Trolling = everything you'd rather sweep under the rug?

$2+ MILLION in BTC laundered through a shell company, for an unfinished, non-functional forum is a non-issue?



Is it an issue for you? Was it your money? Have you ever donated to the forum?  Grin
But that's not really trolling, is it?  I don't have any stake here, so I'm just playing devil's advocate.  The above, if true, definitely sounds like a concern for people who do business on this forum.  Yeah, I'd say that.

I think he was trolling, not only regarding that post but about all his 'activity' here.

So "trolling" is basically "I don't like what he's saying, he must have ulterior motives"?
Because of that, it's perfectly reasonable to archive a month+ thread, and change a 14-day ban to a permaban?
To quote minifrij, "Now where did I put my tinfoil hat..."



I'm not what decides the rules here, so I cannot help you at all but it seems that there are other reasons about your ban.

No, my sig spamming friend, accounts get banned to shut them up and make the issue disappear.
Duh.
Now where did I put my tinfoil hat...

I expect you were seen as trolling due to your unwillingness to accept when you were given valid explanations as to why theymos spent the money on what he did, and gave vague explanations as to what you were talking about expecting others to understand when they questioned what you meant.
You were probably nuked due to ban evasion, though I'm not sure that this is too fair. In the means of as little censorship as possible I think the thread should have stayed up regardless. Also am I wrong or have previous ban evaders not been nuked (E.G karlb187), simply had their new accounts banned in addition to their old ones?

Let's put off looking for your tinfoil hat for a bit. Let's start with a hypothetical:

1. I'm paying a company 2+ million dollars to build me a car, from scratch.
2. I'm doing this because I have nebulous, unstated issues with production cars.
3. Caveat: The  company I've commissioned has never engineered a car. Though it has manufactured a mud pie, so no reason to assume it couldn't make a great car.
4. Caveat: I never met anyone from said company in person.
5. Caveat: I've never defined the terms of a contract, leaving it open-ended, with no penalty clauses for late/noncompletion.

6. Caveat: Production cars are free and open-source. For instance, here.


So now you know how I spent 2 (and counting, Slackage is still getting paid) million dollars.
And then Anon comes and tells you I didn't really do any of that, or, rather, I sort'a did, but not for the stated reasons.
Wat do?

[For anyone confused, looks like one of the troll's accounts that was being used to discuss things in this thread was - rightly - nuked, meaning his points aren't visible.]

Are you that troll who has created hundreds of accounts? I think the one who authored an article asking for you to get unbanned. Sorry I don't remember the handle of your account and really can't be bothered to look it up

Are you that slimeball who got caught escrowing for yourself? Sorry I don't remember and really can't be bothered to look it up

Another newbie account, what a surprise. If you guys think you are doing the right thing why are you hiding under your alt accounts created a few days ago? If you want to get the ''feds'' on his ass then do it, posting shit in the meta section of this forum is definitely not going to do anything.

Because the accounts get banned?
Do you even bother reading before you start to type?

And why do you think they get banned, sherlock? Because non sense trolling? If you guys were actually saying anything of value you wouldn't get your accounts banned but you know you are just trolling and that's why you make new accounts

@dogie: what is it about alt accounts that rubs you the wrong way?

You're complying about a ban on a 30 post alt account which has no significance or value to you, and won't harm you in the slightest.

Relevance?
Would my having donated to this forum have made a difference re. my ban?


It seems a problem for you, I'm not talking about the ban ... I'm talking about this <<$2+ MILLION in BTC laundered through a shell company, for an unfinished, non-functional forum is a non-issue?>>

I'm considering getting the Feds on his ass, any clearer now?
When you do shady shit, the trick is not to make shitloads of people pissed off, which is what's happening now. You might think you're doing a favor for your buddy, but, in reality, just digging a deeper hole.

@dogie: what is it about alt accounts that rubs you the wrong way?

@mexxer-2 "Temp-ban eh? Must've done something to invoke the admins."
The posts I made today have not been deleted, read them in my user profile & decide for yourself. This Doggie is just another one of theymos' sycophants, eager to help. Ignore him, he don't know shit.

Trolling= whatever the mod handling either a report/seeing your posts', definition of trolling is.
At any rate, were you perma-banned(Work of a Glob Mod) or temp(admin)?
In that case, why even pretend that there are rules on this forum? Why not simply say "mods will do whatever the fuck they want" & call it that?
14 days.

Those are guidelines, which mods/admins follow, although not strictly, as they may have their own opinion on the matter, if it breaks the rule.

He wasn't even permabanned, he was using an alt account so it doesn't even matter. Look, he's made a new one already.
Well discussing your ban from an alt is fine.
