I know. However he didn't let me review it before the publishing. Wrong coverage (in good faith) is better than no coverage.

A big thanks to Joel for his article (that i've yet to read, but i think it will be great).
(I was wrong about Ars, Joel was writing for Ars until a few years ago and i believed that the article was gonna be published to Ars. However, with almost 40k facebook followers, it's a really good starting point).

@cedivad The article gets it's facts wrong. There was never any mention of the Dec. 31st date in the terms of sale or otherwise for early customers that was only put in the terms of sale after they had already been taking orders for 5 days on around Aug. 15th.

hashfast is the worst SCAM i never seen ! dont buy anything from them !
From what I am reading about HF, I would say they are a close tie with BFL. It really is like dejavu for me to read about this crap. The only difference for me is, I did not order from HF. Those of you that did, you have my sympathies. I do know what it feels like to have a large sum of money in jeopardy.
Best of Luck.

This is the rationale way to fight with someone that can put down 10k-100k$ a day in advertising.

Thanks cedivad for making sure the community knows what kind of scumbags HashFast managers are. We have to make sure nobody gets scammed ordering from them ever again. Don't send your money to HF, it will be stolen away!

Yeah there is no "winning" option(s) here...
December 31, 2013, 10:25:13 PM
There needs to be a freestanding domain with this information. Doesn't have to be anything complicated. Just something that advertisements on the keyword hashfast can be pointed at.
How about
HashFastScam.org
or
HashFastLawsuit.org
I'll *(contact the owner) to donate either to someone willing to populate them.

[And now I have to go figure out how to split all this OT stuff out of this thread. ::sigh::]
Is discussing shipping timelines and company communications of custom hardware vendors really OT?
December 31, 2013, 10:07:45 PM
Lol...well we can't really talk about your custom hardware now can we, since you took all our BTC, lied to us, and gave us nothing.

To avoid wasting people's time avoid bumping threads with pointless +1s, meme images, or "inb4" messages. Silence is golden. If you don't have something substantive to say, please say nothing at all. If you're not sure what the topic of a thread is either don't post in it or only post to ask for clarification.

This thread is about letting people know you haven't provided your custom hardware. Stop bumping it with useless posts and spend more time shipping.

If you want to improve things, as a mod you can easily have a positive impact. Abolish all discussion of hardware that hasn't shipped in volume to mining speculation.
I agree that the Custom Hardware sub should be about Custom Hardware, in accordance with Gmaxwell's own rules.
That means Scam Accusations should be moved to the Scam Accusation sub, not left here to lower the signal/noise ratio.
The baseless, now-rubbished "Is HashFast Self-Mining?" thread is a sterling example of why following Gmaxwell's rules is a good idea.
Of course, being both a disgruntled customer and a mod presents an increasingly apparent conflict of interest for him.
I was worried that you would have had the courage to come here and argue what i wrote, because i was ready to defend it. However your post is uselessly full of nothing but personal attacks to our moderator and of new empty lines.
I'm disappointed.
This thread is not a scam accusation, so shall it not belong to the scam accusation forum. I understand that you will have an hard time understanding this. But have a nice new year anyway.

How would a company ever sell their products if they couldn't get investomers??

I would say that this doesn't make bitcoin less likely to succeed, but as stated in the previous post, make it more likely that large companies will take it over. Of course this chord against the ethos of bitcoin, maybe this is what you mean by destroy.
