Active Mining Thread (Troll Free)
by

We all know the problem with the multiple Active Mining threads and the many trolls.
We also know how the CEO of Active Mining has made multiple bad business decisions.

This is a moderated thread which will remove any troll post, where we, the betrayed shareholders, can discuss and organize to start a plan of action to retrieve what assets we can before the CEO of Active Mining loses it all.

Quit with the stupid graphics.
They only serve to annoy, and unless that is your purpose, they contribute nothing.
They only conversation that is important here is the one that involves Ken answer direct questions on what the progress of this fiasco really is.

Ken refuses to answer the important and persistent questions.
Several in our little friend community seem to feel that Ken and ActM is on track. That might be so, but it is not right that trading has not yet begun. Now, Ken has a team of at least three or four coders. Surely he could devote a little time to get trading happening. After all, he promised several times to do so.  Ken does lies and justifies it because he believes it is to either protect us or that when the company succeeds, we will all forgive him.

Dear Fellow (disappointed) Share Holders,

Why do you all think Ken ignores all requests and demands to restart trading?

He is skilled at ignoring postings that might be found as offensive. We saw Ken break down just once.

Tomorrow is weekly PR day. Will there be more lies and excuses or will Ken finally come clean and be honest about the state of affairs of Active Mining?

The price of bitcoin has gone below $700.
Gox is dying.
Ken needed bitcoin prices to go high in order to make active mining make a profit on paper.
Bitcoin price has dropped, difficulty has gone up.
There will be no profit.
It is predicted that Ken will shut down operations in a few days and come up with some excuse to legitimize doing so.
It is all over.

Ken-- Is today the day that you are permitting your beleaguered shareholders to verify shares and finally begin trading?
More delays, less confidence.
We will cease losing you Ken.  Do you really want that?

That COBOL Hollerith card, IBM 360 joke will go over the heads of those who were born after 1990.


Ken says the company is in good financial shape.

This is how much your shares are worth=(Total finances held by the company) divided by (total outstanding shares minus shares held by Ken and family)

Soon, Ken, your car, your house, the contract with eASIC, your plans, will be put into receivership and a better team of managers will be appointed by a judge in Missouri to take the remains of ActM and lead it to some salvage of profitability.




Ken- When will verification begin? Why have you lied deceived us about the date of the start of the verification process?

The verification process has begun when Ken started working on the incredibly complex COBOL code he plans to run on his IBM 360 server.
No lie.

Ken- Why do you avoid answering direct questions?

A full scale shareholder revolt, in which the shareholders actually organized and contacted a lawyer would not be very good.
You may believe that you will lead ActM to success, but if enough shareholders do not believe that, you will have a bit of a problem.

Satoshi disappeared because He did not need to be around.
He delivered His message, initiated the movement, and His job was done.
Time to ascend.


Why did Satoshi disappear completely? He could have stayed on the forums and could reply to our questions on bitcoin.

He should just return. Please. Thank you.

State of Florida attacks Bitcoin
by

on 09/02/2014, 15:57:11 UTC
First, read the articles at these links:

http://www.morningnewsusa.com/three-bitcoin-traders-arrested-in-florida-238060.html

http://www.dnaindia.com/world/report-three-arrested-in-florida-over-bitcoin-money-laundering-charges-1960172

http://www.theverge.com/2014/2/7/5390782/three-bitcoin-traders-arrested-in-florida-on-money-laundering-charges

Summary of those links is that the in Florida, the state decided to go after some localbitcoin traders for money laundering after setting up a live in person exchange.

Bitcoin is not cocaine. Bitcoin is not crack. It is not cannabis. It is not stolen guns with the serial numbers filed off.

There are a variety of forces that fear technology they do not understand.
There are a variety of forces that fear any technology that breakdowns international borders and barriers.

We, the people who support bitcoin, need to come out in the defense of the guys who were arrested in Florida and support bitcoin.

Do the right thing!

YOU PROMISED THAT VERIFICATION OF SHARES WOULD HAVE STARTED BY NOW.

Quit lying. Quit rationalizing your lies with excuses.

The time has come for you to do as you promised weeks ago.


When will you honor your word? When will you honor your promises?


When will verification of shares really begin?

KEN!!! Quit making excuses. Time really is running out for you.

Does anyone know the number of outstanding shares of active mining stock?
That is, the number of shares not held by Ken or his family?

Does anyone know what the value is of active mining? How much money in US currency and bitcoins does he/active mining have?

If you divide that amount by the number of shares held by shareholders, what is the value per share?

It is time to organize and either force Ken to liquidate the assets and return it to shareholders, or force Ken to hand over management of the company to someone or management team who can lead active mining to achieve some of its potential.

Thefunkybits may be right, maybe it is time to take some actions to persuade Ken to quit his nonsense and do the right thing.
What is the best way to persuade Ken to either do what the shareholders want and to fulfill his promises?
If this was a real company with real shares, we could organize shareholders to vote in a real board of directors and a real management team.
If we took some legal action, we could use legal means to force Ken to either accept proper management or liquidate assets.
Legal action requires organization and money. Could we organize enough shareholders to do this?
VE tried to influence Ken but in a harsh and unsuccessful way.
What would be the most effective way to persuade Ken to fulfill his promises?
FunkyBits---what are you suggesting we do?



Ken--- Start verification of shares now.

Ken why the fuck hasn't this been done yet??

Please no more lies about our shares until the verification process has started.
I've been buying some ridiculously cheap shares this week and I appreciate the opportunity but if you haven't noticed NOBODY is buying your walls anymore. Dumping Ukyo's/ACTM shares before we get the chance to trade is questionable and confidence has been lost in you by many. Your horrendous PR and grade-school spelling errors have apparently turned people off of buying since Wednesday (before that the strong buy volume had me shocked, but understandable seeing as .0005 is a steal).

Get it together ASAP. There's been enough excuses and bullshit, pissing off shareholders will not do you any good.
I would hate to have to rally the troops again to spam VMC phone lines to get some answers...

Ken --- How far along is the program you claim you are writing to do this?


Ken --- What are you doing all Sunday?

Ken --- What are you waiting for?  Start trading now.



Difficulty keeps rising and the only thing Active Mining produces is excuses.



Ever consider your audience too small?

Ken,

No more excuses.

Start verification of shares now, please.

The longer you wait to do this, the less confidence everyone will have in you.
The longer you wait to fulfill this particular promise, the more shame you will feel for not protecting those who supported you and believe in you.

Ken, When will verification of shares start? When will trading resume?
You owe us all an answer.

KEN KEEP YOUR PROMISE

on 08/02/2014, 13:28:47 UTC
Ken,

You promised that verification of shares would have begun by now.

You said in one of your weekly announcements that the following week you would begin the verification process.

Even the hardest core supporter has to be losing faith in you now.

Ken, you have made many promises which you have not kept.
Please keep this one and do whatever it is which needs to be done to start trading again.

KEN GET TRADING GOING AGAIN!!!!

KEN KEEP YOUR PROMISE!!!


Ken you've had another week go by without starting the share verification process, what's going on? Last you spoke all that was required was a bit of time to upload the program to a server.

What an interesting thought! Ken in jail!

We do know that he has had a few conversations with the SEC, or at least he has alleged that.

He also claims to have spent some guilders getting the advice of lawyers.

What happens if all the share holders who no longer have faith in the company sell?

The price will drop. If it goes low enough, some remaining believers will buy shares and the price would stabilize.

Then, every time Ken makes an announcement, the price will spike up. Eventually, unless Ken comes out with real working miners, the price will collapse and never return.

If Ken really does still believe in his company, it is in his benefit to allow the share price to fall as low as possible and then buy up those depressed shares.

Some people will think that is price manipulation, or insider trading, but it really is not. It would benefit him, because the more shares he has, if the company finally does succeed, he will own more of it and make more money.

His buying shares would show his own confidence in the mess he has created.

Let trading restart. Let the price go to wherever it should. Trust the market. 


This is just about Ken being paternalistic again. I bet he thinks he is somehow protecting all of us by delaying this one more week.

Enough already. Re-start trading now!


I just can't fathom why it has taken nearly two months to get these damn shares verified and listed on Crypto-Trade.

Seems like a few dedicated hours of spreadsheet work would do it.

Ken think of your own personal joy when you list the shares and the Negative Nellies finally get to cash out and vanish into the ether?   Do it for yourself, if nothing else!

If shares are ever released most of the cheerleaders on here will disappear so fast you'll wonder what happened.  Most of the supporters here are actually just trying to pump up enthusiasm so they can dump their shares and escape with some BTC intact.

Where will a washed up loser like Ken every find a fan club like this again?  I don't think he'll get quite as much of a thrill from the fat old housewives that volunteer to be prison pen-pals!
