Topic: Other Forum members are more civil than Legendary members, Why? - page 2. (Read 1015 times)

If you think that a member is acting out of line, simply make a comment on why you think so. If your comment is a well reasoned one, you will find that members who act appropriately may agree with you...in some cases.

The reason I say in some cases is because that there is a level of validity to your post. Some members have grown such a power in the forum where they can (and sometimes do) cross the line and get away with it, as others fear getting roped into drama, or in some cases, being persecuted, for speaking against powerful members. Unfortunately, you have two choices here. Go against the grain and speak up (which may cause potentially undeserved consequences), or move on (maybe reluctantly, but with less drama as a result).

Because some of them are more vocal with their opinions and can articulate what they want to say better than most of us and sometimes when multiple like that exists in an enclosed like this one, they'll eventually find some differences that they're going to disagree upon and are passionate about, best thing to do when this happens is that don't join the talk between these people unless your username is specifically mentioned by others then your all good, most of the time, those disagreements are within their circle of people anyway so you don't worry about them, you know kind of like being in prison, keep your head low and you'll keep that head from rolling and don't ask questions unless you're being asked to, that's it.

Pretty heavy accusation to throw willy-nilly my friend. At the very least you could've provided receipts stating what you're claiming to be the case. I checked on your profile for posts where you got attacked by a Legendary member and I don't see any, so this is either some post you made up cause you see some of them being very vocal about their statements or you're just trying to stir up some trouble in this forum, either way I don't think it's fair to these people that you accuse them of something and you can't back up what you're trying to say.

Plus I don't think I have ever seen someone here scrutinize someone for their personal affiliation just yet, and even then if they did that would be grounds for account bans. Feels like you're just butthurt for those who got called out by legendaries for subpar content, or for what I think what you think is them being very harsh on lower ranking members when the truth of the matter is that they're just being very personalized with their way of conveying their thoughts. Either way not inherently bad for the forum all in all.

Thing is wherever you go there will be people who won't agree with your shit, let's just be real on that. It's how you react upon these people that would determine whether you're really cut for this forum or you want those echo chambers where they keep patting themselves on the back even though they knew with 1000% certainty they are doing the wrong thing.

I don't know if you did joke or not with your question, but I will give you a honest thinking that often is the reason why people act like that on the internet:

People that often bully others on internet behind a monitor was often bullied themself as kids and are extremely insecure, unhappy and sad and depressed. (and get bullied sucks and I am against it to to 100%)
But instead to change their life to the better and work hard they take the easy and lazy way in lif and go online and spread the hate they have inside them on innocent people.
That's how it often is in cases like this. But we all knows about this right? "The loudest one in the room, is the weakest one in the room.”
But regarding "suchmoon" I got no idea. But one thing I am pretty sure of if we all would meet in real life the way people act here would not be the same they act IRL. That I can assure you.
Just ignore it and move on or join and stand behind it, it's up to you.  
But for every "hate/troll" this user say, they more it says about the user then any other user. So I just laugh at it because I know the real behind the behavior and I hope one day she/he realize the real way to happiness,
I was my self very low one time in life and on a journey to change, still got lows, but trying to be nice to others and my self. If you want a change in the world or life, you gotta start with yourself.
It's nothing cool to act tough anonymous it totally the opposite weak and nerdy and what I mean is: It's not about who you hang with it's about who you are and what your action is.
We all are the same same but different, nobody stay over anyone else.  
But anyway if it make him/her happy let it go. it's not like she/he have any success to be proud of in life anyway and I can assure you she/he got here struggles in life and bully people here maybe makes here a bit happier.  

Respect.

To OP @Funke

Maybe because they don't know how the forum works, the say what they think, they haven't choose "gang" yet? they have the guts to say what they think even if it's right or wrong.
Here if you say wrong or go against a a rep-group or a rep-member you could would end up with some lie's on your feedback wall and get your reputation destroyed just because you only shared your opinion.
REP-Members know that so they avoid it. New members don't. Could be a reason? And the one's giving feedback don't care because for them "neutral" is the same like say "Hey you are ugly" but what they missing is that many users listen to what they say even if it's true or not.

And many REP-members think they stand over all others because they got some irrelevant status but they missing a big point, life is bigger then this and its very sad because we all here share one thing the love of crypto and decentralized places so instead of argue who got the biggest penis we could go together as as a group and this forum would improve and be a strong community, as now it's just a sad place with some low exception's and I think 95% is here only to earn money and nothing else.
 
BUT! You can still find good information, good people and so on.
But as I said in beginning if you do something that a REP-member does not like they can easy destroy your account, and that is a kind of power nobody should have in the world wherever whatever it is.

That is my opinion.

Respect and Best regards

Thing is this forum's not an echo chamber, and I think that while Hero and Legendary members definitely start to show their attitude here, it's for the greater good of the forum altogether. Why?

Well, would you rather have people here who are nothing but Yesmen, those who would always agree with you or be polite to you whenever you make a massive mistake, or a polarizing opinion that would otherwise affect not only you but the forum itself, or would you rather have genuine people with real personalities who, while otherwise prickly, are true to themselves and to what they believe in? Personally I'd choose the latter as it gives this forum more life and ensures that it promotes true interactions and not ones made for the sake of farming merits. You get me my friend? And while I'm not saying we should tolerate some of these legendary members when they start going ballistic and shit, I say we shouldn't report people just because they don't agree with you.

Well, honestly, the rank of anyone member here is not commensurate with their knowledge disposal. Some high ranking members became so due to merits they received either from their known pals here or by any other means. Check the post count and quality of post that earned them the rank and one would see that many are just opportuned to have attained the rank.
Still, they have the right to scrutinize and criticize whatever content is being published here.

There's no need to be emotional or hold any grudge against a legendary member because this isn't a one on one conversation where faces would be looked at. Don't take any word or sentence or statement personal. Just try to be yourself despite the critics and that's how to attain the highest rank here.
No hate, only love and understanding.

@funke, from what I can see, Poker Player was not insulting your person in that thread. He was addressing the article you gathered the information from. I hope you do not expect people to believe and accept everything you post here without questioning your opinion or having their own views.

I think all this sensitive behavior newbies claim to have is a facade. They desperately want to see cyber bullying where there isn’t. Probably it’s the only way they feel they can be seen and heard is to play victim of the system. 

I am also a Legendary Member, so do you feel me that I am also like the same as you are describing as Rude 

I would suggest that you name those members with proof else people like me can say the same thing about you that you are giving wrong feedback about us 


Some posters may be aggressive and abusive too (depends upon the conversation) but this has nothing to do with the rankings. Even a Newbie members are sometimes found to be "out of control". By the way, A Legendary Member was sometimes a Newbie too and ranked up. Personality does not change with ranking or does it?

In approaching your answers towards the posts of legendary members, it's important to provide facts and not just "saying that this is what's happening" and it's not gonna be taken lightly and understood because there's no evidence.

Let me get this clear OP, you are baiting the Legendary members to post here and use that as the proof? That is the proof that you have? You incited it in the first place and provided zero evidence of what you are talking about and then said along the lines of "told you so" because of the replies.

This is lyrically wrong and I would have to disagree with you because because few could look insulting but do not generally mean that every legendary rank have the same characters. You will have to abolish this claim because it is untrue. Almost 70% of the legendary rank ha e the humility to advise and help each and every remaining ranks on how to deal with random situations.

For you to accuse every legendary members mean maybe you had been attacked before for something wrong and you think that they ought not to address you in that manners. Almost everyone in this forum had been address in an inappropriate manners not less than twice since when we have been here in the forum.

Hehehehehe... 😂

You should've been here pre-2020 to observe what abusive comments were during the days of Lauda and other supremos. As a newbie you would've felt unworthy with any acerbic response of those ilks on your posts. It wasn't funny. What we've now is mild use of language when compared to that era. Their acerbic responses weren't unleashed on newbies alone. You could see such mudslinging among the legendary users too. Again, rude behaviour knows no class, age, clan etc. It cuts across. It's not a legendary thing alone that people here decide to be overtly imposing in their interactions with others. The only reason newbies don't display such supposed rudeness is because they fear high ranked members might gang up against them. They wait until they rank up to retaliate and the circle continues.

You've a strong point there!

Well, welcome to the real world, everyone has different standard of politeness, and you can't expect them to follow yours. People will be rude especially if you can not punch them in the face while they doing that. And about why higher-ranking tend to be rude and arrogant, I guess it's just the same, in this forum and in real-life people who think they have more knowledge and experiences tend to show more arrogance toward other who they think less than them. If you have been on the internet enough one or two words shouldn't hurt you, don't be weak.

I blame my parents, the society, this forum and Satoshi in particular, because it's obviously everyone else's fault that I turned out this way.

It's very common for people this days to see correction as been arrogant or pride, rather than picking positive corrections while discarding the negative once, because on a public forum just as this, you can't expect everybody to be saints or civil on their means of reacting to issues that goes off the forum rules and regulations, because as a Newbie, it's very certain that those set of people are prone to making lots of mistake, of which you can't just expect everybody to be civil at all times when reacting to post or thread created on the forum. Hence, it's high time newbies get to understand that bitcointalk is a public space, and as such you don't expect everybody to feed you with milk and better, but be willing and able to withstand whatever pressure that may come your way in a civilized manner, because it's not easy to attain the rank of a Legendary member, hence, they deserves our respect, unless for a few who fails to respect themselves.

Why do you always have to bully others?

You post something that another member thinks is bullshit, so they say that. You both expressed your opinions. However you feel the other member is insulting and bullying you, even though they never said anything against your person, just disagreed with your opinion. You have an option to respond to their opinion but you choose to resort to fallacies (tone complaint etc) in a chickenshit roundabout way by creating a thread about non-existent bullying.

Let's say he (Op) is among the set of people who claims they really wants to learn whereas they are never interested in learning. In their subconscious state of mind they rejected corrections to them they have accepted it but their ego refuses them to let go of their wrongs.
The screaming is just a way of calling attention off what they did so that it's seems obvious that they know what they are saying. deep down they must have learnt from your correction but never accepts it in an open place inorder to get a stupid reputation.

I have created a thread some months ago in the B&H board trying to let newbies know about quoting wrongly in order to claim (knowledge) wise but most of them turn the advise down because maybe I'm a kid or a newbie too and they are mostly graduates in some courses but ignorant in other areas of life.

For people like you pmalek you tried your best to keep people in the right track but if they don't listen it's left for them you have done your part.

It sounds to me that if you don't agree with Funke, have a different opinion, or point out how wrong they are, they will get offended, scream, and call you a bully. If that's the case, then it's their own insecurity that is the cause of the problems they believe exist. Several people have asked to see examples of unwarranted acts of aggression of legendary members against newbies and there still aren't any.     

I have told OP countless of times about his posting styles that are always off topics, that it's not making much sense to be writing things that are meant to be posted in your social media handles that will be seen as likely a mere post than post it here in the forum.

Although we are mates or the same level he (op) would likely not listen to my advise. Clearly he has no prove of insults or bullying but from some comments in his post he most have experienced some kind of aggressive advises that sounds hash but only in his perspective while the reasons for such response is because he reluctantly refused to change his posting styles or area of posting but its all to point him to the right direction but he doesn't see it that way.

One thing I always advise my fellow newbies is before posting or publishing any content in the forum you most first consider the core purpose of the forum which is Bitcoin discussion and then before you can diversify your content but let it not leave without a true purpose of the forum by doing that you tend to create more interesting contents than off topics.

Funke grow a thicker skin! Focus more on Bitcoin related stuffs and learn. Use this link https://learnmeabitcoin.com/ and learn more about Bitcoin so you can change your posting styles, it's all for your good mate don't take things personal. Life is too short to argue some kind of shit!

So my request that you post some proof or give examples how you are being bullied hurt your feelings? And due to that horrible state you are in, you are not capable of providing anything? My terrible "bullying" of you came after you created this thread, remember? That means that you should have older examples of terrible insults of me and others like me against you. I hope I am not hurting your feelings by stating that.
