I imagine Rusch and the rest contacting everyone in their friends list and groups and informing them of this, releasing more notecards to warn others, etc. The fuss just doesn't match the little thought and effort done by this Vanessa Knoller, but it must be done to ensure AVENUE's reputation and integrity. How stupid can one person get? Are some people in SL so greedy and stupid at the same time? It is such a big hassle on part of AVENUE to be victims of something that was so stupidly done.

But apparently that was only the tip of the iceburg of stupidity in this story. I am just happy that this was discovered so that the good name of an Agency and an another Agencies top exec are not associated with what most obviously is nothing more than an attempt to cash in on their images and names.

Many people in SL ride on the coat tails of someone more prominent and I think when they do these things they should definitely be ousted in the SL community. I have no sympathy for anyone who uses others to advance in any type of way and believe me I have dealt with that type, very recently I may add. Annette Wilder, CEO, Wilder PR Inc.
