1. You refused to let TF "finish" any work. Another has looked at the code and disputed some of your claims.
Wrong, TF is encouraged to finish the job and post his new and improved "Finished Product" that I paid him for. However it won't be hosted on my server.
Which claims were disputed? obviously your opinion is worthwhile, but the specifics/links to facts are necessary for any credibility.
2. You used bad judgement by paying the total cost upfront
True, but if TF was trustworthy, this would be irrelevant.
3. [...] You were not [scammed]. You didn't like the product so you hired another for less money. What were the terms of the contract? Post said terms.
Which contract? What good would that do? It seems regardless of the contracts/ btc paid, many people here don't want to condemn TF for scamming.
4. Carlos L claims no code was changed, you stated it was. Which is it?
I don't recognize the references. The specifics/links to facts are necessary for a more detailed response.
The final unchanged version of TF code he gave me as his final product has been posted. AFAIK that's undisputed. It is non-functional.
TF could provide his version of the site showing how anyone supposedly changed it.
The whole site is being developed into a usable product, so that is being changed. Otherwise, as I wrote, not sure where your references are coming from (unless you're using unsupported statements made by TF).
5. You have made it nearly impossible to get a judgement by interfering in the arbitration process. [...]
Wrong and unsupported by the facts.
I'm the only person who filed an arbitration claim and TF admitted to interfering with the arbitration process by slandering me to judge.me and failing to file an arbitration case anywhere as his writing shows:
I said I was going to contact judge.me support because you're not identifying yourself with a full legal name. You filed a case regardless, with your summary [...] [No] response [from judge.me] after I mentioned you run a money laundering business on the silk road. Plus, YOU filed the case, you used your summary [...]
TF neither filed an arbitration case nor had any intention of paying an arbitration fee and proceeding with arbitration.
I made this obvious by filing the case and offering to pay half the fee, only later finding out judge.me won't proceed with the case because of TF's slander.
[...] it seems like you could have worked with him longer to resolve your complaints.
I could accept a less than professional website if I hounded him again and again to fix all the bugs in his final version which would likely take months to do, but that's not what I paid for. I solicited and paid for a professional quality, functioning web site. TF failed to deliver a functional site and he can not make a professional quality site regardless of the time given. He never has and never will IMHO.
Because TF offers to create commercial websites and doesn't have the skills/experience to do so, he is a scammer.
