Vod will be back, I have no doubt about that. He was getting into needless arguments & battles with other members (not all his fault I will add).
It’s probably good for him to take some time out, recharge his batteries & come back refreshed & away from negativity.
I like him, he’s good for this place. Sometimes you just need a change of scenery & time to chill.
Come back when you’re ready Vod!

I like Vod, and I think it is a shame he got mixed up in all the reputation stuff.
The only good thing about all the reputation bitching is that you get to know who to trust, and who is a worthwhile member. This seems to be independent of the trust system.

To show how powerful vod was, it took theymos an appointment of 8 new members to fill in the shoes of vod as merit
On a serious note: new Merit sources start small, and can go up in amount if they do a good job. Vod said he didn't empty his source most of the time. The total amount sources have didn't change much, so one big source got replaced by 8 smaller ones. legendary

Oh, we should Vod the merits because someone thinks them nasty?
Come on guys, everything we do in life is subjective. Peeps must always complain. It's the unending circle of man's life - not even God has been able to satisfy mankind.

It breaks my heart by the way to see so much drama in this forum. Why can't we just chill, talk shit, enjoy the laughter like in any other mainstream forum?
I guess that it's a matter of choice.
I think that Vod simply enjoys to annoy a couple of people around here. They can fight or ignore, again, their choice.
I find all this more like 'popcorn time' than heartbreaking, sorry.

It is the previlige of a merit source to give all the smerits to a certain trusted user as theymos has allowed this so there is no reason for you OP to get jealous on the merits being rewarded to a certain user that has credibility to spread the merits.
This why there are merit source applications in the forum and I think it could be good to accept them then limit the merit allocation for every merit source or depending on jlhow ferequent and trusted a merit source could be. So the allocation of merits will still be the same but the number of merit source has to be increased to look for quality posts.

Wasn't condemning you. Like I said it's been a long time and having gone back can see why I was confused.
It was your removal from DT due to the feedback left. Seems at the time people had a much lower threshold for what they deemed appropriate use of DT feedback. At the time I may have equated that with "staff".
I also haven't looked back to confirm if Armis was a scammer, just noticed some feedback to that effect which probably gave me the impression the first time.

before Vod removed from merit source since he wanted too, i wanna know how it's feel having a shower which full of merits given by him

HAHAHAHAHAHAH. BTW you might want to wipe that brown from your nose.
Done wiping , now what's the difference?

I was actually referring to OP by that statement. Vod obviously did sent the 50 merit willingly and if the reason behind that is him being removed as a sourced then there is nothing wrong about that. It is pretty obvious that OP is trying to add up on Vod's issue and this is pretty nonsense.

It bums me out to keep seeing these topics. At first they were just annoying, but its getting pretty sad to see. I like Vod, Quickseller, and OgNasty, as well as the handful of others chiming in. Does anyone actually truly care that someone is sending a debatable amount of merits, or have you decided to make lifelong vendettas over stupid stuff that probably barely effects anyone?
If you haven't set fire to each other's houses or screwed each other's dog, is it really worth continuing bickering? It just makes the forum feel more gloomy and less unified. You all have better things to do than fight with each other online, so why keep wasting your own time? You don't need to get along, but knowing when to just ignore someone rather than expending 100 hours responding to a fired shot is a valuable skill. If you keep at it, I'm going to have to start hanging out with the spam bots to avoid pointless forum drama.

Everyone(Involved parties) ignored this post like it was never posted. There are many productive things that can be done, we are here for one purpose bitcoin is bae.
Supporting your supporter is not a bad thing. Wasting everything on them is also not good. Think, Re-think and think again. Do you want to be fair with one or all?
I'm not supporting anyone here I'm neutral.

Edit: Still a much worthy member in this forum tho than you actually do
I will say this much as I wound up looking into Techshares feedback history one weekend as I fell down the bitcointalk rabbit hole. He's been a longtime member on the forum once on staff I believe, and conducts quite a bit of Marketplace business. You don't have to agree with him to note there have been a lot of contributions.
I'd have to read more but iirc, it could be argued he made a mistake in going a bit far to catch a scammer.
I bring this up because I don't really understand why people want to make it personal here. You can easily interact and disagree with people, without it, or just ignore and move on.

I still support him anyways if that is his way getting removed from being a source then be it.
This only means that Vod isn't interested being at the top (that is what a real man does).

So this website is basically like the book Lord of the Flies.
Lol. Haven't read that one in years, but there are certain parts of it that stick out in my mind that do seem to indicate you might have a point. I would very much like to not see this forum progress to the level of brutality and anarchy that I remember from that story.It really looks like he cares about the forum, even someone who don't know him can notice that.
He does. He's obviously really pissed off right now, though as I said in another post his actions are a proxy for what he's not articulating in posts. People who are very cerebral and tend to think very logically generally don't let out their frustrations in words, e.g., an outburst or rant. They tend to act out their inner turmoil--and again, this is just from personal observations throughout my life. I gave you 10 merits for having licked the merit sauce (sic), and for not dropping a boob whilst doing it. 
Jet Cash! Haven't seen you around in a while, and I thought you might have disappeared. Glad to see you're still around. May 15, 2019, 04:23:57 PM
This wont be an abuse because Vod is part of the mafia here,if it was just a normies then that would be an abuse.If you aint belong to them you're out.
Another example of negative thinking man. Community don't allow the word "mafia" and there is nothing here on bitcointalk which seems like this. Its really interesting to hear something like that because i believe all scammers way of thinking is likely similar and on the other side all default trusted members have got the same point of view against scammers. That"s why it could look like a group or mafia for you dude.
It looks like a "mafia" to me. Am I a scammer? Here, have some ball washing polish you seem to be running out.

I first came across vod in the flat earth topic, the debates between notbatman and vod were great, hes one to always call people out on bullshit.
May 15, 2019, 02:21:53 PM
This forum obviously means a lot to him, and I say that based on posts he's made in the past.
I agree. I was really impressed when I saw his bpip website, wihich he clearly spends a lot of time bulding and making it work. It really looks like he cares about the forum, even someone who don't know him can notice that.
About 50 merit... In a few months or years those 50 merits won't make any difference.
