Well to be very fair Theymos openly admitted he was in fact literally Stalin well over a year ago.

 I even gave him feedback over it which is still there today  Grin

Well it looks as if they have cleaned up the discussion board, which is great. Smiley

Oh I'd be happy if that happens, probably belongs in Service discussion(considering this thread is nothing more than undeserved promotion for forxx.bitcoin.com



I don't think it's a service, the appropriate board is this one  'Meta'.  However if you don't like this censorship you can always leave.
True but the discussion is mainly focused on a specific service rather than the forum itself.


Report the thread to a mod (maybe grue is online).




PS: my comment "However if you don't like this censorship you can always leave." was for @RawDog  (but I think you knew it).

Maybe instead of negative trust for what if, we could just link to this other forum.
Sounds like a win win.

Jayzus another bullshit thread promoting the forum where anyone can become a mod, one being an old gambler who beg-scammed a lot of other individuals

Bitcoin's biggest attribute is anti-censorship.
Just because the staff in your forum doesn't give a f*ck about what is an altcoin and what is not, doesn't make it anti-"censored".

Want me to show you the way out?

The censorship here is just shocking.  This forum is controlled by stalin.  
Thanks Theymos

You finally found me out. I am literally Stalin. Bitcoin is secretly a communist conspiracy to take over the world. The glorious worker's paradise of the USSR will reign once more!

So not true.  Theymos/Blockstream is doing everything imaginable to control the topic and conversation - and ultimately the very nature of bitcoin.  This is very different than not wanting to host someone stupid shit.  Listen, I am king of stupid shit and that stupid shit stays on the front page all the time.  Any topic related to Blockstream assholes trying to own bitcoin gets turfed in one minute.
This is completely false; else why would there be an "appreciation" thread on the second page in Bitcoin Discussion (there's probably more but I'd have to waste time digging)?

I don't know whether theymos is involved in Blockstream (I doubt it), but I can tell you that he does not do the cleaning here (maybe sometimes, but very rarely). The moderators independently interpret the current list of rules and act accordingly.

In other words, if you had any valuable input that is not based on nonsense/trolling your posts/threads would remain where they are. The forum that you've suggested is horrible.

What tells you that this is not going to happen in that forum as-well ? I'm pretty sure that it will , even if it's not now , It will sooner or later .
Whoever controls that forum will try to impose his point of view one day and people will have to deal with it so I don't think switching to another forum will solve anything .

The censorship here is just shocking.  One bad word about Blockstream and you are fukced.  There is no open discussion in this forum.  This forum is controlled by stalin.  Time to move to https://forum.bitcoin.com/  Please migrate as soon as possible.  Copy your threads and participate on that site.

Bitcoin's biggest attribute is anti-censorship.  Very ironic that it is controlled by Blockstream idiots who live by censorship.  This thread will be wiped in two minutes. 

Thanks Theymos
