I don't want to hurt ANYONES feelings here - and I am by NO MEANS trying to "take sides" here AT ALL. But I do just want to say this - when someone PM's you and asks you how you make something (or whatever the case may be) - you DO have the option of not responding, or either just simply telling them in a nice way that you've worked very hard at trying to make your products a little "different" and that your sorry, but you just can't share that information.
Know what I mean??
You don't have to be MEAN about it, but you can just simply tell them sorry - I won't be able to share that with you. Because when you DO give out this information, you take the risk of someone making products that are very similar to yours.
Again, I
AM NOT taking any sides here, or saying that this person is wrong, or that person is wrong - it is just something that I thought I would point out and mention.
And P.S. - I do want to add in, that I agree 100% with what Gingergirlsmom said about posting the screen names and e-mails publicly. That is a personal privacy issue and said members might not appreciate having that plastered all over the internet for everyone to see.
I hope you guys get this resolved soon, and I wish BOTH OF YOU the best of luck in your business!
