Este o masura de securitate adaugata in urma unui atac asupra forumului intamplat acum cateva luni. Desi la inceput ceva temporar, acum s-ar putea sa ramana asa pana se implementeaza un nou software pentru forum(dar mai trebuie ceva rabdare).

I do have moral guilt about it, because this site has all it needs to succeed but needed a better manager and proper funding. Sadly I didn't find the right guy for it.

Avand in vedere ca locul 3 este impartit de bo1ka si AmunRa cred ca cel mai fairplay ar fi ca locul 3 sa se imparta. Sunteti de acord?
Trimit acum cate un PM castigatorilor pentru a-mi da adresele. Felicitari!

Guys, timeout for a bit.
Deadgiveaway, nice of you to show up here. I haven't mentioned your alias(or name, or anything else) in here because I respected a part of our agreement: your wish to remain anonymous. As the wish for your involvement to not be public.

Speaking of terms of our agreement, let me name a few:

- Buying BitsPoker for the amount of 12 BTC(I think under $1500 at that day) and 50% of future profit. Changing the ownership of the domain wasn't discussed, but I wouldn't have had anything against it.
- Handling expenses: hosting, development and promotions.

Are you sure you respected our agreeement(talking about the second one)?

I sticked around from the start(haven't absented more than a day or two without announcing), helped with everything that I could and spent a lot of time developing for BitsPoker. But not too long after his funds 'ran out' and blamed the freerollers. I made deposits into BitsPoker (0.35 lately) and also paid for a number of things, like the sponsored GaB forum or hosting. This wasn't my attribution.

To be honest, I had a great time talking with him and considered him sort of a friend, his attitude changed a lot in the past couple of days though. But that's another story.

I never said I didn't have access to email. I did and helped responding to some, or helped him formulate better replies. But from day one he was to be in charge with this. [Someone from my country did contact admin@bitspoker.com to ask me personally a question(because he saw my signature at bitcointalk and he didn't have an account here)].

How can I be more straightforward than this? I won't fuel his ambition to make my name dirty and put the blame on me(weak attempt dude).
I've been completely honest in my community and in the larger Bitcoin community and have zero interest in ruining my reputation.
Z3Moons, you saw my name, you saw my involvement, is this a typical scammer behaviour? In all fairness, not saying Deadgiveaway is a scammer, just un unexperienced guy who had the money at the time but didn't know how to do manage the site. My regret is that I should've looked for somebody less anonymous and more experienced, it appears that my gut isn't always right(lesson: learned).

I really don't like drama and conflict, but I want to clear my name.
Also, this:
You were never hired. You bought the site with 12 BTC(around $1.5k at the time) and giving me 50% of future profits(which were 0). Then invested the rest in the site(of the top of my head under $500). Those funds weren't enough to cover the promotions you added and I asked you a number of times if there is enough to sustain the freerolls.

I don't want to blame you or anything, I think you were just in over your head(yeah, I didn't turn 180 degreese like you and started talking crap).

Now, if we could harness all the energy spent in this thread and do something good with it, we would all be happier. Don't you think?
I'd be willing to do some refunds out of my own pocket, to cover his mistakes.

I moved it in this thread because it was offtopic to that thread. I replied via PM to the questions I have been asked in PM. Please refrain from calling me names.
I wasn't the one managing BitsPoker and haven't made a single satoshi out of it, on the contrary.
You guys want to talk and see what can be done about it, fine by me, I'm more than willing. But pe polite about it. Thanks.

PM sent.

Salut, bine ai venit pe la noi si spor la minat!

Salut, e ok la pret BitStamp?

Pai.. ce nu ai inteles? .
Eu nu minez, reporterul doreste sa intervieveze in principiu un miner.

V-am atras curiozitatea cu titlul asta, asa-i?

Am fost contactat astazi de un jurnalist care ar dori sa ia interviu unui miner. Va fi un interviu scurt, cateva intrebari si prezentarea aparaturii de minat.
Data interviului va fi maine, 15.01.2014.

Prin urmare, daca e cineva interesat(din Bucuresti), sa ma anunte!

I split the offtopic replies from the other thread.

BitsPoker was indeed started by me, but for some time now a great deal of it was sold to an investor under the premise that he would cover expenses(including running expenses and promotions).
I continued working at the project(didn't get paid or anything). I did respond to most of the PMs sent to me, but am not responsible for this situation.

I didn't delete these posts, because I'm not hiding anything. But however I would really like to help with the situation in any way I can.

Va multumesc tuturor pentru interesul acordat pana acum. Voi trimite un PM zilele acestea cu detalii celor ce isi doresc sa contribuie.
Cat despre afilierea cu Bitcoin Foundation, va exista un vot in cadrul viitoarei Fundatii legat de orice fel de afiliere. Totul va fi supus unui voit, asa cum este si normal. Am purtat discutii cu mai multe organizatii similare pentru a beneficia de experienta lor si de a invata din hop-urile pe care le-au avut si ei de trecut.

Daca mai ai nevoie, ne-auzim.

Super, avem egal .
Revin cu detalii.

Calm...

Ti-am ridicat si restrictiile asociate utilizatorilor noi. Bine ai venit si spor la vanzare!

Tuturor celor interesati,

Cred ca vorbesc in numele tuturor spunand ca avem un tel comun in a vedea Bitcoin promovat intr-un mod eficient atat in afara, cat si in Romania.
Anul 2014 va fi un an mare pentru Cryptocurrency asa ca propun sa incepem sa vorbim despre punerea bazei unei organizatii non-profit cu urmatoarele misiuni:

Promovare:
Comerciala
Comunicarea cu diferite firme si corporatii cu scopul de a le explica beneficiile cat si notiunile de baza ale Bitcoin, plus lobby si consiliere pentru a implementa Bitcoin.
La evenimente
Participarea la diferite evenimente nationale si internationale din domeniul IT si nu numai cu scopul de a promova Bitcoin in Romania si in general.
Organizare Evenimente
Organizarea diverselor evenimente de tip conferinte, meetup, adunari sau chiar si workshop-uri.
Consiliere juridica
Afaceri care doresc sa accepte Bitcoin si au nevoie de consiliere legala, dar si ajutor in a implementa Bitcoin ca metoda de plata.
Sponsorizare proiecte
Sponsorizarea proiectelor romanesti in special dedicate planului local.
Relatii cu presa
Persoanele din presa vor putea lua legatura direct cu persoane in masura sa vorbeasca despre Bitcoin in Romania, sau in general.
Pana acum, tot apareau informatii incorecte in media din cauza faptului ca nu au putut verifica anumite informatii.

Am vorbit deja cu persoane din cadrul Bitcoin Foundation si ar fi dispusi sa inceapa un program de afiliere. Si Bitcoin Alliance of Canada saluta aceasta initiativa.
De subliniat: Orice fel de afiliere/acord/parteneriat va fi dezbatuta si supusa votului in cadrul viitoarei Fundatii.
Legat de Bitcoin Foundation, pur si simplu am mentionat ca am discutat cu persoane din conducere, pentru a denota faptul ca m-am interesat si ca stam pe pamant solid cu aceasta initiativa, fiind in legatura directa cu cat mai multe organizatii Bitcoin din cat mai multe tari este si va fi un avantaj pentru binele Bitcoin-ului in general.

Vreau sa ma implic!
Oricine este invitat sa se alature initiativei! Chiar si doar cu o parere, un sfat sau orice altceva. Cineva cu experienta in infiintarea unei organizatii non-profit ar fi perfect!
Am sa revin cu update-uri.

Salut!
Apreciez implicarea, totusi nu este chiar prima comunitate romaneasca(a se vedea locul unde postam acum).
Intr-adevar, este nevoie de un portal .ro dedicat crypto, dar ar fi pacat sa se inceapa de la 0. Fapt pentru care deja am vorbit acum ceva timp cu theymos(adminul bitcointalk) pentru a gasi o solutie care sa ne permita sa avem sectiunea romana si pe alt site. Avantajele ar fi destule: se pastreaza toate posturile, toti userii, etc.

In alta ordine de idei, cred ca sustinerea Bitcoin in Romania ar trebui sa fie facuta si printr-un canal un pic mai oficial si mai focalizat. A se vedea Bitcoin Foundation sau alte organizatii din diferite tari.
Bitcoin Foundation au si un program de internationalizare si deja sunt in discutii cu ei in legatura cu asta.

Concluzia mea umila ar fi ca nu are rost sa se produca o scindare.
