on “Tumblr Stole My [Subdomain] At The Behest of A Corporation”There is only 1 contradiction: the part about notifying the original owner through email. There is really no way to verify this since the screenshot of the email may have been forged. The part about having 0 posts was explained by Meaghan all the way at the bottom of the page. The RSS feed shows deleted posts. I found this comment thread amusing though. http://meaghano.com/post/393246405/tumbledore-ive-run-pitchf...

on “Response from Pitchfork Regarding Tumblr Subdomain”Except it's not a resolution. Tumblr's response ( http://meaghano.com/post/393246405/tumbledore-ive-run-pitchf... ) totally contradicts it.
