I added the original new thread to my watchlist.. I look at this stuff at least 3-4 times a day.
I understand your post just fine. if you look at this stuff 3-4 times a day since the 20th of April, surely you would have noticed the swap before now. 10k was being bumped constantly and so was the TEETH thread. Maybe you should have asked questions in the thread you were following, maybe you should have done like a lot of other people and been proactive sending your coins to BTCPool.Exchange where they were going to be swapped. Your upset, fine but you have to take some responsibility..
I don't follow 10K, thought I was following the correct teeth thread. Don't look at the main stuff in bitcoin talk, so things can bump all day and I would never see them.
What question would I ask? Whats happening with the exchange? Since nothing was ever posted I don't feel it is up to me to pester developers every day, I'm happy to wait until things get sorted out. In fact I think senseless questions are half the problem, with btct threads. They tend to make things harder to follow.
I think my biggest gripe is the hard cut off for swapping coins. It just doesn't sound very customer oriented. What if I was in the hospital for 2 weeks and missed the exchange?
I take responsibility in so far as what I can change. If I can get at least one person to wake up to what happened, then I've done my part.
If you can't keep people properly updated, you shouldn't be expecting them to know everything.
I knew here was an exchange coming.
I knew spots was banded from btct - thus the exchange could have been delayed.
I thought I was following the correct new thread.
In hind sight there are a ton of things I could have done.
But.. This would have been a non-issue if they
a) didn't switch the teeth thread.
b) clearly announced the switch (of threads) in the main Balls thread and or the original teeth thread (both would have been best)
c) announced the swap in all of the coin threads (I followed balls and MMXIV).
