You have been awarded with the "Resident benchmarker" tag and ofcourse you were posting the facts about performance of Calins service no doubt but you also ignored the fact he stole 20k. Reading your post it almost felt like you were pushing more sales to calin after he lost his provider tag.
If you had any respect for you tag you would have definately mentioned that calin business ways are questionable and at the moment you wouldn't recommend him till he doesn't clear his name.
You dont need to please me you and your tag have already lost credibility in my mind.
Are you blind to the way Calin is behaving this ASN change cause downtime a mature host would be like "We apologize for the inconvenience this change took more downtime than we expected".
In the 20k scam thread he was behaving like he is right.
He doesn't even now how to behave with customers it feels more like he is doing us a favour by providing his garbage services.
I would definitely say you should make more mature use of you benchmarker tag and push sales to more legit hosts than sponsoring SCAM hosts and making innocent users who trust you loose money to calin.
benchmarking is about performance numbers not subjective feelings about a hosts ethics
While I agree with being subjective. He should have omitted hosts with questionable ethics (or those who lost provider tags). This subjectivity + no remarks regarding hosts ethics or any discouragement for using them because of it in the reviews means it's kind of a free marketing for these hosts.
The benchmark reviews also help the hosts know what they can/should work on to improve their services even more. Under normal circumstances it's good, but I guess not all people would wish the best to some hosts
Before being “residential”, benchmarker was “king of bechmarks”. But got dethroned due to incompetency. So take his “banchmarks” with huge sodium grain.
You missed (*). That's for:
You missed the cynical undertone ;-)
@default Yes, he broke rules. He lost his tag.
But, you claimed corruption. Corruption isn’t the same thing as you not getting what you want. Corruption is when someone’s profiting off of that.
Note that he lost his tag.
So how could it possibly be corruption?
Some people > @aneesh120 said:
Are you related to gossd? Any affiliation?.
Because your user name points to that you are Indian and gossd was Indian too.
Not necessarily concluding anything but since you've such a strong opinion, are you any stakeholder of gossd?
Your challenge is not accepted because I don't want to get banned. If you can't take a hint... oh well.
I am indian but not affiliated with gossd in anyway.
I am just fighting for justice.
GOSSD is clean?
This $20k from a 3rd party from whom they gave away to Calin, will it be shown in their balance sheet?
Well clean providers have checks to ensure they dont get such customers
Calins entire business model is "do whatever you want break the law dedicated servers"
So the clean/unclean argument doesn't apply here.
For example hostslick rejected the order of gossd calin should have rejected it if he had some sense!
Maybe calin sensed this was unclean money and he could easily get away with it!
Since you mentioned "justice", here it goes.
Most people here don't care about gossd losing money because it was uncleaned.
For a matter of fact, you should have had blasted gossd since in the context of the Indian economy, he tried to evade tax including transferring unclean money where he can't even show the source. This impacts the whole Indian society including its economy. This transaction itself is violation of AML.
Since you want justice, will you report these series of transactions? Because whatever messages Calin showed, that's enough evidence to conclude that, that $20k isn't clean.
So.... Don't give this "justice" angle here.
And honestly, I have no sympathy if someone loses unclean money. Those were not theirs to begin with so shouldn't cry when they lose it.
Except that part of your argument is completely made up. I don't know anything about tax evasion, so I'm not commenting on that part. However, claiming it's "unclean money" is clearly a lie for the sake of the argument.
He was paid by his client in crypto as well, and if you followed the discussion, you'd also know that his clients' transaction was done via Binance, not some anonymous or suspicious source.
So what you did in the quoted comment above is nothing but a lie. You don't know if the money is unclean or not. All you know is that Gossd couldn't send Calin a bank statement because the payment was made in crypto, and the bank wasn't even involved. It's almost impressive that we have to go through all of this again because someone (looking at you) decided to lie in defense of Calin.
You have no sympathy when someone looses unclean money !
But you have sympathy for an unclean provider hosting unclean clients accepting unclean money everyday in the form of crypto and breaking the law everyday !
Hypocrisy at its finest i must say !
everyone is an international crimes expert on LET
@itachikonoha made that up.
He can't know whether the money was unclean or not. All he knows is that Gossd can't send a bank statement to Calin because the transaction wasn't made through a bank, but via crypto, and he received that payment in crypto from his client as well.
Calin wouldn't be able to receive that amount in the first place.
Under PMLA 2002 India, whenever you can't show the source of the money, it is "unclean". It's your responsibility to prove otherwise.
you guys the moral police now?
And? How is that even an argument? India has nothing to do with this specific case so far, and you're making an argument just for the sake of it.
What you're doing here is basically blaming Gossd for receiving payment in crypto from his supposedly Turkish client. Oh man, you're trying too hard...
GOSSD is an Indian company who is trading with Calin on behalf of his customer.
Why do you think GOSSD had to written it off as "loss" in their balance sheet?
Irrelevant. You're making an argument out of nothing just for the sake of it.
Lol. How it is irrelevant?
@Mumbly i guess itachi is a stakeholder in iSCAMart and he is feeling the pain of calin loosing his provider tag.
It's irrelevant because what you're doing is basically defending a person who screwed someone over for 20k, with zero empathy for the victim, using random arguments that aren't even directly related to the case.
Gossd may or may not pay taxes in his own country, but how is that relevant to someone keeping his money without providing any service? You're really being a dick.
@Mumbly - there is no point is derailing this thread with a discussion which was closed. Some people won't understand how the world works; some would rather live in bubbles with preconceived assumptions for the sake of their undisturbed ideology. Let them live in peace and harmony; they are happy that way. Meanwhile this case was closed by LET moderation anyway and provider tag was removed as a solution.
The provider tag will be restored (as it happened in the past), but it is better to leave such discussions be reignited when this will happen, for LET's growing rating and its precious bilohbucks at that time.
Let's leave everyone in peace. We need peace nowadays more than ever; meanwhile everybody is unique and should be able to think whatever they wish or desire.
State where I wrote I have zero empathy for victim?
You are writing posts with very ill intention my friend. That's not supposed to be done when you are supposedly arguing for the "right" party.
