Commodore & Amiga Vultures and Vampires

Exposing Vultures and Vampires since 2014. Thinking vs. believing. Fake news and opportunistic Commodore & Amiga “friends” are not my friends!

"New Commodore" Retail Sales Director David John Pleasance selling counterfeit Commodore and Amiga merch at German Amiga 40 event. Is this The Future We Were Promised™?

Not content with posting his passport data page on Facebook, fake Commodore UK "Managing Director for over 12 years" and newly minted Commodore International "VP & Brand Ambassador" David John Pleasance ups the ante by posting banking details...

Fake "Managing Director for 12 Years" still hasn't refunded victims of his failed "Commodore Amiga Global Alliance" scheme? Also the full page ads in Pleasance & Dickinson's book are still there (eBook + paper version). It can't be that difficult to remove a page or two?

Mr. Pleasance, Mr. Dickinson, will you please publish a full list of photo and illustration credits for your four books? 3/3

I now received books 2 and 3 of David John Pleasance and Robert Trevor Dickinson's chaotic "From Vultures to Vampires" saga. Once again, tons of pictures with no credit or attribution. Did a spot check, and nobody ever reached out to the sources to ask for permission! 2/3

Apple, Spectrum and other clones were common even in Europe well into the 1990s, but how does it matter? Amiga was and is fun. This book (like the previous one by the fake MD) reads more like a personal vendetta where the authors blame everyone but themselves.

And the usual attacks against Petro & Co. In an attempt to distract from their own acquisition failures, the authors do not hesitate to throw dirt at winning bidder ESCOM's partner New Star, by citing irrelevant Chinese copyright situation.

Found some time to skim through Pleasance and Dickinson's latest book. Some good research, but leads to trivia overload, and events are disfigured by negativity bias.

@eldeestephens Not for a single day my friend. He was "joint-MD" under Colin Proudfoot in the final months (after the US bankruptcy), but never MD. I posted about this in 2018 as I could not understand the claim, but now I know. twitter.com/CBMAmigaSoapbo…

Fact or fiction? Please @danwood_uk (you promoted this) can you post UK Companies House records to confirm the claim that David Pleasance officially held the Managing Director title "for over 12 years"? For all I know, he was just a salesman. That he still is, I do not doubt.

Fake "Managing Director for 12 Years" caught using fake Kickstarter endorsements, has to terminate campaign. A greedy global alliance of... cheaters?

Trevor replied with more half-truths, only admitting to a change needed "to reflect what volumes 2 and 3 cover" (14:42"): youtu.be/hwRjkqW8B6E?t=… What about Volume 1? There is no "copyright chaos" in that book either. Why all the lies, like the "Managing Director for 12 years"?

Vampires licking their own blood, LOL... Reply from those who claimed to "Revive the Amiga": AmigaOS piracy is fine, but piracy of their own "intellectual property" is not!?

Majsta finally speaks out, confirming a dark story of piracy, betrayals and in-fighting. Another nail in the coffin for Pleasance & Dickinson's imaginary "Vampire Triumphs"?
