Why does everything have to be so darn odd? Does avalon like the attention and drama?

Complete opposite, We did some time tables and realized our greatest time waster was us smashing trolls and "convincing" potential buyers in a market where demand far exceed supply. Frankly speaking at this point we are not even going to deal with slander and other false comments.

"Truth does not become more true by virtue of the fact that the entire world agrees with it, nor less so even if the whole world disagrees with it."

So instead of demonstrating a product you will just feed on the greed of bitcoin users to take your words as truth with no evidence and make
enough sales anyway? That is how you guys roll?

Confucius says, Never impose on others what you would not choose for yourself.

Doesn't mean the individual members of Avalon would have bought from themselves if the situation were reversed. Nothing was imposed on any of their customers.

You're in a business selling a product when a competitor announces something new which will destroy yours. You don't have the funds to finance the R&D yourself or you don't want to risk them and you're to small and/or unorganized to get outside funding (no documented margins, no prototype). Add on top of that a greedy community (we're all talking about currency here) I think they made the most logical decision, the purchasers don't even have that much recourse if things go south. Look at bASIC, people who paid with bitcoins are/were completely dependant on the honorable nature of Tom to return BTC purchases unless someone wants to test it all in the court system (not likely to be profitable).
