Title: The latest Pro-BFL mod edit at bitcointalk
Post by: Micon on February 23, 2013, 06:16:33 PM
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=135914.0

just skip pages 10-17ish.  You can tell this is a betting thread in marketplace-> gambling. 

Josh Zerlan shows up out of nowhere and starts insulting me.  But the moment you fight back vs. Inaba or BFL in general, a mod comes to their rescue, all the while allowing the BFL user to basically do whatever they want.

Censorship at it's finest.

This is excessive.

Not at all.  The bumping is being done by a 3rd party company in California, and no BFL reps are over there.  How could they expect to take pictures of the process or the chips?


Are you under the assumption Bryan is rational and able to think above a 2nd grade level?  That would be your first mistake if so... Bryan is emotionally and mentally at the stage of "The wold revolves around me and I will throw a fit when people don't do what I think they should do." (This is the same stage most 8 - 10 year old are at)  Just check out his conspiracy theories about how there's a world wide cabal of people working to stymie his reddit posts.

How's that investigation going Bryan, did you uncover anything yet?  You have yet to answer Bryan.  Are you so incompetent that you can't uncover any evidence of a scam from someone who you believe is an idiot or are you so gullible that you know you are being manipulated and can't do a thing to stop it? 



I can only imagine what the harmonious home life of Josh Zerlan is like,  I'm sure it involves mostly green tea, meditation, and Oprah's Master Class on DVR.

Here is a talking point:

 Butterfly Labs refuses to take digital pictures of their ASIC chips, now in the USA.  Josh Zerlan cites oddities like "BFL reps are not on site," as if the not 1 person in the bumping facility has a smartphone.  How can customers accept the fact that there are 0 pictures of the super-mining chips, 1 week after they arrived at the facility?

And this is why you are a failed poker player and not running a successful business.  You are simply unable to understand simple concepts, which is a prerequisite to being able to function in every day society, something you clearly have not mastered yet.

By the way Bryan, how's that investigation going, did you uncover anything yet?  You have yet to answer this, Bryan.  Are you so incompetent that you can't uncover any evidence of a scam from someone who you believe is an idiot or are you so gullible that you know you are being manipulated and can't do a thing to stop it? 



[doing this reply in Josh Zerlan style]

Everyone with 1/3 brain knows that Josh Zerlan is a pedophile.   I personally would never do business with an un-educated kid toucher like Josh Zerlan, but if you guys want to place a pre-order, it's proven beyond a reasonable doubt that he is involved in child pornography and animal torture.  That's on you if you buy from him.

What's a matter big boy?  can't bet me 20 coins on your own words?   or does BFL only pay you once per scam at the end? Do you not have the mental capacity of a third grader to understand how I offered you a bet based on your own stupid, liar words from your stupid, liar mouth?   Oh, i get it, you are going to play the big-shot, try and push internet kids around and get them to buy your fan boxes, then talk shit to anyone who puts up a legitimate argument.  

All my words are truth without proof to back them up, and all your words are false even though you do back them up with facts and links and proof.

That is a clear example of trolling. You were making ridiculous statements just to cause drama.

So let me see if I have this right: you called Inaba a mentally disabled animal torturing pedophile, and now you're whining about unfair treatment from the moderators?

I think what this does do is highlight the double standard for posting rules over BFL reps and regular users.


One that has been confirmed by a board mod in no uncertain terms.

The premise was if BFL wants to dig themselves a verbal hole then to allow it.  Considering their position as a merchant I'm fine with that line of thinking.
(To be fair the last time I saw Josh post something truly trollish was awhile ago.)



But do not be surprised to see snap judgments of 'censorship,' being claimed.

As tactic goes, the post Theymos deleted didn't help anyway. It responded to something akin to "Micon sucks at life!", which is a rather ridiculous argument to support one's own credibility. I don't think there is much reason to get angry about this.

That was a little over the line, try to take it down a notch or two. That post probably would've been fine without the first few sentences.

Meh, not really BFL specific. Josh is just the most visible one so gets attention, there are lots of good examples of brash, rude and aggressive "business" posters who often go without being moderated because the majority of their posts do contain some information about whatever. Responding to call him a pedo is just childish and unnecessary.

When the BFL situation becomes more clear over the next month or two (4-6 weeks  ::)) I'll sleep better knowing that everyone had all the information BFL cared to post (rude or not, or "alternate account"), and were able to make their own decisions based on the contents.

Sorry Micon, but I'm not seeing "pro-BFL" involved here.  I criticise BFL all the time.

There are so many legitimate grounds on which the company and individual staff members can be criticised that I don't understand why you feel the need to play the pedo card.  If you're going to do that, then you do so at your own peril and by god you'd better provide some compelling evidence because you're essentially begging for people to dismiss your other accusations if you can't prove that one.

All you need to do is to start up your own ASIC manufacturing business and the mods will stop censoring your posts  ;)

perhaps the tactics aren't PRO BFL but ANTI-MICON?
