Good Evening All. This is my first Rant, so if you don't want to hear about my experiences with 50BTC, please move on and skip this post....You have been warned

...

So I wanted to spread my experiences with 50BTC mining pool and their support system. Now, I am not holding my breath, but 50BTC still owes me lots of BTC. As everyone pretty much knows, they were hacked and lots of BTC was stolen, and I did have hope as 50BTC gave the image that they would repay all legitimate missing BTC through a process and time. We users just needed to be patient and all should be well. Well, I have been back and forth with support providing "proof of Miners" "specs of equipment" and etc as noted below from Support messages; basically everything they asked for I provided as much as I could.... Then after these few short messages, support just disappeared one day and its now been like over 2 months since their last communication, which was on Jan 20th!. I have since been loosing my faith in 50BTC and that I will ever see these BTC back.... So anyways, here is what support has done for me, or their lack of support:

Hi,

Please, be a bit more patient.
We have to collect and process a lot of information to make payout queue.

Best regards,
50BTC support team.
Helpful? Click to give Miloslav Miloshevich thanks!

On Jan 20, 2014 at 8:35 pm is when they finally responded to my ~15!!!! emails/support requests!!!!

I never have heard back from 50BTC since this message was sent to me and I have since sent support another ~15 messages/requests asking for updates, or just any type of communications at all from 50BTC.... and nothing at all!

At this point, unless 50BTC really stands up and starts to correct all of these miners accounts, I am really at a loss on why these guys don't just close shop and realize they have failed MISERABLY and lost thousands of miner's hard earned BTC!!!!

Don't get me wrong, shit happens and I know that and it would be one thing if they were actually responding to support requests/messages and giving out updates or even posting them to their support website for mass updates and actually start to pay people back, but it doesnt seem like 50BTC is doing much of anything, and this is just ridiculous from my point of view!!! I just wish there was another way of getting BTC back from 50BTC without a REAL mess with legal and etc...... Anyone?

ok, that is the end of my rant and raving

!! lol, but seriously, I really do hope someone from 50BTC picks up this mess and does something with this great pool!!! This pool at one time was really solid and was packed with features, and it does look promising now with their revamp... BUT they NEED to pay back their users if they have any REAL hope of being able to make a come back into the mining pool scene with all the other pools out there now!!!

If they do not fix all of this mess ASAP and start to seriously pay its user-base back I believe its a HUGE MISERABLE FAILURE !!!! And unfortunately if they do fail, pools like this one is what really gives the naysayers and haters more power on negative parts of BTC as a whole!!.....Shitty if you ask me.....

Sorry for the really long post, but just one last question for all of you 50BTC users, has anyone gotten any of their BTC back at all from 50BTC??? Even just a fraction payment from their hack a few months ago?

Thanks for reading this long winded rant!!! Back to your normal reading
