Topic: GAW Miners (Scrypt/SHA256 miners and Hashlet cloud) independent feedback thread - page 43. (Read 82240 times)

zenminer.com works now.

And I did receive a shipping # around 11 last night so hopefully I will see my Black Widow soon.

I don't think there was ever any doubt that GAW lied about this one. If you click on the "Register" link on Zen site it doesn't do anything, so there is no way they would be disallowing registration by order number or serial number or whatever, since it doesn't even ask for any of those things. It's just not working yet, period. But admitting such a fact in GAW universe is deemed to be less honorable than making up a totally incredible story about selective registration. Sometimes I think the CEO is about 8 years old - I think that's roughly the age when you feel confident and invincible in your fantasy world and adults around you kind of go along with it ascribing it to "creativity".

Oh this is fantastic. Is this going to be as quick as their shipping though?

10pm eastern time and still no tracking # for my Black Widow (Week 1).  I did get a real live tracking # for my Zeus Cyclone and it will be here on Thursday.  Maybe Zenminer will work by then?

I think you have this backwards. Nobody is cutting out anything here. You are cutting out a lot of stuff in your "official" thread. This thread wouldn't even exist if you didn't do that.

Speaking of agenda, you've been gawfully silent on the question of sockpuppeting. What's your position on that? Legitimate marketing practice?

tl;dr Nobody received their miners today so we can be confident that nobody wants the software and that Zen doesn't need to be functioning yet either. As for tomorrow, well...

As is yours. Those might be the only ones posting here but the bystanders see the content.

Besides, you delete the negative feedback on your thread regularly. Who are you to tell them not to post the good (and probably shilled) comments. Whats worse, not telling the whole truth or deleting the truth?

The users here are copying any challenges customers are having from our official company thread. They are purposely cutting out positive feedback and only posting the ones that are issues.

As evident by the fact that the same 2 users post over and over again. Their agenda is fairly obvious.........

Looks like the CEO is backpedaling on shipping. What the heck does it even mean - "verify each tracking number to make there has been an update", or "calling to get the tracking number updated before its sent". Are they licking stamps or something?

If anyone would like to share or PM a public pool stats link for a GAW miner I can put it into the OP for more exposure. Or if a new hardware performance thread is created please let me know and I'll link to it.

My experience with their CS was terrible. Sent in a question last Monday, Thomas got replied to me within the evening saying I would be directed to sales specialist. Great! I thought, then come Thursday I wanted to see why I got no reply and then just got ignored. Tried posting in the GAWMiners thread hoping the active GAW people would reply but ignored again.

Trying with Juan now from 112bit since Thursday (Memorial Weekend might be keeping him busy). My question was so simple too, I just wanted to if GAW could do anything as per their best price policy with the S1 Antminers because I noticed $150 difference. Wanted to show some support by purchasing from them but nope!

Got Wildstar coming out this weekend and I wanted to setup my miners by then but now it's going to cut into my game time.

Feeling like I need to beg to spend some money heh :l

Re reactor's posts: it is an unmoderated thread so we'll have to learn to live with some users having a lot of frustration to vent or perhaps uber-ecstatic fans too - yet to see one of those but I'm sure it will happen. I do agree however that reactor should consider starting a Scam Accusations thread if he (or she, damn interwebs anonymity) feels so strongly about it. I'm myself quite indifferent now as I'm 5 minutes away from becoming an ex-customer, but reactor has some very important points, like the proof of sockpuppeting by the CEO. This is one of those things that puts all other GAW actions into a certain perspective.

I see you boys and girls are having fun

I just wanted to comment on one point made by Rami in the GAW thread: he or she or ... anyway, Rami mentioned that any compensation for delivery delays only applies to packages STAMPED later than the promised date, not accepted. Just keep in mind that GAW have mastered the old eBay trick of printing a shipping label days before actually shipping the product, so that will be your "stamped" date. In other words, good luck getting your compensation should you ever need one.

On a positive note, looks like hosted miners are coming up and hashing, so hopefully deliveries will meet the estimates too.

+1

Reactor, 90% of the posts on this page are yours, would you mind starting a thread in scam accusation and deal with your dirty laundry there?

This is a feedback thread, to give feedback.. you hijacked this thread and turned it into a personal vendetta, you also most likely got 80% of the people that had notified turned on to turn it off. 

If you want to talk about Fraud, start a fraud thread with an appealing title... if you want to talk about scam accusation, post it in the right forum... Do it once or twice here but don't hijack the thread... this is a feedback thread for positive and negative feedback and you turned this into a circus revolving around conversations between you and Josh.  We understand they delete your posts, please stop re-posting the same thing times and times and times again.. keep it to new stuff, no point re-posting THE SAME complaint 50 times. 

Rami is a guy. 

They just replied on their thread, the miner software will be available tomorrow.

Reactor, I'm all for free speech and don't agree with moderation on the main thread but it's their choice and we have to live with it, that's how this thread came to life. Things were rocky for a while but they got better (I can only talk about hosting), my blade has been hashing rock solid for a while and complains I had earlier and posted about on this thread seems to be a thing of the past. My blade went down today (and I don't remember the last time it went down so it's been a while), I sent an email to support and got a reply and it was back up within 5 minutes from me sending the email.  I agree that the increase power usage with Zen is a bummer but it's been disclosed. I don't believe they're against canceling orders if it's a deal breaker for someone... so if it's a deal breaker for someone it sounds and look like there's a way out.  Personally I only have 1 black widow (to be shipped) on order and am comfortable with the increase in power usage, power is cheap where I live and I'm not running a data center so the impact on me is minimal, my electrical wiring won't catch fire.  Another option is to have them host it and they will pay for the increase in power (and not you).  

I also wonder about being able to compile sgminer/cpuminer or something to run on my own Pi image and hope they'll be a fork for people wanting to do so.  Information about it isn't as clear as it should (I'm a couple of days being on reading the main thread so I may have missed something).  As above, if they are willing to cancel orders for people to whom it's a big deal then I don't see any issues with it, they can get their money back and order something else from somewhere else... It may be a pain but I don't believe that anyone is being held hostage unlike customers of BFL, KNC and the likes on the SHA256 side of things.  If it can only run it with their Pi image and it's a big deal, I'm almost certain that anyone requesting to cancel their order will most likely be granted their request.

It serves no purpose to post the same thing over and over again, I think we must have 5 pages of the same questions by you, re-posting another 5 page of the same thing won't get you an answer and will only make this thread useless as keeping up with it takes time and reading pages and pages of the same complain by the same person renders it useless.  I suggest you edit the same post or something throughout the day.

Lastly, I think we should try and remain civil, we get that you're angry and don't like Josh but there's no need to go down to that level.  Saying you don't agree with the way the company is being run and being constructive is a lot different than saying f*****g this, f*****g that, calling people jackasses and the list goes on.  I'm not interested in personal vendettas, this was meant to be a feedback thread and it's almost to the point like it's been hijacked now.

Kudos to Zeus, they actually managed to make it worse than I expected even after all the disappointing spec changes:

About the only positive I can say about is that unlike Gridseed they put a grille on the fan, so that will save small domestic animals from getting chopped into pieces.
