The bonus was 1 per user an you tried to scam for many Bitcoin.
The terms for the bonus were very unclear:
Bonus terms:
[...]
Bonus can only be claimed once
[...]
Is that once per account? Or once per person? Or once per computer? Or once per household? Or once per IP address? Or something else?
You said "bonus can only be claimed once", and despite me asking twice for clarification as to what that was meant to mean you never provided the requested clarification.
I think the most obvious interpretation would be "once per account", since the site wouldn't let me claim twice on the same account, but would let me claim twice on the same computer, from the same household. I don't think it's fair to withhold funds from players who misinterpreted your incredibly vague terms.
It's also very rude of you to call this player a scammer. He wasn't scamming you. He was playing within the stated rules. If you offer stupid exploitable bonuses please don't blame anyone but yourself when people inevitably try to exploit them. Promising a bonus and then refusing to pay it makes you the scammer, not the people trying to claim the bonus.
I didn't reply to you because I had ended the promo anyway so the info didn't matter.
I deliberately did a +ev promo for relaunch to give a little bonus to legist players and old fans of the site.
People who played within the rules liked and appreciated it, got their bonus and withdrew, no problem.
It was clear that I said the promo can only be claimed once.
I don't have to write everything into 100 very specific terms to make it obvous what that meant or to protect myself.
He was a scammer. He took 4 Bitcoin during the promo and I let him withdraw it.
THEN I changed the backend to limit it better and he still looked for ways to exploit that for another 4 Bitcoin.
That is obviously then clear cheating or playing not as intended.
He withdrew most of this. I confiscated around 1.4 Bitcoin, so less than 8 and 0.1 deposis don't cover the 8.
I didn't come back after 8 months to argue with you or anyone in this forum or to have people steal from me.
Lesson learned and it won't happen again.
But they won't get ther withdrawals and that is the final decision. Coreect decision too. I won't make any other posts about it.
I have a small investment in your ICO, but now I'm seriously considering just to dump it.
Why?
1. You are changing terms in a minutes
2. You are talking about BetKing - like a real king "I had ended", I I I I
3. You are confiscating money??
Should't we /the investors/ to have the last word about the site development and path?!
1) Never happened.
2) The people in this forum know that I, Dean, run this account, I am the owner of BetKing and was having a direct conversation so it would be weird to write "we" or anything else. This is how I speak.
3) I am stopping someone stealing MORE money from me, big difference.
"Should't we /the investors/ to have the last word about the site development and path?!"
No. Token holders have no share in the company or voting rights.
Oppinions and recommendations are however always welcome.
If you are really a token holder it seems weird that you would give trolls ammo in this forum with your comment even though everyone else who posted has shown support for my decision.
Yes, I'm a token holder. A small one, but still.
This is not trolling. I love to watch what my money are doing.
About changing terms I meant bounty program (did you pay it out?), 30-100x wagering on bonus and so on.
Good luck on your project. As you sees your self as the real King and there is no 'we' with investors, ok, I will move to another project.
