Who are you? You seem to be somewhat emotionally invested in this organisation aside from your financial investment with them. How are you privy to all this insider info from Cointerra? It would be silly FUD if there were actual evidence, as opposed to just yourself constantly insisting that we should take yours and their word for it.

i think I've given my background plenty of times... I'm a tech entrepreneur... with a background in computer games.. but also, long ago silicon... (my team designed the Super FX chip)... I've taken two companies public... and am working on my third (online poker). Bitcoin isn't my day job, its a hobby but one where I've invested quite heavily into mining gear... so hopefully I've demonstrated I'm a geek with a biz background who has low tolerance for trolls and for spreading FUD about any company, whether it be kncminer, hashfast or cointerra.. or any of the others. I just have a huge dislike for fud and untruths and some of the silliness thats said in these forums...

it seems to be de rigeur these days, when someone chooses and orders a miner from company X.. some people seem to feel the need to jump into company Y and company Z's miner forums and spread FUD for no apparent reason other than to make said people think they made the right choice and try to put down everyone else's choice. for no reason. just insanity. also perhaps some of the oldern day bitcoiners perhaps enjoy believing a few too many conspiracy theories. maybe it goes with the territory.

anyway, who am i? I'm definitely not one of cointerra's largest customers but i think I'm most likely in their top 20. perhaps even in their top 10. I've made a big enough order with them to call them up often and find out whats going on.

And.. i have to stress, i am in the same position with hashfast (i have a big order with them and i call them up regularly to discuss whats going on!).... and am also a medium customer of KnCMiner.. not because i don't think its a great company.. its awesome and they've done a stellar job.. its just that the price i got from KnCMiner wasn't as good as the prices i got from Hashfast and Cointerra.. so it was simple economics that i ordered more from the ones that were lower cost (taking into account the difficulty forecast).... Sam told me i was definitely in their top 50.

I also ordered some BFL.. which is trickling in now (I've had one Little Single, just arrive this week after ordering it in February!!!! and 4 Jalapeños are on the way). All of them are wayyy too late for me to be interested so I'm auctioning them off. I also own two small BitFury systems. I have never owned an Avalon, though i was once an AsicMiner shareholder.. and did quite well so i exited happy.

Happy now?

And if you want to google me.. go ahead... or just click here... I've no secrets.. https://www.google.co.uk/#q=jez+san

I'm fully aware of the significance of Jez San in the computing and video games industry, but how does any of this prove you are him? Googling "Jez San", will prove precisely nothing.

Is there a verifiable Jez San account on Linked In, or possibly twitter? Can we cross verify this, as I will state, for the record, that for aerobatic to be the actual Jez San is quite a claim (for those who are unaware of Jez San's significance as the entrepreneur behind Argonaut Software).
