first off I want to thank all for sticking up for Gibbs in the recent bad encounter we had with an agent.
Now just to clear the matter up I would like to post Gibbs side of the story.
As like any agency. We have policies that we expect to be followed. And every new agent is told to read these policies when they are accepted into Gibbs, as a matter of fact our recruiting board even says to go and read our website.
Our policies on our website read as follows:

Roamie, the dumb dog, barked too much and ate too much anyway, and he hated to travel so we always had to leave him in NY, he wasn't worth the trouble!! lol That we had to pay to have the kennel keep him when we all left NY.

I really don't think anyone thought ill of Gibbs. I was out of town when the whole thing happened, but I did read through the paper trail. I don't think anyone ever thought poorly of Gibbs. Your policies aren't unfair, or all that unusual, except maybe for the automatic rookie to agent thing. ;)

I do see that KUgirl's new detective says she is trying to make things right and work out a repayment with you guys. I hope it all works out best for every one involved. We all make mistakes and poor choices, it's whether we learn from them or not that matters. I hope that Sleuth Lover is as sincere as she appears to be. :)

I agree with cfm , lets give the girl a chance. She obviously loves this game and hopefully learns from this experience.

No one thinks bad of Gibbs in this. I'm inspired by the community that we have that stood up together. I think that's a very cool thing that we have here. It's part of why I love Sleuth so much. There are so many great people and so many great friends here. It's more than just a game for me now, it really is a community. :0)

I hate it when dogs become victim over a divorce of some sort. :)

Either this whole thing happened while I was gone, or I have been sleeping. What it looks like to me is a simple case that probably has happened to most agencies. Someone joins your agency, and then suddenly is gone. Eventually you boot this person.

Sometimes people then turn in to turds. Some turds create alter ego's.

However there seems to be a public apology, and I'd say if the dog is paid back then moving back is the thing to do.

I concur that I doubt anyone thinks badly of Gibbs, as we know how this stuff works. They have always been known as a group of standup players, and most of us would put little weight on the words of a disgruntled fired agent.

I still feel bad about the dog though.

I mean moving on, not back.
