Guys, maybe we could stop quoting trolls? Anti-troll posts do not help either, unless they are substantive arguments presented for the benefit of lurkers and even then there is no need to feed the trolls. Everyone that has them on ignore suffers because of this.
I agree, this thread has become virtually unreadable in recent days. It's easier said than done, the trolls are very good at annoying the hell out of you. It is possible though, and this thread would be a better place for it. My pages just have "This user is currently ignored", with a couple of real posts per page. It's way easier that way!
Conflict of interest
It seems like a lot of members from other projects don't understand very well the concept of conflict of interest. When you have a conflict of interest on a subject you should refrain from commenting on it, on said discussion thread, even if you have arguments you think are valid. When you insist on posting even though you have a clear conflict your arguments are invalidated.
It is a little presumptuous to think that the people that do not have a conflict, the lurkers, are not capable of the same critical thinking we are capable of. So when you have a conflict you should just let others participate in the argument and stay out of it. That is why competition trolling here is so ineffective, they come across as arrogant to the lurkers who are perfectly capable of doing their own research and making their own decisions, no one needs saviors here. The crypto community at large is intelligent enough to make their own choices.
Is the same reason why we should not go to other threads to post anything. We just need to continue working hard and doing our best to bring value to end users. That is all we care about.
So please do not quote trolls, instead think of something positive and concrete you can do to help DASH in the real world and do it.
Well said. Focus on our tasks at hand, let the trolls burn themselves out...
