pm me your address please


miter_myles you didnt even place an order did you? your just a mean nasty person who enjoys putting people down.

Good luck with that. Unfortunately for me I believe in karma, making these refunds was not an option for me.

ive been using mtgox last to calculate refunds

either way its only going to make a difference of a dollar and some cents - it fluctuates frequently
thank you

what is your order #?

email me your order # and address to make sure your on my list

thank you for reporting this

I have refunded  nearly 100k worth of Bitcoin refunds but people dont like to report when you do something right. They usually only like to report your screw ups.

thanks again and sorry that it took so long.

Cablez I wish you had explained that to me before I put my foot in my mouth

remainder of refund on the way

LOL


Nice try Cablez, you paid by credit card and you were refunded in full on 01/12

if all your interested in is being hostile with me - you will not get a response.

For those who want to work this out like adults and get their money back. Let's get this done.

thanks.
Tom

I am sorry if I left this out, I have purchased a couple hundred BTC and have some more on the way - As soon as my block chain downloads
34700 left to download now I will begin todays refunds. If anyone emails me I will reply today.
Everyone will be refunded starting in 3400 or so blocks - people will post confirmations today. I hope this is enough information for you
Im not going to bicker with anyone Im just going to refund them, I dont care about the scammer tag anymore have a nice day.

I'm sorry your angry. I fucked up. I poorly managed this business. I completely fucked it up and its my fault but I did not do it with the intention of scamming anyone.


I will admit that although my FPGA business was going well until they became obsolete, I was way out of my league when it came to making an ASIC - I fucked it up, I ruined my business and if it makes you feel any better I feel like a piece of shit every day.


I should have a couple hundred BTC by the end of the day - the entirety of that will go to refunds.

There's nothing I can do other than pay people back and believe me or not I will continue to do so util everyone is paid.

I am sorry about my attitude, I did not mean to come off like that - please everyone can you find it in your heart to forgive me for my poor attitude. This is a very humbling experience for me.

When I feel like  I am being attacked - I tend to act immaturely and fight back and I am truly sorry.

Your right its no ones fault but my own that this happened but you can ask the people I was working with I never once had the intentions of scamming anyone. There's no point in it for me, I made nothing from this and I am spending my own money to pay it back.

I don't want you to feel sorry for me I dont want pity I just want you to work with me.

thanks to those who can feel at least some empathy towards me. My wallet has 36920  blocks left to download and then the refunds will begin.

People do not understand the costs that were involved while developing the project, and most people who are commenting on things have no idea what the hell is really going on.

I am sorry for my angry post last night and I apologize to anyone I offended, I was upset that I was being portrayed as a scammer when that was never ever my intention.

I have been paying back little by little every Friday because I was making a decent amount of bitcoins a week mining and I was also buying Bitcoins anywhere I could.

After this 0.8 debacle I had to re-download the block chain - right now it says 42073 blocks remaining so hopefully it will not be much longer.

By definition a scammer takes your money and runs. I have not gone anywhere and I am not "sittting" on anyone's money,when we were accepting orders  I was cashing those coins out quite regularly due to the violent nature of Bitcoin (I can't imagine any Bitcoin business that doesn't do this) and this was pre-bubble as well. Now I am in a situation where I have a bunch of angry people who justifiably want their money back. You will get your money back. As soon as this block chain finishes downloading today I will see what I have left and I will make as many payments as I can. I have also been contacted by someone who is willing to sell me a large amount of Bitcoins and I am going to work on a deal with him.

alternatives to payback:

Sure I could file for bankruptcy but I rent the house I live in and drive a 2005 chevy equinox worth maybe 5000.00
(on a good day) so its a much better situation for everyone for me to just pay everyone back,  and although we are prepared to go in that direction it would make much more sense for all parties involved

The percentage of people who have not been refunded versus those who have been refunded is minuscule.

please work with me. I have all the amounts and addresses on a spread sheet, and please when you receive your refund please post to the forum about it so people know that refunds are continuing to be made.

theres really nothing left to say if you want to continue to bash me go ahead, but I will continue to make payments until everyone is paid, that's  really all I can do.

Its odd because the vast majority of people have been refunded.


I'm labeled a scammer - yet I have refunded over a million dollars customers

yes OVER A MILLION DOLLARS.


would a scammer refund this large amount of money? I don't think so. I work every day to get people refunded
i have several people i am talking to over email daily to try and work something out.

this fork has made it very difficult

When .8 came out I installed it and It immediately corrupted my wallet (thanks devs)


originally i thought my hard drive was bad, so I bought a new one and painstakingly backed everything up and moved everything over
now FINALLY after many days of release the devs decide they should tell us they fucked up (thanks)
today I downloaded .7 and have been patiently waiting for my blockchain to download, im not sure if I will continue refunds or just buy a big crack rock and smoke it in a cave some where

but I am totally offended by this scammer tag. Anyone who knows me or knows the history of Btcfpga knows it is NOT warranted

I am NOT A SCAMMER. and anyone who knows me, knows this.



if I was a scammer I could be living it up easy some place warm instead of braving the same upstate new york winters I have been for 30+ years


btw: while we are on the topic who gave me the tag? What small dick mini mod gave me this without any proof what so ever??

i would love to know....


anyways

you can email me at btcfpga@gmail.com and we can either work something out or you can be a part of the bankrupcy case - which should be interesting considering the recent fork.

my attorney has compiled an immense amount of proof that this was nothing even resembling a scam and I welcome anyone who should attempt to prove this wrong to show up to court. I will certainly post the details of the bankruptcy court date as soon as we have one set.


one issue i have to face . i promised payments every friday and I kept those up until I ran out of bitcoins. If anyone has any idea how I can buy a large amount of bitcoins please message me. The largest amount I can buy from bitinstant is $500 worth ive looked and looked and its near impossible to make a large bitcoin purchase anywhere. IF anyone has any Ideas I would love to hear them.




i have contributed more to this community than most ever will. By isolating me you are losing someone who really cared about Bitcoin and worked every day to contribute to it. I am truly sorry the bASIC project failed. I would do anything to take it back. BFL has failed as well but at least I have the balls to admit it and not pretend like everything is OK and continue to hold your money for what amost a year now?   Sonny is a ball-less bitch and Josh, James and all of his other lackeys should be ashamed of themselves for promoting a TRUE scam. Maybe I was not able to do what I claimed I could do, but at LEAST I have the balls to admit it and am working my ass off to make it right.

To the ignorant assholes who have no fucking clue about this true Bitcoin man who contributed years of his life to this cause I got a message for you....  FUCK YOU.

to everyone else .... PEACE AND LOVE

to my customers dont worry - if you havent received your refund yet either work with me on it or Ill see you in bankruptcy court.

Take care and good luck Bitcoin - this fork is one of the best things that could of happened to me.

Sincerely
Tom
