MooC, why don't you dig back in time and look at my first reply to you and look at what it was in response to. Yes, you were an asshole and I responded in kind.
Yes, Xian, you too were and asshole and I responded in kind.
I never start out being an asshole. If you are rational and polite, I will respond in a rational and polite manner. If you are a spittle flinging cretin, you get a rude response. If you get a rude response, you need to take a long, hard look in the mirror and ask yourself why someone responded to you in that manner.
What about all the people that voice their opinions about how late your promises are like Xian01 that was cancelled on. You obviously found him an asshole and freed him from your responsibility to deliver his product.
There are plenty of examples of people voicing there opinions and being negative about BFL, both here and on the BFL forums. For some reason, they are able to act like adults and converse in a civilized manner. Xian, on the other hand, decided to go full tantrum mode and pitch a fit. I ignored it for many weeks, giving him many chances to settle down and he chose to just amp up the lies and misinformation. It was time to cut him loose. People like him cost more to maintain than they are worth as customers, thus we cut ties with him. Now he's free to fling spittle and foam all he wants without the encumbrance of being a hypocrite.
What about the part where you ripped on AVALON and other ASIC competitors, lead a ton of people into purchasing their dreams for you, and you trailing them on for months and months on end? You say you are sorry, but you are still doing the same routine. You are still telling people you will ship to them in 2 months, when you haven't even dug 3 days into last years orders. There's a reasonable time when you should realize that you are not going to fulfill the production you are promising and you have to stop taking pre-orders. That was last year. When you failed everyone a second time. But you keep failing. Intentionally as it appears.
So I point out how you introduced yourself on the stage as an asshole first, and that contradicts what you are saying. Is this why you retracted my orders? Or may it had something to do with my antagonizing your ability to keep track of wafers.
Just wondering. I figured it's pretty reasonable to be upset with you by the time you use the same excuse a second time (nearly a year later nonetheless).
I'm allowed to be upset with the performance of your company, and how it endorses your predatory nature. You've made trolls out of potential buyers and BTC advocates. They don't come from nowhere. They are the people you've alienated with your reckless antics.
