I banned antibanker yesterday if that's who you're talking about. His posting was far too off topic in nearly every thread he posted in. This is bitcointalk, not jewtalk.
Ummm... Did you know theymos has moved antibanker's posts to jew.bitcointalk.org with a bunch of weird metal eagle pictures and animated gifs of jews (with horns...) taking gas showers. wtf is that?! I'll admit it, I clicked. |

Would it help to have a link to the thread in the pm along with the quote?

Altcoins are off topic, and there's nothing worse than another 3 page derail over *coin. Nothing against them, but this is a forum for bitcoin. Edit: Wait I remember that post, it was posted in the guidelines thread for speculation here ( https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=130925.0). That was even more off topic. I deleted several speculation posts from that thread. |

sorry...
so i have to change the name to wallet.dat and where to place it than?
On Windows 7 you need to place your backup(wallet.dat) in C:\Users\<your username>\AppData\Roaming\Bitcoin. Make sure you don't overwrite anything in there. This, there should be a wallet.dat there, rename it wallet2.dat and put the backup wallet.dat file in that folder. |

To me, bitcoin is worth far more than any price it's been at to date, none of this short term stuff bothers me.
I did take advantage of the spike to order some items from various places though.

Tor is pretty slow in general.

I request to know whether user ~davout who is labeled as 'staff' has:
- the ability to read PM's of arbitrary users
No, and never has. - the ability to edit, move, or delete posts which are not his own.
In the French forum and it's child boards, yes. Outside of there, no, and never has as far as I know. |

Pm theymos with your proof. I don't know what you could do to prove it wasn't you though, so I wouldn't hold out hope.

Can't say I'm a big fan of the idea of giving businesses scammer tags over customer service disputes. The real world is never that black and white, I expect to see Amazon or Newegg here next.

All of them, from today anyway. Here's a helpful image for you.  |

I think we should have a "rep" button as well as "ignore"
Are you with me fellow bovine?
ARE YOU WITH ME!?
what about a temporary ignore button that reports the post giving the mods more time to regulate Mod response time is fine, you just have bad/incorrect reports. |

Yeah, sure.
I'll reply in a few moments. Price is 30 minicoins (0.03BTC) for the moment.
I'm looking to get this too, let me know. |

They did this kind of quick.... Seems weird to me to do this in an instant. Why not contacting bet participants and ask what they were thinking about this. Sure you get the typical "i won where is ma moneyz" people but some of them; like we've seen here; might be honest and not greedy?
Hm, this all makes no sense to debate without coinjedi or bob administrators. This is not a bitcointalk.org related issue so technically theymos and co-mods are right taking the stand not to hand out scammer tags.
On the other hand we need to have a discussion about what that famous "scammer tag" really is and to whom it may apply? (but not here. Point me towards an existing thread if there is any?)
There's two decent ones, one with some general discussion about scammers in general, and another where we talk about why I don't like the idea of making an official scammer policy. Policy https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=108214.0General discussion, and what to do with scammer tags going forward. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=153221.0 |

If I'm understanding you properly...If BoB agreed to 3rd party arbitration, then did not follow their findings, then yes IMO that's tag worthy.
Is that what you're asking?
That's only half of it (damn it's so difficult to express complex concepts in a foreign language!). The other half would be to honour the bet if an external judge would decide that the outcome was different from "draw". But I suppose that would be difficult (i.e.: expensive) if BoB has already refunded everybody that took part in the bet. I suspected that's what you meant, which is why I was so careful with my wording. No I couldn't do that in good conscience. People agreed to let BoB make the decision when they used their website for the bet, to take that away from them and demand they follow yet someone else's ruling because some don't agree (keep in mind, I don't necessarily agree with it either, as I already said above), wouldn't be ethical. Only if BoB agreed to that, and like you said they can't now, since they refunded all the bets already. |

Those "hundreds of users" have money at stake, so of course they're gonna disagree. Doesn't make them any more right than someone else just because there are more of them.
That those who didn't bet anything are overwhelmingly on one side should tell you something, but I guess if you're not able to see what side is correct just from the undisputed facts, you wouldn't care that only a small cabal of BFL associates agree with you. Well then you clearly don't even know what you're talking about, I even posted in Lukes thread (before coinjedi finalized his decision) stating that for the purposes of the bet, I thought BFL did NOT ship. But don't let little facts like that get in the way  . https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=163261.msg1720394#msg1720394I don't think he deserves a scammer tag for calling a draw though. I'm absolutely amazed that you of all people, who was in the minority fighting the majority (Pirate and his shills) for such a long time, would turn around and use the majority card when it suits you. What a hypocrite.
Micon is annoying, but you've just provided an example of his judgment being better than most here. That was kinda the point of that part of the post, at this point I'm guessing you just read what you want to read and make up the rest though. |

So you would agree too, to use a third party professional to understand if the bet was a draw or not? If I'm understanding you properly...If BoB agreed to 3rd party arbitration, then did not follow their findings, then yes IMO that's tag worthy. Is that what you're asking? |

There are a few hundred users that think it's an easy decision, some of which are betting against me in other BFL-facing wagers. You see 2 giant threads calling them scammers. Really think a few hundred of us are just irrational and angry at losing fair and square? This one is so lopsided what is right and what is wrong, and once again a situation proves Theymos is not impartial.
It has seemed to me, for a long time, for whatever reason, this community makes a lot of pro-BFL decisions. Theymos has made them in the past, as has gmaxwell, and now coinjedi makes a pro-BFL move that will destroy his site. This is not something that is shocking to me or should be to you guys.
It is plain and simply outright theft. There is unlikely to be any punishment except what will certainly be a very noticeable absence of action at BoB.
Those "hundreds of users" have money at stake, so of course they're gonna disagree. Doesn't make them any more right than someone else just because there are more of them. There were also lots and lots ofusers who called you a troll, and begged for you to.be banned, should we have caved just because there were more of them than those who defended you? Majority rules isn't always right. I'm absolutely amazed that you of all people, who was in the minority fighting the majority (Pirate and his shills) for such a long time, would turn around and use the majority card when it suits you. What a hypocrite. |
