It's funny that you would say that. Gerald did make it extremely clear that one of the main reasons ActiveMining doesn't give out any detailed information is due to them originally telling you about the eASIC deal before it was confirmed and you harassing eASIC to the point where the deal almost fell through.

While I don't think this is a legitimate reason for ActM to hold back information to it's shareholders, from the sounds of it you have done more to harm this company than any actual troll out there.


As I've stated before, a meeting with Ken is likely for this coming up Weekend/Monday.

so bargraphics, are you offended that Ken doesn't even want to talk to you? 

No it really was a brief look in and then I was told I would have to wait for Ken to go back in which is understandable. Gerald made it clear that Ken is the boss and decision maker. I have to go back to Springfield on the 20th anyways to get back on plane back home. I expect that will be the day I do the followup meeting.

@Bar:  Take any pics of the benches or the Avalons?

Hey guys,

Writing this on my iphone so I'll make it brief.

I met with Micah and Gerald over here and got a brief tour of the warehouse where I saw the workbenches and their Avalons hashing.

My initial impression was they were very open and enjoyed having customers/shareholders come by. The place was relatively easy to find.

i had breakfast with Gerald and most of my questions were cut short due to only Ken having the authority to answer them.

Gerald let me know that they are still getting orders. Ken is in San Jose meeting with eASIC and the board engineers. Gerald said he is excited for the news that should come back with Ken hopefully sometime this week.

I asked them about their financial situation and of course it was very vague but he mentioned that even if every customer wanted a refund ( and they are giving refunds to anyone that requests them ) they would still be in good shape to continue with the project.

Ken should be back by the weekend and I have a meeting planned with him then.

So take this as you will. They have stressed to me that they are open to others to visit just give them a call/pm/email and set it up if you'd like to come by.

My opinion of the situation is that they seem to be making every effort to make this project happen,
there were delays that could have avoided but it also appears eASIC is working with them to resolve these issues asap.

Tale all of this as you will but I expect the meeting with Ken directly will be more more informative.

I took you up on your offer, "Admin Of TheFreeBitCoinsLst.com Come Check Us out," and got a Big Surprise.
Your site's dead

And from someone who talks Regularly With ken and trying to help him in any way possible, All i can say due to NDA agreements with Ken is that Some Very Big Surprises are coming Soon for all the FUDsters and Nay-sayers about VMC and ActM  

Jo, thanks for saying it's not personal.  I can deal with the personal stuff although it genuinely gets to me when people call into doubt my honesty.  If you were to look back at my posts the pattern you would notice is that my contributions are fairly level  headed and indeed pro-ActM until a fudster or troll turn up and I then go for the jugular.  This is because I can not abide injustice and will always stick up for people where I see wrong doing.  Even with my efforts I still think there is an enormous imbalance of people who hate on Ken and if I thought this could potentially lead to him throwing in the towel at some point then why would I not attempt to address this as best I could when I had so much to lose if the project failed?
I find it amazing that there are people who believe that a cheerleader is more dangerous than a fudster and troll as I understand a cheerleader to be someone who cheerleads because they believe in a company.  If a cheerleader is someone who may not believe in a company but promotes them then I am no cheerleader.
Now people can take what I say with a pinch of salt all they like, that's fine, but when I share information from the kindness of my own heart by quoting the CEO's PM's, how long until that CEO exposes my lies if I am publicly tampering with his words?
Edit: Jo to give you a better understanding of my posts and my mindset, I'll say this.  I'm an amateur endurance athlete believe it or not, and if I ever accepted that failure was a possibility in any challenge, then I wouldn't get out of bed in the morning.  Perhaps I recognise that tenacity in Ken.

When does your visit end? So i can start asking questions.

Hah I'm kidding, this is actually in a cabinet at the hotel I'm staying at. Something about "e-cycling" which I couldn't help but snap a picture of.

Edit: And the clock actually works!
