Isn't that Bruno (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=24792)?
Hasn't posted in nearly a week? Wow :D.

No, he's not banned.

The AMT people caught up with him.  He's wearing Cement shoes.

Oddly enough, I almost believe that.

Oh yeah, he pretty much gave the game away just now. It was a good run, though.

edit: nibbknot's writing style was soo much better, PG 8)

You really think he's back after BFL? I doubt it because he was rewarded handsomely for backing off. Although: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=405986.msg7531748#msg7531748

I don't get this absence. He's banned for a week and goes on a ballistic rampage all over reddit like a recovering heroin addict but now he's gone for 10 days? Maybe we should have the local popo check all the barns in French Dip, Missouri or whatever that place he lives is called.

Send for the Sandwich Police:


Although we could just ring him up...

12 days and counting.

he is question authority :D lol .. i dont know . .

Your Call has been forwarded to a voice mail.

So much for calling him.

I would expect that to happen, wouldn't you? He put his number on the web for every nut job to see. He may as well throw that phone away.

Yuh it was a derpy idea of mine.

Anyway, Phinn, if you're out there, send us a sign.

I would say he finally got captured by the FBI
But then again he probably is around here somewhere wondering who's missing him

13 days.

Hey, Al the Alpaca, if you're going to secretly use a sock like you're doing with nibbknot you should post with your main account once in awhile.

15 days now. That's got to be a record. I called the cops in Cheesesteak, Montana and let them know you're late to post on an Internet forum. I'm not sure why but they hung up on me. Hum, public servants are so rude.

Maybe he died.

Could be, he is an older gentleman. Maybe he started thinking about Davout stealing all that money from him and he grabbed his chest and hit the ground in the barn.

17 days and counting. The forum seems unnervingly peaceful now.

I worked it out. QA is quietly telling us he no longer needs his alt PG, as all the scams have been exposed, the frauds unmasked and the trolls trolled.

Every last ot thread along the lines of 'How many goats do you think this honey badger has fucked?' has been 'penned', and there need be no more wearing of pink tutus, as shawn's outport is now richer than Satoshi and Mircea combined.

gotcha

edited: misspelled coupla words to confuse google

You got me. The only thing left to do now is relax on a stack of barnwood in Grilled Cheese, Kansas.

I miss him. He's been around these forums since like forever, always posting. I wonder if he's OK. Hope so.

I did check around, didn't find any news on it. There is an obituary for Bruno Kucinskas from 2010 @age 72, probably his father, IIRC Bruno is in his 50's.

Or maybe that's not actually his real name? I found that before when I googled his name and just assumed he'd appropriated the moniker for himself. It would be pretty ballsy to give your real name and address out on here when you do what he does. Maybe somebody paid him off to not troll or that black guy that apparently beat up his cousin or whatever she was caught up with him? He's mentioned he has several alt accounts and that they're known to others, so has he stopped posting from them too?

No, that's his real name. I met him at conference and he may be a few degrees off center but he didn't seem like a liar. He doesn't seem to have much fear either or care for what other people think. I actually kind of admire that about him. I'm not sure if that makes him nuts or brave. I don't think anyone caught up with him or paid him not to post (other than BFL). I'm sure he's fine. I do think there are two socks he's been posting with. That's kind of the reason for this thread. I wanted to say something that would irritate him into responding. So far that hasn't worked very well.

There are two things driving you crazy Bruno and I know what they are. You aren't going to solve either one of them. What's gone is gone.

nibbknot and ...?

That's got to be him. Phrases like the bees knees and the excessive use of images convinced me. He's also pretty knowledgable for a newbie.

At least he's okay.

Sorry, I just saw this. I don't think it's a good idea for some random stranger from the internet to go by his house even if we do know where it is. I'm sure he's fine. Thanks for volunteering though. That was very nice.

Why is someone considered a troll when they consistently speak their mind?   or is he just a really good troll that doesn't really believe half of the things he says and just posts to stir things up?

Meh, don't get hung up on a word. Anyone that bombs a thread off topic is considered a troll. Usually when Bruno tries to stir up shit he has a good reason.

The problem isn't that his heart isn't in the right place it's that he is such a serial poster that even when he's trying to help no one listens. He also has a feeling and starts a research project on someone or some company and instead of gleaning through his research to post only the relevant parts he posts everything as he's researching. There could be a good reason for doing it that way. He may not trust his own eyes and want more people looking at it to help him. I read through his company Dox threads looking for anything he may have missed. Sometimes I find nothing and I tell him he's nuts. That doesn't mean I don't appreciate him doing the research for me. I have used his info to avoid doing business with some companies. In a way, I guess you could say he's saved me some money in the past.

I wonder if he really did go with an altcoin, as he threatened in his last post.

I'd say someone like PG is definitely needed in this community. Loud, in your face, and not afraid to show himself but still remaining relevant to the topic. I will admit when I first started reading through his posts, I thought he was just f***ing with people but if you read the content and try to interpret the point he's trying to make (and it sometimes isn't obvious), he seems to typically bring up good points worth discussing.

He can sometimes get into the TL;DR group, but I don't mind that as much as others seem to.

Posting whatever you think may be relevant for exposing scams, con-artists, liars, cheats, thieves and all sorts of other undesirables does not give you free license to also post offensive, racist, sexist etc. pointless personal abuse as well.

No indeed. We have that license anyway, except for the pointless part, which isn't allowed.

He takes every chance he can get to stand up on a soap box and start preaching to the community.  Rather than deal with any issues he has in an easy fashion he will try to make a mountain out of a molehill.

Maybe you should go and ask Hazard? He normally stays in the 'alt currency' section this time of year. That's not even a insult to Hazard, just saying he might know where he is.

 MnW started his bizarre behavior years ago. Matt would set him on someone and watch him go crazy drumming shit up. They used to run around the forum together like they were dating. After Matts permaban Bruno just never seemed to stop. He's been worse lately since he was allegedly ripped off by Davout. Every time he posts in a thread now it seems at the end of the post is, "Instawallet ripped me off, Davout's a thief". Bla, bla

Almost gone for one month. I wonder if he'll be avoiding the conventions too?
