Why buy from AMT when you can use Aliexpress to get something that has ESCROW and way overpriced but will ship in 2 to 3 days?

Oh his thoughts on Dragon miners....and again his Chinese partners while he was working with them "note the dates".  Disparaging  against the Chinese in general AND against an actual vendor who has been shipping at least. I to paraphrase AMT_miners aka Joshua Zipkin....."True Vendors" you know ones who ship stuff in a timely manner.

[8/4/2014 3:41:54 PM] jzdtack624: im telling you, we used better componentns and a diffenret board layout than dragon
[8/4/2014 3:42:08 PM] jzdtack624: its a chinese miner fine, but its an inno miner
[8/4/2014 3:42:16 PM] jzdtack624: or a inno design miner for amt
[8/4/2014 3:42:23 PM] jzdtack624: what ever you wanna call it

Moral of the story? You can have the greatest miner in the universe....but it don't mean shit unless you ship it to your customers complete and working.

Oh and side thought. The press has said you Joshua Zipkin CEO of AMT are vindictive. The many other chats show that considering the Naughty and Nice list you kept.....Just consider that, your customers can be equally as vindictive when you take their money. Since you have looked for ways around paying them back and dodging the legal system, and likley hiding funds, we will make sure we cut you off at the knees from ever making a dime again until you have made every customer whole. You will not get ANY new business until that is done. Because YOUR OWN WORDS...."We will go broke to refund you" I recall that in a post I will need to dig up. Maybe someone else can find it. Or Josh already deleted it because it makes him responsible for something.

The point here is and getting back on topic, Joshua Zipkin's opinion's of what are supposed to be his peers and how he fucks them too essentially. Clearly he speaks disparagingly or just blabs their business with no regard of the consequences. But yea whatever the other companies there have done, he obviously holds them in very low regard. Let that sink in next time you have drinks with Josh at a bitcoin conference or do any kind of business with him. He also has mentioned how he has drinks with alot of you guys, get drunk whatever and talk about how bad this industry is. You guys can validate that. Since "Paul" aka Josh poked the bull, he gets the horns. Since he claimed he was no longer posting on here, this is how it goes down. Also looking at the time stamps you can see how much chatting was done. So there is alot. FYI If I suddenly stop posting here in all likelihood he had me killed since it's clearly a thing with him as he has obviously threatened people in the past. Just putting that out there.

Here is another snippet from hashfast:

[5/31/2014 1:05:56 AM] Joshua: hashfast is bankrupt.. by choice by the way
[5/31/2014 1:06:13 AM] Joshua: they couldnt take it anymore, simon and I got drunk in amsterdam
[5/31/2014 1:06:25 AM] Joshua: had their clients file a forced bankruptsy
[5/31/2014 1:07:03 AM] Joshua: i know, its fucked up


Here is another snippet. The CEOs of the "Major mining companies" will know these chats are real based on this along since they were there and I was not not something I could make up folks:

[6/5/2014 7:40:21 PM] Joshua: in general - the conversation ended with me ripping up a 1 dollar  bill into 16ths and placing it on the table demonstrating how psychological the world is not ready for a fractioned coin, they want to have 1 or a whole something especially something that doesnt exist anyway
[6/5/2014 7:41:32 PM] Joshua: its a good idea, and would fix the industry. I went there because I actually got all the major mining ceos in one room to discuss the idea and at least discussing mutual problems in order to form some sort alliance or at least trade association of sorts..

Moral of the story....don't poke the bear. Since Joshua Zipkin posing as his real estate agent Paul Augustine, decided to defraud his customers, and continues to do so with these sockpuppet accounts instead of manning up and speaking as himself and decided to piss me off. This is what happens. I had held back these chats because I have some sense of honor in things...BUT they were leaked  by someone else, and you claimed it was all made up. I was not having that. If you cant even own up to what you said, then screw it. I have no mercy left in me for someone who obviously knowingly tries decided to defraud us, and then tries to deny it.

FYI I had no intention of releasing these new chats, and was just gonna work with what was already out there, but since Joshua Zipkin does not have the stones to address this as himself, I figured maybe his peers can see what he thinks of them too. I have no issues against them, but he clearly does as he had to note that....but I thought the dollar bill thing should at least in their eyes show I am telling the truth assuming that event actually happened. These last chats are more for the "Major Mining" CEOs to validate. They will know none of this is BS just based on the above Wink

This is interesting.

Let me get this clear: We are not mining. It would be impossible to mine as we only have 5kw of power in our office.

You can ask Joshua where is our mining facility and we will be happy to this this address to check.



You made plenty of statements on price matching and refunds also.  Those turned out to be lies.

and then there's this:


Our facility is ready, will start Rent-A-Minion as soon as we solve the issue with the backplane.

Nobody with half a brain believes a word that comes out of your mouth at this point.  You are clearly lying in one of the above statements.  would you care to tell us which one?

Over the technobit AMT kerfufle a couple months back:
[6/12/2014 11:57:49 AM] Joshua: Yea martin's not pissed, he said he figure it out pretty quick. All is wel
[6/12/2014 11:58:17 AM] Joshua: its kinda hard to break up two guys who's wive's are friends. Its what they are trying to do it seems

Yup nothing to see here eh Marto.

Snakes.

Anyone doing biz with Marto needs their heads examined. 7 weeks now for the Minion GB boards is it?

Pfft... you can't trust either of these guys. Built from the same cloth.

ROI on a Blackarrow Minion X1/X3 is nonexistent. Infact upon the next diff increase, Minion will lose money just by switching it on. Unless you have free electricity

Best add that one to the long list of BA "truthful statements" so that it can be taken in context.

Customers who pre-order and pay now have 25% discount. Our promise is that we will ensure that customers who preorder now will always get a better deal than customers who order later.

At the same time we promise that our prices will be below market price at the time we ship.

This means that customers that preorder now will have considerable lower market prices by the time that we ship which puts them in advantage towards anybody else.

Unless Bitcoin mining stops because it becomes unprofitable for everybody else in February, our customers WILL make profit.

Everybody until now sold you hardware that they knew that you're going to loose money because 1 month later they announced something faster at a better price.
We are guaranteeing that this won't happen with us: If we drop the price you'll get even faster hardware, keeping you in front of everybody else.

Yes, you are guaranteed to get a price 25% below the market price ($/ghash) at the time of shipment.
And yes, we will keep our prices below every other company.

Bottom line is, whoever trusts us now, we promise that will help them to mine profitably after February as well. If you keep supporting other companies who have ripped you off until now, you'll barely get your ROI back.

Dear Customers,

We just want to let you know that we have not forgotten our promise and we will match in Ghash any competitor at the time of shipping. There is no point in discussing yet what extra hashing power you will receive as we have not started shipping yet.

ASIC price match announced in this thread is part of our promise.

Regards!

Prospero X1 miners are not affected by the issue mentioned above and we should start shipping next week once the cases will be delivered.

Our facility is ready, will start Rent-A-Minion as soon as we solve the issue with the backplane.

Dear Customers,

We are happy to let you know that we've just solved the SPI issues.

In the picture below we run only at 1.1Ghz instead of 1.2Ghz because we've hardcoded the voltage at 0.81V and 2 ASICs needed a little bit more.
 

 
Our plan is to tape out the new backplane in 1-2 days, start shipping of X3 on 23rd (after we get the PCBs back and we assemble them). We should be able to deliver all X3s by the end of the month.
(note the use of a live mining pool)

And when does hosting at ba starts?
We should be able to start hashing in 10-12 days.

Let me get this clear: We are not mining. It would be impossible to mine as we only have 5kw of power in our office.

You can ask Joshua where is our mining facility and we will be happy to this this address to check.
(impossible to mine, yet they had a facility ready in May)

Isn't Marto74 helping out AMT and Josh anymore?

Funny how that never gets mentioned in passing.

Josh is Toxic, even if he is he would hardly admit to it publicly. But Josh has insider knowledge of technobits inner workings apparently. Martin is Marto74 evidently. Don't shoot the messenger Josh volunteered this info in a chat.

Some commentary on what Josh thinks of other vendors and his leaky anus mouth spouting off business secrets of the competition?:
Also basically claims martos miners do not last for more than 6 months to do shoddy quality is what I understood by that. Make of it what you will however.
Technobit:

[5/31/2014 12:30:10 AM] Joshua: but.. yea, it works. But the think is technobit/martin is a dick and locks him firmware/software on his boards and his connectivity devices. And because he got into an argument with ckolvakis (cgminer author) he wont inlcude technobit drivers in cgminer
[5/31/2014 12:47:18 AM] Joshua: but martin listens to me a bit, like the whole "make it the size of the HDD hardrive and make sure all the connectors are faces on side" is a major improvement

Over the technobit AMT kerfufle a couple months back:
[6/12/2014 11:57:49 AM] Joshua: Yea martin's not pissed, he said he figure it out pretty quick. All is wel
[6/12/2014 11:58:17 AM] Joshua: its kinda hard to break up two guys who's wive's are friends. Its what they are trying to do it seems

More commentary on business practices:

[8/12/2014 1:47:38 PM] Joshua: it works for A1/A2, BE200 and hopefilly minion if martin gets his shit together

[8/13/2014 1:10:05 PM] Joshua: ok but the lifetime of BTC miners is 6 months
[8/13/2014 1:10:28 PM] Joshua: like Martin skips corners and does shit like that and the lifetime if never touched is like 6 months to a year maybe

Black Arrow and mentions Technobit again

[8/13/2014 12:31:02 PM] Joshua: yea
[8/13/2014 12:31:10 PM] Joshua: but they are good
[8/13/2014 12:31:39 PM] Joshua: also BA is getting pretty desperate
[8/13/2014 12:32:02 PM] Joshua: they have soo many chips and no boards to put them on because they are low on money like us and their board is too expensive to produce
[8/13/2014 12:32:13 PM] Joshua: they just came out with a decent 2 chip board which seemd ok
[8/13/2014 12:32:28 PM] Cust2: mini miner
[8/13/2014 12:32:40 PM] Joshua: like.. slots
[8/13/2014 12:32:49 PM] Joshua: several 2 chilp board slots..
[8/13/2014 12:32:59 PM] Joshua: for X1 devices
[8/13/2014 12:33:18 PM] Joshua: its a nice chip really, just as always chip makers should not be board makers
[8/13/2014 12:33:19 PM] Cust2: Grown up USB key style miners
[8/13/2014 12:33:30 PM] Joshua: and they are just going to copy Asicminers design
[8/13/2014 12:33:57 PM] Joshua: right
[8/13/2014 12:34:14 PM] Joshua: but anyway thats good for me
[8/13/2014 12:34:18 PM] Joshua: because it will look like we did it lol
[8/13/2014 12:34:36 PM] Joshua: and then it'll be like.. AMT, works with A1/A2 BE200 and Minion
[8/13/2014 12:34:54 PM] Me: Who is BA?
[8/13/2014 12:34:55 PM] Joshua: Chip integration specialists!
[8/13/2014 12:34:59 PM] Joshua: Black arrow
[8/13/2014 12:35:01 PM] Joshua: minion
[8/13/2014 12:35:02 PM] Me: ah
[8/13/2014 12:35:18 PM] Joshua: they are romanians based here in shenzhen
[8/13/2014 12:35:32 PM] Joshua: but not the most ehtical
[8/13/2014 12:35:46 PM] Joshua: built a shit load of prospero 3's and are mining with the hardware
[8/13/2014 12:36:00 PM] Joshua: and gave chips to clients as compensation
[8/13/2014 12:36:08 PM] Joshua: who in turn, ofcourse has no where to other than technobit
[8/13/2014 12:36:17 PM] Cust2: yep
[8/13/2014 12:36:22 PM] Joshua: who now spent 200K on compoennts and may go broke on this
[8/13/2014 12:36:25 PM] Joshua: lol
[8/13/2014 12:36:40 PM] Joshua: but martin will be left with several minion boards to sell off
[8/13/2014 12:37:01 PM] Joshua: which will devaluate minion because he sales at the bare minimum and always tries to undercut the market
[8/13/2014 12:37:14 PM] Joshua: and todays chip price for A1, $16
[8/13/2014 12:37:23 PM] Cust2: good lord.
[8/13/2014 12:37:32 PM] Joshua: well its the best price
[8/13/2014 12:37:40 PM] Joshua: even the swiss cant sell  under $20
[8/13/2014 12:37:54 PM] Joshua: but i can sell at $16, quietly

EDIT: Added Some personal chats I had with Josh's thoughts on Technobit's CEO.

Hey,
I dont know if this exists, but im looking for a module with an advanced search functionality, or layers of search that can be displayed with options. Also I'm looking for a module that is integrated with the previous function, with classified listings, for example yellow pages type listings, or a linked in business search.

Waiting for your replies, thanks and let me know.

It's called a site search plugin in Boonex Dolphin that has been around since 2008....the irony is a google search would have turned it up back then as I used that code on a site I built with that exact same functionality....since my support was solicited in the future via the gleb gamow time travel support service.....here is the code. Me thinks as this is the present that you have no clue what to do with this information even now.
http://www.boonex.com/doc/d1/d04/_bx_g_search_module_8php_source.html

This also adds a bit more SEO functionality you were seeking. Took me about 5 minutes of googling which would have yielded similar results in 2010...and 2008 as well. That said the code for the search box is pretty well known if you are any kind of PHP  programmer. It is part of the google API and well documented for most programming languages ESPECIALLY PHP.

Can someone please list the template files that are specific towards editing color, font, shape, look and design of the software. I know of the CSS files, but please be more specific. Help me out with this and ill take those files to the right guys who will make us a whole bunch more free templates. Gotta love eastern european outsourcing- better than indians, at cheaper prices.

Is there anyway to change the navigation menu's shape? For instance to have it verticle and not horizontal? Please let me know if you have or have not seen this.

Hey people,

Im new to Dolphin and before i get started i hope some of you will answer these few questions.

1, I was wondering if anyone has figured out a way to change the actual shape and design of the navigation menu on the index page. If this is possible please let me know, i want to diversify my site from all the other dolphin sites out there, and i believe a menu change is needed.
2. Changing colors, and template design. I'm familure with editing basic html templates/flash with dream weaver /flash and such, and i wonder how difficult it is to change to this template, should i even bother? On a scale from 1 to 10, 1 being the lowest, please let me know.

3. Before i go on a scavenger hunt, in which directory can i find the exact files relating to the design, and what files do you recommend to start with.
4. Some ideas or options i may have regarding changing design. Besides the basic, buy a template option.
5. How is dolphin when it comes to SEO optimization and organic advertising? Pros and Cons?

Thanks so much for those of you respond.

Also, if any experienced user is willing to have a 10 minute conversation with me, regarding dolphin development, that would be really cool. My skype is JZDTack624, im always on skype.

Hello All.

I'd like to introduce myself. I'm Paul, a client of AMT. I ordered a few miners back in March and I've received both of them and they are mining just fine. I too, to some extent share your feelings, but I realize that your hurting all of AMT's clients by continuing to bash AMT. See, I'm a realist, I ordered from each company as a hedge. I knew there would be delays, and I was in touch with AMT throughout most of it. But you guys can't be dumb enough to think that hurting the company is going to help anyone get what they want. 
 
One question: When did you receive your miners? Recently? Months ago?

Oh and I know who Paul Augustine really is. He is your real estate agent......I highly doubt the real Paul Augustine would appreciate you impersonating him. Do you want to keep up this farce? Man up for once in your life and actually handle this as yourself instead of behind these sock puppets. Noone is fooled. But you sure look the fool doing more of this. Own up and man up. But I doubt you can since you clearly are incapable of it and have an obsession with this forum that you simply cannot let go. See I will admit I have one. In fact its more fun than the so-called war games you accused me of being a part of. I can play my tactical video games and in the down time come on here and pen posts to expose you. That is how easy it is. You are an afterthought for me in that sense. But you Joshua Zipkin impersonating your real estate agent Paul Augustine, needs to put real effort into keeping appearances. And those appearances show the truth of the matter. The very fact you have to resort to these sock puppets is a clear indicator of your character.

@ADMIN/MODS FYI if these forums DO get hacked you can be sure to look at Joshua Zipkin first. I am sure he is hard at work finding some script kiddie to try to hack it for 5k. Call the FBI and whoever else and just point them at him. These chats are stored on Microsoft servers as its Skype so its easy for the FBI to jump on and get all the info since he cant remove those chats Wink He is an American citizen BUT is apparently in Bulgaria currently, so if it happens in the next few days, well call Bulgarian authorities. BUT American authorities can still get him seeing as he has a US passport. BUT again a previously unreleased chat.

The information here has ruined his prospects and banks/investors will not touch him by his own admission:

[8/10/2014 10:41:42 AM] Joshua: real investors wont touch me because of the forum
[8/10/2014 10:41:58 AM] Joshua: i never want to return to the pre-ordermodel again
[8/10/2014 10:42:06 AM] Me: Right it sucks.
[8/10/2014 10:42:12 AM] Me: Everyone sees that.

This right here shows the motive he would have to hack the forum. JUST so he could do the ultimate in censoring. BUT there are those of us who know how the internet works. EVEN if you managed to delete the database of this forum and crash it......well there are other things that make sure it never goes away. And the Admins here are sharp guys. I know who ckolivas is foremost from his Linux Scheduler work before cgminer. So I know the kind of people on here managing this forum are far better at locking this site down. BUT in the event you get lucky. Well there are contingencies to make sure your information stays out there and the truth is out there. This is Z-Files. The truth is out there. This is for you "Paul.Augustine" Aka Joshua Zipkin.
