What is Joshua Schachter's affiliation with Honestly? Has he made any comments regarding this mess?

  There is no way he endorses this type of behavior. He may be an investor, one of the many (http://techcrunch.com/2010/10/19/unvarnished-honestly-kazanjy-funding/ http://techcrunch.com/2010/10/19/unvarnished-honestly-kazanj...), but there is not a chance in hell that he is cool with spam like this. He's been adamant against spam in the past, and has a track record of very ethical behavior.

    Unless we see a sudden and swift cleanup, Aproximately $100k investment and a yea vote at a board meeting appears to be a sufficient endorsemment.

      If he has a board seat, then yes, he should have some say here. But it's really unlikely that he has a board seat. An early stage investor has very little authority over what a startup does. At best, they may have some advisory influence with the founders, if the founders care about having a good relationship with the investor. But usually, that's about it.

        Joshua is one of about a dozen angel investors in a round the company raised back in October, along with First Round Capital and Charles River Ventures. The real VCs took a board seat.

  I'm a minor investor. I sent a note to the founders to discuss.
