Sorry... who are we talking about? Roll Eyes



Honestly, this entire forum would be a much better place if more people used the "Ignore" feature... I reckon the amount of petty bickering would decrease dramatically, but people don't and instead we get extended shouting contests and lots of red trust thrown about Undecided

I put him on 'ignore' a long time ago. Some people aren't even worth it to read the bullshit they come up with.

Besides not all trolls are giving us a hard time. Some are actually funny although we think of them as mentally ill. Let them do what they want even if they abuse what they can abuse. In fact non of these will affect our accounts and life.
Not everyone is as anonymous as you are. If you have an account here with a real name or something that can attach you to your identity, i neither would be happy if i were to have a trust list with people calling me a "Child rapist" or "Mentally Ill".

Really, that's 4chan tier, and while it might be the epitome of free speech, i don't think that's the direction we should be headed with this forum.


Newbies who aren't familiar with the forum who look at your trust list and see a bunch of fake retaliatory ratings (especially of this severity), might definitely impact how you're perceived by them, even if the ratings are completely false. I've had this happen before. So, no, it's not completely harmless (or has the potential not to be anyway.)

Just my two cents though.

Ignorance is bliss...It has always helped me in such cases.
Indeed.  I'll always ignore game-protect's posts because they're all in the gambling section, which I never visit. 

I have less of a problem with his apparently off-topic posts than I do with his feedback spamming.  Even though he's not on DT, some members will be swayed not to trade with someone with a lot of negative trust, even if it's obviously wrong.  I know that issue was reported in at least one thread, but I don't think it was ever resolved.

The mods seem a bit pussy to be honest with you. They will ban people for shit posting or copy pasting but hesitate a lot to ban a guy that:
I'm pretty sure it's not a moderator issue but one with Theymos, who's the mods' boss.  I have a hard time believing moderators don't want to ban this guy--but I could be wrong, and I'm not sure because nothing has been transparent.  But given that game-protect leaves spam negative feedback and is breaking all sorts of rules (apparently), I tend to think the moderators' hands are tied to some extent.  Perhaps they can chime in.

True, it's possible their hands are tied.

Knock it off, will yah? You're way too being serious about this guy,... Lemme give yah some butthurt cream 😂
What ever you do to them they'll just come up with new accounts besides this forum is totally free! So they'll just pop up with a new one and will definitely spam a lot more than usual.

Almost all forums and social media platforms are free and you can create more accounts if you want, that doesn't mean they don't ban people, that excuse is probably the stupidest excuse I have ever read, yeah let's just let everyone spam, troll and shit post because he can create another account.

1.  'Copy pastes' too, he keeps posting this message: 'This extremely mentally ill bitcointalk account believes that anyone dealing with game-protect is at a high risk of losing money, even though we are since 3,5 years active with over 500 online casino scam reports received and no one ever lost money while dealing with game-protect!' almost everywhere.

2. is a shit poster too

3. scum and disgusting human being

4. pretty much a scammer too
Agreed.

I'm all for free speech and allowing everyone on your platform no matter their political stances/observations, but when you start spamming people's trust lists with stuff that's obviously false. (Being a rapist, & mentally ill because of X), really, some action should be taken...?

I believe he was temp-banned? but most of the trust still remains. Or did he do it again after his tempban? I know it doesn't matter (for most people), but it just looks extremely stupid to me and it's just overall slightly annoying to get smeared like this. People who are new to the forum and look at my trust list (or people in general who are ignorant of who he is), might actually get the wrong impression of me. Anyway.

Not to mention that his business model is nothing but blackmailing casinos. I'd say he has quite the set of (missing) morals,- although that in itself shouldn't be bannable, it just shows he's a big f-ing asshole.

Does it matter if he is viewed as a service provider? Trolling is trolling and that's actually against the rules.

Depends to whom. Tongue
I don't view GP as a service provider, nor does 99% of the board (I believe).
But my opinion about GP, and the opinion of most of the users who expressed theirs about GP, is not going to do anything.

What is it going to be then ?

Is it GP being a plain troll, doing just that for the fancy of driving us nuts AND then he offers a "player protection service".
OR
Is he a (not moderated) service provider that crosses a little bit too far on the "troll" side when bullying regular users so he turns them into "customers". (gets money to stop harassment)

The fact that he's still roaming free on this board while being regularly reported for years, tells us how the moderation team perceive GP.

With a community that sensible, I can't say for theymos and the rest of the forum team, what would be the best for Bitcointalk.

@Royse you could save your time and sanity just putting him on ignore.

It's exactly what I am doing. But no, I don't agree with you. If Royse has the time and energy to fight with him, let him do it. Somehow gp has to get a bad feedback for his trolling.

The biggest mistake online casino victims can do is listen to extremely mentally ill bitcointalk accounts like Royse777!

Quote
marlboroza alleges: Due largely to the factors mentioned in this topic, I believe that anyone dealing with game-protect is at a high risk of losing money, and guests would be well-advised to avoid doing so. This determination is based on concrete red flags which any knowledgeable & reasonable forum user should agree with, and it is not based on the user's opinions.

This extremely mentally ill bitcointalk account believes that anyone dealing with game-protect is at a high risk of losing money, even though we are since 3,5 years active with over 500 online casino scam reports received and no one ever lost money while dealing with game-protect! Cheesy

@Royse you could save your time and sanity just putting him on ignore. Its great tool which does wonder sometimes. I do this all the times, putting on ignore and then unignore after some time when I am bored af and only for lolz. Repeat cycle
Yeah, you could easily put him on ignore but that doesn't really solve the problem. He should be banned, period.


Ban for trolling and that too in interweb? Not sure if that's a suitable approach. Trolling can be dealt with active moderation and put on ignore. Ban is the last option for rare cases when the first 2 options fail to provide a solution, and well It's working fine for me TBH. You might want to try this for a couple of months. If it does not work for you, then you can surely repeat your words and I quote " He should be banned, period" But first you gotta try it brother.

And if by any chance hammering comes in plays just because of trolling then a list of trolls could be long..

1. Flat Earth vs Everyone
2. Religious - Atheist
3. Pro-Gun vs Everyone
4. Every political group (right-left-up-down-centre)

The list goes on....every group at some point of the discussion see another group as a potential troll, I hope you got my point and if not then it's fine too. Cheers

He should have been banned a long time ago, it's funny how this forum operates sometimes, they instantly ban people for copy-pasting but hesitate to ban an obvious troll, shitty poster, scam artist and trust abuser. Pretty weird.

Unfortunately I believe GP is viewed more as a "service" provider, than a plain troll & shitty poster.
Hiding behind his offers and a few of his posts being directly aimed at some gambling game operators so they explain what they do better.

It's half/half. Because he relies on bulying some gambling games operators, some end up giving him money so he stops, and the rest won't care.

Now from the point of view of the moderation team, it's a tough spot because as long as they consider him as a "service" provider, I think they won't do anything.
Since scams aren't moderated (banned), GP benefits from this kind of "immunity".
He isn't the random scam artist, he put a lot of time into designing it and he's at it almost daily.

He needs to constantly keep a blurred line between a "business" and being a bully. Which you got to admit, he's doing a great job at.

I remember once he wanted to "hire" a sales manager (or whatever lunatic position he can think of). Well guess how this went when he was asked for the location of his offices. Tongue

So anyway, I applied as a merit source :)
....and no one ever lost money while dealing with game-protect!
Sure, they didnt. You must be world famous them are you not? Damn that sucks doesnt it? Such a capable person who can take out the "extorted" money from every victim's loss at a casino that you know are scam. You should have become a billionaire by now and all the casinos owners would have become beggars if you had been doing what you really talk about.

Heck, I forgot you can only type (not even talk) and your lack of cerebral hemispheres make it difficult for you to speak truth. Probably thats why you can sleep soundly at night after having scammed people everyday. Tongue

Why is it every casino out there is still making money everyday becoming rich and you can bring back every cent they "stole" from their customers? Grin

game-protect is annoying for a lot of us. He keeps posting off-topic in various topics and keep talking his nonsense. Users including me are guilty of feeding his trolling. I decided to stay silent in his responses but start reporting his off topics.

Now while I already started to report his off-topic posts, I discovered the trick he is using to look his off-topic trolling is not off-topic.

Check this post: http://archive.is/myARp#selection-6223.0-6223.81

But it was not originally the same. The original one when I reported:



The original was indeed very identical to make up your mind in a flash of moment that it was spammy post, trolling and off-topic but now when he updated the same post, it does not look much spammy. It still looks trolling and slightly off-topic but question is can a mod will agree with me after looking on the updated post? (I do not care much)

Now when I clearly explained something in my post here:
I just discovered a solution. Whenever I will see an off-topic response from game-protect, I will report it to the moderator.

He posted an obvious question here:
You just discovered a solution for what?

I am going to report this response too as off-topic and trolling.

Let's stay calm, do not response to any post of game-protect and keep reporting his off-topic and troll posts.
