If it's not useful, why even vote on it? that's my whole point. Allowing a user to "mark as useful" would even allow more graphs to be generated, such as a pie graph showing levels of users that found it useful.

I'm in California and I've been working on a project for a company in Canada for 2 years.
I've had no contact with my client since the first. If I had to guess, I'd have to say he's decided to cancel the project. It's $hitty way to do it, but it's his choice.
Problem is, neither I nor the other guy on project have been paid.
[UPDATE]
Problem is, neither I nor the other guy on project have been paid since the first.
I'm considering remoting and removing the DB and click-once.
I'm open to how you would deal with this.

Did YOU contacted client? Do it first. Ask...
If not other you can gain a bad name around the client...
Skipper: We'll fix it.
Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

Do NOT do any damage to the system - even though you wrote it and they didn't pay you this would still be considered a serious matter. (Think law enforcement serious).
IMHO, better to write a letter asking what the status is of the project and payment, and send it to the company by registered post. If it is a large company it is likely that the payment just fell between the gaps in the procurement process...
Then - wait a couple of weeks and if you don't hear back better call Saul.

As far as handling this project, it's hard for me to say without knowing the full details. But, as was mentioned, it's best to talk to the client directly about it.
However, for the next project make sure the client pays you in draws / milestones. Don't wait until the end of it all for payment. Clients have a way of making changes anyway; you still have bills to pay.

I've been getting paid monthly for 2 years. He just stopped responding after the first.
From a copyright perspective, at least here in California, I own the rights to the code. So since he defaulted I can probably take my product back. Plus I doubt he would try to sue me down here when he's in Canada.

I'd be very careful about that. If you harm his business - and it can be construed as intentional, he might be very willing to take those steps. The border isn't really all that much of a deterrent.

Which means you can use the code. However what you said was...
"I'm considering remoting and removing the DB and click-once"
And that isn't code usage. And unless you have contract that specifically allows you to do that on non-payment then it is very unlikely that you have the right to do that.
Matter of fact, if you do not in fact have a right to do that, then, far as I know, then per the laws of the US doing that can be prosecuted as a criminal case where you are the criminal.
Criminal cases, unlike civil cases, are at the discretion of the state and can hinge on nothing more that whether they have the jurisdiction and can prove it.

Oh as was said, don't damage their systems. Personally, I'd remove my software if I talked to the client and they refused to pay. Legally speaking, as a contractor, you own it unless you gave up ownership as per the agreement. But don't damage their system. If you let them keep the software and they didn't pay you could always sue them.
But as was said, talk to them directly first. It could just be a communication issue.

I've been getting paid for 2 years on a monthly basis. Also, we went from talking at least once a day, sometimes twice, to no contact since the first.
The app is a WPF app run from a click-once off my server. I could remote in, uninstall it, then disable the click-once.
That would get his attention.

"since the first" - ah, you mean "first of the month"? Good grief, it's only the 12th today!
I've known people who have been nursing a new-year-hangover longer than that!

I'm assuming he's done with the project. If so, send me a check and we'll part ways.
|
|
|
|

Note that in Canada check is spelled cheque. This could be the whole basis of the misunderstanding.
|
|
|
|

Exactly. If he's getting paid monthly and the checks are still in the mail, it warrants a few phone calls first before going all "I'm gonna busta cap up in this mofo" gangsta on him.
