Topic: [DIY] BitcoinTalk ≠ Bitcoin - page 2. (Read 499 times)
This forum is devoted to the whole of all cryptic currencies. And before, there was only one bitcoin, so earlier these two things were tightly knitted, and now too. Who would have been able to say that so everything will develop rapidly?
I think there is a similarity between bitcointalk and bitcoin. if bitcoin and the crypto market die then the bitcointalk will also disappear
Well if the whole internet shuts down then Facebook, Google or even Bitcoin - all gone!
I think some people are just ignorant and they just don't want to read but feel the urge to post nonsense.
If you use any social media networks just join a large group like traffic announcements or some general topic that is relevant to a lot of people. You will be amazed by the amount of people that post comments and do not have any idea on the subject or have not read or understood the post/message.
It's the same thing here with some people. I know BTC and BCT are similar abbreviations but you will find the difference between the two if you read the posts on this forum

It's a fact i guess LOL.
You will always embarrass yourself if you do not take enough time to understand a community in the first place. Truth is, as they go most of them figure it out. Like you said, it's the urge to post

...That is why don't acquire essential knowledge about cryptocurrencies and the fact that they relate bitcoin to this forum is a sign that they are members who can't contribute well in the forum.
It drives me nuts when I read shitposts like "I join bitcoin because it gives a good income" or some ridiculous garbage like that. Indeed, like OP is saying, such people are getting BTC (the cryptocurrency) confused with bitcointalk (the forum). And the problem is, for a lot of people in 3rd world countries who heard about bitcointalk from friends, there is no difference between the two. Bitcointalk IS bitcoin for them, and they see this forum as a job...which is another issue entirely.
I could not agree more with you. Your (especially The Pharmacist's) analogy was perfectly presented.Satoshi created Bitcoin, then founded Bitcointalk to discuss it. It's really not rocket science.
For some people it looks like a rocket science. Trust me if you look around then you will find tons of posts where people are really confused about this silly common sense.I agree that the post is not worth starting a thread but NO, it's not merit begging. Since people started labeling like that, I have never given a sh*t about merit. Clear?
I am not sure why it can be a topic but hey, thank you for you kind words
It's sad to see that people think this kind of thread is like merit begging. No, it's not. Come on guys, Have some sense. You don't have to label everything as merit begging. I agree that the post is not worth starting a thread but NO, it's not merit begging. Since people started labeling like that, I have never given a sh*t about merit. Clear?
I also seen so many members use this forum just for social media bounty campaign, and their rank go up just by posting a weekly report, though untill Jr. Member!
And before the merit system exist, I found many members use this tricks, and they got high rank.

They're not similar, and the relationship between the two is so obvious that only people scraping their claws on language barriers need to have it explained to them.It drives me nuts when I read shitposts like "I join bitcoin because it gives a good income" or some ridiculous garbage like that.

Good thread, OP. I'm going to hope that people actually read this and figure out the difference.

Yes you are absolutely right. Bitcointalk is a forum where we have a chat with different people with different opinions for different crypto. As mentioned above if crypto die. This forym will also finish. But crypto is the future so neither interest die nor bitcointalk.
LMAO! Shitposters are taking spamming to a whole new level. Technically, those are the members that who don't do anything but to spam posts for the sake of earning stakes in their signature. They don't even care in the discussions of members in the thread where they post into. That is why they don't acquire essential knowledge about cryptocurrencies and the fact that they relate bitcoin to this forum is a sign that they are members who can't contribute well in the forum.
Are there really people who think it's the same thing?) 
By visiting this forum for the first time immediately realize the purpose of the forum, there's info not only about bitcoin...

There are people out there (in this forum of course) think that merit system is kinda centralized and it hurts the decentralized spirit that bitcoin brought for all people in here. Seriously, i have seen it in the early time of merit. I bet they are still thinking that way up till now.
Which are your main objectives when starting the topic? Only or mainly for merit begging?
Dude please, don't over-smart yourself. This shit really bothers me a lot. Some people think that creating a topic means begging for merits, I have seen it a lot of people like you thinking the same way in a lot of new topics. Just because merit is here does not mean no one can create a new topic? Whats wrong with creating a topic when there are really something to discuss?
I even gave an example on my original post about how people mix-up this little common sense and yet still you are logically finding it hard of the reasons of creating this post.
Do you think people are dumb or something?
Unfortunately, yes. There are some people out there who are lacking of common sense like the one on my original post.
Do you think people are dumb or something?
Are you mad?
Which are your main objectives when starting the topic? Only or mainly for merit begging?
I don't think what you wrote are logically expressed. Haha, sorry for saying this fact.
Notes:
Begging for merits are not supported by the bitcointalk community, especially real users, who really hate spammers, cheaters, greedy users mainly tried to earn as much money as possible from the forum campaigns.

Just read this... LOL
I have seen similar thinking (wrong) from many other members. They think BitcoinTalk is Bitcoin, being a member of BitcoinTalk is involving with Bitcoin.
Folks,
Bitcoin is a currency. Think about the fiat currency we have: Dollar, Pound, Euro etc. Using Bitcoin you can trade (buy/sell goods) same as using fiat. One of the difference among many differences between Bitcoin and Fiat currency is, fiat has physical existence and bitcoin is digital. Read more about Bitcoin FAQ
On the other hand, BitcoinTalk is only a forum. Satoshi (creator of Bitcoin) started this forum so that people like you and me who love Bitcoin can hangout with each others.
So please do not mix up Bitcoin with BitcoinTalk.
Mixing up Bitcoin with BitcoinTalk is like mixing up Facebook (today's biggest social media) with the entire internet.
