Hi All.. I have read a bit in the main forums lately, but have not felt like I could participate because, well, everyone I agree with has been banned!
I am a sane, rational person and the only way I received money from pips is that I exchanged people who wanted to loan. I never did it through picpay, except the 10% picrealty deposit that is sitting somewhere in cyber-picpay-space.
I never chased to recruit, most of the people I helped were other people's friends. The one's I exchanged, I am helping as best I can to make it back in different ways. (And I and lots of folks in my area feel obligated to pay people back even though everyone is an adult and should have known what they were doing.)
But mainly, I worked for a picpay merchant and one of his clients was another merchant who wrote the letter to BoN. I don't think he has anything to do with talkgold. (pretty sure he doesn't)
So I hear from my 'boss' and another former picpay merchant who is helping this group. It pains me that everyone is so hard on these guys. They did everything they could to offer help to BM so the members (all of US) could get paid.
They started their picpay businesses to HELP other pipsters.. not hurt them.
They were not out to maliciously shut it down. It was only after BM refused help (help with DEEEP pockets I might add) and showed no concern for members that they went to BoN.
Some of the posts I have seen that have been banned were reports with the same information I have received from people directly communicating with the investigation. I can only wonder why people with the truth would be banned. They are certainly no more harmful than those that blahblah blah about trolls, TG, each other and supporting BM as if he were the messiah.
But, like you, we will not know the whole truth until it comes out from official sources. I certainly do not consider BM an official source at this point. Perhaps I should say, an 'objective source'.
IF he proves to be guilty, he would be one of the most seriously delusional people I have heard of in our generation.
IF BM is jailed and/or hit with heavy fines, I have no doubt there are those of you who will still not believe he would have been guilty.
In any event, for me it was about earning some passive income.. that's all. I don't need a religion. Luckily, I did diversify and I am not as hard hit as most I know.. who are not only hard hit financially but psychologically as well since their major source of financial hope has evaporated.
Admin, thanks for the space to express.
