[ANN][ICO] Authorship - Making the Internet More Free and Accessible For Authors

[802529er]

Peter, can you not disregard my messages?

thank you

I am sorry, I cannot answer questions like "will I be paid/when will I be paid/why I am not being paid".

We have almost finished the tokens distributions to all participants that had no more than 3 registrations from the same IP.

Regards

Peter you need to provide a way for users to know if they are awaiting tokens or have been disqualified, I have messaged you multiple times with no avail

Please inform me as to my status

Hello Authorship admins,
I submitted my withdrawal request about 5 minutes after the ICO end and still didn't receive anything,
here's my referral URL, e-mail address and ETH address http://bounty.authorship.com/ref/b8920243/, nils.vanhee@gmail.com, 0x2eA033292310Ec75aBA29d8789BaB239bF09C87c

I manage to get about 9 people to register for a total of 675 tokens I believe

Thanks!

Trying to keep the criticism constructive.

So, dear Authorship, for your next ICO (you will need it after this disaster) a few hints, if you want to run a bounty program:

• use a professional referral/affiliate software or 3rd party provider. People have been weeding out fake sign-ups for over a decade. They know how to do it. You obviously did not.
• Make up your mind. Do not keep changing the rules. Pisses people off, and rightfully so.
• If you want to discriminate against whole countries, VPN users, the TOR community, etc. -  say so, upfront. Be aware that you would kick Kim Dotcom, Julian Assange, Ed Snowden and probably every digital nomad living in Bali (or Paraguay, like me) as well. Dumb.
• If you want to work for the world, learn how the world works... E.g. there are whole countries where 90% of users are behind forced proxies.
• As I wrote in my earlier endorsement for this ICO: the biggest challenge will be to make blockchain usable and painless for people outside the blockchain nerd community. We do not need another nerd circle jerk. You allegedly wanted readers and authors from the real world. But now you scold, blame and insult every 'normal' person who just thought 10 bucks for an email address would be interesting. How many potential users and publishers were among them?

I still think that the basic idea behind Authorship.com is great.
Re-gaining trust and countering all the bad press all over the web will be hard.
If there was/is an honest project behind this ICO, I wish you luck to fix the mess...

Hello, Peter!

I am head of the community assembled from several universities. This is both students and teachers (about 15 thousand people, the potential audience for reading and authorship). I sent out to the participants in my group writing and thus brought together people who are interested in the book topics in our universities. Among our community gathered a number of people interested in having ATS tokens for personal use for use in your service.

Since I am not distributing a link "wherever possible", but only among 100% of interested people, it worries me - your message about what you are going to ban people, on whose referral links a lot of registrations but a small fraction of the hits links.

The system will identify me and the members of our community who registered, as cheaters and will ban our participation in the project?

And I'm worried if the guys will be banned, but decide to invest eth in project now on their accounts - since the ban - they will lose everything.

Sry for not good english, but  if u dont understand anything - lemme know. Ty for your reply!

Hi Peter!
I earn 9305 coins from promotions and hope that i will get my coins. Please be fair with the people, who give their time to give you traffic and promotion.
my ether id is: 0xAdCB24E52390924C0cA0de043c53de2149257f83

[pitar]

my token balance:  0

1 - I'm not cheating
2 - My address is not wrong (myetherwallet.com)
3 - I don't have vpn
4 - I don't have the same ip

Peter, can you not disregard my messages?

I am sorry, I cannot answer questions like "will I be paid/when will I be paid/why I am not being paid".

We have almost finished the tokens distributions to all participants that had no more than 3 registrations from the same IP.

We will have an update in an hour or two as we complete the distribution. It's safe to consider that everyone who didn't receive in the next 2 hours the tokens has been disqualified.

[KristianSH27]

Thank you for the advice. It is fully noted.

In the future we'll probably use private funding as we initially intended for this project. This is how we always worked before, with private funding. This was our first meeting with ICOs and the community here, so you can say it was a trial and error and we used to rely on a lot of advice we received here. Not trying to find excuses, just pointing that there are always 2 sides of a story. I realize our mistakes and once again I apologize for this.

Our project development continues as this was our reason of raising funds. I'm positive that this entire situation will be long forgotten once everyone sees us and running and with thousands of authors selling the books through our platform.

Thank you

I submitted the withdrawal form the day before yesterday. It was on the white list of your system, but I haven't received it so far. Please explain it to me!

..next honk posting mailaddress + reflink here.. you know that anyone can fill out the withdraw form with that data now and get your tokens???

[Psalmy2cute]

Dear... Peter how are things going with the exchange process... It would really put investors at ease... To know   are currently working on it... I invested 0.8eth

Pls do not ignore my post

[minbosen]

I have helped promoted to 5 people and I thought I could get 385 tokens, but I did not receive any tokens for now? Anything is wrong? This five people are my friends.

[VPNMasterService]

Wait...
Now we're back to "Not everyone gets their tokens"?
Because you wrote EVERYONE with less than 3 accounts per IP will get it.
And that was supposed to be final.

It would have meant I and all of my referrals qualify (most got in without referrals by themselves). But so far none of them received tokens (34 out of 65 who actually replied).

Ok....
