A new withdrawal attempt of an even larger amount of BTC is in pending status, and now has been for more than thirty-six hours. I am still far under my limit on withdrawals. Deposits are working fine however (of course) and still come with no warning that you will likely not be able to withdrawal your funds without entering into a seemingly endless cue of support ticket requests. Meanwhile, BTC is rising, and my money is trapped on Cryptsy. Not cool all around.
Making matters worse, earlier last night I initiated a withdrawal, then confirmed the email link, and then received a message on Cryptsy's website that my withdrawal had been confirmed. I logged back in hours later only to see that no record of my withdrawal now existed. My balance was just sitting there like nothing happened (after a withdrawal that Cryptsy's own website had confirmed). Nothing was listed as pending or held back for a withdrawal. Again, all this was after confirming the email link affirmatively. Pretty strange.
Additionally, I got in an argument on the chat box today with JShock who was telling everyone that he "solved my withdrawal problem" and that the problem was that I was "over my limit", which I am not. He presented this as if it was a great revelation and declared that the problem had been "solved", when it wasn't. He then continued to argue that a "Tier 1" limit on Cryptsy allowed a maximum of $2,000 in crypto to be withdrawn MONTHLY, when, in fact, the reality is we were all told it was $2,000 DAILY up to a limit of $10,000 monthly. Upon my crying foul that what he was trying to do was shady (change the limits a second time, after people had already verified themselves), he said that it must be a mistake on the website and that the real limits for Tier 1 were supposed to say $2,000 a MONTH, not $2,000 a day. After further pushing by me that what he was arguing was ludicrous and shady, and everyone else chiming in that Cryptsy's own website says that the Tier 1 limit is 2k daily up to 10k monthly, he then appeared saying that he had wrong information and that the 10k monthly limit was in fact correct. He blamed his mistake on a "typo" and said he had been given "bad information". He then expected everyone to be totally cool with what had just happened.
I find it virtually impossible to believe that JShock, a high-level officer of Cryptsy, is not extremely well aware of what the actual limits are, especially as new limits are the biggest change Cryptsy is currently implementing.
My hope is that JShock's behavior wasn't a portent of Cryptsy attempting to change things, yet again, to a $2,000 MONTHLY limit, instead of a $2,000 DAILY limit. No one signed up for that! All a change like that would do is allow Cryptsy to hang onto TONS more of their properly verified users money for a very long time.
A change like that would clearly point to insolvency.
Everyone already knows that anyone who is newly verified there signed up for a withdrawal limit of $2,000 daily up to $10,000 monthly.
Everyone knew that three days ago, especially JShock.
End of story.
Following that debacle, I pressed the issue that Cryptsy really should be warning people that they might not be able to withdrawal anything prior to making deposits, and was quickly asked to "stop" by JShock. JShock then secretly banned me again. This was again done WITHOUT ANY MESSAGE APPEARING ON THE SCREEN SAYING I HAD BEEN BANNED. During the time that followed, I took screenshots of our entire, ridiculous conversation, instead of racing here to complain. By the time I was done, I was able to chat again.
This is the latest news. Meanwhile, my BTC is still stuck on Cryptsy's site, BTC is rising, and I am a fully verified user who is well below my limit on withdrawals.
It will take me a long time to post all the screenshots of the JShock conversation (it's like 40+ shots), but I might do that pretty soon here if my withdrawal doesn't come through pretty quickly (and all subsequent withdrawals thereafter). I am sure anyone who reads the full conversation will find it very shocking.
I am planning on being pretty active in the chat box as all these changes come into play. If you haven't noticed, I have been trying to help keep Cryptsy's users safe, as well as been begging Cryptsy to take responsibility and clearly warn people that their site is experiencing enormous technical difficulties with withdrawals. They haven't done that, and there is no justifiable reason as to why. They should have done that weeks ago, if not over a month ago. This fact should be clearly posted on their website.
I don't intend to be antagonistic, as long as I am not being fed crap by Cryptsy's officers that my problems have been solved, when they haven't.
Should I disappear from view in the chat box for longer than a day, please assume that I have been secretly banned from chatting by Cryptsy in an effort to silence my voice. In that case, if you want to communicate with me, you will be able to communicate with me here. Please remember that, and bookmark this link if you need or want it later...
