DONT GIVE THIS GUY ANY MONEY UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCE AND DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIMEAltcoin Guy is INCOMPETENT. He will try to explain all of his mistakes away. If he tries I will post all of our messages and make a liar out of him.
LIST OF BLUNDER AFTER BLUNDER
1. He made an agreement with me that he would build my coin and I would test the win wallet and no source. After testing I would pay him and then he would send me the source. All of this in lieu of escrow.
2. He sent me the Win wallet for testing. It did not connect, He replied "I (me) forgot to make a .cond file." Trying to make it my mistake. I had assumed he coded the IP's into the wallet already like any competent developer would so I would not need a .conf. When I called him on it, he said "That would be silly thing to do” WTF? Yep that is what he said!
OK
THE REALITY IS HE GAVE ME THE WRONG PORT NUMBER. He has done this before here: read the negative feedback in his REP/TRUST THREAD HERE where it did this before.
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/delete-rep-7124563. I make .conf file. Still does not connect. He told me it was because I don’t know how to mine. He likes to blame the client for his mistakes. So I asked him to send me a proper .conf file and .bat file. 5 minutes work right? HE REFUSED over and over saying he did not have time. He did not want to admit he gave me the wrong port number.
4. So I blow this guy off because he is an idiot and next he sends me a pm asking for money because "He invested time and I should pay him something for his time". He had not even delivered a working coin to test. What a joke. I ignore.
5. Several days, like a week or so later he sends be a .conf and .bat file and sends me the "instructions on how to mine" And low and behold it had the correct port number. So I began mining.
6. Maybe a day later he sends me an email that’s says that he put the premine in the genesis block on accident. Can you believe this guy? At least he admitted his mistake this time. (Actually the genesis block and premine were ok).
This tells me he is not even making the coins. He is having someone else make them.
7. At this point he is asking me for money again. I wanted to wait for the POW phase to end which he originally said would take 1 day to complete so I could see it stake. Then I would pay. Fair enough right?
8. It took 2 days for the POW phase to end not 1.
AND THE COIN DID NOT STAKE AT ALL! WTF!?!?9. He now says it won’t stake because the min stake is 3 days. IT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE 3 HOURS!
10. I believe in giving a guy a chance and to try and work things out. So I wait the 3 days. AND GUESS WHAT?
IT STILL DOESN'T STAKE! What a joke!
So he asks me to wait 1 or 2 days more while he looked in to it.
11. After the end of 2nd day I still here nothing. So I PM him and he says he fixed the problem but he wants a payment first and that I am too much trouble.
DEFINETELY NOT WHAT WE AGREED AND CONSIDERING HIS TRACK RECORD I WOULD BE A FOOL TO GIVE HIM A DIME AT THIS POINT without seeing a fully functional coin and having the code reviewed by someone else. HE COULD NOT MAKE THE COIN SO THIS WAS HIS WAY OUT.
12. I sent him 1 more message to try to shame him into honoring his word give me a working coin to test. He refused. “Because he did not like my tone.” LOL. (more like he because can’t even build a coin).
14. By his own admission he can’t even compile a Windows wallet. He admits this himself at the very beginning of his post here at the bottom:
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/please-delete-665279 15. I also note that he has no positive feedback on his rep thread except some new account with 3 posts. Obviously a shill. And the only other feedback he has is negative!
I hope somebody benefits from this and saves time and money.
AVOID THIS SCHUCK.BTW, I’m still looking for a dev.
NOTE: I OFFERED TO TAKE THIS DOWN IF COULD ACTUALLY PRODUCE THE WORKING COIN. SOIF YOU ARE READING THIS, HE IS STILL UNABLE TO PRODUCE THE WORKING COIN.
... Although I should have provided a guide ...
