He is aware of the thread. I believe the biggest issue is that there's not been updates on the site. I've tried to explain that it's being worked currently and the new release is getting pretty close although there's still work to do.

This speculation is just that... speculation and I doubt it's going to change until there's a new release. Of course this is my personal opinion so feel free to disagree. As I've mentioned in multiple occasions, nobody is hiding the fact that there's been delays. I find it pretty silly to call the site a scam while things are being worked on. Right now it feels more like pressuring the site to rush out a release just for the sake of it.

I have personally seen what kind of progress has been made (for example how the new design is going to look like) but if people don't believe that, I'm unsure what else to say. The upcoming quarterly report should contain information and possibly concrete evidence of what has been done.
