GPUMAX | The Bitcoin Mining Marketplace

[jamesg]

With NEW INVITES going out, can anyone comment on the level of Admin/OP communication/interaction/support in the #GPUMAX IRC channel ?

I don't think that Zach/zux0r had an active account here on the forum and obviously Trendon/pirateat40 hasn't posted about the subject in quite some time.

I tried to keep up to date myself in the past, but it seems now, or at least as of late, I am no longer welcome in any pirateat40-related IRC channels.

Cheers,

Hi Bitlane,

zux0r is in the #gpumax channel everyday and handles all of the support requests along with coding of the site. Purchases were running yesterday and the system is healthy.

Thanks giga.

Alex, it has always been represented as a 'Partner Project' with pirate being 1 of the managing/founding members.
As I never really used IRC for support or info, I never became too familiar with zux0r (Zach) and pirate/Trendon maintained the 'forum-public-face' role around here.

I guess, like everyone else, I am simply probing around to see where in the world Carmen Sandiego Pirate/Trendon is and if he still maintains a presence in the channel, during his 'step-back' from the public spotlight with all of the BTCST '(lack-of)happenings' as of late.

This situation still confuses me, yet continues to amaze me, by making less and less sense on a daily basis, especially since NEW INVITES keep arriving for new GPUMAX signups.
Oh well...back to my magic 8-ball for the time being

GPUMAX is still in beta, and previously they would issue new invites as improvements were made to the site.  And there would be an admin on the board to help with questions, and make announcements, etc.

Now it just seems like they are trying to get as many people to sign up as possible all at once...

And I haven't seen any improvements to the site in quite a while.  And there's plenty of places where they could still be improving.

Well, in their defense ( I can't believe I am posting this) alot of the improvements happen behind the GUI, where we can't see. They are always trying to improve load balancing, share fetching etc.... and they seem to keep moving forward. It's just to bad that the Public Relations situation is killing the Technology side of things.

As mentioned above, maybe they just finally consider their product stable enough to increase invites now. This was meant to be a business in the long run to begin with. While there are some doubts to the long term potential or the possible illegal/immoral/otherwise bad uses, it's out there to be used all the same. More people means bigger business. In theory, new invites means lower PPS prices and more people buying shares at the lower price.

Esp since Pirate always stated gpumax/btcs&t payments all came from the same wallet, I'm amazing GPUmax still exists and people still using it, given the present state of default on btcs&t.

Don't worry about them. They are all COOL because they are only risking a few Bitcoins 
....a few Bitcoins times how many users ?....another good haul by Trendon Shavers in the end.

I don't know what you've eaten today, but it's the second post where I see you "defend" pirate and trying to put yourself in his perspective.

You evolved a lot since your crisis for the no-withdraw after 3 hours. 

Unfortunately it depends on the time of day that I take my medication
Seriously though, GPUMAX.....what could have been.....fuck me.

I just can't help but think: "Hitler....finds a cure for Cancer"

Why should we stop earning gpumax profits because you invested in a obvious ponzi scheme? I'm definitely not taking advice from someone who can't figure out how mining is profitable and instead, chooses to invest in a ponzi scheme.

He didn't steal anything. All those investing IDIOTS gave it to him, willingly. There's no proof that he is a scammer, or that he was lying, or that he was pretending to be different people, or that he has a dead man's switch, or that 'it shouldn't take longer than a week', or that he will begin payouts on monday, or that Trendon Shavers is simply a DBA name, or the amount of bitcoins he currently has, or that he was selling BTC locally and doing loans and market arb, or that his wife is a fake blonde, or that he has a legitimate business, or that he has legitimate partners that require 100% disclosure to his lenders upon payback of funds, or that he actually WILL pay back 100% of owed funds down to the hour with running interest, or that he has a BOT that checks his PMs for him on this forum so it may look like he is online but he really isn't, or that Don Shrents is a real person, or that he is actually a real pirate, or that he has 30,000 of his own personal bitcoins, or that GPUMAX was NOT used to launder money, or that he was never pointing GPUMAX hashing power to his own private pool in order to generate freshly minted coins for personal use/laundering, or that he never skimmed shares off the top of every GPUMAX miner even when they were only using GPUMAX for monitor and control their miners for 'free', or that he doesn't have 7 different sockpuppet accounts on this forum, or that 99% of all his OTC feedback prior to BTCST big money borrowing was left for sub-$100 Paypal/BTC transaction where he was actually nice.......OR....or...OR...or...

They're not counting on pirate, they're counting on gpumax's current leadership. Let's all hope pirate doesn't have any control of funds still, though I expect we would already know if he did

Exactly. You need to remember to count on the honest people and everything will be fine. I promise.

Ponzi, Sky is falling, tin-foil hats....FUCK ME.
Get a life.

It seems all the detractors simply forget that Pirate is the 8th most rated seller at Bitcoin-OTC lol

Morons...

You were a tool and made an idiotic "investment". GPUMax is still paying out and there's clearly a market in buying and selling shares (I'm still buying at 105%-110% and doing a bunch of contracts adding up to a few million shares right now).

I'm not saying GPUMax is fine and dandy, particularly if pirate still has any influence or control over any of the money. I am saying that it's a service that's still running properly (save the lapse previously that was corrected, not without it's own drama though) WITH a public business plan that makes sense.

Even if pirate still had a hand in things, he would have incentive to keep it running because it does still make more money long term than cashing out (granted at this point no one has any reason to trust him and that's probably a good position to take), though it would certainly be wise to keep his mouth shut about it. Although the short term gain might be worth it for someone who just wanted to get out of town with some extra cash, or buy a good lawyer. (Just to be perfectly clear, I wouldn't personally want to put money in anything that pirate still has direct control of the money).

It'd probably be easier for Zach to drop the GPUMax name at this point and reopen as a clone, there has definitely been a lot of loss of community favor.

Have tainted coins
use them to pay GPUMax miners
