You guys are fun to mess around with, which is good today, the blades and belt on my mower decided to die simultaneously, so I have a little extra time.
Lauda, you seem to be sticking to two main points, which is good.
1. You call the developer shady, and accuse them of trust farming.
- OK, let's take a look at that. Crypto-rainbow is their front person on this forum, and that is who you are referencing,
correct me if I am wrong. Ok, now, provided I am not wrong, they had, until you, negged their trust rating, a neutral
rating. You negged their neutral rating over your belief that DeepONION is a scam. They mentioned this occurring in the
ANN for DeepONION and what could be done to correct that. They have not bribed / offered / or compensated anyone for
their actions. I think if a forum member is still using the default trust table, they will still show a negative rating on Crypto-
rainbow.
Personally, if I am going to trust farm, I'm going to be more pro-active about it.[/left]
2. You claim to have debunked a fallacy that the "airdrop" is not truly an "airdrop".
- Well, I bet you could have guessed this, but I have an opinion on that too, lol. I may debunk that the sky is blue by calling
it cerulean. That does not make it any less blue or any more cerulean. That just points out the subjectivity of the person viewing the sky. On definitions, of words / phrases like airdrop, etc. in the cryptocurrency environment, generally
speaking, the accepted definition is the one in most use and that is usually the one in first use. If we accept that is
usually the case, then derivatives of those new terms / phrases are acceptable in conversation. Like in the '80s, when
"bad" was actually meant to be "good". Perhaps you would have liked it more if DeepONION claimed, "Free Modified
AirDrop with Forum-Wide Signature Campaign", but that is, though accurate, a little long.[/left]
Ok, now, I have addressed what seems to be the two main points that you have linked in previous posts with me. I'm fairly certain, though I am biased towards my own opinion, that I have been truthful in my observations and accurate in my analysis.
Moving away from your points, it seems, from your history here, that you have been successful, kudos to you on that. It also seems that you aren't on the staff of this forum any longer, due to some alleged misconduct and that resulted in a call from some members to have you removed. I did say alleged and for all I know it could all be heresay. I am giving you the benefit of a doubt there. I don't know the inner workings of all the forums in's and out's, but, I'm working off an assumption, that "Lauda" was placed on the default trust table in conjunction with, or maybe even as a result of you being a staff member. "Lauda" is no longer a staff member, then why did they remain on the default trust list where with the click of a mouse, they can single-handedly alter the regular forum members view of another member? Point of information on that, if you type ~Lauda into your trust settings box, and remove the default trust there, then magically crypto-rainbow no longer has a negative trust.
I'm pretty cynical about currencies, I think that since the loss of the gold-standard, the US Dollar is a scam in a way, depends on how you define scam. So, you may be right, and if it's proven so, then I'll publicly state that, and all who care can see the statement I made. The longer I live the more mistakes I will make, can't avoid that and might as well admit them. It is your choice if you wish to do the same, and if you don't think that is fair, I am sure you will let me know

**I see in your last post that you have chosen to use ad-hominem attacks in place of serious reasonable debate. You did this when you tried to impugn my intelligence. There is an old saying that when one side stoops to ad-hominem attacks, they've lost, because they have nothing left.***
