WiiLi devs accused of stealing donated funds

We came across certain reports that the highly anticipated WiiLi project is currently in jeopardy. Apparently, some members of the development team have been taking the money donated for the project and – what else? – keeping it for themselves.

Now, we have no way of confirming this but we can string all the details we have for you so as you could draw your own conclusions about this matter. According to sources, these reports and complaints are coming from the supporters of the project themselves. The reports added that the forum section of WiiLi‘s wiki page is swarming with flames and sharp words. Unfortunately, the forum section is currently down. Hmm…

The only active link is the main page which is not looking suspicious at all. But from the last time we’ve visited them, certain matters had come up. For one thing, these are examples of the development team’s message to their supporters:

We are selling links from our forums to raise funds for a new dedicated server. If interested please pm tuxido on the forums with an offer. The links will be displayed on every post where the amazon banner is now.

Hello Digg and Slashdot! You are one of the reasons that we are moving to a dedicated server. Please chip in with a Paypal donation, and next time you visit, our server won’t melt.

Any QJ reader that is related or familiar with the WiiLi project could help shed some light on this matter. Please feel free to discuss in the comment’s section about WiiLi and what’s the real score. Lastly, the dev team will be accepting donations until  December 21. Their current account stands at US$ 618.
