Its ok. You have to take it like this: There has been so many IPO scams lately that it is understandable that everyone is wary. I for one was scammed by IPO and truly believed in the idea (Bitland). So prove people wrong. Go in with an assumption that everyone believes you are a scammer. Prove them wrong with whitepaper, source code, etc. Convert them into a believer. I, for one, am on the fence right now so I am waiting.
northranger, you never donated to Bitland how dare you accuse bitland to be a scam? Yes there are issues with funding and getting the project full steam but they will be sorted out in due time. donation refunds are offered to anyone who wants out, even though it is a loss. Check the original thread not one complaint of scam. It's very frustrating to deal with accusations especially when its from people who didn't even donate.
