I think that was done a while ago from memory. Either that or it was a Signature changing protest
Great thinking that might work

Pretty sad they would be allowed to advertise..
The forum adminstrator is still quite young, and has not fully grasped the fundamental opposition of ancap philosophy to fraud.

Why dont BFL haters (and perhaps competitors) pool a few BTC and bid on an anti BFL ad ?

BFL just won advertising on forums auction....Makes me sick to even see them advertise. Some poor new guy will get scammed from it.
I have actually seen this happen. A month or so ago I got a phone call from a guy who had just gotten married and who had recently placed orders with BFL hoping to fund the nest egg for the union with BFL gear.
I had a bit of a "Come To Jesus Meeting" with him and he was able to get his Paypal refunded but could do nothing about the wire transfer and the BTC transactions.
He was quite literally devasted along with his new wife who is now on his ass for allowing himself to be scammed.
Hell of a way to start a marriage, eh?
My $.02.
Feel sorry for the guy. No matter how many threads we put up preaching the gospel of "Don't get scammed by these unholy fothermuckers!" the ads will snag a few suckers every time.
True enough!
My $.02.

Dose anyone have the email of the pay-pal case worker that is handling BFL refunds, I emailed the links for the redit and one other article but never got a response.

Sigh just spotted the advertisement.. Hope not too many fall for it.

Picture from the EU Bitcoin convention where they are beating up on Joshua (in Dutch) half way around the world.
From: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.3248773
The English translation of the caption under Josh is:
Do you have an order with Butterfly Labs and still received nothing? Come get your order tomorrow, he gives them out on the Conference
You would think being such a force in the Bitcoin community, he wouldn't have to sit in the back in a corner

I'm all for solid Josh bashing, but that looks like a cafe not a conference room. Don't let's be silly.
Even at a cafe he isn't allowed to sit at the adults table
Even with his Big Boy pants? He must be devastated...

I wonder if there is any liability for this very forum if they continue taking money from a company that is scamming people?

I think all of his chickens are coming home to roost (FINALLY)
Nobody wants to deal with BFL...I am amazed that he even thinks of traveling to these conferences without feeling like he was going to get a hammer to the back of his head at any moment..
He should join YIFU in the the now vacated AL-Cadia hide out cave in the mountains..They can then do their own version of BrokeBack ASIC the dark Cave edition
I think the title of the move will be
"In a dark cave Everybody can find themselfs"
or
"Even ConMen have needs and deep love to give eachover when no one else will "
....lolz

That look on his face just screams, "I have made a huge mistake coming here." I hope they threw old Josh under the bus, literally and figuratively.
