On top they voted to liquidate early. The risk and decision to liquidate were taken voluntarily, now deal with your loss.
Well this is the really amusing thing about it.
Shareholders did NOT vote to liquidate lol.
From the thread:
"
Question: At which Exchange should PGM continue?
Cryptostocks 3 (11.1%)
BTCT.co 4 (14.8%)
MPex 0 (0%)
Bitfunder 9 (33.3%)
Don't continue, Buyback my shares! 11 (40.7%)
Votes Total: 27"
59.93% of votes were NOT to close. He closed it with only 40.7% voting to do so.
That's because he did the inexcusable fuckup of asking two questions in one vote -
1. Should PGM continue?
2. If PGM continues, at which exchange should it do so?
That the MAJORITY of investors who wanted to continue didn't agree on an exchange isn't the same as counting a bunch of them as voting to close.
And that's aside from fact that votes was tallied based on number of people voting - not number of shares.
And having failed at basic commonsense and math he then immediately closed and sent back funds without waiting to see if anyone noticed the rather interesting voting process used. And shockingly none of the investors appear to even have noticed that there wasn't a majority in favour of closure.
