So, we’re comparing Vine and Google Plus, which had millions of users, to MoorUs, an app that never even left beta on iOS???That’s like saying Google Plus was a scam. Or Vine. Sometimes shyt fails.
I talk about it frequently here because of folks like this trying to downplay it. It wasn’t a great idea that just “didn’t work out”. It didn’t “work out” because Tariq wasn’t actually serious about creating a platform for us. He outsourced to some cheap Indians for a reason.
Besides that, there were already several “black” websites around at the time folks were telling him about. He could have easily collaborated with one of them like Moist did with Blaqspot for awhile. We could have invested our dollars with people who already had the infrastructure in place and just made those better. I saw him purposefully ignore those comments and continue to push MoorUs and ultimately Tariq Spot (wonder where he got that from?).
I put up $100 and never even got the damn shirt that was promised from the crowdfunding. And this wasn’t a scam? 80k+ From the “poorest” community down the hole with what to show for it?
