"No reason to take this personal"
This is bullshit. You have people attacking someone's identity, and then people will assert, "they shouldn't get so defensive".
If this is an answer on my posts, you're mixing things up here. I speak only for myself and I have nobody else on my side.
This is a ridiculous assertion. These are REAL PEOPLE'S LIVES. You can't just go around calling people "scammers". I have been following Bryce since 2013. He wasn't the "developer" of Bitland, and was brought on recently to help scale the entire project because of his expertise in the blockchain.
1. I did not use the word scammer.
2. Of course it's about real people lives. But it's also about real peoples real money. And if a project does an ICO it should be transparent and give informations without hiding important informations and answer on some questions. Bryce made an interview, claimed that it's impossible to buy >50% of the supply, no matter how much money, but even in the interview he refused to detail that out. And this ICO is without escrow and he also said that they already move and spend funds - before it has ended. Never seen that before tbh.
The problem is, you have a bunch of assholes who are willing to research as far as the word "scam", but not willing to ACTUALLY research. It becomes very clear that one of the biggest problems Bryce encountered was SLANDER AND FUD.
And when you talk about "failure rate" of his projects, his success rate is MUCH higher than the average 92% failure rate of ALL start-ups.
Take a look into my posts: I did not speak about a failure rate. Not sure who did.
You say: "not willing to ACTUALLY research"
But I've listed up some points that are in fact questions.
Effectively, you have people in this thread spreading bullshit.
You claim you did "research" on Bitland and assert we were "hiding" Bryce as a developer, and that is complete bullshit, because you took 5 minutes to read an ANN thread and came to some ridiculous conclusion based on 5 minutes.
Please be more precise. I did not say I did research. I've said this: "I've taken a quick look into the Bitland-threads"
And no, it's not edited.
But the point stays the same. Bitland did not say that he is a Dev for Bitland. And the "just helped us - story" is kind of old. And surprise, that was also said about this project in the other TAO-Thread:
"Bryce helped us in developing the project to fruition and we appreciate his efforts and enthusiasm in bringing this project to the attention of his friends in the community."

(...)
This is the first project that is truly my own (...)
If I'm really interested I always look around everywhere I find informations. But I usually start with the presentations of projects on BCT - where teams announce their projects and ask for money if it's about ICO's.
And, tbh: I'm not sure why I should do research about you. Just because I've mentioned Bitland? It was Bryce himself who brought that up in his interview. I did not know that he is involved in Bitland. But if I would be invested in Bitland, of course, that would also be a question.
