Anyone named jake(rs) + Bitcoin industry = not to be trusted.
Also, i find that gif image highly suspect. I bet you can replicate it in Chrome with the elements toolbar quite easily.
The point I'm getting at is this isn't just suspicious/shady behavior in itself. The reason why I posted this was because 999Dice claimed to have a bank of 3000 coins and was taking large bets and then left bitcointalk when myself and tomatocage asked for proof. If people choose to use the site I won't stop you, but it is important to warn others to prevent a potential future scam. I agree 100%. |

I didn't wait almost a year. I posted all through that thread asking where my coins were. I've sent PMs here, emails to Bitinstant, and have spoken to roughly 4 other bitinstant support people since this occurred. I almost forgot about it completely until I started consolidating accounts in December and remembered I had never been made whole on this. Again, personal attacks aside, this happened on your watch, and you are every bit responsible for it. If I don't have promises in writing very soon or my coins sent, I will take this to court. It will be a hassle for me, but it's necessary in this case.
Your move.
All you send me was an Order ID via email, send me some more information, what the situation is, and lll try to help you best I can. What other information do you need? You say yourself you have my order number still. Please let me know what you need from me, if you're honestly going to try and help me out this time. If this is going to be another song and dance for a couple more months - i'll pass and take the judicial approach. |

Those coins are still missing for me, and the addy only showed up on the blockchain after sending it some dust. Anything else I should try before writing off these coins? Anyone have ANY idea how this could happen?

I actually have an issue of missing coins dating back to Feb of 2013, and despite all the real life hassles he has going on, Charlie has gone out of his way to ensure my problem was addressed now. I can't help but respect that.
I shouldn't have spoken so soon. I should have known. Another 2 months gone by with no response or update. Tried sending them an email once or twice during these months and they were ignored. I am forced to seek other avenues to recoup my losses with Bitinstant. Shame that it had to turn out this way, I actually supported Charlie previously and had hoped this would be resolved. I was sorely mistaken. I'm no longer part of the company, email gareth@bitinstant.com I'm sure he can help. You mean the guy you forwarded my email onto when we first spoke? I wrote you and him when i sent emails asking for the status of this. So he has received at least 2 emails from me, and the original you forwarded onto him, and I have received no response from any of them. Must be nice to just sever ties and wash your hands of responsibility. Meanwhile, customers who trusted in you are getting fucked over. I take back all the cordial and supportive things I said to you in our private messages. You are just another one in a long line of early adopters who are completely irresponsible and selfish. |

Well, technology keeps moving forward, what if we'll have Quantum computers in near future? Do you imagine how fast we could mine bitcoins then? 21 million wouldn't be a problem..
This post demonstrates that you haven't even read about the fundamentals of Bitcoin yet. |

Just like CNYCoin was going to be the exclusive coin used by all of the Chinese!
Get over it, no altcoin will ever topple Bitcoin. There's too much support behind it nowadays. If half of you 'get rich quick' altcoiners would pull your head out of your collective asses, you would realize there's much more money to be made by backing Bitcoin instead of detracting from it. Maybe one day you all will wake up and stop flooding the market with utter shit.

We wont have time to see double digits again. This landslide stops short of 280 tops.

Apparently the 'refund account' was kept on Gox, thus all refund monies are gone. LOL @ these excuses.

I have a code good for 3 months of XSplit Premium service. Asking $20 in BTC. I can email/PM the code, snail mail it, take a photo and send, etc. I will require the buyer to send first unless you have better ratings than me.

move to another assest
like what, dead people printed on pieces of paper? that sure sounds more stable long-term  see, when bitcoin reaches five digits it will be the thing that you sell other things for. you don't now say "if USD reaches 0.02btc, I'll sell all my USD and move to another asset", same way you won't consider your bitcoins as something you need to "sell" - they will be your currency. Bitcoin, while a phenomenal break through, will not end up being the defacto standard of digital payments. Something better and more regulated will come along/get approved and take it's place. Diversity is key. |

Rawted,
Have you tried running bitcoin-qt with -rescan flag?
right click on bitcoin icon. go to properties, and where it says C:\Windows\Program Files(x86)\Bitcoin\bitcoin-blahblahblah.exe (or whatever yours says) add -rescan, run it, and let the blockchain resync.
then go back and remove the flag because you wont want to resync after everytime you run the client.
Yes sir, and thanks for your help. I replied to your PM. It seems to be almost 2.7btc I am missing now, however only 1.3 btc is showing as unconfirmed in 0.8.6-0.8.9, whereas it's showing as conflicted in 0.9.1. Nothing to the address in question, and none of the tx ids pop up on blockchain.info. |

Still missing those coins. It really is quite perplexing. The dates of the transactions with those coins are all from the june/july 2013 range and up until 0.9.1 were valid confirmed coins, and are now conflicted transactions and missing coins. Does this mean I was passed bad transactions previously and it's only now showing up? If so, how were those coins spendable prior?

Glad to see this happening, but their prices are ridiculous. 5-10% MSRP markup at minimum on each weapon it seems. Accepting BTC should make things cheaper, not more expensive. You'd be better off watching slickguns.com for a deal and converting to fiat then.

Updated to 0.9.1 again, ran it, and now those coins are out of unconfirmed balance and listed as 'conflicted' in transaction log and I don't recognize the address they were sent to.  |

I keep small amounts in my pc wallet for casual spending. I applied the 0.9.0->0.9.1 update and once done syncing, the client told me that my database was corrupt and wanted to reindex it. I allowed it to, and sometime during the sync, 1.3 BTC went from confirmed to unconfirmed and hasn't moved since (24 hours or so I'd guess). Any ideas/suggestions?
If you look in the transaction list do you see any tx which are unconfirmed? If so check another source (blockr.io or blockchain.info) to determine if the tx is indeed unconfirmed. No, but i just noticed that it reverted me to 0.8.6.... How is this possible? All tx before 7/30/2013 are gone, and those coins are still unconfirmed. I was at version 0.9.0 prior to updating..  |
