If Mouth-Full-Of Earth is a Josh sockpuppet, he is literally the greatest long conman in history, IMO.

Please, I've met much better. He just has an unbelievably stupid audience.

Well, if you say so. I would say the effort he went through to set up the MFOE account is pretty impressive if it really was a sock puppet.

I'm not following you, MrTeal. The effort consisted of two mundane posts. An effort would consist of a dozen, albeit a lame effort.

Not really. MFOE has also bought chips through my group buy and planned to have boards made, so unless Josh has gone to all the trouble of setting up remailing addresses and purchasing his own chips from other people at what I can only assume is a much greater cost than he'd pay at BFL he's probably not a sockpuppet. His two posts haven't done any promoting of BFL at all, so that seems like a lot of work for no real benefit.

Don't let me stop you from your investigations though.

If you keep this shit up adding no constructive discourse to this forum, I'll either make it my personal mission in life to get you banned from this forum or I'll leave this forum in protest for them allowing trolling.  I have no problem with you but your seriously acting like a fucking OCD patient in a psyche ward.

Jesus FUCKING CHRIST.

@Therymos Can we please give this guy a warning or a ban or something?

I really think this is your (our) best course of action.

No, that confirms that you're an idiot.  It also confirms there is an "edit shout" button in the shoutbox.

But I wouldn't expect you to understand simple concepts like an "edit" button or anything, since advanced concepts like general understanding of the world around you are so far beyond you as to be laughable.  By all means, continue to show what a moron you are.

BFL_Josh : I think I hit hte wrong key when I was replying and it sent as him... not sure how that's possible

Really? An edit shout button? The button you supposedly didn't know existed until after you had to explain your sock puppetry?
First a 2 month delay in Monarch 3 days after you announce it, then you get caught with a sock puppet.

What is that?

Josh Zerlan trying to pretend that he edited the clipboard after a control+c?

Priceless.

I honestly don't have a clue as to how he is trying to pawn this off as an error, given...

[10:37 PM]   Mouth-Full-O-Earth : Josh, I have the negative bal problem
[10:37 PM]   grnbrg : Order #?
[10:37 PM]   grnbrg : Or PM it to Josh.
[10:37 PM]   Mouth-Full-O-Earth : getting it...
[10:38 PM]   Mouth-Full-O-Earth : Ok, I've passed that along for the devs to look at it
[10:38 PM]   Mouth-Full-O-Earth : Also there is a discrepancy in the math between the order status and the invoice which I have figured out the cause of
[10:38 PM]   Mouth-Full-O-Earth : it is the handling of the 25% discount
[10:39 PM]   Mouth-Full-O-Earth : and the order status does not include the 10% transfer fee
[10:39 PM]   Mouth-Full-O-Earth : order number 100071932
[10:39 PM]   Mouth-Full-O-Earth : oh- sorry didn't mean to send twice
[10:40 PM]   tom999 : no more order for me and cant combine and 10% fee
[10:40 PM]   BFL_Josh : .
[10:40 PM]   BFL_Josh : I've passed that along for the devs to look at it
[10:40 PM]   Mouth-Full-O-Earth : thanks
[10:41 PM]   polrpaul : [11:38 PM] Mouth-Full-O-Earth : Ok, I've passed that along for the devs to look at it
[10:41 PM]   polrpaul : [11:40 PM] BFL_Josh : I've passed that along for the devs to look at it
[10:41 PM]   grnbrg : A note from Josh prolly carries more weight. 
[10:41 PM]   polrpaul : I just thought it was peculiarly same language
[10:42 PM]   BFL_Josh : I think I hit hte wrong key when I was replying and it sent as him... not sure how that's possible, but it also copied his order number into my text box.

MFOE posted first with: [10:38 PM]   Mouth-Full-O-Earth : Ok, I've passed that along for the devs to look at it

Then Josh posed with: [10:40 PM]   BFL_Josh : I've passed that along for the devs to look at it

Should it have been the other way around to have Josh's reasoning make sense?

[Phinnaeus Gage]

[10:37 PM]   grnbrg : Order #?
[10:37 PM]   grnbrg : Or PM it to Josh.

I still find it odd that grnbrg asked for an order # then seemed to correct himself and stated to ask Josh (paraphrased).

Actually, I offered up an olive branch before I even known one needed offering. Allow me to try again. Jacob, you're an alright guy, and so am I. You and I can easily have a civil discussion. Yes, I've been going over the top lately pertaining to BFL. I am a man of reason, so if you speak civilly to me, I'm more apt to come to your side of a thinking. Give it a shot, bud.

This is ridiculous. How do companies like this even exist? And why is BFL's spokesperson such an idiot? A monkey banging on the keyboard would be more helpful and probably twice as polite.
