Feel like defending BFL now?

That makes perfect sense.

0. You need money to build ASICs. Where to get it?
1. Collect money from miner
2. Build ASICs on miners' money 
3. Run ASICs and feed miners with promises to deliver
4. Deliver ASICs to miners when you took all the cream

No laws were violated. I would do the same. Seriously, I applaud you guys and admire your skills. And really hope that you get rich from this and teach all the rest a lesson.

OK this totally stinks (btw best globe chart EVER)

[ibminer]

Yes I am indeed totally shocked that:

1. It does not run on Safari.
2. There is no F***** zoom.
3. someone would choose such SHITE colours for sea & land masses
4. There is no roll over hash values on the quills.
5. Josh would waste his time replying.

Runs fine on safari for me, using latest version... after enabling the developer menu and using it to enable webgl.

Definitely could offer more detail, and a better zoom functionality to get city-based results (assuming based on IP address of the node)

This topic is dumb.

You should be looking at the miners graph, not the nodes graph.

Or do you really think BFL would run a bunch of nodes for fun?

I admit I miss-read the graph and overreacted.  Apologies all around.

I'm newish to the community and didn't know this had already been discussed. 

However,  Josh, you're still a dick.

That's classic!!!  And you are SO right.

Not only is he a dick, but he's a liar and a cheat, and he'll be in prison in the next 18 months.  Should we wager?

[smoothie]

It's not like there's a top bitcoin pool in Kansas City or anything... oh wait...
Dhenson: consummate idiot.
Feel like defending your intelligence now?

Is that your official (and as always eloquent) denial that BFL is not hashing on customer equipment?

Remember those magical wafers that just vaporized? was it 5 wafers?

[smoothie]

Gosh.... the newbies filter should be alot more strict .

This is what we get letting them noobs, going wild .... posting garbage shit everywhere.

And those with higher post counts really have some quality content to their contributions, eh?

lol yes

 -1 & +1 ..nice save

[smoothie]

Shouldn't you be building ASIC's instead of getting worked up from a few internet trolls? 

They're waiting on a shipment of chips, guy. Or can't you read?

They said that the first few months lol.

11 months later...still waiting lol

dhenson   -1 (for misreading graph) + 1 (for calling josh a dick) = 0 

josh -1 for every missed order going back 12 months  = -62,000

[razorfishsl]

I love it because you can see all over the world where bitcoins are popping up, even in countries you would not expect.

Goodstuff.

No you cannot.....
Can you See Hong Kong?

In order to have that much hashing power, BFL would have to actually PRODUCE something.  Did you forget that one important detail?

A very good point. Well said!

Ah, but I'm only a dick to people who are dicks first, that's the key point you seem to be missing.  If you weren't a cock waffle to start with, you wouldn't get a dick response.

It's what most people like you don't seem to understand.  If you approach people with respect and courtesy, you get the same in return.  If you approach people with vitriol and raving irrationality, you are likely to get a less than favorable response.  You wonder why I treat you like poorly, yet your first post is accusatory and irrational.  Imagine that.

Wow.... Just wow. This is how you conduct your business? Very professional. Boy, am I glad I didn't fall for your scam.  
You would fit right in at Amy's Bakery Company, might apply there after your next visit to jail.

Tbh I haven't even ordered anything. I was thinking about it around a year ago when I heard the buzz about asic but looking back I'm glad I didn't!

And YES, YOUR STILL A DICK HEAD!

Its just all endless lies and bullshit and I cant belive people are still just sitting back and waiting for their stuff instead of invading Bullshit Labs offices!

Oh well!

His first post was him mistakenly reading a chart and attempting to notify other users of something he thought he had found about a company that a large number of people do not trust right now (and possibly he doesn't trust either, which is why he jumped the gun on judging). An appropriate response from someone who works at such a high position with BFL should have been:

"There is a bitcoin pool located in Kansas City, near our headquarters. This chart also depicts node count, not hash rate. BFL does not conduct any public mining with any of its pre-ordered miners. This has always been the case, and remains so. Please correct your original post. Thank you."

I will re-quote you, so you understand where you went wrong here... at least, in my opinion.
