ANTMINER S2 Discussion and Support Thread

[hurricandave]

I guess I have to scroll through 115 pages to find out how to change password on S2.

no problem, just call bitmain im sure he will be more than happy to help you..oh wait scratch that...if he knew how to help you it wouldnt have come all fuc!%$ed up in the first place...good job bitmain...keep up the good work, im sure you will  sell a lot more of these pieces of crap to people and expect them to figure out out re-engineer your piece of shit.

I say dont spend another dime on his useless crap until he compensates everyone for their losses, and not by giving them a measly $400 S2 store credit so you can buy another door stopper.

I say BOYCOTT!!!!!!!!!! the "man"  that might get his attention, and keep his monkey's in line, and quality test his product before selling it to you after he mined with it for a month before wrapping it up and stomping on the box before sending it to you.

why do you think each batch drops $500 a week or so, beacause when he is done mining with them and the difficulty rises he sells them a little cheaper tricking you into thinking you are getting a good deal when you will NEVER ROI on those used pieces of shit, if they come to you in one piece and actually turn on.

hey bitmain, why not send each of your S2 customers 6 S1's as compensation for this?  those seem to work well.

but i wouldnt hold my breath as he is a greedy bastard, and is only looking out to screw you at this point....go ahead and RMA the unit so you can be out 2 weeks worth of mining while his engineers diagnose what is wrong with your unit and maybe give you what he thinks may be a "fair" compensation for it.....ha! what a joke.

you had a good reputation and business...i dont think so anymore...JUST SAY NO!  he will get the message when no money comes into his wallet.

what a jerk.

Who are you trolling for  BFL?

[buckrogers]

sorry not a troll, just an extermely unsatisfied customer..,.and the shady replies i recived from bitmain made me sick to my stomach and almost threw up.  I spent almost $4000 on their batch 1 junk, and I have never dealt with a company like this who treats their customers like shit while selling them defective priducts.

So agian, not a troll, just spreading the word about the shit they are pawning...why are you a fan? did your miner come to you undamaged and working perfectly, cause i know mine didnt, it came in pieces all messed up, and they expected me to figure out how to fix and re-engineer their broken piece of shit....and they dont really care about their custimers or they would have resolved my issue a week ago, instead i have a beatifull pile of crap sitting on my shelf..

and BFL? fu%$k them too they never delivered any products to me...i am just pissed as hell at the stupidity of bitmain.

go call someone else a troll idiot.

I think not.
$4000 is not a small sum of money.

Like he told someone else to do-  "If your not having fun mining Bitcoin, go ride a bike! It's FREE."

Oh, I love mining I have a great time and lots of fun doing it when I am not gettig a broken piece of shit from someone I paid $4000 to.

Are you having fun trying to be a dick? cause that what it sounds like to me....do you even own an S2? Did it come in one piece for you?

I am actually a very pleasant person but when i send someone $4000 in good faith that I will be reciving a product that they are claiming to work, and it comes to me as a pile of crap, im not gonna stand there and say "ok, im a nice guy i guess ill just eat it" no...im  gonna blast you and your company for false advertising and pre-mining, and horrible support if thats the way you are going to treat me as a paying customer....customer being the key work here...I didnt get anything for free...did you? do you work for bitmain?...are you actually bitmain under one of his other fake accounts on here?

[solitude]

No need to jew us man, bitcoin is the working mans currency

Sorry not that good price.
Small delay with no orders and another $500 would go down.

[tzortz]

I am actually tempted to order few of these miners now...

[freebit13]

I had a plug trip last night and was faced with the S2 "blue screen of death" after restarting. I just ejected the SD card and pushed it back in and it booted up no problem after that, no need for re-imaging 

[freebit13]

I cant resist, I will buy 2 , NOW!

Please let us know if they improve the packaging at all.

[tzortz]

Sure, I cant wait to receive the new batch.

I will let you know as soon as I get it.

respect my comment.well thank you, I thought it made perfect sense in its context.

But if you are refering to the idiot who quoted it and saying back to me that i should follow my own advice...i think naught.

If you look at the original context it made sense, for him to rehash a comment made on something totaly unrelated is irrelivant and has nothing to do with this issue.

I do enjoy mining and have been doing it for a long time now probably more than most of the idiots making these stupid remarks, so I have dealt with many companies in my day, and none of them has given me as much grief as bitmain has with this disaster of a unit he is selling to people.

Thats all. nothing more. I will continue to mine....HAPPILY    my farm will just be 1 piece of shit smaller.

[buckrogers]

better get your dumpster ready!

I am curious what is tempting you? the horror stories?, the massive amounts of photos members have posted? or the pre-mining that he is doing before you get your broken used up S2? or maybe its the monkeys jumping up and down on your box before they toss it on the plane's conveyor belt? Or maybe you are a risk taker? I mean you must be heavily invested in the stock market ...right?

Just trying to figure out why people would continue to buy this product?....is it the lower price point? because if thats it, then I doubt you will reach an ROI, unless it drops another grand and BTC goes up another 100 points.

But temptation is a killer, so I say go for it and give bitmain your money.  Im sure he will be happy to take it, since he already made that back and more when pre-mining with your 'CHEAPER" unit.

please let us know how it works out for you.

I might be "tempted" to buy a few more
