[Tomatocage]

I don't get it, what did he scam? Mcxnow.com still seems to be online.

[GoldSeal]

Avoid realsolid (ken armitt) like the plague....

[naturalog]

Post your message here on how he has scammed you.  I was scammed by him as he decided to shutdown his site "Temporarily" Which could mean years based on his history.  His announcement took the price of his shares from .21+ to .05 within an hour.   Keep in mind that just a few weeks ago he sold his shares for .4 to everyone.  Promising that his site will never go down and it can be run by his dumb wife that has half a brain if there really is one.   

I got scammed as well see here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=595500.msg6540430#msg6540430

No surprise that he is a scammer, rude man he is! Someone needs to reach out to him and teach him a lesson

[Vod]

People still trust realsolid?  I remember when he raised some bitcoin donations to "finish development" of his solidcoin, then promptly disappeared for a year or so without doing any work.

Rude and scammer are entirely different things.   You are just helping the real rip off merchants by trying to mislabel somebody you dont like, its not the same thing.
All the people moaning about shares are obviously not aware of investor risk, you can be upset or pissed off but it just helps the real fraudsters out by slinging mud at everyone

I have to agree. Most of the posts I read from him were plain rude, or he had terrible etiquette.

Time to start a Internet manhunt.

By the way, wasn't MCxNow closed down one time in November of 2011?

Is possibbility that the people that are mods for him are part of the scam scenario, making him look like a honest business owner,  Last year I thought he was going to become big but he could be probably be Mark Kapeles Equal.

Anyone who was recently scammed by RealSolid needs to be smarter and do their homework before investing.

Ever since day one when he released soiled coin #1 he was scummy and scammy.

Look the site owner says if you buy shares now I will do A when auction comes. then he does B when auction comes. then once new shares are sold closes site. then partially reopens (trade shares only) and tells users site will not be back for months.  then opens site in 2 weeks.

Yes investing in shares is a risk. but flat out lies that manipulates share value is more than rude.

Fees were supposed to be paid every 6 hours last complete payout before shutdown was not paid. partial (~2hr) time after unpaid shares was not paid either.

Not paying out out shares s also more than rude.

I agree with most of what you said. I hate the way he flip-flops as well. The issue I have, though, is that when it comes down to it, the prices have always bounced back. He even said, when it was supposed to shut down for 2 months, that those who held on to their shares would be getting back more or less what they paid. What happened? Sure enough, they bounced back and anyone who had waited would have gotten back the full amount.

I'm more annoyed with v2.5 than anything. He said almost 2 months ago now that it was "completed" and that he was "just waiting until he gets a boner" and he'd release it. As of today's update, he says there is still a lot of work to go in to it and he's been working on other projects as well (often skipping v2.5 as he does it). It's this that is annoying.

But none of this is a scam. He never stole anyone's money. If people buy and sell fee shares, that's their own doing. He did not log into people's accounts to force buys/sales; people did that on their own. He hasn't stolen deposits.

People can't get mad because they invested into a site without doing due diligence first. RS has been doing this for many months. People who invested just because they said "OMG HES GIVING OUT MUNNEHS 0.001% OF TEH EXCHANGE MUST PASS MUNEH FASTUR!" are morons. Never invest in anything until you know who you are dealing with and what you're dealing with. Anything else is going to result in a loss.

tl;dr: quit being stupid and blaming others because you make bad decisions.

Note steal is not a requirement of the above. 

next you are going to tel me that just keeping payouts and not paying them out to owners is not stealing either you have the same amount of coin as you did before.

He did keep a couple hours' worth of the payouts, sure. That's all though. In fact, since then he's given out TONS of BTC (at least 20-30 that I'm personally aware of), which is far more than the fees he "stole."

he's not a scammer he robin' hood now?

It's ok to steal if you had it out to buddies?
