I was following this entertaining thread at Google Webmaster Tools where a lawyer threatened Google with a massive lawsuit for not responding to his requests about Google Webmaster Tools.
The thread, at least the majority of it, is now deleted - which is rare and I only think Google can delete threads.
Here is the complaint, removing the site and name of the lawyer who is complaining:
Subject: I am going to sue Google Webmaster tools
Two months ago I submitted, my website www.redacted.com to Google Webmaster tools. Once that was, completed I found an error stating unsupported format and I clicked on my site stating my website page doesn't exist. I went on the http//: clicked www.redacted.com guess what? It works I complained to Google I was being nice about it and the company refuses to respond to my concern.Not only am I Journalist I am a Lawyer that's my Google Username so when you hear the name Lawyer. If I were them they better start responding and to take my message very seriously
"Google Webmasters has until Thursday at 12 noon to investigate the errors involving my site. If Google fails to comply with my request I will be starting "Court Proceedings" if Google Webmasters believes that I am joking they can take it as a joke but once the papers are filed and served the joking will be over".
Google loves hurting businesses and sabotaging their reputations on getting people to view webpages. As far as I'm concerned in the 21st Century Google doesn't take their business seriously anymore. Google has hired employees who aren't dedicated or passionate for what they do. When it comes to legal matters I am passionate about that and I believe that the United States Department of Justice does a very good job cracking down on companies who manipulate and mislead their clients.
If I don't hear from Google by Thursday they're going to be sorry for crossing the line with me. I am going to do so much damage to this company that will later make them change their policy and reform their Webmaster tools. Don't screw with me because if you do you're going to pay for it. I don't spare my "opponents" I want no excuses and I don't want to hear your bull-shit stories.
Wow - yea - wow! I wish you could see some of the responses from the community there. It was pretty funny. Of course, Google did not respond to the thread but they must have noticed it because the thread is mostly gone.
As one person said, "It must have been locked/deleted as I was replying! Shame its gone, it was the funniest thread of the yr so far."
Threatening Google over something like this doesn't work well. But I guess in this case, Google must have taken noticed because the thread is dead.
