But the developers did walk away, Billy was the only one who kept with it initially...
And Billy didn't really have a "company" as we understand it; he came with an idea. It had nothing. A legal incorporation is a shell, nothing more.
I'm not the only one who was rooting for Billy while reading this post. Nobody did anything bully-like - it's a complete distraction and red herring, nothing quoted by Billy is "bully-like" - the closest thing in the post is when Bobby suggested ousting Billy from his own idea and leadership, just because Bobby helped write two days of code.
"Thanks for coming up with the best business at this event - I think you should be demoted to soemthing like business development, so someone else can run it."
Ridiculous suggestion, in my opinion, especially given the negotiation that went into the event beforehand.
- invisible 11y agoThe developers were bullied out of the team by Billy. He neglected to talk to the team (on slack and Facebook). When he finally did talk he took leadership and assumed CEO roles without the team agreeing. If there could be any fair way of doing this it would involve votes by the team (which is what Bobby basically was pushing for, albeit in an opinionated way). The 0.4% didn't imply anyone else owned the remaining percent. It implied that if a company were agreed upon and formed by members of the team, everyone would get at least 0.4%.
