The Vladimir over here was "Vlad1m1r" and I must admit he made some pretty newb mistakes. Either he got busted or he turned scammer, one of those. In any case I don't think there's any evidence their "Vladimir" is the same person.If it is, then Atlantis are sort of seriously fucked lol. This was a guy who did CIM as a BTC exchanger for SR, and didn't wear gloves. He talked a good game, but didn't really do his research or have an actual, you know, plan. If this is the same Vlad, that won't have changed.As for Limetless, does he know you're saying he's jumped ship? I've PMed him so we'll see what he has to say about that.I must admit though, some things about Atlantis are seriously weird.Take this for example, it's their forum registration bullshit you have to sign before joining up:QuoteRegistration AgreementYou agree, through your use of this forum, that you will not post any material which is false, defamatory, inaccurate, abusive, vulgar, hateful, harassing, obscene, profane, sexually oriented, threatening, invasive of a person's privacy, adult material, or otherwise in violation of any International or United States Federal law.

But that does not include DOS on your competitors. The admins of Atlantis should make a statement about whether they are involved in that or not instead of sitting there preening themselves with their sockpuppets and astroturfed marketplace vendors. They should do so out of their own interest, otherwise this DOS could be a DEA ploy to get the two marketplaces to clash and begin a hackerwar for no reason.SR and BlackMarketReloaded have been competing for ages, backopy and DPR don't have issues with each other, just mutual respect, so competition isn't the issue. Being a bunch of jerks, is. Atlantis certainly have not endeared themselves to me and I strongly get the sour grapes vibe after visiting their forum recently. That is what I don't understand, because there's infinitely more marketplace to go around by breaking into the traditional black market in RL, get those people on board. I can't understand why they even think SR is the main competition. They carp about how they are only in it for the money, but I'm not seeing them do anything other than attempt to poach SR customers, which is lame. Everybody should be working on cracking open the IOP market, the bitcoin OTC market, and the multi-billion dollar trade known as the RL black market.
