Title: The New Moderated Bitcoin Forum
Post by: Bruce Wagner on August 28, 2011, 09:04:32 PM
Everyone I know is complaining about the current state of this forum.....

which has made it almost useless....

with the children who are all about vandalizing the forum with viscous comments and attacking everyone.  

So I finally decided to start a new forum again...    so we can get back to the "good old days" of discussing Bitcoin as adults...  without trolling  ( or, as I call it, forum vandalism ).

The link will remain in my signature line below.....   which is:    http://tinyurl.com/bitcoinpeople (http://tinyurl.com/bitcoinpeople)

Please come join me there for a breath of fresh air.....    Free and open discussion of All Things Bitcoin....  without all the junk posts.

Personally, I will no longer be posting in this forum.....   except to link to a post in this New forum.

I'm too much of a dick to join your forum.
I say what needs to be said (through my way of thinking), not what others want me to say (through their way of thinking).

So, what in essence you are telling us, is that you don't like most of us. Or maybe you just don't like opinions different than you're own.

Great: all of the people who have been complaining to me about being "slandered" (i.e., reasonably criticized) can go there.

Having taken a moment to read through the handful of posts on the new forum i see fights already about who's post is right and who's opinion was wrong with unexplained deletions and outright childishness

Let me see if I have this right. Bruce took his bat and both balls and left this forum to start, not one, but two new Bitcoin forums today. Is this how a leader leads? What next? Gavin starting his own ?coin because Satoshi won't come out from hiding in the closet? I'm lost for words. Simply lost for words.

If nothing else, I did find a new playground this 13 y/o can play in. It has slides, merry-go-rounds, teeter-tatters, climbing ropes, and a bunch of other neat stuff. It's called Off-Topic. Thank you, Bruce.

How about no Mr. I'm Bruce Wagner and I'm holier than thou.

This is the Bitcoin community, if you don't like it you can fuck off. No amount of moderation is going to solve us. They already tried here and look how much help that did, you will be no better.

Just because you had your little fanclub get together in NYC where you could circlejerk each other all day long doesn't mean we all think the same. In fact a lot of us think you alone are the biggest downfall of Bitcoin.

Also I have no idea how you ended up in media with your rediculous overuse of ellipsis. Every one of your posts is like reading the facebook updates of a pre-pubescent girl.

You will be lucky if more than 50 people sign up to your pathetic excuse of a forum.
You're just a pathetic troll who changes his name every 2 days,

STFU

So exactly who is the troll here, someone who posted something on topic and relevant to the conversation (Areyouawizard), or the guy who has nothing to add to the topic besides 'YEAH WELL YOU'RE A TROLL!" (you), but can't resist the urge to hit the post button?

Really?

OK, have fun in your new 'leet forum where, I must presume, only people and opinions that love you are allowed.  I guess I'm probably not invited since I never joined your fan club or fucked your sister or anything like that.

In all seriousness, personally, I'm agnostic about all this drama/witch-hunt stuff.  Lots of hyperbole and careless language flying around lately, obv., but I fail to see how these are irrelevant or frivolous topics, or popularly perceived as such, as you seem to be suggesting.  It's a guilty pleasure, perhaps, but this whole thing is pretty amusing, frankly, for those of us with sufficiently limited pecuniary and/or reputational exposure.

Anyhow, don't let the door hit you...

So I finally decided to start a new forum again...    so we can get back to the "good old days" of discussing Bitcoin as adults... so we can have a place where I run things and can delete any post that makes me look bad, so we can have discussion...  without trolling  ( or, as I call it, forum vandalism ). posting court documents from fraud cases I lost  ( or, as I call it, me hating the truth )

THERE. Fixed it for ya.

Everyone I know who was in on me with the fraud I did is complaining about the current state of this forum.....

which has made it almost useless for finding new victims to cheat out of their money....

with the children people smarter than me who are all about vandalizing educating the forum with viscous comments court records and attacking everyone me.  

Fixed it for you.

Holy fuck, Bruce, you have about as much luck with honesty as an ostrich has learning to fly.

A known scammer and fraudster gets uncovered on a popular forum and then advertises on said forum for his OWN forum. This is a joke, right? RIGHT!? :D

Bruce doesn't joke. He just lies in subtle ways.

Like lying about all the reasons he can't stay here and needs a new forum, and lying about why he wants people to go there, and of course, promising people there's a reason to go to HIS forum, just like he lied when he promised his clients he would at least try to find investors to save their homes.

Sadly, the "I made a forum" part is as true as the "I'll take your money and here, sign this contract saying you understand you don't get it back even if I don't do anything to help you" part of his scam in meatspace was.

Dear Bruce,

I tuned into "the bitcoin show" to see what comments you would be making regarding the last few days.

I discovered you're in Japan... neato. I also discovered you haven't uploaded anything since the 29th.

You know what really got to me though?

YOUR VIDEO IS STILL THE INCORRECT ASPECT RATIO!

Some may not like you due to your past, some may not like you due to the smear campaign that was lobbed at you, but I don't like you because you cant figure out how to maintain a proper, non-squished video aspect ratio.

Thanks for your time.

We got some people in there who are already in on the project, but there's a few stragglers from SA who haven't made it into the current fold. If you haven't moved over, do it now!

Newbies need not apply, we're halfway there already ;)

Ha! Yeah, this is about what I've been saying all along. When the only "problem" with Bruce was he was supposedly a pedophile or crap like that, I still had a serious problem with him as the face of Bitcoin: and it was a very legitimate one.

The guy's a completely unprofessional moron.

It was hilarious, depressing and maddening that the one episode of his show I watched, you couldn't hear anything, they couldn't figure out how to fix the audio, and ...

Their camera kept going into demo mode. So not only am I watching Bruce botch an interview, and being unable to hear anything, but I have to keep seeing a video stream that's superimposing a list of his cameras features and bells and whistles over the actual show.
