If you still have a day remaining on the deadline then there is really no reason to post.
The thing is that it is the 4th deadline already...
And sorry, I do think it's appropriate to post this here.
You could as well say that it's inappropriate to post feedback for an eBay seller on his profile since it's publicly viewable and gives him a bad name.
If you were a disappointed customer like me and few others then you would have understood us, being a former worker for Mike I do not expect you to understand our situation.
A person like Mike should take his work more seriously. If he can't complete the work he's got, he shouldn't be taking more orders. If he can't complete the order he initially received then he should be giving out a refund and a compensation for all the trouble and lost time.
I do understand your point supporting him. I'm not saying that Mike is a bad person and never did. I trust you when you say that he is a honest and a good person. The complaints are against his business and the way he manages it, not against him personally.
I'm sure (at least I hope...) he's doing the best he can right now but he shouldn't have gotten to that point. He should have thought about his limitations in first place and avoided all this mess.
I myself and few others have requested refunds several times. It seems as if Mike is just ignoring those requests with replies like "Your work will be ready within the next few days" OR "We have stated that there are delays already in our CP". Those replies do not fix the situation NOR provide a reasonable explanation or solution.
I have decided to give Vessio and Mike a second chance to deliver my work. It's already been more than 2 weeks since I told Mike I'm willing to give this a second chance.
He initially said my project will be completed within 3-5 days.
If I do not receive my work by tomorrow which is the deadline Mike has set for ALL delayed work then I will demand a refund for the second time. I will not take anymore excuses.
There is no point in launching my site anymore. I was supposed to launch it almost 2 months ago when the niche was HOT. Right now the niche is almost dead and I'm not even sure my site will do near as good as it was supposed to.
I really hope I'll be getting my work by tomorrow.
