Ok, so who is complaining about the compensation? They are being given a full refund, more hashrate or a combination of the two. What more do you want?
You're the one that is complaining. You want a higher score in that category than you're entitled to at this point, or any other company gets. Ship more, be patient, receive a higher score for this generation.
We stop taking orders and that's not an "effort to change that?" LOL... what is an effort to change that then, if not that?
I'm not saying stopping taking preorders isn't a good thing, but you have to replace it with something. The wording of that category might be in the negative but thats because it assume that all companies are actually selling something. Ie if you're not using preorders, you're selling you're main revenue and business model based of in hand hardware. You're developing and taking the risk off the customers backs and putting it on your own. It seems that's what you're heading towards so good on you. But you can't eat the cake until its baked yet - be patient and you'll be rewarded.
You never said two weeks was in regards to shipping? Then what is it in regards to, pray tell? As far as being banned from the BFL forums, please provide actual evidence, not your supposition. Once again, you make claims but you can't actually back them up with evidence. You provide the evidence and I will explain to you exactly why that person was banned, with evidence to back up my claim. See, that's the difference between you and me. I back up my claims with evidence, you have yet failed to do so.
As far as "paying people to discredit you." What a pompous, self important ass you are. It was about showing what a joke the trust rating system is, not about you. I don't care one whit about you. You were just a convenient demonstration piece, being as you are active in spreading false information on the forums, so a logical choice for the demonstration. The fact that you are upset about it proves my point, so thanks for confirming that the trust system is a broken joke. How is that discrediting you, if the trust system works? If the trust system doesn't work, how are you discredited? It's not about you and never has been. Deflate your ego a little bit, man.
I was referring to the fact that
two weeks had become synonymous with BFL and it doesn't just happen overnight. Sure the original statement gets taken out of context and sensationalised, but it gets done so around a core theme which in this case is 'its coming soon, in a bit, bit more, bit more, nearly there.' [Can we let this bit of the discussion thread die now, its hashed out more than a USB miner and gone a bit OT].
There was 290,000 members on the forums at the time. You chose Theymos as one. Why was I chosen as one of the other two? Why was it 'convenient' that I was chosen to be bombarded with negative trust out of all those possibilities? You could have chosen abandoned accounts, your own accounts or accounts you'd made purposely for the 'experiment' as you called it. Instead, you chose me. Why?
