Did you kill pirate......?

With kindness maybe...... I kissed his ass for 7 long months, just like everyone else.

I am however starting to feel better about the situation though.

If Payb.tc can't even get his withdrawal queue cleared (AND HE IS THE LARGEST PASS-THROUGH), that could only mean that I am pretty much fucked.
I think you are panicking.

What if Pirate has been offline for 12 hours?

What if Pirate has been offline for 12 hours?

Last I checked, he has been offline for approx 14 hours now. He disappeared 5.5 hours after I asked for a withdrawal, yet he also informed me that he has a BOT that checks his PMs, so no one can be too sure about WHEN he is actually online.

All he had to do was tell me that I couldn't get a withdrawal until the next day and I would have been happy with THAT.

He decided to avoid my request and get annoyed when I sent a second PM to him, after witnessing him on/offline a half a dozen more times after my first contact, all the while being ignored.
When I DID finally get a response, he said that I was in a QUEUE.....and NOTHING MORE.

He chose to avoid the situation and this is the result. I WOULD NOT HAVE EXPECTED A FAST WITHDRAWAL IF I HAD BEEN INFORMED OTHERWISE, USING PREVIOUS PERFORMANCE AS THE BENCHMARK FOR CONTINUED SERVICE.

THIS IS 100% HIS FAULT.

He was finally able to take the time to tell me WHEN my account would be CLOSED, but he couldn't have informed me when a withdrawal could or could not be processed ?

No, unfortunately.

Back when I first had $10,000 USD worth of BTC 'Invested' with him, I asked him for contact info and he REFUSED.

So, back in the days of 3% every 3 days Interest, I shut my mouth and let my greed take over....keeping me quiet.

The Admins can go back through my PM history and confirm everything that I am saying here. It makes no difference to me.

Let's all pray that it wasn't a ponzi after all and he can cover all deposits next week.

This will end with pirate closing his operations, everyone getting his coins back, and everyone feeling sorry for the lost opportunity.

Great, thanks everyone.

What a fucking joke.


Thank you. Thank you team ponzi.

Fuck you. Sorry but now I'm pissed.

Good job numbskull.  I will now be paying back my passthrough customers with my personal funds since I have no doubt pirateat40 will come through.

Libel for what exactly Einstein ?

People are welcome to sue me for Libel....once they understand what exactly that means, of course.

It's kinda funny.....

With all of this COMMUNICATION WITH LENDERS happening, WHERE WAS MINE ?

I NEVER CRIED PONZI AND I SAID MULTIPLE TIMES (SEE MY POSTS) THAT I BLAMED PIRATE'S LACK OF COMMUNICATION FOR MY FRUSTRATION.

I NEVER meant for this to happen. This end result was NOT my goal.

This is NOT my fault. I only wanted 114 BTC out of over 2000 available. I NEVER PANICKED.

Do you understand anything about investing? 

Has it never occurred to you that money 'tied up' in investments is not perfectly liquid, and that fact is part of why you get paid for the use of your cash?

Throwing a public tantrum because you were not instantly gratified is ridiculous.  And thus, you are being ridiculed.

You aren't the leader of Team Ponzi, but amplifying their FUD makes you a fellow traveler.

After a tiny 3 hour delay, you made yet another Pirate FUD thread about how awful it was that your ass wasn't being kissed fast enough.

OK fine, you didn't panic.  Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt was is full effect however.

Congratulations, you will be forever known to have a reputation = asshat in this community.  Better get a new account and start posting in the noob ghetto.   Grin

Sorry I have a life, and can't waste as much time on here as you spent stalking the people on your little sig.
Please note however, that I joined 1.5 months earlier than you.  So respect your elders, young asshat.  Wink

If you shape up and start making progress on learning about the concept of delayed gratification, maybe I'll tell you a story about the good old days.
The good old days being, of course, the golden age when you were not yet a member spreading FUD via redundant, panicky vanity threads.   Grin

Ignore them. Seriously.

The people who care the most about BS&T create terms like "Team Ponzi" and insult other members for withdrawing or blame the end of BS&T on single members.

The entire forum, however, is made up members that, quite frankly, don't care about BS&T.

Given the fact that it's ending, however, it would seem the cat is out of the bag now. Pirate was doing heavy arbitrage, he's lost control due to irrational demand, and we're definitely going to see the side effect of this. He had to purchase a bunch of Bitcoins here recently to get everyone their money back I suppose.

Price is probably going to fall now though, buying pressure is gone.

No way is he going to pay everyone back, principal and accumulated interest. Maths say he's under water.

Had his business been legit he would not have borrowed bitcoins at exorbitant rates but gotten a fiat loan from a bank.

what does your avatar mean? I don't get it.

Best I can figure it's "I love nevadacat"  or maybe "I love albertacat"

I always thought it was "I love black pussy".

I'm probably wrong though.
