I have been monitoring the thread closely, and the very day the btc-arbs admin responded I sent an email to him about my account as well and have not seen an email yet, or a deposit for that matter. I didn't lose a large amount as most other people, however I was at 1.13 BTC in legacy and left the trickle in the available balance because I did intend in the long run to invest more. Honestly if he would reopen the site and resume trading in my funds I would as well. If not, keep the .2 and send me back the 1BTC and I can pay off a bill.
The point of my investing was long term and the wife wouldn't ask questions about how much I have for the next dumbass thing she wants to do. I do think its bullshit that his daughter has to get threats, but I do feel like some transparency would have calmed a lot of people down sooner.
