I am only associated with BTC-e because i am a mod. Just like Balthazar, Abbeytim and Bettor. The only difference is that i have no close relationship with the owners of the BTC-e. I was offered the job of moderator... I am from Canada.. basically i just ban people from chat for breaking the rules... I can count the times i've talked to BTC-e administration. Basically i'm saying that people are jealous because they didn't get to mine a bunch of NVC the first days.. which is what a lot people did... you could have mined something like 10k or more, the first days.. depending on your speed..
