-paying members @ $19.95, why would you suddenly have an inrush with people signing up at $69.95? Or, perhaps there was something that didn't happen due to us blogging about the MCD?mariasolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02401598691576886333noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4891111747916133059.post-47288154386492912622008-03-09T21:33:00.000-04:002008-03-09T21:33:00.000-04:00hmmm What happened at the Kimpound on or around 9/...hmmm <BR/>What happened at the Kimpound on or around 9/11/07? If I remember right, wasn't that around the time the PI caught up with Heidi? For some reason I remember there being some issues on that date. I know that some were irritated at "kimmer" for not recognizing the reason we hold 9/11 so close to our hearts. But, maybe there is more to this date than that. Bonnie makes her FIRST post on HER site on this date. Don't mind me, I'm just thinking "out loud"<BR/><BR/>ETA - I went back to Sept 07 and looked up the posts written on the kimkins controversy site and wouldn't ya know, MANY MANY things came to light around that very date.

MCD update! <BR/><BR/>Time for a Magic Chicken Diet update.<BR/><BR/>Some of you may remember a series of impassioned and creatively spelled blog comments left by one "Hulon Pate" who represented himself as the son-in-law of Mr. and Mrs. Magic Chicken Diet.<BR/><BR/>This should come as a surprise to no one, but "Hulon," whoever and whatever else he may be, is categorically not their son-in-law.<BR/><BR/>One of my pastimes is genealogy, and if you search the Texas Birth Index, you can see who Mr. and Mrs. Magic Chicken Diet's children are. I'm not posting their names or genders, but there are three of them and none of them is now married or has ever been married to anyone named "Hulon Pate" or any permutation thereof. Those that are married are married to people who are clearly not Hulon Pate, nor has any of them ever been divorced from a Hulon Pate. He may be a boyfriend, an ex-boyfriend, or a friend, but he is not a relative by marriage.<BR/><BR/>It appears as though Hulon Pate, Devoted Son-In-Law, may in fact, be fiction. At least insofar as his relationship to the Magic Chicken Diet's goes.<BR/><BR/>I'm shocked!<BR/><BR/>ElleAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4891111747916133059.post-64243722364535417682008-03-09T19:27:00.000-04:002008-03-09T19:27:00.000-04:00Excellent post and timeline, Mariasol!You have an ...Excellent post and timeline, Mariasol!<BR/><BR/>You have an amazing talent.
