I have personally intarected with this user and must agree his ideas and ways of thinking are pretty much irrational, though I am not sure yet whether we are dealing with an over-exaggeraged troll or a very mentally sick individual, he is probably the former but I cannot really tell.
He has his own thread in the Reputation section where he alledges I attack him because I am evil and a Nazi (or something among those lines).
Either way, I do not believe someone is supposed to be banned from this forum based only on the things they write, it would take us to be sure he is actually trolling or he personally threating with physical violence against a forum member for the Administration to have a valid reason to issue a permanent ban, in my opinion. In the mean time, I guess it will be enough for him to stop posting here as often as usual if enough people ignore him.
In the case we are dealing with a mentally ill person, it baffles me he is yet to be given the mental attention he needs, perhaps it would have something to do with the fact he seems to be from the USA?
Now wait I minute. When I got sick in 1982 I had more than 20 years of treatment which amazingly worked. Took antipsychotic meds from 1982 to 2006. Went to various shrinks and psychologists for 40
years. My last psychologist retired in 2022. I went to her for 29 years.
I say this cause I am USA based. You can get the care if you want to. But from the sick people I have seen at least 60% just try to gaslight everyone and live on the river ( denial is the river).
BTW I figure 20% of the USA people need real help so they can get off that barge floating on that river.
But only 2 or 3 % actually try like I did.
I see. It is just that one of the stereotypes or ideas many foreigners around the planet have about the United States is that people many times cannot afford to get healthcare of any kind. I have personally talked to a friend of mine from Oklahoma who once suffered a mental breakdown and was isolated in a "crisis center" with other people and he was kind of forced to interact with others until he was deemed to be stable enough to be released. Basically, he was planning to take his own life.
I have also read medicine and drugs in your country cannot be afforded by many people and the cost of them are out of proportion in comparison to other countries which are supposed to be as well within the first world category. So I assumed that perhaps our friend Dr Joseph was someone who is not able to afford some psychological evaluations and drugs, so comes here to cope with whatever he must be feeling. If that is the case, I pity him rather to feel anger and annoyance because of his behavior here in the forum.
Anyways, we may be getting a lil bit out of the topic of this thread. I am personally glad you have managed to improve your health through those long years, mental health is not supposed ignored, being healthy in that sense is priceless.
It is rude to talk about someone's mental health like this in public. You are doing a very great disservice. Please stop it now.
People here are questioning my education because they are all a bunch of stupid morons. I am the only one who has been promoting a strategy that may prevent the next pandemic, but people here hate me for doing this, so I will not promote such a lifesaving strategy any more.
Here are a few specific examples:
That just convinces me that people like you deserve to @#$%ing die in the next pandemic.
And when people f@#$ing die from the next pandemic, they will f@#$ing deserve it. They will all go to HELL when they die. And they will f@#$ing deserve that too.
[cut]
Until universities apologize, they deserve the violence because they are evil. Nobody should shed any tears for the f***ers who were shot and killed at Michigan State University until universities acknowledge that promoting violence against me is very bad. Because those tears are extremely offensive. There should not be a single flower at their funerals because universities promote violence and are incredibly evil.
That's why he got a temporary ban for those remarks. If you still come across such statements in the same spirit from this user, you can send reports. At least in the sections where I am a moderator.
I have been trying to prevent the next pandemic with a specific safety protocol, and you have all mocked me for this, so I cannot do this any more. Banning the one person for trying to prevent a pandemic and convincing him that humans are not worth saving is NOT the way to go because that may result in another pandemic.
If anything, the trolls here who say that I do not really have a Ph.D. should be banned from this site because they are the worst people imaginable.
Please check this post:
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.63373409You refused to verify your identity by simply changing the TikTok comment? You are asking for money in advance before you verify your identity? You are a scammer.
Well, on that note after reading your nonsensical excuse to not verify your real identity, it is clear you are not whom you claim to be and you are simply tainting the name of someone you have a grudge against. You went through all this charade just for the sake of taking every opportunity in every post you made, just to ensure you posted his name thus tried to associate him with the utter nonsense you continue to post.
I have added you to my ignore list and have also left appropriate negative trust for impersonating someone from the Department of Mathematics & Statistics from a University.
Are you going to add a video to the profile here:
https://www.tiktok.com/@jvannameAre you going to change the TikTok profile from: "
Ph.D. in Math. All algorithms are my own." to "The people on this site promote violence against me"
As
mentioned before, the smart money is on you coming up with a multitude of pathetic excuses why will be unable modify the text of
your own TikTok account but we are all ears. Well?

-Joseph Van Name Ph.D.
================================================
This "
jvanname" account pretends to be the real Joseph Van Name Ph.D. from the University of Florida. He is
asking for money before he is willing to verify his identity.
Please ban this account either for soliciting for money under the guise of hijacking the name of a reputable member of society (the real Joseph Van Name Ph.D. from the University of Florida) or for flooding the Reputation board with utter nonsense that should not be allowed to remain.
We are after all hoping to have a forum free from spam.
I am not going to jump through hoops for you for free. Do not demand for me to post something on TikTok. Please. That is incredibly disrespectful and f@#$ing evil. You are a disgrace. You are garbage.
I second the motion. Having a retard like that who keeps opening stupid threads while boasting about his supposed superiority because of his supposed PhD does not bring anything good to the forum.
I have a Ph.D. in Mathematics. I am therefore smarter than you.
Initially, I felt @JG was asking for a ban for @jvanname simply because he was just obnoxious and he seemed to treat everyone here as serfs beneath him but after going through what was said I feel he deserves to be banned. Who would ask for a fee to reveal their identity these days though? I guess the PhD degree is really getting into him or probably some screws are getting loose for him to feel the world revolves around his little bald head( assuming he's bald
)!
Just to be sure, if he gets banned, what's the assurance that he won't create another account and continue what he's doing here? Asides from him acting like the universe stole his birthright, I've really not had any other issues with him. For me, he's just like a grumpy entertainer who's actually good at what he does and I quite agree with @Vod's suggestion to handle the matter.
I am not bald but I do shave my head. But I am not going to jump through hoops to prove myself to anyone here unless you f@#$ing pay me because I do not do things for free for any of you because you are all a bunch of chlurmcklets.

As Vod has stated, if you suspect someone is impersonating a public figure, the first thing you do is go out and prove that he is not who he claims to be. You are the accuser, and the accused has nothing to prove. The conclusion that he is an impostor because he did not modify a comment on one of his TikTok videos does not hold water.
When did theymos start banning people for impersonation? Isn't that the purpose of the DT system? If you have credible evidence that he is not who he claims to be, the best course of action is to tag, ignore, and move on.
Finally, someone is starting to talk a little bit of sense. The reason people want me banned because they do not think I have a Ph.D. is because they are anti-intellectuals who hate education. I sure as f@#$ am not going to f@#$ing post anything on TikTok for people who are too stupid to realize that I have a Ph.D. in Mathematics.
If impersonating a person is not sufficient reason for a ban then his threatening conduct will hopefully get him banned again.
The moderators and administrators of the forum will not be in the business of finding out who owns the account. You understand that. Therefore, in order for global moderators or administrators to take any action, you need solid evidence from a third party that the user is using someone else's name.
Exactly. And I have a Ph.D. in Mathematics. You can tell that plenty of my posts are MATHEMATICAL. Not only do the people here not have any evidence that I am impersonating anyone, but it is exceedingly clear that I do have mathematical knowledge equivalent of a Ph.D. in Mathematics. Do you see that post where I talked about using the AI systems involving the spectral radius of a sum of tensor products to produce precise evaluations of the cryptographic security of block ciphers like the AES? GUESS WHAT? That is what someone with a Ph.D. in Mathematics would come up with, and someone impersonating someone else with a Ph.D. would not come up with that. The people here seriously need to come back when they understand why the spectral radius is relevant here. And if they cannot understand it, then they should humbly walk away and apologize for their false and senseless accusations.
If anyone should be banned, it should be someone like Hispo for telling me that I need to take drugs. Hispo is the worst person imaginable.
Maybe he does not need help, he could simply be a troll and someone who is deliberately behaving the way he does because he used a particular name in every post he makes as though to ensure the name is not forgotten. If he has been banned once but wants to continue to misuse the name of someone else, he will surely take measures to ensure he does not get banned again yet he will continue to try to misuse the name he uses.
You are too f@#$ing stupid to realize that I really do have a Ph.D. in Mathematics. Just read my other posts!
Thanks for raising this question. This user offens everyone who don't agree with him and then pretends that he is victim. I think he have some mental problems, but it's not an excuse. Such things can't be tolerated. But I'm not sure what can be done. Banning him would be an option, but I'm not sure about it. During my time here I saw worse and more annoying trolls, but I don't think that they got banned. I doubt that he earned to be permabanned, but he deserves at least temporrary ban to cooldown.
Well he also is the only person to give me a negative trust.
his reason is I am stupid.
You've been here for more than 11 years, you're one of the most active forum members and only now you got your first enemy? What I can say - impreesive.
He is my second enemy and I have a frenemy.
So 3 people in 11 years and 40,000 plus posts is pretty good record.
I had a perfect record on ebay till someone gave me a neutral . that was from 2003 to 2022 and over 2000 buys and sells.
I work at it, but you can't please all the people all the time.
I do not remember why I gave you a negative trust rating, but I am pretty sure that I was right in doing so. Oh. Now that I have looked it up, it looks like I did have a good reason for doing so.
I've steered clear from interacting with this user as its pretty apparent they're a psycho troll and there's nothing that can be gained from such interaction. However, I do believe this person has always had this account and is behind their failed coin.
What our friend fails to grasp is that crypto projects are largely community-driven efforts. If there is no good leadership or sense of community, nobody will want to be part of the project, and thus it is doomed to fail. This rule still exists for coins with an overwhelming degree of technical merit.
While our friend may be mathematically brilliant, he is obviously hobbled by a complete lack of social skills and a profound stubbornness that inhibits his project's success. Unable to make this realization, he has chosen violence, blaming what appears to be the entire world for his self-induced failure.
He's far from being the only broken soul wandering the forum, however, and until he makes specific threats, banning him would go against the standard by which similar trolls are treated.
The only failures here are the stupid losers like you who are too f@#$ing stupid to realize that I am using cryptocurrency technologies not only to solve the most important scientific problem, but I am the only one who is using such technologies to prevent the next pandemic. It is really sad that I cannot build a community out of a desire to prevent the next pandemic. Yes. People are that bloodthirsty that they would rather see the next pandemic than think and actually do something about it. How sad!
I'm not sure if he is who he claims to be, likely not IMO. The guy seems to need some serious professional help though. I also think a guy who supposedly has a PhD would take the time to read the forum and learn how the place works. Maybe learn how to use the trust system if he is going to partake in using it. Banning him is useless IMO as it's just as easy to ignore him.
If you were an intelligent person, you would search my posts for mathematics to tell whether I really do have a Ph.D. in Mathematics. Duh.
Well, you should be thankful you are not me, deserving 1 tag per week. 😒 now imagine how ph.D would feel, no friends, a totally dead coin that nobody buys or mines, posts getting deleted, everyone attacking him, having the delusion of being a math ph.D, and on top of that getting banned. I kind of feel his pain.
My coin is still the only cryptocurrency with a mining algorithm that is designed to advance science. You are just too f@#$ing stupid to understand it because you are trash. And you are really nasty and hateful too. God hates your soul.
