You must learn that mentality from RPC.

Without Chairman Mao China would never be united. the Chinese people would not be living a freedoom life .

Am i right?

You must learn that your politicking instead of competing is Communism. Duh.

The joke just went right over your head.


Just because Theymos is the chief operator of the forum does not mean the forum would not be running without him.

Did you know Satoshi created the forum and gave Theymos admin right ? Without Theymos it would have been someone else.

Time to step back and re look at your flawed logic

I am aware that some have stated that Satoshi annoited Theymos.

Again you want to use politics to steal someone's asset thus Communism.

You act as if the forum is owned by the users and not by the owners of the forum. Capitalism not Communism.

You weren't there where Theymos was. Don't be jealous of his foresight. Go create your own foresight. Do NOT steal.

Wait what did i steal? Idiot I'm simply countering your point regarding what theymos have done. You must have comprehensive problem

Yet another thread about "censorship" in the wrong section. It's like, after a single decision that people do not agree with him, everything that theymos has done is being ignored.

This one single person holds absolute centralized control
This is wrong. I could even call it FUD. The domain name is owned by Martti Malmi aka Sirius. He holds more power related to the forum than theymos.

They should just pause moderation on this forum for a single day, and you'd see what would happen.

Bitcoin-xt is not a ‘threat’ to bitcoin. It it is an option, a choice, a candidate to be voted on. One where the community can vote on which features they want to see in bitcoin, versus those which they do not. [/i]

Indeed. Which is why it is reasonable for those who oppose it to stand their ground, in hopes of a better solution. The block size limit doesn't need to be raised in a day; XT is not the only option. The block size limit will inevitably be increased (and if not, we will simply pay more fees). So I won't support XT and I will keep running a Core node until XT is stripped down to a simple block size limit increase (I don't really support the 2x per year increase either but whatever), or a better alternative comes along. In the meantime, those who oppose XT should continue to voice their opinion (after all, who votes without context?) -- certainly with so much baseless vitriol coming from the other side.

You should be grateful that theymos has been able to keep these forums up against all the DoS attacks and basically allowed anyone to say anything they want.

Otherwise you'd have a bunch of fragmented communication sites and no economy-of-scale for us to speak to each other efficiently as a global community.

He allowed all that block size debate to go on and on and on.

You are free to compete and make your own top Bitcoin forum. Even Google refuses to link to this forum any more, because TPTB don't like the free speech that theymos provides. They'll probably take down his forums somehow eventually.

Come on just admit it. You love politics, communism, and a big government dick up your ass as a result.

Well, it is moderated by the same person, yes, but in the end , there is no power that could stop mass of users that want to say something against core version.
I also don't like centralization, but it is highly unlikely that we can avoid it in every form. Not without scattering bitcoin into 100 different versions and backers anyways.
I'm just trying to say, that opening up the gate to every "option" bitcoin can fork into isn't the answer either.


This has nothing to do with who open the gate because the system is designed to find consensus. Thats the fundamental of bitcoin and for a long time bitcoin experts have explained the best defense mechanism is the network comes to consensus to ignore or nullify the attack.

My point is forking is a feature not a bug.

This one single person holds absolute centralized control of the two largest communications platforms for the community to discuss the future and evolution of bitcoin.

This is both a difficult and simple problem to solve at the same time. It is difficult in that the two largest forums for discussion of bitcoin are under the centralized control of a single individual. He exercises absolute power of what is, or is not, allowed to be discussed; including complete and total censorship power over the narrative in the two largest media outlets.

...

Bitcoin-xt is not a ‘threat’ to bitcoin. It it is an option, a choice, a candidate to be voted on. One where the community can vote on which features they want to see in bitcoin, versus those which they do not.
