Why are you such a BFL asshamster? Seriously man - I don't get it. I assume they don't pay you - so why do you do this for free?

What's the opposite reason of why you post the same garbage over and over?

I'm just going to keep repeating "it's an Altera HardCopy" because I haven't the slightest clue what I'm talking about.

Isn't there an age requirement for these forums?  The reason I ask is because it looks like we've got a couple of 4 year-olds having temper tantrums.

Threads like this create a bad public image for the Bitcoin community.

What's the big deal? If you're not happy with BFL, either get a refund or don't buy their product. Why let it ruin your day or Thanksgiving weekend?

I ordered a few BFL Single SCs back in July and am not thrilled that I didn't get my ASICs in October, as expected when I placed the order, but its not the end of the world.

Peace.

True, it will not be the end of the world if you do not get asic or get money back too. The world has not ended when the pirate ran away with money. But that's not the point.

scammers are worse... Threads like these allow people to exercise caution. Communist era already over, in most countries we have freedom of speech.

We do still (mostly) have freedom of speech, at least away from BFL controlled forums.

Plus,its like watching a trainwreck,you just can't look away  Cheesy

I was just searching for shipment updates on BFLs forum, reading this thread here:
https://forums.butterflylabs.com/pre-sales-questions/406-any-chance-chips-wont-work.html

Taking a snapshot, because I sort of assumed that this one would be deleted rather quickly. And I was right. It's gone now.

Which makes me think: Are we in f*cking China?!?! Censorship at it's best ...

Hey SLok & Inaba: eryngi is of course another one of Frizz23 fake accounts, right?



Well Frizz23, it probably is, you followed Eryngi pretty closely. Have you got the news that your probable alter ego Eryngi asked for a refund for a non-existing order for 5 Singles? Like naterhit's fake order refund request? Both guessed order numbers that did not exist. Or are you really borderline multi-personality disordered, besides being a psychopathic liar? https://forums.butterflylabs.com/pre-sales-questions/441-refund-not-getting-processed.html

you guys do realize that "free speech" only protects you from the government limiting your speech, right? think about that the next time you yell "THIS IS A FREE COUNTRY"

It is pitch black. You are likely to be eaten by a grue.

Dude your fries don't exist. All you have is an expensive fantasy that you will one day get to eat some delicious, golden brown fried potato that you paid for months ago. The guys at McDonalds keep telling you "Just wait a little longer, the fries are nearly ready" but you can't smell fries cooking. The only smell is bullshit. The manager of the McDonalds is a convicted fraudster, and some people are beginning to suspect that they don't even have a fryer back there at all.

You're standing at the front, salivating. You want those fries. You need those fucking fries. You're grasping a packet of ketchup, desperate for that first salty, greasy bite.

Suddenly a voice from the crowd says "Hey...maybe the fries aren't coming."

You have too much invested. Too much money, too much emotions. If those fries don't come, all your dreams die...

"SHUT UP!" you bark. "Don't you DARE question the fries. They're coming alright, and they'll be even more delicious than they promised, and I for one can't wait to see the look on your face as I shove those potato morsels down my greedy gullet!"

Maybe the fries will arrive. Maybe they won't. But one this is for sure, the whole thing is sketchy as fuck.

You can't really fault people for questioning it. Questioning it repeatedly even. This is Bitcoin, nothing can be taken for granted, especially not such a sketchy situation.


Most beautyful thing I ever read on here.

LOL, the forum admin at BFL forums just installed an ignore feature over there.

[Joking speculation]
I guess they will encourage people to ignore the others asking pertinent questions.

I suppose that is one way to retain customers....ask them to wear the blinders like horses (haha)

https://forums.butterflylabs.com/bfl-forum-miscellaneous/446-how-ignore-users-bfl-forums.html

Nice--but totally out of context. The feature was already there, the button just wasn't active.  And it was a feature that was requested by customers so this was actually a sign of good, responsive customer service.  BFL originally resisted adding it because they hoped the tone of the discussions wouldn't require it,  Sadly, immaturity and hostility prevailed over reasoned, intelligent discussion and it became necessary.

I actually read that forum. There is a little immaturity here and there. Though, most of the rest of the content on that forum is pretty much normal stuff.

I hope customers whom spend thousands of dollars (or BTC equivalent) are not now considered practicing immaturity...

(I hope that is not the implication anyway)

You have to expect there will be irate people. They paid money, they didn't get their product, everything develops from there. It is human.

I don't see the immaturity at the level that an ignore feature is needed. Then again, everyone thinks differently.

It's the trolls that aren't customers that seem to be causing a lot of it and they are decent about moderating so that the spammiest of posters get deleted/blocked as much as possible.

You should maybe re-read that thread.
Guy gave invalid order number, gave invalid email address, said "sorry typo in order number", does not give right order number or email, just says "satisfied with production update" that was posted 8 hours before he asked for a refund, and doesn't want to cancel anymore, and purrs like a kitten since. Or was it asshamster.

Yeah. They only let the cozy asshamsters through (Lab_Rat, BitBoyben, SLok, etc.) Wink

Why must you be a customer to have concerns? Could someone that was just considering their options post?

These were not intended to be rhetorical, I don't go to BFL forum territory save to investigate a posted link.

You could always spread knowledge .... as josh/inaba/the next guy doesnt know as much as you do...just a thought...
