JShock: @Dzefa954: We have not lost any customer service agents

Uhhmm ? Someone is lying then..

We still have all the same agents brought in at end of 2013 and early 2014

Goddamn it, Jim, why can't you be straight-up with us? The agents you speak of are support carried over from http://web.archive.org/web/20111007060831/http://www.supportshift.com/about.php, with Reina Salibio and Leah Rombo being personal friends of you, your wife and Paul Vernon.

Back to the lies, the following two accounts by Jim and John DON'T jive!


I haven't chimed in in a while and want to clear up a few things as far as what I did at Cryptsy and a few other details.

Gleb if you go back in the board history you'll see I used to sell alts on the boards here. I met Paul on Litebonk (he ran the pool). When Worldcoin came out I asked if he knew how to set up a pool and he did for that and every new alt that came out. Back then there was a new one like once a month. Anyhow he inquired on the litebonk boards if anyone would use an alt exchange if we had one for the Litebonk miners. Of course we all liked that idea. So if you wee a litebonk miner you got to betatest Cryptsy. Make a long story short several of us beta tested and became moderators. I enjoyed moderating so stayed on and volunteered for the next year. [Cryptsy went live on May 20, 2013. Add a year - DO THE MATH!]

Cryptsy had only one paid employee after a year and that was the accountant. [The account is Jim Shockney's wife, Virginia "Ginny" Bryant-Shockney] When the wall street journal article about Cryptsy hit things hit the fan and just about everyone who was a volunteer became a paid employee. [Here's the WSJ article dated November, 13, 2013: http://www.wsj.com/news/articles/SB10001424052702303789604579195773841529160] Paul's other company was brought in to provide support. The other company was an offshore support company. They are the same agents you see now. [Again, just folks living abroad who also handled Paul, Jim and Ginny's http://web.archive.org/web/20111007060831/http://www.supportshift.com/about.php, which is no longer a company]

My main role was as the PR manager I handled the public, social media, advertising etc. I was a salaried employee and promoted the sites. Mintsy was a side company owned 50-50 by Project Investors and DigitalBTC. Yes I promoted it too as part of my job . The problem with Mintsy is DigitalBTC basically took all the revenues, and pulled out. I'd give some numbers, but trying to be as detailed without breaking my NDA I signed.

My last job I held was in operations managing the Customer support, Human Resources, Security folks. When the CTO resigned I filled in there for a while as well managing the developers. The new UI and such was my push. I left because I was literally doing to many peoples jobs for not enough money. Cut into family time and I was ready to do something else.

This thread was started by a guy who was being affected by a weird DB bug that would put the wrong hash for your password when you reset it. It got resolved with him.

Horus is an always has been the same person.... Not sure where you got confused on that. He took over my PR role.

Again the majority of the stakeholders (the folks who own it) in Cryptsy are not the people you see posting here beyond BigVern. The folks who post on these boards are salaried worker bees.


EDIT: Greenlion was let go the day after I left....


Prior to the run-up just mullick and I worked support and did it as volunteers. [Run-up date circa November 2013; 1/2 year after Cryptsy went live] The next person hired after accountant [porn star, Ginny Bryant-Shockney] was the first developer/CTO. [CTO was Bryant Ibana: http://web.archive.org/web/20131102234026/https://www.cryptsy.com/pages/about; Marshall Long is the CTO of project Investors, Inc.] Im really not concerned if you think it makes sense its a fact. The site only had 30k account after the first year. [like Leroy Fodor who can't calculate his GMT time in the Philippines, BitJohn continues to confuse a half year with a year]

EDIT:
The support scaled pretty quickly when the support company was merged. [again, supportshift.com, now defunct] Jshock and his crew joined the team. [the crew consisted of Jim Shockney and his porn star wife and two fellow porn actress friends living in the Philippines] Mullick, and I trained them. [keep this in mind when you read Jim's account which follows below] Mullick moved to Florida, and started getting a paycheck. I joined after that.

I guess its time to make an appearance. Though it will be short.
I personally do not have the patience or right temperament for forums fud and trolls, so I tend to keep away from where they reside.

Just to clear up a couple of things:
Horus and Pr9me were volunteers to start, [BitJohn doesn't mention them above] when i came on board and the WSJ article came out we needed some extra help in company and we brought
them both in.
[doing the MATHS, that 1/2 year after Cryptsy came online, NOT A YEAR] At that time however neither were actual employees and Pr9me wasnt putting in the time he was getting paid for so he was basically let go.
Horus after a time was then hired by us. [by one account by BitJohn, he, Mullick and Horus were hired on the same day, confirmed in the next sentence] To my knowledge Pr9me is not Horus and Im pretty sure i brought them both on at same time.. [Jim Shockney and his crew were supposedly brought on and trained by BitJohn to handle support, but here is Jim claiming he did the hiring]

We have a new PR manager who will begin addressing the public very soon. He works for me and his name is HORUS  lol  Enjoy! [This PR dude named HORUS whom we've yet to meet replaced BitJohn]

Somewhere within the lies presented above by JShock aka Jim Shockney aka [Smolin'] Humbolt and BitJohn aka [wait till we finally discover his real identity] lies the for-real truth.

Volume still drying up.  Subtract out the phony BTC/EUR of $125,453 and you get a total of $134k in a 24 hour period.  Poloniex is now up to $1,542,406 in the last 24 hours:

@JShock
What was said is not too important to me.

What i seen on your Troll-Box while i ate breakfast is a user of yours asking you a question.
What is the problem and why not make an announcement about it ?
I mentioned this many times and i see a comment from BitJohn agreeing with me (more than once before)
Your silence is 1000x more damaging that any Troll's FUD'ing !

What i see is You JShock talking.. like the chat user said going on months now.
Either you don't know what is going on like you claimed on chat today.
OR you -DO- know what is going on but won't say.

Any explanations put forth have been grossly inadequate according to public opinion.

All i can say is Jim if you *really* don't know what is going on ?
Then all i can say is it's NOW time to put in on Vern and say hey, LOOK this has gone on long enough !

What we see is, BigVern runs things behind the scenes and YOU are the public figure talking.
Do you like taking all the flack for it all ?
Or do you think Paul Vernon should man up and say what -he- did behind the scenes ?

..

I'd pretty much guarantee JShock has never even seen the web sites code etc.
If anyone is screwing with things or guilty of running an incompetent faulty exchange it's BigVern !
And if JShock can't explain what is going on then the person -WHO CAN- needs to step up ASAP !

The only solution i see to this is BigVern needs to make a major public announcement coming 100% clean and needs to explain in detail what has been the problem.

Are you working from an Indian call center JShock ? Wink

Interesting parts put in as BitJohn calls it "Ginormous Troll Font" LOL

I do believe i was right and yes i always can back up my mouth  Cool

I notified Cryptsy about negative balance withdrawals in 2013 but biggie Vern hasn't learned to read e-mails yet and 2 years later it still worked in almost the same way.

Everybody knew it was a fucking broken piece of shit laggy scam site since inception.

Yes, we did Fonty. Yes, we did. But wot about the poor innocent newbs?

Always need the fix, always get a good chuckle when he spouts off.

uhhmm NO.

What you want is them to give people their coins and close the door forever.
Exchanges that know how to run a business deserve your money.

You know what you people are ?

They didn't just have a problem for a couple weeks.. it's been months and many times before that for years.

PLEASE STOP enabling Cryptsy with their shenanigans People !

a FODOR exchange ? AHHAHAHAHHAHA

And someone needs to tell the little morons on Cryptsy chat..
Testing transfers with small amounts will not prove a larger amount will work fine.

Listen up retards.. Uncle Spoetnik is going to learn you sumthin'

"What exactly is the withdrawal issue?"

I cannot verify what others have experienced, only myself.  For many of the alt coins there have been withdrawal problems over the last year.  Let's say you put in a withdrawal for 100k FLO.  It would show up as 100k pending.  Then you'd refresh and it would show 50k.  Then 25k.  This happened to me many times, this halving of the number requested.  Then some time around the first of this month it got REALLY bad.  All BTC and LTC withdraws would go straight to pending and be forever "stuck".  A request to cancel the withdrawal would be immediately followed if requested.  A lot people were converting to DOGE to withdraw and then DOGE withdraws started locking up.  Obviously people who arb coins would be the first to notice as their accounts will sometimes get out of balance and have to re-balanced by having to withdraw coin from exchange to exchange.


What your describing is what the programming does to mitigate wallet issues with too many inputs. So you make a withdraw the RPC request hangs. It cuts it in half and tries again (less inputs). It will continue to do that until the RPC call is successful.

Note: He also elaborated on that some more previously on this topic.
But never mind that ..it's "FUD" after all (by BitJohn who worked there)

This needs to be screamed at the morons LOUDLY !
I have been watching the Cryptsy TrollBox off & On for a while now and all i ever see
is idiots saying.. "try some small amount of XYZ coin"
Further more.. user(s) have backed up what i said with testimonial.
This is not theory.. this is how it is working right NOW !

And it's even funnier watching Cryptsy staff hang out non stop on chat using alternate names to hide..
and they don't say anything (to help fix the problem)
They could warn people but they don't .. they let all the idiots think that scenario will work.
AND they know damn well it won't !
Last night i heard many times.. you can't blame them for hiding etc..
while people mocked them for using names to hide.
And YES i can blame them.. It's Their JOB !

A pinnacle of Integrity.. a world class leader in Crypto.

As well we are in the early stages of the development of a Stakeminer client altcoin exchange.

You read correctly! Leroy Fodor's gonna run his own exchange, building such because us naysayers ruined Cryptsy. The exchange will come complete with its own solar powered website and troll-free chat, and fully blessed by Helen of Ohio via her prayers. HAHAHA
