I would like to add to this topic.
Before the first launch i contacted the ruby dev (kass) to apply for a bounty. I Designed some graphics and gave him different files/resolutions on request. All seemed good and he told me I would get a bounty. I am the creater of design #5 on the frontpage. Kass said he was so happy that i contacted him and he said maybe I could do some other stuff for him in the future. All good, the launch failed, but i still had faith in them. I stood up for them when everyone was calling rubycoin a scam and shitting on the coin. I had faith for the relaunch next week.
Next week, relaunch. Coin did NOT have wallet at launch. I found this really weird for such a highly anticipated launch. Also the fact that they still had to 'fix some small things' at the last minute, delaying the launch for almost an hour and then not even coming out with a wallet, really dissapointed me. Still, i started mining and hoped everything would turn out fine. At that time, I contacted kass a couple of times for the bounty, but he did not reply. I didn't really care because i thought he was busy enough with the release anyway.
Later, he replied me and said he would give out the bounties when he would wake up the next day. 2 days later, i still didn't receive anything so i asked again in the irc channel. At that time, kass said they hired something who was in charge of the bounties, and that I should speak to him (mogonzo). I confronted him with the fact that he said that he would send the bounties himself, after he woke up after launch.
At that time, things got out of hand. He suddenly started to get VERY angry at me for no particular reason. Telling me to shut the fuck up and stop fucking talking to him. I asked him what he was doing, because when his coin was nothing, he talked COMPLETELY different and telling me how glad he was that i contacted him etc. Suddenly he became a completely different person. I had no idea if i was talking to the wrong guy. This went on for a while and I just told him I would talk to mogonzo. So, i sent mogonzo a pm on the forum and on the IRC channel. I never got any reply. Note that i was one of the first people on reddit that replied to the bounty thread.
Now the reason I am telling this all here, is because I want the people here to know with what kind of idiots/kids we are dealing with here. I'm guessing they are some 16 year old kids who try to make some quick bucks off of everyone here. The fact that they did not even have a wallet with launch already gave me suspicions, but the bounty handling and especially, the attitude the coin dev game me in front of an IRC chatroom with over 150 people, was simple shocking.
To end this, and to use the devs words against him: rubycoin can fuck off and can stick that bounty into their butthole.
Peace.
He got all pissy at me as i mentioned 'x' amount of pages back, for no good reason. The guy is a moron and it's hilarious how badly this coin has sunk since then. Gives me a warm, fuzzy feeling. In a way i feel bad for mongonzo or whatever his name is, accepting his payment in Ruby won't net him much now. Then again, he is blindly backing the wrong person, so it's also his fault.
