Looks like Kano is angling for more free hardware vapourware from BFL?
Ethically challenged people stick together. If you find nothing wrong with the ethics of BFL on this and combine that with ignoring their total lack of business ethics and economic damage they have done to thousands then you are part of the problem Kano. The premise that BFL is attempting to prove the flaws in the system of trust ratings seems a lot more than disingenuous given the fact they picked the targets that benefit BFL. What their experiment proved is many people hate BFL and rightly distrust them. You don't get that sort of reaction without some justification.
No, I've had no contact with BFL for a long time (except to unexpectedly receive in the mail last week a $5 nexus cable I paid for a year ago
)
I don't expect to receive any hardware from them, nor do I care to contact them about it.
Meanwhile, yes continue to post shit and then decide that since you posted it, it must be true, even though anyone with half a brain can actually read Josh's post.
It is about gaming the feedback system here at bitcointalk.
And he has stated that he has told Theymos he is doing it.
Now if the system wasn't able to be gamed, then what Josh is doing would have no effect.
Oddly enough, if you check the forum now, the feedback system is disabled.
Why would that be?
Anyway, yes you can have your psychological problem dealing with Josh and attack any post he makes and say it's all lies ... or you could note that in this case, it would seem the post is actually useful.
See, if there wasn't this problem you have, your post would have been something along the lines of:
"That bastard over at BFL is screwing up my feedback.
Damn, and the result of it may be that bitcoitalk might do something about the feedback system coz it's not reliable."
The targets they chose are 2 people they don't like and the forum owner.
Seems pretty normal targets for anyone to choose:
2 people they don't like
The forum owner to make it quite clear it's not some hidden underhanded tactic.
Yes most people hate BFL coz they lose money buying hardware from them and BFL is always late delivering everything.
Oddly enough the 'losing money' is true of pretty much every hardware supplier, including you.
BFL wins the cake for being the worst at delivering late.
