Where did theymos say that Jeff Garzik must be killed? The policy on Bitcoin reddit is clear, any altcoin discussion doesn't belong in the Bitcoin reddit, specially if it's XT 2.0. This should be pretty clear in 2016 to be honest.

"kill" in a methaphoric sense  ;)

Good explanation. First is written - kill - without quotes and without metaphoric sense. Then after someone who have doubts or simply want facts about this big revelation don't find nothing and refer this become the "kill" with quotes and its metaphoric sense. Now, reading the above post and the one before it, I want to ask that from the author of two posts before can be understood that there is not even the "kill" with quotes and in the metaphoric sense. In other words there is any kill in any place. Practically there is nothing. My question is: why needed to invent such kind of bombastic threads without any sense and meaning? For more with a main post which don't tell nothing and have not any kind of connection with the title of the thread.  ???

AFAIK this account (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=541) is the one you are talking about(correct me if I am wrong).In that case he was demoted recently or looong ago, or wasn't a mod at all and you are making stuff up.
Mayne shills are upping this "issue" too much lately, going as far as abusive trolling, I feel dem bans coming
Edit: Seems the only(positive) feedback he has given is to a scammer, but hey he did trade with the person

There is no official this, official that.

The longest chain wins. If the network can use it and vote on it, its not an altcoin. Its a choice.

If it was , we wouldn't be having this nor the half other rants going in on the Bitcoin discussion, all discussing about XT and other crap

I think the OP was just making a play on the whole Core vs. XT censorship ramblings being rambled about.  Sorta like saying, "There's the heretic, get him!"  I don't know....but after the Hearn's resignation statement on medium...things are starting to seem a little dicey!

BTW might not have gotten theymos' sense of humor but isn't he supporter of Classic too?
As a firm supporter of Bitcoin Classic, I am honored to be a moderator of the official Bitcoin Classic subreddit (https://www.reddit.com/r/BitcoinClassic/).

I am however disappointed that smartfbrankings changed my original sidebar text (http://imgur.com/7A2Fohx).

Thanks. I am still learning those technical factors... i have no experience with coding and stuff, so i am a slow learner on this topic...

:) I hope the project goes forth. On your opinion, Bitcoin Classic is have the best proposal for the future of the BTC network?

 :'(  Bitcoin is what theymos says it is.   :'(

Try harder to blame theymos for XT's failure to thrive.  I really like it when you do that.

Does it upset you when xtnodes.com and most XT hosts got hit with 20Gb of DDOS?  Mmmm, that's too bad.  Tell me more how about how it hurt your feelings.

How disappointed where you when NotBitcoinXT and PseudoNode literally made a mockery of the first, and only significant, Gavinista vanity fork?  Ooooh yes, share all of your frustration and anguish!

Maybe this is not the correct thread to do this post but I don't want to open e new thread about this matter because it would be full of guesses and I cannot be able again to have answer about what I want to know. While here is discussed about both bitcoins and can made posts people who may be able to give right and correct answer about my quesion. Exist someone here who can explain clearly the difference between the bitcoin core and the bitcoin classic (and if possible even with Chinese bitcoin with 8 or more MB block size). What is this essential difference between these "bitcoins" which caused such big division between the team of the core developers of bitcoin? Why is so important only 1 MB difference and which is the power of this 1 MB in the size of the block which has caused such division and all this confusion between them who follow bitcoin and "fight" for it? Can anyone convince me with arguments which kind of bitcoin I must follow? Giving the facts about this my probable choice. Thanks if someone will answer.

All the details are in my post. If you cannot understand it please don't answer. Someone who know to answer and give the right answer understand all from my words written at my above post. I have any aim to offend you telling the previous words. Sorry if you will understand my words in such way. I wrote those only to make you understand that who know the answer don't need more explanations than those given at the quoted post by you. If you don't know what to tell reading my above post then you will do guesses I and have hundred of those in my mind. So have no need for more. Sorry if these my words will seems rude to you. I can assure you that have nothing to do personally with you. And it is not this my aim. Only that I want ONLY ONE FULL post which can give to me full explanations about my post. Nothing else.

Bitcoin is what theymos says it is.

Core is the alt.  The original bitcoin did not have 1MB block size limit.  Get back to the original - no limit.

Wait, theymos said "if miners misbehave, POW algo might be replaced", so voting seems as not a option...

I will paraphrase sarcastically, if majority of people misbehave they have to be replaced as well...

Actually 32 MB, but your right it was meant as just software limit, so no limit fits the original plan much better...

of course I am right!  we need to get back to the original and stop the non-sense with Core's artificial coin

A bit off topic: The current number of Classic nodes is stagnant at around 2200+-... I guess we need to see the actual increase in the Classic nodes and miners to move forward. Just adding more names to the list is not going to help I guess...
