Ever since I saw zasad@’s thread
[Interviews] with Bitcointalk members, I wondered why there was no interview with theymos, our administrator. I figured zasad@ probably asked him, but theymos simply ignored him.
I concluded that zasad@ shouldn’t be the only one to get ignored, so I PMed theymos, worked my charms and asked to do an interview with him. And guess what…? Nothing! Being a stubborn bastard, I tried again after a few weeks, but I added circa 30 questions in the PM this time. Still, theymos didn’t reply back.
After a few sleepless nights, I came up with something else. I will use the freedoms that theymos gave us and force him to do something he clearly doesn’t want to do. It’s only fair, I think.
Below are
My 30 Questions for theymos. I have reasons to believe that LoyceV will leave the forum for good if theymos doesn’t come through. That would be a massive loss for the forum, and theymos is the only one who can prevent that.
Let’s make our own profile of our admin based on the information we can find on him and the things we already know. We can help him and answer the questions in his name.
