How do you go from barely able to write English to being an native speaker in a few days? I just can't believe hooked on phonics works so well at BFL. How many accounts did the employees at BFL have to make for Josh and CO.?

As a first step the admins here could ban the Newbies from posting anywhere except the Beginners section. And as far as the purchased accounts are considered, why can't we freeze accounts, whose location (i.e IP) suddenly changes from one country to another? For example, some guy in China is having an inactive Bitcointalk account, which he sells to BFL. The BFL guys (probably in the US) resume posting. But the IP address will change from China to US. Why can't we freeze such accounts. If you do this, then 90% of the BFL spam can be avoided.

Because a lot of people like me use a VPN to post.

Investing in BFL hardware doesn't seem any more risky than investing in BTC in the first place. It's a gamble. Don't put in more than you can stand to lose.

Hindsight is 20-20. BFL was an abject failure compared to a straight BTC purchase. Millions were lost in trusting BFL.

I have this feeling that all the idiots who scream that BFL is a scam will just disappear and make new accounts later this year. And there will be a few nuts that believe that hundreds of forum users are being paid by BFL to act like they got working ASIC's.

No some got up and made the effort and started a class action lawsuit... care to admit you were wrong yet?

Thanks Creativex.  

I saw it stated somewhere on the forum where the total amount might be near $100 million in pre-orders.  I don't know if that's an exaggeration.
Where you saw statement? $100million is 1000 mini rig + 53850 SC, a bit much?
I wait for 4 avalon unit, 1 bfl mini rig unit.

I have a question regarding the bolded statement -- The guy "running the company" isn't the guy who was convicted of mail fraud.

Actually he was running the company.  As soon as it became known who he was and what he'd done they quickly arranged to transfer the CEO title to somebody else.  Go ahead, look it up.
You say, so you know, so you show?



How do you go from barely able to write English to being an native speaker in a few days? I just can't believe hooked on phonics works so well at BFL. How many accounts did the employees at BFL have to make for Josh and CO.?

I was watching a posting argument between Garr and Inaba where both were throwing so many sock puppet posts so fast I couldn't refresh the screen fast enough to catch it all. Accounts with 1 or 2 previous posts were bringing up very knowledgable counter arguments like they were involved in Bitcoin since Satoshi started it all. lol


Yup... now if anyone has reason to believe that BFL scammed them they should go here and get involved.

Don't let BFL get away with consumer fraud stand up and fight back.

What a load of crap here, a fool that was licking that bASIC guy's ass for months, so he choose the wrong horse, same conversion bullshit as for months but not talking/crying for bitcoin when the bitcoin was $3 now, class action haha. That's like the weaker guy shouting "hold me hold me" before I attack the big guy.
Go get a refund, anyone that wants one gets it, be the man or stop pretending to be What's your next option, wait for another chance for an avalon? I was lucky for 4x batch 2, so what will you do, wait, or wait&hope to be lucky?

When did you buy this account? Fun how the style of language changes from barely able to write to BFL Troll amazing.

Don't you love how people feel the need to tell you they are putting you on their ignore list?  Like it is some monumental occasion that you are being ignored by someone who has no influence on any facet of life.

It reminds me of a mouse trying to explain to a falcon that he is being ignored. What is the point?  The falcon doesn't care, but I'm sure the mouse thinks that he has some measure of control over the events around him.  Unfortunately for the mouse, that measure of control is purely an illusion, but I'm sure it makes the mouse feel a lot better for a brief period of time.



I know I agree with you on this comment you made:) not to long ago some one also ignored me and blocked me from their twitter account.... hmm... I wonder who it was.....

Yeah im gonna agree, posting an old image like that is simmilar to saying that the guy who ordered the 10k bitcoin pizza was an idiot

Seriously, though, the guy who ordered a Bitcoin pizza way back when wasn't making fraudulent claims about a product that was supposedly going to be delivered in a couple weeks. 

That guy was an innovator, in that he was one of the first people who used Bitcoin for its actual purpose, that is, as currency.

Sorry, haven't been paying much attention.

So did the new monarch Asic's ship in January like they said? It is January 31st. I'm sure BFL has come a long way in their past 3, 4, 7 failed attempts at delivering a product to spec, and on time, right?

lulz

lmao.... er...NO!
