There is no reason BFL should get a scammer tag - It isn't their fault that people fell for a product that would clearly never be made.

i hope this is sarcasm....

looks like sarcasm....

but its hard to tell with all the idiots.

Good test If you detect sarcasm then your not one of those idiots.

As opposed to the idiots for whom http://youryoure.com/ is too hard to follow..

You missed a dot... or maybe added one.

One or three. Never two or four.

(Five is right out.)

They scammed us into investing in thier company saying that thier product was in the "final stage of development, Shipping by the end of XYZ MONTH HERE, Preorder NOW!"

Thier product is not a scam.
Thier business is CROOKED AS HELL, and they scammed us into buying all thier hardware for them, All that equipment, the waffers, the testing, manhours, we payed for it all as "preorder customers"

Where in real life, when you pay for someones tools, equipment, matierals, manhours of labour, and they construct something from all those things that you purchased for them, Your considered a fucking investor
The fucking thing would not have been constructed without your money

Complaining about BFL can result in forced cancellations of your pre-orders.

Be careful folks.

And they pull all this Bullshit knowing that if they play with bitcoins, The police wont do anything.
The fucker seemingly leading the operation was Convited of Mail FRAUD
A convicted fraudster!, he Clearly Knows what he's doing when it comes down to how to bend the rules and duck under the laws

Where is the police?!, Nobody is calling them, and BFL's entire operation hinges on weather or not they are scammers. Who decides when this "business" has gone too far? this is some serious Bullshit.

Yes, They do have the right to refuse service to customers, A business has that right.
But you dont get to fucking cancel orders that are more than half a year old just because you dont like what the persons freedom of speech sounds like


People are too stupid to understand such lucid logic. Everything you said I agree 100% and the ones that deny your freedom of speech or disagree with anything you have said here either have something to lose or admit they're backing the wrong side.

I have been on both sides and as the proverbial saying goes, I have given them enough rope to hang them selves. I believe that it will require substantially a great deal more (rope) for everyone to see the truth. It will be apparent in due time. Trust me.

To be devils advocate if BFL started out as a legit way and were to use the pre-order money as a percentage of the RnD and things went wrong and now their in a desperate catch up game, I can see that happening. Then again it's not like it has not happened before with his other ventures in other businesses including the FPGA bull of last time around. It's like there are no more excuses for this company. However there are plenty being made up from their customers that have everything to lose.

These customers of BFL are still in the denial stage of an abusive relationship. However they will never understand the scam to its full diabolic state as most of them are not sociopaths and registering those thoughts of actually taking advantage large groups of people is not within their abilities.

Like a child would never suspect wrong doing from a person like Santa Claus. When they catch on they will take this experience with them for life.

They should receive a scammer tag for this reason alone.

Now it is more than obvious that BFL is a scam. I see a lot of red faces among the mods on this forum. They should publicly apologize to me!

How exactly bitching on BFL, Tom and others, who failed to deliver on time or didn't delivered at all, but didn't ran away with money, helps?

Shows the community keeps its own house in order, has a collective brain, isn't fooled en masse by scammers, etc.

Sweeping bad news under the carpet and expecting it to stay there? One word for that in the online Age: impossible.


PS. Question is not 'should BFL get a scammer tag', it's 'why the hell did BFL not get a scammer tag six months ago?'

Money up front and a year overdue: the scam has happened already.

Still, let's have more BFL adverts!

There is no reason BFL should get a scammer tag - It isn't their fault that people fell for a product that was clearly advertised and never be made public that it was going to be late and with more money and more power consumption.

I have the best woman for Josh found at Gordon Ramsays kitchen nightmare this week.
She has the same crazy behavior like Josh, if somebody critisize her. Grin

Examples:
If you don´t like the meals she is cooking, your taste is wrong.
Don´t say anything, if you have to wait 1.5h for your pizza in a nearly empty restaurant, or you have to pay and go.

Really crazy stuff, watch yourself:

None of those specifically quote him as saying anything, so it's hard to know what his phrasing is.
I haven't seen all of the information available on this.  I'm going on what I've read here, and a couple other threads.
Thanks for the response Frizz23!  I am interested in this as I would love to have some of their machines, but they do seem to be acting strangely.
MooC says that he was going to ship in Nov, but the article states he wouldn't even get the chips until late Nov.  I'm not sure how big of an operation they have, but I could see it taking a few months to turn those into however many thousands of machines.  As to why they didn't start sending them as they were built, I haven't seen a good answer to that.
