Topic: Motion to give BADecker a special designation (Read 360 times)

Well I tried to write speculative and it auto corrected to spectacular. YET you magically know this and wrote speculative. this is the Badecker influence at its best.😀

wow speculative fiction is a term i havent heard for a long time. it evokes memories the of early science fiction magazines from back in the day that i used to read.

but badecker is more fantasy than speculative.

I love to read badecker he hits all the good ones. With an absolute belief in what he says.

Now I know I could write ✍️ a lot and wild crazy shit if I want to but it would be a joke a goof. Sooner or later someone would figure out that I am spoofing.

To this day I am not short if badecker is a sincere believer or a spectacular fiction writer.

Which is why he should get a special title.

Agreed, albeit, after awhile, debunking the plethora of BADecker nonsense on this forum over the years is like beating a dead horse.
The plus side being I get a good laugh from his lunacy, when I actually, for whatever reason, click on one of his ridiculous threads.

Gave you a few merits. 😀

"Motion to give BADecker a special designation"

Like this?



That'd be a great recognition of his special contributions to this forum.

Obviously, I was just kidding, dude. I'm not really into medicine that much, but all I know is there's no cure for cancer yet. So, my response on the thread started by @Joeyp wasn't about the whole cure thing. I was more focused on that statement that goes something like this.


He got it wrong there. He jumped to the conclusion that the merit system doesn't work just because of some fake info.

Well, that's not my problem, is that? I know that some folks believe anything they see on TV. I can tell you even worse, some people get calls from strangers that offer them investment options and these people tell them their debit/credit card numbers, it's hilarious. Life is different today, you can't even trust so called licensed doctors anymore because they are just salesmen. Perfect example: Your child has ADD or ADHD, you go to the doctor and doctor tells you that we should give Vynvase or Adderall to her to the rest of his life. Seriously, when you are a parent, does it really require any knowledge of medical terminology to analyze that it's not a good idea to put your kid on strong drugs like amphetamines for the rest of her life? So, my perception is that in life you have to fight and shake your head or you will become a victim of others. Absolutely every day and night I prefer freedom of speech and prefer to act according to my critical thinking and abilities rather than to be under someone's caged censorship.

I cannot tell if you're being sarcastic, joking, or what.  Hopefully so, because there's no way in the hottest hell a member like BADecker knows something about cancer that's been eluding scientists for decades/centuries.

And aren't we living in a world where unpopular opinions are expected to be stifled as soon as they're discovered?  I've noticed that a lot on Youtube where creators can't even use the word "suicide" because it's apparently such a horrible word that it'll get videos demonetized.  And then there's all of the things you can't say with respect to identity politics.  So what I'm saying is that perhaps Joeyp is one of those new-generation youngsters who expect people to say what they want to hear and nothing they don't.  I don't know, but I don't care how outrageous BADecker's (or anyone else's) conspiracy theories are; they should be debunked instead of censored.

Word to the bird.  However, the sentence I highlighted might be wishful thinking, because I've met plenty of people who don't think critically about anything.  You'd hope that wouldn't be the case, but some folks will believe anything they see on TV or the internet, especially if it's info with a lot of technical jargon that they don't understand but is presented in such a way that it sounds like it makes sense.  That can happen very easily when medical info is presented, because most people don't understand medical terminology....and blah blah blah.  Christ, how can I get this pessimistic before I've even finished my first cup of coffee of the day?

This user is either troll or has some serious mental issues, especially when it comes to politics but since this forum is about freedom of speech, we should leave it this way and shouldn't start marking other people with special designation for their different opinion. Every human being is born with brain and as we grow up, we learn analytical and critical thinking. So, if someone writes that fish oil treats anemia, doesn't mean you should believe that. In the first case, you should either completely ignore that or do your own deep research or at least check them on websites like mayoclinic and drugs.com

Since this topic is about the BADecker's post on some medications against cancer, I still think he shouldn't be marked for that. Internet is free, just type Fenbendazole on ncbi.nlm.nih.gov and you'll find some interesting answers.
By the way, in our life, problem is not that BADecker talks about what he doesn't know, the problem is that FDA is a very corrupt organization also and they accept drugs from pharma companies that pay the most. FDA often ignores every bad side of drug if proper sum of money is paid.

For a second, you really got me. I taught that it was really fast for such a custom title to be added close to the user's rank. Just this fast, it could have made me wonder if the admin was really waiting for such a motion to be moved, and he just immediately gave the user the custom title. But no, I was all wrong in visiting the link, and I notice that just some editing appears to be perfectly placed in the right place and right thread of discussion.

I really don't know if there was some member to whom their thread and discussion obsessed so much due to the content it carries to the extent that they needed a whole new board assigned to them alone. It's ridiculous to imagine, especially when the said person might be someone a few newbies might be looking up to to learn from.

How about a totally (not so) new badge without legendary in it; "ignore"

This comes with extra perks;
• You can give out the badge yourself at will, and
• It blocks the trolls from showing up on our screen.

I don't understand what you're talking about, this is what I see in my browser.




*Sorry theymos

You know, it's often said there's no cure for cancer, but what if BADecker has a solution? It might be worth a shot.  

Seriously, Joeyp shouldn't be upset. This is a forum where people have diverse opinions. If he doesn't like a post, he can just skip it; it won't hurt him, I'm sure. Or maybe, if he doesn't want to visit the forum, there are way worse misleading posts out there. But you might be right, what if Joeyp is dealing with a condition like cancer, or perhaps he's a doctor who does not want his product to be competed with BADecker's ? You never know.  



I totally agree. It would make it much easier for people to express their stance, especially those who might not be able to do so in words.

I think this thread needed a poll.


P&S actually. I don't go there much, but you can see he's dedicated to spreading a lot of conspiracy theories. You name the conspiracy theory, he believes it. I remember there was a thread about him already. I think I haven't put him in my ignore list because almost everything he writes is on the P&S board.

Got laugh just a bit. Some of BADeckers stuff is amazing!

Permission to dismiss the motion.  
I always wanted to say that. 🤣

A big LOL headed down the turnpike your way, philipma1957. 

What's up with two threads about BADecker in one day?  He must frequent the Off-topic section, because I can't say I've ever come across a post of his at random.  Now as far as giving him a special rank related to trolling activities, that seems like something that ought to be voted on by the community, not assigned by Theymos.  And even if there were such a vote in the form of a poll or whatever, what do you think the chances would be of Theymos actually going for it?  I seriously doubt he would, especially since such a rank would be an insult.

The little devil that lives on my shoulder really wants something like this to happen.  We need to seriously liven things up around here, don't you think?

 How about

"legendary troller"

instead of legendary member

he is the best of btc at posting amazing threads with fantastically hard to believe ideas.


Honorable mention to NotBatman for his Flat earth thread {now shut down}

I was inspired by this thread

 https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/legendary-members-spread-completely-fake-information-merit-system-do-not-work-5469928

I sympathize with Joeyp the op of it.

Maybe he has suffered with cancer  or has lost someone from cancer and the thread BADecker posted was hurtful to him.

ideas and opinions of honoring Bedecked with a well deserved designation.  He would be the only one on bitcointalk to have it.
