Hello Og, nonna. Just got some news to share of my own: received my coin. Actually came last week but had to retrieve it and pay a customs/tax fee (which came up to about a third of the coin's cost grumble). Very good weight, neat workmanship, it'll make a nice gift the next person I introduce Bitcoin to.
Thank you! I'm glad you like it!
Also just realised my account was terminated (forgot that I needed seats before it expires) - should I make a new one now or just get in touch directly with nonna?
That is up to you. Easiest/fastest thing to do would be to make a new account. If you let nonnakip know your details in PM, he can link the coin to your account which may (nonnakip?) remove the initial 1 seat requirement before purchasing more online seats.
P.S. Am not oblivious to all the unhappy discussions going on in this thread. Can't say much about it as I won't have the benefit of good context, but like my participation on this forum and other small groups, I think every interaction with a different community gives a unique learning perspective. It's natural that a lot of start ups and ventures will disappoint some, which is why my expectation is little more than to learn.
Reputational preservation is the enemy of innovation. I suspect that nonnakip and I will continue doing the best we can. If people are buying NastyFans as an investment vehicle (not proper usage) they should: understand how public auctions work, know what rights they have as a seat owner, take personal accountability for their decisions, be aware of what their exposure is, and be diversified against any risks. If people are joining NastyFans to have fun, learn, and help support a community organization to see how far we can take this experiment, I think they will end up glad to be in the club.
