Well you always see it with these type of people. They have some complex about them, and when they fail, they can't admit they are worthless and instead must fight, tooth and nail, to the very end. Which in BA's case will be a fiery hellstorm either brought upon by their worthless miners catching fire or court action.

I am sure they didn't send a cord with the unit, as they are scum bags and even though they said they would try their best, they just decided to say fuck it and proceed without even trying.
As for the 15 amp cord, that is more than enough to handle the load the X-3 should be using. So the problem then either lies in the PSU or the data center cabling. Unfortunately, since they are scum bags yet again and have yet to release any way to hook up a standard ATX PSU, like they said they would, trying a different PSU is currently not possible. I also highly doubt it has anything to do with the data center wiring.
Where to go from here, unfortunately I can't think of really any move forward. It doesn't seem like BA has any interest in helping their customers figure this out, and even if they did, their level of incompetence would likely require at least 2 weeks to find a solution, then who knows how long to implement it. The issue definitely seems to be within the unit, but without hooking up a kill-o-watt meter, it could be any number of things in the actual unit that is causing this.
Perhaps you could pressure BA really hard to send you another power supply to swap out? Swap the new one in, and try it again. I'd have better luck getting my dentist to pull a tooth for free. And it would be less painful. |

Please feel free to also post screenshots of your latest order with us. David, reposting screenshots is bad forum edicate, and makes you seem like an asshole for making people scroll (not that you need anymore help). And I would never post any details of orders I have through you guys. Although it is funny that I am currently providing more support for your fire hazard products than your company is. Care to continue to troll? Hey, btw, I will bet you any number of bitcoin that you want, that you will neither have a scrypt chip within specs by the end of this year, and that you will have a working 14 nm chip by the end of Q2 next year. |

HAHA they blocked my IP address, and now when I try to go to their website, I get a page that says...
"Asshole Detected!"
They actually took the time to create a webpage that directs certain blocked people to that calls them assholes. This has reached a new level of funny, I will definitely be TOR'ing around this in about 2 seconds and defaming/spamming their emails once again.

Depends on what power cord he was using? Has he stated what it was rated for? The X3 should not use a power cord that is less than 15A 120V for Merican circuits.

I am a little downbeat that your picture there doesn't have a chiefs player  lol I am wondering if your going to have all NFL games on live bets, I don't see tonight fame on there so I was just wondering? |

What they are getting at, is that your account is less than a day old, and so far you have tried to sell 3 Xbox One's, and many gift cards.
If your not USA, why is your "drop" in FL?

OP what method did you use on pd
to get +8 btc!?
same as this strat have to be patient what? dont understand? Pretty much a martingale strategy, you increase a bet after a loss in order to cover the previous bets loss. Possibly changing win percentage, but the outcome is still the same, to win the amount of the original bet. |

Well well well...absolutely no surprise there BA. You guys are the biggest scam artists of them all, hope you had fun mining with people's orders, and are just now planning to send them out, while offering people shit comp. Always remember karma is a bitch as you will never receive another dollar from any one of your customers that have previously ordered from you, oh wait, yes you will, because they need PSU's for your shitty product since you didn't announce how to hook them up with ATX PSU's. SURPRISE!

There is no way they will provide any more compensation. They obviously have more time as they are deleting posts now and banning people from their website, yet they still can't ship squat. So yet another fail by this company. People are being too compliant with what they are getting, why would they give anything else? They can continue to run it all in their datacenter and make tons of money off of everyone who paid for that equipment.

Um..this was a disaster. They basically took the most unprofessional and under educated engineers and combined it with the most unprofessional PR people they could find and wrapped it into a company.

They are bleeding for money! They will be gone soon. So many useless parts since they can't build a miner that they are hawking them onto everyone else. Don't buy that shit! Even if it is a little more expensive, go with their competitors. Help put a nail in BA's coffin and stick in the ground where they deserve to go.
Hard to get rid of parts when you can't build a working miner I suppose.

HAHA either they have no more money and don't want to lose any of their own on this failure of an endeavor! What a laughable offer! The scum of the earth goes lower, at least BFL didn't offer investors losses in a project they plan to cancel.
And wasn't the chip supposed to tape out last week? That's what the last update said, so BA is already missing deadlines and not doing what they said they could do. Eerie the similarities between this project and the SHA project, almost like looking back 9 months.
If anyone even remotely considers giving them any money for an already outdated chip, they deserve to lose their 5% when BA inevitably cancels this project. I will also start a fund for anyone who is willing to breach the NDA (remember you are outside of their country and BA can't really go after you and you can remain anonymous) and give up the specs and details of this chip. Not like BA cares about keeping your info safe, so why should you theirs?

OK! If you really want to make it right by your customers, then start by answering some simple questions, I will try to keep them very to the point that should require short concise answers...
Quote
We have always been upfront and never lied to our customers. We always kept them up to date with what is going on.
Why, when it was less than two months until February 28th, did you state numerous times that you were on track to meet your shipping targets, knowing full well that no tape out process has begun?
That is one instance, there are others that I or others could easily find.
Quote
We are currently improving in every way and will be trying to make up towards our customers during the following months.
How can you justify, making it up to your customers in the coming MONTHS? Your chips are already behind other manufacturers, and are only getting more outdated with each passing day. The X-1 comp is already practically worthless, and the X-3 is approaching that point.
Do you honestly believe that any single customer will make back the bitcoin they spent on your machines? And if so, please detail out how and why you think that?
Quote
Most of our customers are entitled to be upset for this delay but we think the garbage going on in this thread is unacceptable and must be pruned.
Please point out where any person has lied or spread falsities about your company (besides yourselves). Everything I have said is absolutely true, and has been based on either your actions or what you have said. So I am unsure as to what, "garbage" you are referring to.
Quote
The reason why we've tested on live pool is that cgminer --benchmark is buggy: reports the speed wrong (1.4Thash on X3) and does not turn on the SPI leds to confirm that the miner is working properly.
First time you have said this as an explanation. Sure doesn't sound like the, "We always kept them up to date with what is going on." spirit.
Quote
There are about 5 people flooding this that consider themselves to represent all our customers.
There have been many many customers of yours who have contacted me asking about what lawyers I have talked to and asking my opinion on what they should do. MinerSource is so bled for cash that they are knowingly breaking the law in an attempt to stay alive by not sending out more refunds, because so many people have requested them. I would say the proof is in the pudding so to speak.
Quote
We have contacted them in private messages to check what is the status of their order and they have indeed been unable to provide us with a valid order number which led ourselves to believe that at least one must be funded by one of our competitor.
I have previously stated that I ordered through MinerSource and have since gotten a refund for all of my orders. I am very happy with them, and commend them in putting up with this situation. As previously stated, I did have an order with you, you screwed me and many others. I am still unsure what, "competitors" you are referring to, as the real ASIC manufacturers laugh when they hear BFL or BA. Also, why would I tell you if I had an order still pending with you guys? You have threatened to without compensation for people who questioned you in the past, I can only imagine what you would do to my order that is still with you.
Here is a chance for you to answer some real questions from your customers. I doubt you will, and will opt to run and hide and delete my post (which I will repost), but regardless, your, "apology" (which is another reason I am pissed, because until that post, you have never once taken credit for the failures of this venture, its always someone or somebody else), doesn't mean much without action.

Sorry, except this one, this is one of my favorites. Smiley HAHA BA's biggest cheerleader and self proclaimed liason between BA and the community, Jumbley, who got his X-3 first because, "he kept a cool head and worked with them instead of against them" has his for sale on Ebay. http://ecointalk.net/topic/1228-jumbleys-x3/Here is his post showing the miner in all its glory... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Bitcoin-miner-Black-Arrow-Prospero-X-3-2000Ghash-second-/231300584172?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item35da96d2ecHere is the same miner/picture on Ebay! Pretty good feedback on the Ebay account, so I doubt it would be someone stupid enough to steal pictures to try and scam. It most probably is him. So BA, even your cheerleader's are jumping ship right after receiving their units, if that doesn't tell you they are trash IDK what will. Oh maybe the fact that you won't refund and keep them yourselves, you don't even want your own shit. |
