Wait, now I want to know more about the cutthroat industry that apparently revolves around yarn.

Go on, geezer.
In all of this madness, I was shocked to see the subscription numbers. Thought they would be more.

I think this is part of what the lawsuit is about too. They are saying Cam made it seem like they are the same company when they aren’t.
None of the suit seems to make any sense. It also makes VMP board look pretty bad if half of what they are saying is true IMO.

Not for nothing, but Cam’s LinkedIn has his VMP employment ended in March but his VMPressing involvement still active (this is all public info)

You thought they had more than 20k subscribers? That’s pretty big to me…something like 900k in month just in subscription fees…

basically we found out about him because we found his youtube videos kinda bad but we were nice and had him as someone to sometimes talk to.. but then he ended up saying stupid stuff and we ignored him... then he claimed he had west nile to try and gain our sympathy, pretending to be his own girlfriend who was reporting him being sick in a coma (where and i quote, felt like he was in a nightmare where he couldn't escape, which was some of the proof that helped us discover he faked it because when you are in a coma you just wake up after a long while and not realize it)..... then he pretended to be an awful dude who was harassing us with weird porn pics or that the same girlfriend had a photo taken from her photo album, slowly shown who the faker was.. and arrested him in the middle of the night.. and we almost believed it until i realized that the criminal arrest report he showed us said they were arrested in the day when it was like.. 10PM for me...
look this guy had mental issues (he claimed he literally heard our voices in the profile pictures we had)... r/thathappened

How much of that money goes out the door almost instantly though. I thought they’d have at least 50k especially with the international market.

Oh my goodness. I hope everyone in your friend group is okay. That’s terrible.

Go on, geezer.
Globally, that number seems small to me.

That figure seems high given multi-month subscriptions, not to mention all of the promotions they ran for most of last year.

I wouldn't be surprised if the number has shrunk in the last couple of years just because of price increases. But they could still be making more money with the price hikes to negate any lost subscriber base.

i did hear about that move on linkedin and i assumed that was because they were the same company and was moving... looks like it was a sign of things to come

It's been publicized that it was going to be a VMP pressing plant for literally years. The board only just noticed it a few months ago?!
Like you say, the lawsuit on its own is nonsensical and full of contradictions that make the VMP board look like idiots. Assuming Cam has good legal representation, I am very curious to see his response to this lawsuit.

Go on, geezer.
I wonder what their numbers were before prices jumped to $50.
