I’ve been a registered member of XBIZ.net since February 21, 2020
I attended the XBIZ virtual event in January 2021
When you overhauled your forums, I requested my account be moved to Talent status so I could engage with the Creator Community, a request that has gone unanswered despite my attempts to follow up through the appropriate channels (see the ticket I left with support as well as my email to [email protected] from June 13, 2024)
You dropped the ball on my registration for XBIZ Miami 2024:
You drew blood when XBIZ Event Director Moe Helmy had security throw me out of XBIZ Miami 2024 on Day Two:
You then besmirched my good name with at least one of your new sponsors:
XBIZ Event Coordinator Theresa Nguyen Munoz then tried to throw me out again on Day Three:
After Theresa Nguyen Munoz blocked me on Instagram (despite the fact I made no attempt to contact her there), I knew any attempt to contact her, either through official or unofficial channels, might be used against me. I skipped her, and escalated.
I contacted XBIZ Event Director Moe Helmy, CC’ing him on two different text channels (Skype and email) to no response:
I was confused why Moe would dodge me at first, until I realized he was probably the one responsible for siccing security onto me
I left a voicemail with XBIZ founder Alec Helmy to no response
Why have you treated me as a second-class citizen at best, a pest at worst?
I may be a lowly, vanilla-presenting foot soldier, easily mistaken for a tourist, but those labels I’ve applied to myself on XBIZ.net? They’re all accurate.
Were I tatted up with a man-bun, would you treat me the same way?
Note
I originally started this piece as a follow-up to my post about XBIZ Miami 2024, in which I discovered Moe Helmy was probably responsible for requesting security remove me from the Sagamore Hotel. Since I began drafting it, I’ve faced a cancellation attempt that coincided eerily with the time I began re-engaging with XBIZ.
XBIZ seized upon the opportunity and had an attorney send me a letter, banning me from their future events. I tried contacting their attorney to no response. I asked around and got a plausible email address for Alec Helmy, but he has not responded via email, either.
