Okay, so the Mods and the Admins are really nothing more than the great unwashed hoi polloi like the rest of us but they get shiny user titles. The board is funded, in part, by those donations, so you are volunteers laboring for a system that is, in part, funded by questionable source. Personally I don't take issue with any of you, even when I have been rightly or wrongly disciplined, its the nature of a beast like this forum. But, please don't ask any body to believe that there is not a wider sense of tolerance for significant donators.
Uhh, isn't Chaang a donator? VIP even? Please don't make me prove you wrong. *pulls a list of donators he has verbally raped* Here, I'll help you out: https://bitcointalk.org/donate.html <-- a complete list of donators and VIPs Thanks! Let's go through the list: casascius - called him a loser, said he was ruining bitcoin for making Casascius coins and taking away from their validity of bitcoin (and confusing newbies) and for making a POS that I think will never be used ever. zhoutong - I've told him he's an asshole for fighting with Ken and throwing a tantrum where he posted a thread here about how Cryptoxchange was lying about their stats without even talking to Ken about it first, proved him wrong, then he retracted it like a child and didn't even apologize correctly. Goat - I've told him he's an annoying prick after he wasted my time, confused everything in his order, acted like a 60 year old grandma who's never used a computer before, made veiled threats and strutted his bruised ego around like a moron. Blitzboom - I've argued with him in depth about bitcoinica and whether it is good or not and shared quite a few insults with him shakaru - I've called him a fucktard and gotten in many arguments on the forum about him and his personal lack of business skills, to which he replied "You're a running joke" and referred to me as hitler in some context. DeathAndTaxes - This stupid mother fucker used to be cool in my eyes, but then flipped the bitch switch on for no apparent reason. I'll give him a chance to change his mind later, but I'm pretty sure he's one of those "old man" style cocksuckers that isn't worth having on your side. Boss - This is Atlas. Please dont' make me talk about that faggot as the conversation will result in reasons for why his mom should have aborted him. aurumxchange - This is Roberto, who thinks through intimidation that he can cover up his mistakes (which he's learning doesn't work). We have yet to end our little squabble because he's avoiding all the right questions. bccasino - Basically running an illegal website with a history of defrauding users and although I haven't -fought with him- at all, we've had a run in on this very issue that I was vocal about regardless of his "status". Unfortunately that's about all I can remember for now. I'd like to say that -most- of these little hissyfits were misunderstandings, me being too aggressive at a time I didn't understand the intentions of people and hadn't really gotten my hand on the community, and basically felt threatened easily by anyone and everyone. Things changes after that to just getting on people's nerves for shits and giggles. Now however, I'm a bit more sewious and typically only drill someone when I truly believe they're doing something wrong. Btw, I have fought numerous times with Theymos as well and think that his ridiculous claim that I was a "scammer" deserves a swift punch to the face, but we've agreed to disagree. There, that's my proof that no matter what someone's status, I speak my mind. Next mod's turn! P.S. In Bruno style, I reserve the right to delete this post later if I think it causes the above listed members unnecessary hurty touchy feelings.Too late, I quoted it.  |

This ^^^ is either Scientology doctrine or Atlas, I'm not sure which, but both are equally creepy.
It's the former, unfortunately. |

I already have something like this in a greasemonkey script. I also changed the colors so it looks nice over remote desktop (16-bit).
Also, it looks a lot nicer if you remove the linefeed in the rightmost column in the thread list (between post time and nick).
Hey I'd love to use that script if you have it available. The above is mostly playing around, but I do use the forum over RDP very often, so 16-bit would help. Does it change actual embedded images, or just the forum styles? |

...possible bitdaytrade shill. hey, come on. Would a shill point out possible technical problems as I did in the past? Doesn't make any sense for me. Looks like he is seeing ghosties all around.  |

You could greatly increase the reputation of your magazine by removing Matthew from his position. Myself, like many others, won't be going near your publication while he is around.
You can speak for yourself, and others can speak for themselves. Keep your generalizations to yourself. |

BTW, anyone can pay 1£ to companies house and receive more information on the company, i.e. directors, shareholders, adresses etc...
I'm pretty sure everyone here is too cheap to do that, so here you go: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/1306522/Intersango.zip |

Ever read the ingredients label on a coke can? It's all there. They just don't tell you the proportions or how they make their "artificial flavoring"
nnnnno.... "Natural Flavors" as listed on a coke can consists of several secret ingredients that few people know. The actual ingredients are not listed. |

I'd like to think that a man's word is his bond, but I guess when profits are involved it seems to fly out the window. Should have done the calculations first. |

Fortunately it is a restricted forum with limits on who can post - the "Important Announcements" section within Bitcoin Discussion is a good one to be subscribed to for email notifications.

Zhou Tong is exactly who he says he is.
For the avoidance of doubt, please state which photograph shows Zhou Tong? If he is "exactly who he says he is", then why wouldn't the pictures posted by himself not be of him? If you don't know which ones are which, just look at his posting history to find the correct ones. |

This is why a discussion about a tagging system was started recently. It would be really cool to have multiple links in different sections actually only point to a single thread.
The reason I would like that is because I use the forum in a different way; I don't look at all the categories and stuff except when posting a new thread. At all other times, I am reading a complete list of all topics from all sections, and such a list would only have to show a topic once no matter how many tags it has.

Notice in the first video how long ago the guy "converted" to Christianity in the first place - only 2 months ago? For that reason it should be pretty obvious that he is a pushover and inclined to believe anyone with somewhat reasonable language skills. Next he will probably meet a Jehovah's Witness, and convert again. After that, who knows what he will waffle around to next.

Shouldn't he at least be stripped of his VIP title if he isn't being marked as a scammer?

That sounds reasonable as long as you choose unrelated words and throw in a few random symbols for good measure.

If anyone were to even consider this for a moment, which they shouldn't, consider that there are about 7200 bitcoins mined each day, currently. Since a 51% attack will take at least a little while to perform, especially if the target block has a few on top of it already, it would only be "worth it" for absolutely enormous amounts.
Then you would have to worry about how to coordinate such a feat, and how to do so securely and in the best interests of everyone involved. You would have to do this somehow while not providing an avenue for attack by someone malicious.

Connections were shut down during the Arab Spring, for example.
Because private companies were forced to comply. The government's direct control is questionable, although their influence is undeniable, as is their monitoring. |

We also take USD!
No SSL, and what flavor of USD do you take? My PayPal is empty to because I am avoiding using it.  |
