Title: 5000 posts and only a year later
Post by: Matthew N. Wright on July 19, 2012, 06:41:21 PM
I'm writing this from a bus at 3:24am. I was scrolling through the staff forum and found "error"'s original request to give me a scammer tag back when I was 3 weeks old to Bitcoin and already developing useful and interesting shit.

Anyone who reads the ridiculous thread where I was trying to purchase a GPU in Korea and didn't have bitcoins as fast as I thought and owed someone 1BTC who decided to go on a libel campaign instead of actually PM me and ask when I could pay, and how even the mods were quick to stomp on me and tell me how they'd never do business with me, no moral fiber, etc (this is actually where I first met Vladimir!), will know just how serious I have always been about developing bitcoin.

Many people know me as a troll, but I think it's time to come clean--- I've only trolled because of how much everyone trolled me when I was just an innocent and extremely interested newbie. The paranoia here from users on in these forums has jaded me something serious, and looking back at the way I typed so passionately in defense, I have a renewed spirit in being useful and making more mistakes openly.

I've heard trolls here peg me as being self important (they even think this thread is) but it's that I truly love leading, sharing ideas, building and overall being useful however possible.

I digress, I have been defending myself here since day one and have said the same thing over and over again. People seem to have a short memory though, so not as a self-promotional rant but rather as a healthy and hearty "fuck you" to all those non-believing bullies who doubted me and were so sure I was up to something, I present you as celebration of 5000 posts, a look back at when I was "born". It's really entertaining, regardless of which camp you're in.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=28004.0

I hope I can continue proving you cockwads wrong (like the 12 people who have me on ignore) year after year until you start learning that your formulas for "figuring people out" are broken.

Sorry for the ramble. I tend to ramble after midnight.


P.S. thank you senbonzakura. You changed my life in a way. So did Maged. And most definately Vladimir too.

Matthew, if you're a troll, you're the most valuable troll we've got.

Matthew, one year? Most of us are already used to Matthew Time(tm) so let me recap this for you:
1 week of 4 letter acronyms UABB, bitmoling, changing whole Korea and whatnot
1 week of bittalk.tv (see Christmas is not really a mathematical exact date)
1 week of BitcoinMagazin (sometimes a week can feel like half a year...)
Currently we are in your 4th week, waiting for the Ellet (I think this week will also feel like half a year)
So you managed 5000 posts in 3 and a half week.
Congratulation!

I'll get back to you in a week on that one.

Remind me again why this post is about you and not ONLY about bitcoin?

This needs to be moved to Off Topic IMO.

Love your work but sometimes you talk too much about yourself.

Regards

Smoothie  ;D ;D ;D

You absolutely deserved that scammer tag. Regardless of the circumstances, KeyserSoze performed work for you and then you refused to pay him as promised. You admitted to it.

I thought you'd always be an annoying troll, but I'm now glad that I didn't permaban you (your name appears awfully often in the ban requests thread...). Your recent posts/projects have been very interesting and constructive.

I was going to use the UABB analogy, but I guess aq did a better job than I would have. Well played, Matthew!

What a bunch of children, throwing toys out of the pram. LOL. And mods were the biggest bullies of the bunch with no common sense whatsoever.

But, whatever happens, does happen to the better.

Well, I did learn to be nicer to suspected scammers after that...

The great irony of this statement is that it's still here and you can continue to say it because we mods respect your right to say it.

And our decisions are not arbitrary, whether or not you are personally aware of all that we are aware.  I've seen no one get banned without cause or evidence.

Very true. And I do appreciate this.

problem was you were not just attacked/trolled for not paying that 1 BTC for logo, but also for your other ideas/ventures

every time you came up with something new you were ridiculed and mocked and look at you now , everyone buying your magazine (still didnt get mine, waiting for month now) and i am waiting for that ellet too

Tell us about how Senbonz helped you ... :) Just curious..

I gave him 1 BTC loan (from IBB ) and told him to pay me back whenever you have BTC and so the dispute was resolved , then i asked if he was a coder and we worked for a while on some projects. if i had lots of BTC, i would definitely help fund any project he had.



Aweeee...


We all love you Senbon!   :D

Now if only we could cure you of your Atlas obsession.   ;)

I knew you'd still be around.  You're too much of a pain in the ass to slink away quietly.   :P

13.69 posts a day doesn't show how smart you are.
Solving this will: √1+2√1+3√1+4

Happy 5000th  :P
