Maggie Mahoney sent me this link http://www.runwaysl.com/blog/?In that post I did not give opinions merely stated the public view and 'press releases' that had been sent out.
After reading Maggies lengthy post about time lines and such I still find it amazing, even given Maggie's personal circumstances and her and Oceans wish to leave SL and Runway - perfectly understandable - the fact that they would announce it to the world without talking it over with their staff and not even informing their staff until over 3 hours later is much harder to understand.
If you are done with a thing then you are done with it right?
Leaving the staff in the dark almost completely and then getting upset because said staff turned to someone with experience and then accusing Frolic of doing so for his own gain is ludicrous! From all that has been said and written I can see no fault with Frolic he was ASKED to step in and did so in a speedy manner since there was much already in the preparatory stages that needed dealing with quickly, as with all publications it takes a lot more than people realise to get a magazine out on time and deadlines, models, photography all has to be organised, with the staff completely in the dark and seeing a lot of unfulfilled obligations, both Frolic and the staff at the time did their best.
I along with many others wish Maggie and Ocean all the best in their first life.
As for Frolic he tried to help in a confused situation and stepped back, as any gentleman would, when asked to do so - your reputation is untainted as far as I am concerned.
