(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.
Withdraws
were broken for at least two weeks. They have been working now for a couple of weeks. While the withdraws were broken there was two separate things that happened.
1) Some disappeared. A message on the site says a bug was found and audits are being done and those withdraws are being credited back to peoples accounts. I have heard on chat that it has happened. I didn't have that problem so I can't say more.
2) Many withdraws were credited back to accounts after a week and the autobuy feature was enabled on all accounts at about the same time. That happened twice.
Now withdraws are working, but very slow. I've had 3 paid since the withdraws started working. So you were incorrect in saying the site is broken and that people can't get withdraws. However, withdraw are currently painfully slow.
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.
Quoting or repeating information that isn't current is irresponsible. You clearly aren't using scrypt.cc and you only have second-hand information. Making claims based on second-hand information is irresponsible. It is fine to say there have been reported issues and to urge caution. I think you have stepped over that line. Why even get involved? There are plenty involved with scrypt.cc that are already reporting the problems. The scam cheerleading is just noise that actually confuses the issues. People look at is and say, oh, that is just rabble trolling for trouble. Well at least that is what I often think.
