You charged people money for something, gave them something else then claimed ignorance and washed your hands... frankly it was your business failure not theirs. Your logic makes about as much sense as asking your supplier for refunds when buyer don't pay. If your supplier was shady, that is your loss to take, not your honest paying customers...
Anyways, I luckily didn't get scammed by you, my concern is that you don't seem like a very good name to be managing the 2 domains of a new coin.
If you care about the litecoin community then you should disassociate your name from it, doesn't instill much trust having a scammer representing us.
I do not manage the Litecoin domain names. They are managed by coblee, and it was his decision to point them at my servers.
terrytibbs has done more for Litecoin than most people. He designed the webpage and set up the wiki and offered to host the webpages. The fact that he has a disagreement with his customers over a previous dealing has no effect on whether or not he can design a great webpage or host the webpage. Given the amount of time he's put into the project, I trust him.
And the worst he can do is basically put a malware binary as the link to the Litecoin client download. If there's any signs of that, I will definitely switch to a different host.
Note: It really shows you his character when terrytibbs continue to post with his original account. Most scammers will just create a new account and continue to scam others.
The website is a template, maybe took 45 min, the wiki is nearly devoid of any information and much of what actually is there, has been copy pasted from the btc wiki. Both sites could be hosted in their current state for under $5 a month. (by the way, at the time of writing this the site is down, maybe he scammed his host too?)
The fact that
he screwed over multiple good people on this forum
is OK because he did you a personal favor?
Your OK with the fact that your users' computers could be compromised and only until it happens will you take action as opposed to taking preventative measures? You realize people have more sensitive info than Litecoins on their computers right? You should respect that more. Not very considerate to undermine the security of the general user base.
I understand
you may have personal trust for him (perhaps unfounded), however
letting him run the main litecoin site and wiki raises concern as to the
level of respect you have for your users' security.
Note: What
really shows you his character when
he keeps peoples money after not delivering the purchased item, and expects others to shoulder his financial follies.
All the above is
my opinion, nothing less, nothing more; this was written with the utmost concern of the
community in mind and no disrespect was intended.
