    My concern isn’t that things will get delayed, it’s that I’ll give them my money and get nothing in return

      That’s. Uh… the entire idea of a kickstarter.

      It may crash and burn. Don’t want that, don’t back anything on kickstarter.

        Honestly that is something I’ve always been ok with on Kickstarter. But it’s 50% scams now of people who never intended to deliver anything in the first place and Kickstarter is taking a lot of steps to protect the scammers in this. The only reason I ever back anything on there anymore is because of campaigns by companies I trust will at least try. I trust Pebble will try, so I personally am very tempted.

        … so I shouldn’t use the CEOs history of bankruptcy and failed a Kickstarter when judging if I think it is going to succeed or not?
