Paid to work in the forums vs. an employee on the payroll.

Dogie's "official" status would be lovely to know but let Bitmain clarify that relationship.

Given all the backlash towards his responses in Bitmain threads even if he is helpful I can't see how it is benefiting Bitmain at this time. Seem like many people have been needlessly antagonized by Dogie and many a thread seems to be riddled with Dogie defending himself rather than promoting solutions for Bitmain customers.

Here is hoping that those like pekatete look beyond Dogie and get in contact with an actual employee at Bitmain. Having met some of the Bitmain people they are more than willing to learn from errors and will do what is required to fix problems. Here is hoping that the community has not given up on Bitmain they are trying to make things better. Here is also hoping the S5 is a solid machine. I own a couple of S2 still running hard 24/7 on an altcoin.
