pigeons: no, mircea_popescu coached wences on how to format his claim
jcpham: now that i know discussion came before the rota case
jcpham: it was understanding that the parties didn't try to resolve it amicably - straight to rota, no discussion
pigeons: changing the policy via the rota?
pigeons: it is also in the comments on the general rota post
jcpham: now i know that i need to interrogate everyone
jurov: pigeons, did you ask about logs between mircea and wences? to confirm if mircea forced him to sue ?
dub: I don;t understand how it went from trying to help the guy to rota
jcpham: i'm not discussing this anymore
jcpham: i assumed that he DID NOT
pigeons: but mircea_popescu forced him to sue cause mircea_popescu wanted to promote his rota, and we are his pawns in that
dub: mircea_popescu: I don't understand how the rota could change that, its your policy
mircea_popescu: it failed to work, so i'm going back to what historically worked very well.
pigeons: mircea_popescu could have settled with the guy then there was no breach
mircea_popescu: i was considering changing this policy, via the rota.
mircea_popescu: dub historically if you sent the wrong amt you're fucked.
jcpham: so assume we determine the funds to be his, and we also determine that funds will be returned, there is no breach
mircea_popescu: but i'm not happy with how it works, so i won't do it in the future.
jcpham: also the whole fiduciary duty claim is only relevant given non-refund
mircea_popescu: i was considering doing that, yes.
pigeons: i know it says dont fuck up your deposits, and im careful cause i know mircea_popescu will keep it, but if he's gonna use this to try to push his rota, well fact is it is a breach of fiduciary duty it is totally reasonable to fix this when shown proof
jcpham: straight away once that decision is made, the fess are what decides everything
jcpham: so we think or we know it was his funds and we decide to return the funds
pigeons: jcpham: explain the fees thing
dub: or just the 100btc loss
jcpham: the 20 btc in fees is icing on the cake for someone
dub: so does MP get the neg rating?
jcpham: for all the ORTA fees are just icing on the cake
mircea_popescu: sadly this was proven true, luckily it was proven true on a modest case of little import.
jcpham: in fees for the 130 btc
mircea_popescu: pigeons the reason nobody was using it was (i understand now) the justified fear that people are not equipped to judge.
jcpham: we're talking about .00005 at max bitcoin transaction
pigeons: i wanted to include that i thought the rota was a good idea and didnt expect mircea_popescu would pt barnum it
mircea_popescu: how;s the relation relevant ?
jcpham: to me, the fee is negligible given the deposit amount
jcpham: that's where the uncertainty is
jcpham: the problem is the fees, not the deposit
pigeons: "MPex does disclaim responsibility for customer errors in depositing, but correcting this error is a reasonable part of fiduciary duty."
mircea_popescu: he's absolutely the last guy who sends ANY ammt to mpex and gets crtedited.
jurov: pigeons, it would be good if you included the reasoning in your judgement
mircea_popescu: pigeons i should have credited the dude w/o the hassle ?
pigeons: if you are going to make a point that people can use your rota and it is a good alternative dispute method, forcing the issue on something like this when you just should have credited the dide without all the hassle is shitty
dub: its obviously the guys fault but forcing the rota to deal with it is not good for either rota or mpex imo
jcpham: you have about 11 months to get your shit together
dub: yeah you did tbh
jcpham: so what's the point now? to learn from it
jurov: like, it's totally the mission of a judge to please everyone
pigeons: it was engaged because instead of mircea_popescu just being a normal human, he used a customer service case to not fix the issue so he could force his customer to sue him to get justice, just so he could promote his rota
jcpham: regardless, someone was going to get disappointed
dub: did he then demand rota justice or did mircea_popescu
dub: dude sent wrong amount, it seemed like mircea_popescu was trying to help him sort it out
dub: sorry why was the rota engaged?
mircea_popescu: jcpham cause you get to feel bad about it
jcpham: i mean, I don't like the format myself
jcpham: if i'm not allowed to change anything
jcpham: what good is talking going to do now
mod6: that still will be over in the not too distant future, this is the future
mod6: this is more important then that is
kakobrekla: like the real judged do.
mod6: i really thought the court was a great idea, actually. now i just see that we don't have the foresight/legal wisdom to carry it out
mircea_popescu: pigeons yeah well, you sorta misunderstand what this is all for.
dub: is the fuckup guy
pigeons: yeah i wanted punititve damages against mircea_popescu for wasting our time, using the rota as a promotion, and forcing customers to sue him just to get typical service
dub: oh the plaintiff
mod6: nothing less. this is idiotic.
dub: who initiated the rota action?
mod6: im srsly irk'd by this
mircea_popescu: im not doing anything today.
mircea_popescu: somehow i just never foresaw this one.
mircea_popescu: <mod6> otherwise this just creates way more problems then it solves << i am grasped by sudden terror at the realisation of that, yes.
mod6: we can't have these dunderhead rulings being created when people have no idea what they're even doing
mod6: otherwise this just creates way more problems then it solves
jurov: jcpham, do ask, i'm curious. maybe the overhead includes doing something interesting with the bitches
mircea_popescu: you know, the people who hate financial instutions
jurov: occupy? now it's clear to me.
jurov: like, is it so significant as to justfy keeping whole amount?
mircea_popescu: no cause they are from occupy movement.
jurov: bah, "judges" nobody asked about the "mispaid/rounded orders create significant overhead"?
jcpham: we figured that...
mircea_popescu: ya, but i'll send all complainants to haunt you
jcpham: so he won't even need the rota
jcpham: mircea_popescu will keep the funds in the future
jcpham: jesus told me to apply
mod6: omfg why did you ask to do this?!?!?!
jcpham: fwiw i started to penalize you both equally
mircea_popescu: right. cause the bank won't do the insane sort of shit i do
jurov: not them
jurov: whatever. i was organizing international summercamp, bank asked us the fee to sort out payments with incomplete info
mircea_popescu: it wouldn't be drama if it weren't too late.
jcpham: i suppose it is too late now
mircea_popescu: dawg, independence is this concept whereby people think autonomously
mod6: you guys need to think about what you're doing
jcpham: i think mre preparation or organization is required
mircea_popescu: i guess it at least proves they be independent ninnies.
mircea_popescu: funny how that works 0.0
mircea_popescu: also the first.
mod6: this is the dumbest ruling in virtual case law
mircea_popescu: you just allocated the cost of fucking up to me, and i'm not the one who fucked up.
mircea_popescu: forego payment, what bs is that.
jcpham: didn't seem like an avaialble option though
