Title: the hallowed ground of the sacred/ascended satoshi Post by: jubalix on March 29, 2013, 12:57:32 AM ok so i looked up satoshi as user, and it was kinda cool to see his threads/replys
i decided to reply in one, and realise this sorta sully's the historical record...and I felt kinda hard to explain, like it was a bit sacrilegious/profaneing holy ground vibe. then some mod/ mod bot deleted it and i was informed by PM i accept the importance of the Historical records and the policy of making new contemporaneous threads. However, the fact I felt the vibe of treading on hallowed ground, and that it was deleted, is in a way dangerous, it leads to a cult of satoshi, which is not the way to go. I think a historical version of satoshi should be made but let people comment in particularly his threads as a means to combat a "religion/cult" of Satoshi developing. It must be more like a museum and living record, as well as having a historical record, which you could easily create. There is enough "mystery around satoshi" as it is and BTCtalk, has a kind of priesthood going replete with symbols eg. it has the special platinum membership coins... I'm just not sure its in the best interests of the community to fuel the fire. Anyway I think you can have the best of both worlds, a backed up no mod historical version and a typed in reply version, that this would be a good idea to let people reply in those threads of the live version....to avoid the cult of satoshi developing Title: Re: the hallowed ground of the sacred/ascended satoshi Post by: kjj on March 29, 2013, 01:09:25 AM Just don't post in long dead threads, regardless of who started them or posted in them. Basic courtesy, not a cult.

Basic courtesy, not a cult. I accept your advice and view in general.... but maybe their needs to be a separate satoshi area, to demystify it all Title: Re: the hallowed ground of the sacred/ascended satoshi Post by: candoo on March 29, 2013, 02:47:49 AM Satoshis postings here are very nostalgia and important. I read almost all of them and its soo on intresting how things worked out
Title: Re: the hallowed ground of the sacred/ascended satoshi Post by: mindtomatter on March 29, 2013, 03:16:35 AM I agree, they're there for context - A unique glimpse into the daily mundane, procedural discussion that led to the implementation of the Bitcoin protocol as we know it.
It's not nostalgia, it's context for developers who build on top.

Long may Lord Nakamoto give us our daily Bitcoin. He who forks the chain maliciously shall suffer the wrath. But all is forgiven by the merciful Satoshi when the client is patched and order restored in the realm. Actually what is the link to Satoshi's username with post history? I'd like to go through and read some of the original posts.

When He returns, you will surely be punished for your heresy.
