You knew you were buying carded gift cards. Not to mention your intent to re-sell the stolen gift cards. I might care about this if I wanted to help out shady people but I don't. Maybe deal with better people and you wouldn't get scammed.

I've tagged the account because it certainly isn't a trustworthy account but I can't say for sure if it was hacked, stolen, or sold.
1104  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Lauda/TMAN/minifrij extortion attempt on: April 03, 2017, 07:03:34 PM
The raw facts that QS posted seemed accurate but I just didn't have the same interpretations or draw the same conclusions.
No, they are most certainly not facts. Whilst I am not going to waste my time debunking the whole thread, especially not considering the time passed since the event, here's one example:
Quote
Immidiately prior to sending this 'extortion message' Lauda (and upon information and belief, others) was (were) badgering zeroaxl about his alleged criminal activity.
This is a blatant lie. If my memory serves me correctly, I had sent zero messages to Zeroxal prior to the 'string message' itself (at least not within that month; e.g. we had a trade a long time ago).
I don't really see the example you listed as a fact but more hearsay or opinion because I did not see anything solid to really back that particular statement up. I'm primarily referring to the links and archive information that had been posted as being the closest set of factual data that could be explored (I explored more than this, but that data was I guess what I would call my starting point), I certainly try to comprehend these opinions and take them into account but I don't normally accept them as fact unless I find or see adequate proof. Not that this statement would have altered my conclusions anyway...

As for wasting your time, IMO time itself should not make this go away or be any less relevant, the facts should do that. I realize I'm late on this thread, for various reasons, but felt the need to respond with an explanation of why I didn't feel right leaving a negative rating.
1105  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Lauda/TMAN/minifrij extortion attempt on: April 03, 2017, 02:24:00 PM
This thread is disturbing but I would have liked to see an actual transaction as more solid proof that Lauda wasn't just bluffing to bring a scammer out into the open. If it was a bluff for entrapment, it is not extortion, even though I don't agree with the behavior. For me it seems like speculation as to what would or could have happened and just having speculation doesn't make it easy marking a person negative for extortion who appears to put a good amount of time and effort into helping the community and people in general.
There is no evidence as the claims in the OP are falsified (e.g. minifrij's involvement). Oh yes, you and I had decent disagreements in the past (I saw your post before you edited it). Tongue
The raw facts that QS posted seemed accurate but I just didn't have the same interpretations or draw the same conclusions. It was certainly an extortion attempt but what the motive actually was means something to me in this situation, regardless of motive, I do think this type of behavior is distasteful. As for the edit, I didn't think all of that was relevant to get into with this thread and I wanted to try and remain as neutral as I could. I have nothing to hide here though, if anyone wants to know my gut feelings about our past, I will tell them - as I have in the past. I don't know you personally so all I have to go on is past experiences but I wanted to try and look at this accusation with a clear head. I do also question the motives of QS but I would never want him to stop posting his beliefs.

I want to publicly say that I strongly disagree with the removal of negative ratings against Lauda/TMAN.

In the case of Lauda, this is not the first time that he has been accused of extorting someone, and AFAICT, the claims that zeroaxl was evading taxes/engaging in illegal activity were baseless. What could be reasonably confirmed however was that zeroaxl has/had a large amount of BTC, and had the resources to pay an extortion payment in order to prevent an invasive police investigation.

The first "extortion attempt" didn't seem legitimate to me.

This thread is disturbing but I would have liked to see an actual transaction as more solid proof that Lauda wasn't just bluffing to bring a scammer out into the open. If it was a bluff for entrapment, it is not extortion, even though I don't agree with the behavior. For me it seems like speculation as to what would or could have happened and just having speculation doesn't make it easy marking a person negative for extortion who appears to put a good amount of time and effort into helping the community and people in general.

I agree with the Staff removal and would be fine leaving a negative feedback if I had better evidence of actual extortion but I don't see it.

@ibminer
If you don't care to be on an ignore list, why you are getting so upset?
My list is like a service for people, who feel annoyed by a few sig spammers, who are actually responsible for more than 95% of the newer postings. Dannies list is not only treating sig spam, but also insulting people, general spam, trolling and some other bad habits, which I, for myself also don't want to see here. This is why I also find Dannies list very useful.

Both of you guys will be unignored from my list at the next update for actually not sig spamming. Thanks for sharing your thoughts.

edit: Sig Spamming is a topic which is also extensively discussed by the mods and admins and I trust that they will soon present a nice solution, which will alter the general quality of this forum.

Singling out sig spamming is not what this list is, which is why it's aggravating for me seeing this list repeatedly being displayed as a way to hide sig spammers when you've just admitted yourself, your list contains much more. For those that can't handle insults, trolls, and bad habits, you probably shouldn't be here and you should probably just leave the internet, or at least leave forums and any chat-based internet activities.

Seeing insults, trolls, and bad habits is knowledge worth having. Children ignore everything that upsets them, adults should not. I do not like singling out DannyHamilton because he can be a helpful person to others but he has bad habits as well, and has certainly had his share of insults, but IMO that should never get him on a public "stop sig spammers" ignore list. I believe it may have been wiser to just start your own list from scratch and single out the real active targets that some people out there may want to ignore.
1110  Other / Off-topic / Re: AGD's ignore list extreme on: October 25, 2016, 07:13:56 PM
I have not gotten any explanation as to why I am on DannyHamilton's ignore list. Nor do I care. I'd rather stay on it so everyone can see how useless these lists are. Most people are smart enough to handle their own ignore list, if your not, you probably shouldn't be here. Stop treating everyone like they are idiots and you are some sort of guardian, your list is crap just like DannyHamilton's because you did not verify anything, just copied & pasted crap and added some more crap in of your own to make yourself feel unique. A heaping pile of crap this list is.

Edit: I thought the seller giving me the btc addresses with private keys so I don't need to stake new address and sign new message, I thought that doing this can make my account shady and get negative feedback for buying account.

Using your own logic and combining it with everything you've disclosed here, your account is going to be tagged even if your unbanned (not likely), so its not worth arguing. Stop buying accounts and you won't have to deal with these issues.



You just signed a message from an address that was posted on May March 19.....
FTFY
I think you should work on your months. It doesn't seem to be one of your strengths.

I cannot comment on your new venture at this point as I'm still trying to fully grasp the concept and reading through the site, I will forewarn you I have a hard time accepting any alt coin, but am looking at it. Regardless, I will certainly miss your scam busting efforts, sarcasm, and sometimes outlandish posts. Although I'm sure we will still see some of that!  Wink
