The funny thing is, whichever BFL employee it is, they are too big of a pussy to reveal who they really are.

Oh I am running low on popcorn.

Can't wait to see how Josh plans to square that 1000BTC bet with Runeks.  Tongue

So wha size tin foil hat you like to wear 7 1/2? 7 1/4 ? You like a flat brim or curved?

I have hurt no one.  If you've been hurt by bitcoin, in whatever fashion, you seriously need to re-examine your life and reassess your priorities.  Putting yourself in a position where you can be hurt by an experimental currency and bleeding edge technology is not just stupid, it's completely irresponsible and you shouldn't be allowed near a computer, much less money.  On top of that, the timeline for the ASICs was set and announced long, long before I came on board.  As I've said, again in countless places, going forward if I have any say in the situation, BFL will not be announcing timelines beyond "When it's ready."

This is a lie.  Surely as Bitcoin is the cause of you having customers and clientele, can the act of not holding up to your promises cause the same amount of loss in others.  If I had invested with bitcoin instead of your machines to mine them (2x singles), I could have potentially made $80,000.  I would have been married by now.  :|

Do you think your machines will make me that money?  Until they do I will always be remembering how you "bait and switched" me.
That has nothing to do with Josh and everything to do with your own poor investment decision.  If Bitcoin was destined to go up by enough to make you $80,000, then you should have definitely bought/kept those Bitcoins!  Why on earth would you ever have sold your Bitcoins if you knew they were going to go up to $140 apiece??  Seems like a REALLY bad decision by jordaninthesky!

And better yet, if you knew that Bitcoins were going to go up from $5 to $140, why did you not take out a credit line or something?  You could have turned $2,800 into $80,000 easily!  And boom, there's your wedding!  What's a few dollars a month in credit card payments when you are getting 80 grand just 10 months down the line?

Not trolling but gotta ask. When they failed to deliver the first time, you could have asked for a refund, put all that into BT which was still like 11 bucks and made all this awesome profit. See how hindsight works in other ways? Life lesson dont take money you cant afford to lose (needed for a weddding) and put it into RISKY propositions.

The hindsight was not about the price of Bitcoin. Everyone who bought BFL was betting on the price of Bitcoin going up.
The hindsight was about BFL lying to him over and over about their prospects for shipping. He is only recently able to discern these misrepresentations, and even now BFL is saying that they will ship him his product soon.

Oh and Minternj is probably Inaba. A recently registered account with practically every one of its posts in BFL threads, all of them supporting BFL, and calling everyone trolls and "its the same group of trolls". When he gets pissed off, you see the similarity.

I'm not talking about mining hardware discussion.  Google "Bitcoin mining" ... Bitcointalk is at the bottom of the third page.  Which is also known as "Might as well not be listed" page.  

If someone does manage to find their way here, they quickly leave due to all the drama and trolls.  Most people who still post here are so saturated with this community they don't realize how tiny and insulated it is. Bitcointalk posters encompass less than 10% of the current mining population, on a per person basis.  Why do you think all the hardware vendors basically stay the hell away from here?  Avalon makes a post and then leaves for weeks at a time.  bASIC finally gave up and made their own forums before their implosion. Scams galore in the hardware section.  The lack of any meaningful moderation pretty much chases everyone away and no serious business would participate in Bitcointalk.  I do it on my own time and at my own whim.  I don't speak officially for BFL here and BFL has no desire to participate in the Custom Hardware section unless it's properly moderated and cleaned up, which seems unlikely to happen.

Seriously, it's the same people posting over and over for the vast majority of the posts. Those people already have their camps and no one is going to change their minds, so who cares?  There's so much misinformation and BS posted here, it's impossible to find the signal in all the noise, so it's pointless to try to conduct business here.

If you open an icognito window in chrome and Google "bitcoin mining forum" bitcointalk.org is the number 1 listing.
I guess Google thinks this is the place where bitcoin mining is discussed. Wink

Does that picture show 70 hardware errors in 1hr5min? (roughly 1 per minute)

Makes me wonder how many good chips they got from the 6 wafers?

But thinking about it though, it makes sense to put the crap ones in the lowest model.

For a $149 investment it'll repay itself and make $1300 on top in one month of mining.

Think again. You paid about 23 BTC 10 months ago. You'll make .3 btc/day. Even if the difficulty doesn't skyrocket (which it will), you need more than 2 months to just break even. You aren't making any profit for a long time.

Scared is right to be happy because he invested 149$ in the bitcoin currency (through the jalapeno)
and his return will be 149+ $ (actually thousands of them).

Scared will be right to be happy that he invested in the bitcoin currency through the jalapeno
instead of directly buying bitcoins when his jalapeno will mine for him more than 23 BTC.

Will it?

23 BTC is now worth....3266.03226 USD (or about 22 jalepenos)

So...how about someone do some math on the difficulty going up with a constant period of adjustment. What will it take to get back the 23BTC?

Why the hell are trolls always talking about the bitcoin value going up against buying anything with bitcoin?? (for now the jally)

If noone would spend their bitcoins could it be actually used as a currency? I thought bitcoin was made to skip banks while making transactions online, to get rid of a central authority, governmental control. Imagine if everyone was sitting on their BTC's and no one making a transaction in the hope of the value going up.. Would bitcoin ever reach their goal then (replacing / taking out banks)Huh

I mean if you buy a bread today for $1 and bread price drops to $0.5 tomorrow do you regret buying it yesterday (since you could have bought 2 with the $1 you spent yesterday)?? And you stop buying any food until you die just because of a hope that the price will go down even more?

I really don't get your point.. BFL told you their prices in USD, the BTC amount paid was always calculated to their USD prices.

I believe this is relevant to this thread given supposedly a BFL Jalapeno was delivered to the OP. Or another person who received it. But do we really need to run a power test?

Below is a quote from BFLJOSH (i.e. IN-A-BRA).




Q. Are you going to become just another mouthpiece for the BFL party line?
A. First of all, there is no “party line” coming out of BFL.  They have been up front and honest with their dealings in the community from day one. There are a number of people on the forums that feel that BFL has been dishonest and some of those feelings are justified if viewed through the lens of “Every business should be perfect, always.”  However, both Sonny and the engineers, contrary to some statements you may have seen from others on the forum, have been honest in their assessments of capabilities and timelines.  They have been mistaken, yes, but they have not been willfully or intentionally dishonest. Some can say they should have known better, and whether or not that is true is, at this point, academic.  I am looking at the future, not the past, and I will be doing my level best to provide accurate information from day one.  If there is some information that I believe to be inaccurate, a lie, or just plain wrong, I will not pass it off as fact.  I will not tow any “party line.”  I will give you the honest facts as I know them. There may be times that there are trade secrets that I cannot reveal, but I do not believe this constitutes falsehood or anything nefarious, as there are times where revealing certain bits of information would put BFL at a competitive disadvantage.  That will harm not only BFL, but also its current and future customers.  If there are still people that, going forward, feel that this is somehow dishonest, then I apologize in advance and I also give advance notice that there will, in fact, be times where 100% of information cannot be disclosed, either immediately or possibly ever.



The bolded section sounds ALL TOO FAMILIAR on BFL's reputation even to this day. Anyone got any quotes to add to these initial claims of Josh?
