    Please don't quote stuff from reddit as if it is anything other than a bunch of trolls speculating on how to hurt the project. This is not true but now I have multiple website asking me about it.

    Apologies, I will save my congratulations as well then (*ducks like Earl*). But that place that shall not be named (reddit, since you named it) has the information coming from a Texas state government website registry. Of course there could be background missing, but literally an official registry has your name listed as CEO of Portalarium, a registry that can only be updated by Port (i.e., someone listed you, and it wasn't reddit trolls).

    Ah... apparently, there is some public record in Texas that shows me as CEO. YAH BABY, Go me! :p Seriously though, this is pointless paperwork pushing stuff that is meaningless. How meaningless? I didn't even know I was the CEO on paper somewhere.

    For corporations, the board of directors controls 100% of the power and I'm not on the board. Richard, Starr, and several others are on the board. On paper the official CEO was Dallas who retired last year. As the only other official officer at the company, my name probably just got moved over.

    This feels very much like the story last year that Richard removed "President" from his name on the website and people had a cow. Most people learn all they know about business structures from TV so I get it but at a small company, titles are meaningless. Also, as a corporation, the board is all that matters and they have complete control.

    @Fungus44 I'm currently blocked from shipping because I need to get some more signed maps. Richard signed them but I haven't been able to get them back yet. I will get rolling on shipping again as soon as I get those.

    Seems like they have the websites on a drama email list.

    We have some dedicated haters!

    I keep suggesting they get some positive things to do with their life, but most of them insist that trolling is better.
