If it costs you more money to fight the battle than you are likely to recoup in winnings, then it doesn't always make sense to sue. Sad but true. Also, this would be a US company suing a man in the Philippines. IGN might not even have proper standing to sue on Amana/Justin's behalf. International legal battles are complicated due to differences in laws and requirements. It's likely easier to take those resources and directly recoup the costs of the parties involved. Sure, Gus doesn't get hit, but then the victims are accounted for. Ultimately it's greater utility and it relies on the community to hold Gus responsible for what he did with a permanent blacklist. | ||

That's great that the community can at least help... Do we have news about that ? : "I wish we could just come in on a white horse and right all the wrongs, but we want to share more inside info why that's difficult. Our sponsorship of the event was only $14k, of which we gave Gus 50% before the event. To ensure that the event would be successful, we withheld the remaining $7k. This will not pay for even half of what's been reported he owes. We will work on evaluating where to best allocate the remaining funds." Will it go to Amanda or the other peoples that were screwed? Or are you guys just keeping it and raising fund instead? : / Since you guys are aiming for 5k from the fund, (5k+7k = 12k) I guess this is going to Amanda? What about all the other that got screwed? Gus just won, now. No legal actions mean that he can just keep the money... | ||

I think it's also a lot more important to be focusing everything right now on helping the people that got screwed before really going after Gus. That guy's career is over, and if he ever shows his face anywhere, the internet is basically going to jump on him.

They're not keeping it to themselves. | ||
