Hold the phone... Since when did BigThickRick get pulled into all this Iamsedii garbage? There is no proof that BigThickRick is associated with Iamsedii by anything other than they both did the icolist.guru posts... Come on now people...

How about the evidence in first page of this thread? Not enough to link those 2 accounts?

Exactly... You get it... There is no proof... LOL Show me some proof... I tried to find some to validate the claim on the first page and there is absolutely 100% no proof besides for that guy saying that they are linked!! Unless you take his word for Gospel... which apparently you do... I am still seeing no proof... Sad

You people should stop referring to yourselves as another person. BigThickRick, no one is buying your excuses.

Btw, I found this:

YOUR ETH Address: 0xea547ac6fbccb799aeca66f1f716b21363c06beb which is also BigThickRick ETH address, PROOF

This another of your alt account, yea?

...to regain their reputation.

That would imply that they had any sort of reputation to begin with.
Regardless I haven't kept tabs on the shitstorm since they signed a message with the wallet. I'm really disappointed to see people still being unpaid right now. I thought after I raised enough hell and they signed the wallet they'd at least hold up to their end of the bargain.


I also received these two messages from an unknown guy, I guess it's time to tag him as well for being in bed with this ICOforums bs.

Now? we proved that we are paying are we good now? and also about that message i posted in that forum the reason i posted that is because i was so frustrated that we accused we are scam but we aren't that all i'm so sorry that i you take that personally...

And also, i unbanned your account icoforums. you can join in our campaign if you like

Guess what, the drama still continues but from what I read, people haven't get paid yet. At the end of the day, ICOforums will have a lot of catching up to do to be able to regain their reputation.

Who is guilty? No one forced them to create competitions. They had a contest for 10+ messages, after which he said that they will pay only after 100+ messages. But the 10+ contest also stayed. They changed everything on the go. Do you think that everything was done specifically not to pay?
I'm glad for those who were paid, but we were not paid.

How many posts did you made on the forum? since they started paying members which had at least 50 posts during the activity period/campaign. And they're trying to wrap up the due payments before they make another announcement on what will happen to the site.

Its good if they are going to pay or have paid those who deserves payment. They really need to close this one and wrap up everything and hire good moderators and bounty participants so that forum wouldn't just ran by a lot of spammers. Its a lessons learn, maybe the owners has good intentions because he/she has a lot of bankroll to begin with and willing to take that risk so that the forum can generate a lot of traffic. However, inexperienced caught up with him/her and its a complete messed right now. I will also advise if ever his/her reading that he really needs to surround himself of trusted people not just fake friends who's intentions is to scam or steal money.

This is just happened because of the inexperienced team management and the owner,they don't create the competitions with certain rules and deadline so the spammers take this as opportunity and made money but the one who made quality posted got busted when they announced they closed the competitions.

Any idea where this guy really come from? Judging by his alt's username: "pinoyrichkids" he/she might be from the Philippines.
If this is true then this is really shameful to us Filipinos. I hope we could pin point where exactly he/she lives so we could have the authorities arrest him/her.

Please refer to this thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4904659.80


This campaign is closed because there were problems with the administrator.
Now there are payments to participants.
A new campaign will be announced from another account.


Finally the suspicious campaign ended terribly after the bounty manager ran away with all the money but luckily the owner paying the participants from his own pockets again.

But the good news is Yahoo is going to continue their campaign most trusted manager of our forum! Wink
That turned out Huh  Roll Eyes
I wonder if there will be further investigation irl with this scam or that guy will face no consequences.
After checking the linked account to this iamsediii guy, all were already deleted and no trace was left behind besides what seems to be his real name which is cedrick acuario
according to their co-admin on icoforums.

It looks like he is a Filipino and his name was fully exposed already. So let's see if owner will file a criminal complaint in the Philippines against this guy.

You said it a lot better  Wink I was just looking over the site and it seems as though the payments truly did just skip over some people continuously without any sort of explanation and then when I saw that they raised the payment to double for others... even though essentially everyone is new, but it seems like a bit of a slap in the face to raise the payout after paying some people. If it was me I would be losing my mind  Shocked True you knew what you were to be paid when you started posting but you also were unaware that waiting to post for your payment would have doubled your payment. Just seems like a site would be rewarding those who came in and started posting on the site more than those that came in after... Especially doubling the payment is really rough considering half of the stuff on that site makes absolutely no sense  Huh Glad to hear that you were paid for your reviews  Smiley I do also find it strange they call it ICOForums but there is very little about ICOs on the site HAHA

Well yeah, the site is fairly new and tbh I only find less than 5% of the posts there really interesting and none of them are actually about ICOs but on how their website works because user interface wise, I'll give the website 5 star out of 5.

Though I'm looking forward right now on what will happen on the forum especially there's a huge change in how the website will be managed, also adjustment or possibly removal of the reward system - not sure about it yet - . The only thing that I can say for now is that the site is indeed paying however it may take a while due to the massive influx of spammers few days ago since they increased the ethereum reward twice and then suddenly stopped it.

I can't really say that much negative on the website in terms of payment, however the contents of the website is quite bad. I just hope that they will hire some good article writers for the forum temporarily, so the topics will be new as some people simply copy pasted topics here and from different forums.

icoforums.net looks like it is back up and running again but from what I am reading they are not rewarding those that were the first to their site. I have never heard of a site that pays affiliates basically in reverse. I am going through the forum and I literally can understand like 10% of what is written on the site. Looking further into it, the people that you can understand are the ones complaining they are getting skipped over for payment or are being paid less but have been there longer. To me it seems like they are a little lenient with the language barrier issue on the site. I'm glad I passed over that headache. If payments for the first members aren't corrected and quickly, I would stay FAR away from this site because something seems way off.



I can't really disagree or agree on the fact that affiliates are being paid in reverse, since we do not have any referral incentives there.

I could say that I'm one of the pioneer users on the site and one of the first few folks who got paid 0.50 ethereum for the first 100 posts. However the new rates that was imposed like 4 or 5 days ago which is 1 ethereum for 1000 post seems to agitate some of the older members and some of them demanded if we can get the same rate as others.

Realistically speaking yes I wish and hope that I can also get the same rate as the newer members so I also asked them from time to time about it but it can't be helped though if the owner/moderators don't want (I haven't got an straight answer from them yet). As right now their team is increasing like they added few more moderators on the forum and possibly reopening the contest. I just got paid as well for the ICO reviews that I made a week ago which was quite late due to some issues with the management that most of the members knew about.

I just don't really want to complain that much, since when I initially signed up on the forum I know that the rates would be 0.50 eth per 100 posts which I already received. I also received any pending payments that I had for the reviews and promotion from the forum.

I'm not sure though what do you mean by not rewarding those that were first to their site, since we "were" rewarded before, though the rates are "half" than what a new member - like 4 days ago - had earned from the forum. And that's the only difference between the new and old members of the site.

PS: I'm still hoping that most of the older members of the forum, like me, will get some kind of token from the owner.

Here's my ethereum address, the only one who's been sending funds from that one in the past few days is either the icoforums or latoken when I exchanged by avinoc which is also on the list there to ethereum, oh okay so you still edited it. Since I joined this forum that's the only website that I really get paid, not only on time, but unexpectedly high. If you even check my posting history here, most of them are just airdrops and one of those even closed the moment I joined.

Even if you prove that this is your wallet (which it may be) it'd be a worthless fight.
It still doesn't prove that you aren't connected with them.

Why on Earth would you jump in to defend these sketchy people staking your own identity at risk?
The campaign manager who does not even know how to process an application should step forward. Not you. The site owner should step forward and do the escrow or provide a valid justification otherwise. NOT YOU.
They screwed up, you don't have to come & cover for their mistakes because the moment you do that you seem like a person who belongs to their gang.

Did you even think this through before you jumped in to blindly defend your payers? (that is if I take you for your word and trust everything you say)

So that's why I have an access on it?
https://ibb.co/mVOXdK


It may be yours. Go ahead and sign a message. Have the owner sign a message that sent you the funds. And you're good to go. Otherwise it could be just your own wallet from somewhere else where you transferred the money.

But I still strongly believe you are just one of their guys and/or one of them. Your behaviour proves it. You didn't care about anything on this forum and boom you leg dropped right into the ICOforums shit almost as if it was your own project that got hurt.


Also you're not a racist? it looks like you also left a negative trust on someone who called you a racist bitch. So it's not only me.

Dig a little harder. He was just like you. Also from the same country as I am born & brought up in. He took offence when I cited facts, just like you did. We Indians work for $30 and pinoys work for $5, you guys have lowered the overall quality of internet freelance market. You want to stomp your feet and deny this? Go ahead. I've been doing this for 9 years, so I know better. And its no doubt that pinoy shitposters have made this forum a living hell. As if us Indians and those Sub-Saharan-Africans weren't doing that enough already.

This is not me being a racist, this is me pointing out facts. Get a thicker skin if you want to survive in this world son.

THIS is not racism. Racism would be if I considered your worth as a human being below me based on your race. I guess you should not only learn to read but also learn to understand anything and everything basically.


ok also what tag were you referring perhaps? is it the one that also show on your name? the "??" thingy there when I also left a nega trust on you?

Exactly. Enjoy.
