It could be he didn't pay for the web design because it sucks and he can't even hyperlink his own site correctly.

No, theres more to it.

Lol hilarious.

The .biz site is cookie cutter bullshit full of buzzwords I wouldn't want to pay for it either but I applaud these guys screwing over their stingy boss anyways. Every web designer I've met has plenty of stories of not being paid or being asked to build a megasite for an insultingly low figure by cheapskate startups

I don't understand this. What is the deal if they won't pay you? Edit: Ah! Thanks for the replies. I get it now. :)

The webmaster/admin whom Channel Source apparently owes money added the "we probably won't pay you" message, presumably to encourage them to make good on their outstanding debts.

It appears that his webmaster has updated the website since the owner refuses to pay his bills, and has gone ahead and added in the whole "We won't pay you" part of it" as an "incentive" to pay.
