I wouldn't worry too much about goons, the only thing they're a danger to are bags of cheetos and poorly constructed chairs.

There might be some extremists but to judge all of them because of outliers would be silly.

I'm pretty sure people were warning against sending Bitcoins to him since he started, being one of those people and all. I changed my tune and put some coins in a pass-through after the Vegas meetup, but I'm an idiot. I'm sorry for what I said earlier in this thread, though... disingenuous trolling.

No worries. What Rudd-O fails to understand is that we have zero interest in seeing Bitcoin destroyed. It would deprieve us of the comedy gold this "community" delivers on a regular basis.  Cheesy

To be aware of the people trying to sabotage Bitcoin.
When the time they spend starts producing tangible results, lemme know.

Idk, do you mean results like exposing Bruce Wagner as a kiddy-diddling mortgage scammer, uncovering BFL executive staff's prior conviction for fraud, showing and warning how pirate was running a scam for months before he skipped off with all of your coins?
Sorry. *tangible, negative results. At any rate, they were responsible for warning and showing people Pirate was a scam?  Cheesy

We were warning against investing with him for months. Of course no one listened because everyone just saw "7% weekly interest".

FYI: Cunicula is also in my ignore list for initiating gratuitous and unprovoked personal attacks against me and others in this board. You should not trust him.

Rudd-O reminds me of El Bruto in the movie of the same name by Luis Buñuel. Sadly we haven't reached the end of the movie yet.

Ignore the troll guys. He is probably one of the SA goons masochistic enough to come here and witness how the Bitcoin he hates is becoming more and more successful.

First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they attack you, the you win.

I am in no way suggesting to argue with these malicious vandals. Just to be informed that they exist and organize against you.  You cannot reason with bullies.

Aren't you forgetting to mention that Bitcoin was added to the Highest-valued Currency article on Wiki in response to a dare on reddit - a suggestion made by a poster named trollilio - a deliberate change which could be considered "Wikipedia vandalism" itself?

http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/14rz9z/i_dare_someone_to_add_bitcoin_to_the_top_of_the/

It was added a long time ago before that post. I merely readded it.  The readdition was merely restoring content that was vandalized by being removed, and properly sourcing it. Check the change log if you doubt me.

Theirs is not dimwittery. Theirs is hostility and hate. Look at what they say -- that is not the product of simpleminded fools. Wikipedia vandalism is not a honest mistake or oversight. It is deliberate.
Fair enough, but they are obviously not smart enough to realize the potential bitcoin has (not just as a monetary system). Anyway, like all bullies, this is exactly what they want and expect - someone to argue with them. It will anger them the most if we leave them be and outsmart them in another way. When enough people know about bitcoin, they will have no choice but to give up.

Ah, I am to blame for the anti-Bitcoin hate, apparently.  It is not all these douches openly lying about Bitcoin and vandalizing Wikipedia. The problem is with me.

Sure. Aha.

I am just going to add greyhawk to my ignore list.  Presto, done.

Wikipedia user page of Rudd-O. His rude behaviour is contributing to Wikipedians anti-Bitcoin mindset.

Oh please, they aren't intelligent enough to sabotage an election never mind Bitcoin.
