Others can rebuild it aswel. You can join us at http://irc.lc/freenode/bitcoin/ , join #coinchat-exile

Well Coinchat.org is back up now!

So everyone who said TF had run off ;-P

and to all those whose average number of daily social interactions had dropped to almost zero - rejoice!

Dont get too stressed about it. Itll all sort out!

I do know for a fact Chipug is not a TF alias. Neither is Poncho. Not sure where some of this info comes from. I've never had any problems with Trade Fortress. I'm beginning to think that no matter what you do there will always be someone out there calling you a scam or thief. Every single solid person I have seen still has threads out there calling them a hack. it's inevitable. But I do still believe people are innocent until proven guilty. And there are plenty of people who know I am not TF either lol, if you try and give people the benefit of the doubt there is always someone there ready to throw rocks. If no one can be trusted then why are people getting so involved with a community that revolves a lot on trust. Doesn't make much sense.

No , he had said in an email interview about the hack that he has a fund of around 1500 BTC including his cold storage.

Preface:
Let's not quote my post again It's a bit too long to be quoted

Face:
Probably he refers to this --> https://blockchain.info/address/1GLadosEkeAsLReqS3yQ51E1R3wVtbJCDF
But that's just the one wallet in blockchain

Everything can be rebuilt

How do you know he has a personal fund of 1500 BTC? And yes I agree that Tradefortress is really good as he is trying his best to refund.. But everyone just shout at them like TF is the hacker....

He has a personal fund of around 1500 BTC and is using it to refund.
He is AMAZING !

He will probably be tagged as a scammer , and refunding would make no major difference to most of the haters opinions , but still he is refunding most of the people.

It still IS a great community

You know, maybe I'm actually TF too! --> A bit late

But who knows? Maybe I am TF! Maybe TF is actually not a person at all! Maybe it is actually a group consisting of DiamondCardz, chipug, realhacker, and poncho and other 4996 people! Who knows! Maybe you are TF too, lief.green! Who knows! I don't know.
I don't care about the scamming. I don't think TF is a scammer. Not now anyway.
I don't see him as my buddy, and I think he doesn't see me as his buddy either.
I don't see myself as his 'supporter'. I don't trust him as much as I don't trust you.
I lost my money too, though luckily not that big.
I don't deny that he could be a scammer. I don't deny the fact that the hack could be staged.
I don't deny that he could be a con artist.
I don't deny that he could be the one to blame, in fact I think he is the one to blame, but I respect him because he doesn't run.
He tries to refund people's money.
He stays and tries to mend everything. He stays. He tries. He doesn't run. That is something.
And I'm giving him a benefit of doubt as it hasn't been proven that he scammed or got hacked.
It is your right to hate him, I respect your right, and I hope you do the same to me, though who am I kidding

Shorter version:
I just hope that someday coinchat will return. It'd be very nice to still have the reward system, but it's still good without it!

Sure, no problem . Show me and I'll do my best to help you

Well , I hope TradeFortress can prove that he has not done it and has been hacked.
I wonder how I would get my BTC back again

Sure I'm TF, it all makes sense now! 

Indeed, sock puppet.

You know this TF  hunting down the real thieves reminds me of OJ Simpson somehow.

What the heck. I might be TF too.

Ah, coinchat, where art thou now? (Also, Alas my poor Mbtc! Forever lost in the thing they call, "the internet".)

I don't expect TF to be paying any coinchat balances anytime soon, and honestly, I would rather he use my "balance" to pay people off, than keep my poor inputs bitcoins in a barren, frozen land (they're super cold! And also imaginary and unreachable at this point.)

I do hope that the community comes back though - it was pretty pleasant. Even though so much changed since I first introduced myself.

Finally! Someone recognises me as dickless before discovering my gender. \o/  greyhawk, mark the calendar! 

Daft question. If you got a red one, everyone would be wondering why you opted out of the lambo yellow and decided to get a ferrari coloured lambo....

I was just thinking this about you.

Nice attitudes are hard to find in the bitcoin world. It's adding to it's downfall imo.


Harsh, however, what do we all get taught first about bitcoin kiddies?
Be Your own bank. You control your own money, no one else. You are responsible for your own money, no one else.

Bitcoin is not a nice world. Everything good either gets attacked, questioned or actually is a scam. I'm not surprised the amount of decent people that leave it behind them. Example:


He is refunding everyone as he goes. Remember this thread is bitching [in humour] about a chat site being down. He had two other much bigger projects and used the same one email as being contactable for them all. Dude is busy.

So I'll be a victim in his next scam, even though I wasn't ignorant as most others and didn't keep my funds in something that wasn't safe to being with?
5000 aliases?  

It's called "running away with the money' if you are saying that.
I'm not sure if TF is scamming or not, of if this was intended, and really there is no proof for that currently.
But, he WAS in possession of thousands of bitcoins, which now are gone.
