I SAID GOOD DAY, SIR
Oh, hey! It's yet another shady-looking vanity publisher who wants to charge you to publish your book and then not do very much with it! Which is probably for the best, as their grammar is not very good!

Oh, hey, they also threaten to sue if Absolute Write won't remove the "defaming" thread! 

And then, ParaDon goes straight for the nuclear option:

if that's the case then you can expect our cyber attack within the next few days if the feed is not deleted.

Everyone lols.

Then, Intelligent Writer shows up to set everyone straight:

sorry to burst your bubble you guys, but i know somebody that's already signed to them, and his book is due for release next year

my friend is not a first-time writer either, so i trust there's something he found interesting about this publishing.

Board member Wicked replies with a single link.

All I know is, Intelligent Writer/Same IP As The ParaDon Email then

1) starts demanding to see everyone's résumés ("I'm still waiting for that resume that proves you know English grammar more than me");

2) mistakenly calls out Richard White ("Sorry to keep jabbing at you guys, but Richard White here is a self-published author. You out of everyone should know to keep your mouth shut. Hell will freeze before i self-published. Even though i may have to");

3) eventually declares, "shoot my mistake then, all i seen is that your book is PRINT-ON-DEMAND alarming!!!";

4) and finally flounces: "last time i'll be on this site. Next time you hear from me, i'll be post my own book like you guys/gals. You have nothing - no evidence - to back up your claims, and i've proved some of you guys to be a liar. And so i don't work for ParaDon, i just like heated debate. BYE"--

5) wait, no, gotta come back and re-flounce: "mistype.. before i'm ambushed. Correction. this is the last time i'll be on this site. Next time you hear from me, i'll be posting and self-promoting my own book like you guys/gals. You have nothing - no evidence - to back up your claims, and i've proved some of you guys to be a liar. And no i don't work for ParaDon, i just like heated debate. BYE[.]"


INDEED.

I love my wank with a side of grammar-fail. So tasty.
