Title: Eh? Market manipulation? Post by: Oldminer on July 05, 2011, 01:09:18 AM Topic removed: Bitcoin has flatlined
Bitcoin Forum A topic you are watching has been removed by theymos. Regards, The Bitcoin Forum Team. --------------------------------------------- Why? We had a good discussion going there? What say you all - is this an atempt at market manipulation at the expense of open speech? Discuss Title: Re: Eh? Market manipulation? Post by: Etlase2 on July 05, 2011, 01:11:25 AM My posting privileges were revoked (and posts deleted) simply because I spoke eloquently and vehemently against bitcoin, so really you can't expect too much around here.
Title: Re: Eh? Market manipulation? Post by: DamienBlack on July 05, 2011, 01:13:27 AM Probably an overzealous attempt to quell "trolls", not market manipulation.
Although, I will admit that bear-trolls are censored more often than bull-trolls. Probably because most long term members that believe in bitcoin have said many things that seem bull-trollish. It seems more plausible that bulls are posting on good faith, and not just trying to cause a commotion. I'm not sure if I agree with that logic, but there it is. Title: Re: Eh? Market manipulation?

Title: Re: Eh? Market manipulation? Post by: theymos on July 05, 2011, 01:19:01 AM There were too many junk threads speculating about the value (in the wrong section, too). I also removed one about higher values.
If your thread talks about the BTC value and is less than a few paragraphs long, I may delete it. I find these to be worthless. Title: Re: Eh? Market manipulation? Post by: CNMOH on July 05, 2011, 01:19:14 AM oh hey look, relegated to a forum no one visits Why shouldn't it be moved to the appropriate forum? This thread isn't discussing bitcoin.Title: Re: Eh? Market manipulation? Post by: KeyserSoze on July 05, 2011, 01:25:22 AM I also noticed some other thread where a moderator admitted to censoring posts where he felt insulted. The irony in this freedom-loving community's flagship forum is surprising. Guess what boys and girls? The brave new world of crypto-currency is just like the old world when the shine wears off.

Thanks for the explanation however we did have a very interesting discussion going and it would have been better if it had been moved to a more appropriate forum rather thanbe deleted. Title: Re: Eh?
