We will take what Zhou has proposed into consideration and discuss it with relevant parties. The issues of misrepresentation were not amenable despite numerous talks. Our silence was called into question the same time we were being misrepresented. Despite our best efforts this was unavoidable. We apologise but we are happy that Zhou has stated many things which, if there is full disclosure, will be shown to be lies and misrepresentations.

With full disclosure I believe our actions will be understood. Without full disclosure, our reputation may remain damaged. If that is the case at least we can say we spoke up.

I swear to god that your posts sound like the robotic non-responses which the "MtGox Support" account posts - and they're just as infuriating.  Do your organisation a huge favour and get someone who can write plain English to compose your forum posts.

Nobody cares about you.  They care only about where the buck stops in terms of recovering their money and they want to hear from the person responsible for that - not some nameless, faceless intermediary.  If the shadowy owners aren't prepared to reveal themselves, then they need to have their lawyer or their accountant in here speaking for them, not a screen-name with no identity and no authority.

I think also this is why they are now hiding details from you, because you are not a team player any more.

Pontius Pilate was a team player.  The "team" purposely hid the change of ownership from Bitcoinica customers.  They still refuse to answer questions about who now owns Bitcoinica and they absolutely deserve any suspicion and negative assumptions their deception has created.  Do you really think they would have hidden this information if they thought the Bitcoin community would embrace the new owners?
