I've read your posts; and I'll say at the very least I agree with the original post in this thread.  My axe grinding comment was directed at a few others who continually post misleading and twisted statements as truth across multiple threads.

This post in particular pretty much sums up my suspicions:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=159104.msg1681314#msg1681314

What about that post is twisted or misleading?

Sorry; I'm trying to say I agree with what you've said. I'll reword that...
you'd better  Angry

That better?  Two separate thoughts kinda merged there...when this thread originally started I read your list and said to myself... "Nailed it."

GMaxwell apparently thinks BFL is a scam.

My thread has been renamed and moved to Scam Accusations.

I'm not sure I agree with that statement...

gmaxwell moved it because it's an accusation which belongs in the scam accusation forum; not because he thinks it's a scam.  Which is probably where all this discussion belongs until proven one way or the other...

Nice way of twisting words there.

Nuclear;

you are an interesting dude.    made a name 6 days ago and all your posts are defending BFL.   what is your background?   I am just curious?


6 days ago? Look again...

I'm not defending them...but at the same time there certainly are some people around here with an axe to grind.   Frankly I've seen some pretty outlandish statements made by BFL employees; and they've obviously missed multiple deadlines.  That said...people saying that moderators agree it's a scam simply because their threads were moved to the proper forum (scam accusations) is equally outlandish.

My background? Merely a curious observer in this mess.

You are correct.  Some of us do have a VALID axe to grind.  Try reading my posts in this thread to get at some legitimate issues they should answer for publicly.

Going in the completely opposite direction and back on topic...this post in particular pretty much sums up my suspicions:

11 posts in two years and all in the last six days?   you were posting a few days ago asking to get out of the newbie jail?  There is something wrong with the posting history function then.   Maybe clicking on your profile does not work?   My apologies, I do not understand the search function properly.   Maybe it shows up like that because you merged accounts?

There's nothing wrong with it.  My post count is accurate and my username has never been changed.

And then there are people like me who have the money to buy one, but can't get hold of BTC to pay.

 Sad

This x10.

I've had the money to buy a few...but the account with the bulk of said funds wasn't linked to Dwolla; which took until today to do.  Of course, then there's the 3-4 day wait to transfer there; and who knows how long to actually convert that to BTC.

And yeah; getting $6k in cash withdrawn to deposit it with one of those "instant" buy services isn't going to happen either.

I understand that a lot of people are angry because BFL has continually missed their deadlines, but I think this is more caused by incompetence rather than actual malice. Their project management skills are lackluster at best, but I'm not ready to call it a scam yet.

+1 on this.  Curious to see how it all plays out this year though.

I'll admit it's a bit puzzling how/why they still take orders for something that clearly does not yet exist.  Seems like even if they are legit and do launch a product they will be so far behind in manufacturing that it will be impossible.

I could be wrong; but; seems like a great way to end up in legal/financial trouble for the rest of your working life.

Seems like all this is asking for is newbies to come into this forum and post a bunch of nonsense and bump threads Sad
