Him stepping away from btc (at least in any public sense) can only help the community as a whole.

If a thief finds a new calling in life where they can help people, instead of continuing to hurt them like they used to, and you take that away from them, the ONLY thing you will accomplish is making that thief desperate enough to return to hurting others. If Bruce is as horrible as you say he is, I'd much rather have him host a harmless interview show than actively trying to figure out how to scam us out of our Bitcoins.

Uhh, yes. Bruce Wagner will only be a sleezy, law-breaking ~~mortgage~~ bitcoin scammer because he found a new calling, but then decided after being harassed on the internet it's time to rape and pillage. Yes. Yes, you're right. Bruce is a wonderful man turned bad by hell-borne internetspeak. God save his soul. Maybe you should donate a few BTC to help him on his righteous way?

Off topic, but, was just following the SA thread and saw something interesting, decided this was the best way to get a message back over there, without paying $10.

@goons looking at Bitcoins for Charity, check again. There's an easter egg somewhere there, too. (Also, a disclaimer, we are not a charity and do not accept Bitcoins or cash on behalf of anyone. We only list charities that accept Bitcoins on their own behalf. What Devian666 did is exactly what we do.)

I guess nobody can have a late payment on a credit card ( that is money ) , been sent to jail before , been cited with several parketing tickets and deal with bitcoins?

thats a far cry from conning over $100k from people in a mortgage scam.

my point remains that a convicted scammer should not be the defacto face of bitcoin. not if there is any hope of it being successful.

yeah, b/c its just mortgage fraud.....who the fuck cares about that right? he scammed 74 people according to the judgement. 74.

but thats ok b/c he didnt use btc?

a scammer is a scammer no matter what currency you are using at the time.

Nobody is saying its ok but you are proving my point . I guess nobody can have a late payment on a credit card ( that is money ) , been sent to jail before , been cited with several parketing tickets and deal with bitcoins? You have to have a clean record in order to use bitcoins because SA says so are you are labeled.

convicted in civil court. this has all been gone through before on a bunch of other threads. next time search for yourself.

looks like that has nothing to do with bitcoins? I'm unaware he has been convicted for being a bitcoin scammer? can you point to an article?

yes if you are a convicted scammer, i dont think you have any business trying to be the face of bitcoins.

those willing to defend a scammer are just as bad as the scammer themselves.

nobody is defending him ... SA is not a "jury" I hate to inform you. Let him have his day in court and leave it at that instead we have children coming on this board posting the same crap over and over how is a "fucking scammer" blah,blah

I am not coming to the defense of SA, but the only way to get trolled is to let yourself be trolled. Several of the goons have resorted to trolling (Yes, some of them are just trolls.) as a last resort, after participating in the community here and seeing that fraudulence and unprofessionalism occurs, most of the time without ramification. What most of them have to say is based on real concern and should be taken into consideration (in silence, you don't have to press reply!) and meditated on, EVEN IF THEY ARE JUST PLAYING DEVIL'S ADVOCATE TO TROLL YOU.

Do your own due diligence before entering into ANY sort of obligation, not just financial contracts. Acting in this accord is not only beneficial to us as a Bitcoin community, it is beneficial to yourself as a human being, businessperson, or whatever. Be aware, be constantly vigilant!

if there were court documents that backed up the statement, then yes. most likely.

secondly, ill do whatever the fuck i want. if you dont like it, you can go hatefuck a bucket of razors.

then stfu when other people are going to "do what they want" then also. So everyone here who has had a court document and deals with bitcoins isn't worthy of bitcoins - go fuck off idiot moron.

hes still a fucking scammer, the fact he was tricked this time by a member of SA doesnt change that fact....after all, SA had nothing to do with the mortgage scam he was running.

he killed his own credibility with his actions.

and your mother is a whore does it make it true ? seriously, stop defending SA goons. They are to blame for a lot of SHIT going on around here!

They're not related. With SA's history of internet detectivity, they uncovered a lot about Bruce Wagner's background before this stupid restaurant thing. Ignore the address (SA after all), it's actually a pretty legit look into Wagner.

I know all that, but how did THIS

http://buttcoin.org/has-bruce-wagner-pulled-off-the-financial-biggest-scam-on-the-bitcoin-community

make the SA goons trolling Bruce into THIS

"can we all agree to stop defending bruce now?"
"If mr. Wagner tells you anything, don't believe it unless you can validate it for yourself. He's lost his credibility."
"If you believed Bruce on this, than let this be a lesson for you. "
"Why do people still listen to Bruce or have anything to do with him?"

I know I'm beating a dead horse, but I'm just not following the "being trolled by someone is more proof that you're a liar/scammer" line of thought.
Meh, whatever.

I've gotten an inkling of something going on that's verrrrry interesting. I think they're actually the ones collaborating to manipulate the market, but not in order to crash it -- they just want to create false volatility so they can make money at short-term speculation. Think about it: all the recent market drama happens at the same time as bitcoin community drama? It's a little too tidy. I just wonder how many times they'll do their pump/dump/crash/buy cycle before they get bored and the price goes back to its normal, naturally increasing trajectory.

i highly fucking doubt that. try harder.

I love how their topic went from being a comedy thread, and quickly turned into an investment thread. Lol, I actually think that was what was behind all the recent attacks.

I think you're closer to the truth than you realize here. I'm a noob over there (I joined just to participate in their bitcoin thread), so I'm not hip to all of their lingo and inside references, but I've gotten an inkling of something going on that's verrrrry interesting.
