I completely concur with the earlier poster.  I mean, what the hell?  They are sitting on a gold mine and yet he's trying to run it off a shoestring budget by hiring English teachers part-time?  He had an opportunity to be a multimillionaire but now he's blown it.

I claimed my account with a strong password, Dwolla number, and pre-existing e-mail and yet it has still not been resolved.  When I wrote to them earlier today to point this out, I receive a message saying "Don't worry, everything is on track".  What does that even mean?  Is my account cleared or not?

The thing is, it's not even my hundred or so bucks that I'm so concerned about.  Rather, he's holding up the entire Bitcoin economy, since folks are holding off on buying new coin until they can be sure that they price will not take a huge dive once Mt. Gox re-opens.  I'm starting to think he's just written this whole thing off anyway -- he's basically given up on Mt. Gox.  And so now he's just trying to resolve it as cheaply as he can.

Do you know what happens when they said the equivalent of TBA. It became a flame fest for them to update every hour. Now if your going to bug them to give you update all they damn time it's very hard to make accurate estimates. Fuck seriously 24 hours? People waited like 13 years for Starcraft 2 through numbers of delays.

At least they update you that they are working on the claim.

Wow.  There's still some MtGox apologists out there.  I thought all you Branch Davidians died in the fire.  Good to see some of you got out.

Apparently only now, 20 minutes to launch, do they realize they have a ton of claims to process.

They have already picked another time - 24 hours from now - Apparently they can't learn from their own mistakes, even after all this.  What a let down.

See you guys in 96 hours.

I'm going to go with 108 - 11 AM EST monday morning.  At the earliest - price is right style - closest without going over.

Take a step back.

What do you hope to accomplish with stupid posts like this?

1) Either you wait a few days and continue to use MtGox

or

2) Your butt is hurt and you pull your funds out

Stop posting crap in this about how your so angry. This isn't "My Butt Hurts Forum" it's "Bitcoin Discussion".

Apparently being in this forum is like being in LA 1992 every day of the week.

Comeon guys, why so upset? I mean they seem like they got one guy already activated. I'm sure they'll be able to finish all the rest in the next 24 hours.

Guys there's a very real chance that this business will just shut down and declare bankruptcy and we'll never see them again.  It would actually probably be the smartest move.

The core business has very little value.. 2 employees, a website full of security holes that will cost more to fix than its worth, and pretty much 0 customer base with lots of potential legal liability.  If anything at this point the company has a negative value.

I chose 1.  It has been more then a few days.  So now it's 2.  How the hell do you announce a new go live date, and then with 21 minutes to go, say oops, we have lots of unfinished work so guess it will have to wait another day.  At this point it doesn't matter when it happens...  it's too late.

My guess is they timed this so that most customers cant call the banks and reverse their deposits which im sure there were tons of recently..

With 20 minutes to go they realized they had already gotten through several users, and could finish the last 59,997 up in the morning.

If they do shut the site down...there's nothing anyone can do about it. Welcome to the free, unregulated market.
