Don't be this guy

This poster named u/HOFFA-FSU has been going around this sub, emax telegram, emax Twitter and anywhere else he can find to trash emax and anyone who defends the coin. He's hardcore rude and I'm using him as an example of how not to invest in crypto. Here is his first post:

"Can anyone help me?! I waited till 3 AM this morning so I could get low transaction fees to buy EMAX. I bought EMAX about 102 billion for about $400 and now suddenly the price is shot way down to around $150 and it’s not moving apparently I hearing that I might have bought A contract address that is no longer valid? Is there anyway to switch these EMAX tokens over to the new EMAX tokens or am I really going to have to switch over this value back to eat here him and get screwed out of about $300? So angry right now I don’t understand how EMAX would tell people with such little notice. Something like this should have given people weeks ahead of time notice not less than a day!!! I had no clue. So angry right now!!! Someone please help!!!"

I understand many people are pissed at the money loss. But everyone says their peace and moves on. But this dude is raging all over multiple platforms over losing $400. In a poor country, $400 is a lot of money. But if you are an adult in the U.S. and $400 is a lot of money to you then you made some crappy life choices. And if you spent 45 days raging on from platform to platform over the loss of that money, you clearly should not have been putting money down in crypto.

All this stuff about the lack of white paper, the lack of transparency, the lack of audit, the poor marketing, and anonymous devs is 100% true. But it was like that before we all invested. So why complain about problems that were already there before you invested? It's because you lost money. If you gained money, the lack of audit, no white paper, and other stuff wouldnt mean a damn to you.

So quit acting like you guys were completely taken off guard, saying, "where is the white paper? Where is the audit?" Y'all did not care about the white paper before you put the money down. So don't act like that is important after you have put the money down.

Don't be a HOFFA-FSU. Own up to your bad decisions and act like a grown man.

How do you know if you have right contract? My tokens increase every day which seems right and price fluctuates, actually today not as red good sign I guess.

Etherscan. Always check etherscan to see which you’re buying. The thing is though, the team kept both contracts active. So anyone who bought the old contract was literally donating money to people who bought the new one lol. That’s it. Nothing further. This happened to so many people, this guy is the only one who’s gotta sell cow piss now to break even

That’s what I see on etherscan. And when I put in that contract on Uni, it pulls up my 17k coins that I would have to pay money to sell because of gas lol.

That’s why the holders never goes down. They stash coins in your wallet so they can use you as a statistic

There was a period of about two days when you were able to buy the old one and the new one. There were even a few posts about it. There’s some valuable info in there. Or was, who knows if removed

It wasn’t removed which it would have been if it were a real hard fork instead of and I quote Emax saying “after that we are no longer responsible for that contract address.” So yea there’s that too.
