I am someone with a Sept 1st order.. and I'll still be keeping my order. Anyone who ordered that early took a gamble. If people are so stupid that they need someone like YOU to tell them that then this community is full of idiots.

Easy there Mister Twelve-Posts Newbie... I guess that makes me the biggest idiot in this thread for having two June 25th 2012 pre-orders for Single SC 60 GHs units and still having hope that I'll eventually see something arrive on my door-step.

No sir.. you are misreading my post. You even quoted it. I have a Sept order, and I am keeping my order. The point of the statement was to say, that people who preordered took a gamble... or a risk. It is still a calculated risk, just like any other gamble, but it IS a risk. People don't need to see 1 person saying something a dozen times. That doesn't help anyone. In fact, when 1 person says something 12 times, it dilutes the effectiveness and makes them look like a whiney troll. If 12 people say it one time, it seems more legit and carries weight. People considering a preorder need to see it, but they SHOULD be doing their homework when making such a purchase. If they do even 30 minutes of looking up BFL in this forum they will easily find the info they are looking for even without certain people repeating themselves over and over and over. More specifically the people who act like a pompous jerk about it. Hell, one of the titles in the forum is "BFL fucks us over again." Anyone who does not do their due diligence before spending this type of money on a preorder is either an idiot, or that damn rich that they don't care about the money.

As far as me.. I still certainly have hope. People call me and others like me an idiot, but I did my homework. I knew when I put in my order that BFL would NEVER ship on time (October). I certainly didn't foresee them taking a whole year but what can you do? In fact, I feel there is a VERY good possibility we will still see our orders on our doorsteps. Now I'd say I'm 50/50 on whether or not that will be in the next month or two. But like I said... that is the gamble. Put all your chips in one company and not the other is always a risk. If I would have had the cash, I would have invested in BFL and Avalon batch#1.

And no.. people with twelve posts aren't newbies. They just post less. Been reading this forum daily since I got into bitcoining which was about this time last year.
