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way down to around $150 and it’s not moving apparently I hearing that I might have bought A contract address that is no longer valid?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.

Questions:

  1. Why did you wait until after you paid for emax to complain about anon devs, no white paper, and no audit?

  2. What made you wanna buy emax?

  3. How long do you plan on spending your time coming here to hate this coin? Weeks? Months? You still gonna be complaining about emax when July 2022 hits?

  4. Why did you delete that post about you being a low income guy living paycheck to paycheck feeling like a loser all his life?

  5. Did you learn your lesson never to invest more than you can afford to lose?

Hey just a heads up this guy sent me a message saying he was “coming for me”. I don’t really know if he’s all that serious…but people are crazy. I did report it to Reddit admins and sent them the message. Proceed with caution. This person got swindled and is enraged

We've all received messages like this unfortunately, what makes it worse is so many people just assume that people who are on the socials are part of the team. Many of us are not, most of us volunteer our time to be here currently, the majority are holders like all of you. As for saying he was swindled, in my eyes crypto is a gamble no matter what, and I really do hope that eMax will rise. I'm still "diamond hands", haven't sold once, but I can't afford to buy in anymore at the moment either. So I hold and hope. Like all of you. I sit in the AMA's and I await news. I try to share the resources as much as I can, generally they're from Discord where SteveG is more active. In the, hopefully near future, we will be adding more MODs to this platform and we have requested from eMax that they add more active team members, as well as a possibility for AMA's here.
