I've been defending Gox pretty much the whole time, but this is starting to drive me crazy. MagicalTux hasn't posted anything on the forum since the 21st. It should have been obvious to me when they admitted their deadlines were just there to get people off their back, that they didn't take the notion of a timely and orderly restoration of service very seriously. :-/
When you have to wait for IRC groupies to get a message about the site's status. They don't take their business seriously. Otherwise updates would be made ahead of time on their support website.
