Giving up and running around scream SCAM is what doesn't do any good

Why not? It warns potential investors away from the site - worst case scenario they miss out on an opportunity to make more money, best case scenario they avoid losing money. I can't see how silence helps, apart from scrypt.cc. Unless exposure threatens existing "investors", in which case they're complicit.

Many of the posts claiming scams are not accurate, I pointed the 6THs claim is totally incorrect. There are always lots of on-lookers that always want to climb on the scam wagon for whatever reason. People that don't have any direct involvement with the site are really not in a position to know what is really going on.

Site is still alive and working.

Except it probably isn't working. Even ThorSWO has been unable to show they received their alleged pair of 4 BTC withdrawals, and there are plenty of posters here who can testify to cancelled withdrawals. Any inability to withdraw is a serious problem, even if some punters can withdraw some (or even all) of their BTC.

How do you know the BTC wasn't received? So what he doesn't want to show you proof, that is his business. I'm not going to show you transactions to my wallet either. I don't want to tie that wallet to my account here. That is a persons freedom.

Personally I know withdraws weren't working and now my last 3 have gone through, although it took a while. I now have 5 more withdraws I've started and I'll see how those go. Before the hack and after the power failure, I actually received a withdraw for 20 BTC. I have no problem believing someone could have had a 4 BTC withdraw.

Well, that's good, but you could perhaps be less ambiguous with your warnings.

I'm not ambiguous at all. I've clearly stated the problems I know about and stated I don't recommend people invest BTC there. That is completely clear. I've done that on multiple forums and chats. If you don't like that I don't agree with you, that is your problem. I have a right to my own views.

There are real problems and I do believe more hashing was sold than actual mining exists for it, but that isn't the same as there isn't any mining there. I think that is the reason the yield per MHS is so low now and also why it has taking so long for the site to recover from the hack. However that is just my theory.

(Apologies for the quote tree, not got time to prune and context matters more than brevity).

Numerous people, on numerous threads, in multiple different cultures and languages, have said they've not received requested withdrawals. ThorSWO offered - by way of "proof" - a bitcoin address. Analysis of the address showed that the transactions ThorSWO claimed - two 4 BTC withdrawals - didn't occur in a range of several days either side of ThorSWO's claimed date. Oh, and you've acknowledged withdrawals didn't work for you - and I have no reason to doubt you! To be honest, at this stage, without any credible explanation for past problems with withdrawals (and particularly with autoreinvest) even if withdrawals started going through for everyone, all the time, I'd still regard the past problems as a major red-flag.

Re: scam. Sure, lots of people claim it's a scam. You'll notice that I don't. I simply don't know - but it doesn't matter. Whether the problems people have documented is due to scrypt.cc being a HYIP, a ponzi, or simply a very badly run site - it's far too big a risk.

Re: ambiguity. Fair enough. My view is that anyone who doesn't err on the side of caution when it comes to giving any kind of investment advice is irresponsible. But you're right, that's my view.
