In the Collectors Gang? I think you have to talk to minerjones first  Edit: I also updated the description of The Objective Standards Guild, with its newest naming convention. |

Damn there's one big gang missing in the big picture, the bone bitcoin Collectors, those are many, with MJ as a top collector, but he is also a team leader of the The Escrow team
New update as of today: the Collectors Gang! Thank you iasenko and ChiBitCTy for pointing out this big gang |

I think there should be a split between general PC hardware and mining hardware.
The last one should include ASICs, FPGAs, video cards built only for mining, but also PC hardware used previously for mining, thus the buyer will know he buys a CPU / GPU which worked intensively for mining and not one used for gaming.
So I think it's OK if the mining hardware sections includes also other equipments besides ASICs. FPGAs must be included and also the video cards dedicated to mining (those with no video-out). But also usual PC parts which took part in the mining process. Of course, in this case it's the seller's reputation at stake, if he lies, selling equipment used for mining if the section of general PC equipment.
But this difference should be made.

Indeed, LoyceV have that topic as well, but it's different than Coin-1's. One is for highlighting undermerited posts to merit sources, while the other one is for congratulating the rank ups. Pharmacist's general generousity towards lower ranks is admirable and there should be more like him. About changing the systen, that's a difficult work and I don't think there will be any drastic change in the future. But maybe this topic will raise merit sources' awarness about looking closer newbies' posts...? Let's hope for the best |

A small erratum is needed here. .
This thread was initially created in response to the "gang" thread, which was initially created because of comments regarding people growing thicker skin. No one should be trying to police what other people say. You disagree? Fine. You are offended? Also fine. Argue against them, grow thicker skin, ignore them, but no one should be trying to silence them by using red trust as a weapon.
I don't know if this thread was a response to the gang thread, but I can say for sure that the gang thread was not created as a response to Timelord's ridiculous allegations, with no substance / proof, towards this profile against press. Nor it was determined by the comments regarding growing a thicker skin. Seriously, it wasn't. I had the idea for this topic for a while ago and it sounded funny That's why I said to be counted as a pamphlet. Besides, I also stated that I was determined to write it after seeing all xtraelv's historic topics. Never thought though it would trigger such reactions, as Timelord's (including his deleted posts, in case you saw them). Xtraelv also mentioned multiple scandals in his topic related to historic forum battles, but his topic disn't generate such reactions, although it was a serious topic. Mine was a pamphlet and I wrote it when I was in a mood for fun. But I had it in mind for since some time ago and I just waited the moment when I felt also in the mood for writing something funny. Apparently, nobody felt disturbed excepting Timelord, although I used expression as "the clowns cartel", "controlling merit / trust system" etc. People understood humour -- and I'm glad -- excepting him. I also mentioned this guild in the nascent gangs section, but, apparently, TECSHARE understood the humour and he didn't come with replies against my topic. What I want to say is that the respective topic was made when I felt I'm in the mood for fun, not as a response to Timelord's delusion. Regarding him and his feedback on me, I think it's clear that the guy "speaks another language", to say so Regarding "Argue against them, grow thicker skin, ignore them, but no one should be trying to silence them by using red trust as a weapon.", I fully agree with that. |

Hehe I was thinking also about this topic lately. Well, as the 10th anniversary already passed, maybe he is thinking to do this for a future anniversary. Maybe the 20th one? [...] the more time that goes along the more unlikely this will be to happen. Although, you can bet your buck that I'll be wanting to help organize the 20th anniversary one with a little more time to plan, and get things done.
And about users's concerns for shipping (see the above replies), there are good news, as theymos came with a good idea. It is currently tested by mocacinno. If things go well, maybe Welsh can use it too. |

How about this gang?
The Scam Busters Gang
Hehe thx for the suggestion! Added! With a few modifications; I hope you don't mind. where there is Gang there also must be a Bang. Gang-Bang. I remember Jet Cash had a similar thought, so there is hope: I don't seem to be in any gangs. I was going to say that if there is a gang bang, please can I join in, but I'm not sure that we have any girls here any more.
What about Gang of Trolls and Lunatics or Gang of Scammers and Cheaters?
Cheaters Gang is mentioned already and scammers are mentioned as a faction of this mother gang. The trolls and lunatics are also included, in the "etc" from the end of the mother gang's description The Cheaters Gang - [...] This gang acts also as a mother gang, containing various bands, such as The Merit Abusers, [...] The Thieves, Scam Gang Mafia etc. |

Only the difference that I never invested: only earned it |
|
|
|

I never bought BTC, nor crypto; only earned it. In 2017 was the first time I sold for fiat.
After 2-3 more sellings, also in 2017 (last time being in September or October 2017), I never sold again. Nor I intend to do, at least in the close future.

I have the same impression myself; however, I can't say precisely. - February 21st, 2020 update (in case you missed it): paycheck of the Merit Cycling Club members. Please don't shoot the messenger - a few more typos corrected - a few more alliances / beefs mentioned. Thank you xtraelv for your suggestions! |

Price is way higher than I expected. I thought it will go up a few months after the halving.
Apparently, until now, I was wrong.
But let's see what the future reserves us...

but how can we beat the other Guy above that looks like a Movie maker for too many movies shared in this thread .
Loool! Thank you for recognition There is no need for battle among people sharing the same beliefs! The Movie-Watching Gang topic is underway. Stay tuned! You are all invited in this gang I hope I'll have time tomorrow for writing this thread. Writing the history of the others forum gang took more time than expected Oh, completely forgot about that: I'll share also links where you can watch movies online for free, as peter requested them; besides, I'll mention also some TV series. |

Great summary of Bitcointalk gangs and written in such a funny way that I couldn't stop to read.
Of course, it is quite surprising how many gangs actually are active on the forum right now because I was aware only about 4 of them.
~snip~
It has to be a lot of work to find all these gangs, with proper ANN threads, first mentions, members, dates and so on, tremendous work OP, kudos and merit for that from me.
Hehe, thank you! I'm laughing also when I'm reading it after I make another update. And indeed, I never knew as well about so many gangs. It was a lot of work, yes... As you can see, I'm working on this topic for two days already Nice topic. We need an objective metric to evaluate the gangs to see which one is the most powerful. Does my Kitty Cult win?  Thank you for appreciating my work, Supreme Leader! Regarding metrics, I'm open for suggestions. I managed so far to write some of the alliances / beefs between the gangs. Btw, I didn't know about the expression "to have a beef with" before I saw it at nutildah. It sounded funny, as at first I was thinking at a beef and afterwards I understood its meaning. So I used it as well. If your Kitty Cult wins? Well, from what I saw so far, it is a very strong gang indeed! I also noted some examples of its pure power - Reputation: power comes in numbers; this gang is a small army. Activity: controlling the trust system~snip~ Union Trust - an inferior gang created for the sole purpose to fight against two lieutenants from Cult of Lauda, but also against this gang's leader. Of course they were smashed in pieces, without knowing who they're messing with! With all due respect to all gangs here and without trying to flame things up ( more than they are / more than I already did ), I think that Cult of Lauda can be defeated in a 1v1 battle only by the Mods Gang. Also, controlling the trust system is a proof of brute force! But surprises can appear from any side. Maybe even from Flat Earth Believers, which are considered to be inofensive...  |

Latest updates: - added Bitcointalk Gang, Anti DT Gang, Union Trust and TOAA gangs to the Defunct section - added Monero Gang, FUD Gang, Cheaters Gang, Flat Earth Believers and Hardcore Bounty Hunter Gang to the Obscure section - added The Objective Standard Guild to the Nascent section - small modifications to the descriptions of the previous listed gangs, in order " to reflect better the reality". Man, there are so many gangs in here. I'm starting to believe wolvoo How about this picture, I like it more than your picture  Added! Damn there's one big gang missing in the big picture, the bone bitcoin Collectors, those are many, with MJ as a top collector, but he is also a team leader of the The Escrow team. Things are getting more messed up when you add the IT Mining Crowd, many of them silently lurking in the Computer Hardware (in the Marketplace). ... I can continue if you want me to Can you give me more details (more precise) please about the collectors and about the Mining Crowd? |

I was eagerly waiting for your post and a bit worried that time machine got broken (I was thinking that maybe you borrowed Timelords' Tardis machine, which is known for being buggy and for leading to other (mental?) problems). Now everything is ok, I can rest in peace for the evening, next to my wife, as long as I still have her prior you take over I'm sure the gang doesn't mind, as long as the payment is there.  |

DIICOT a demarat anchete penale pentru traderii care au incasat sume mari (peste 10.000€) in conturile bancare, pornind de la prezumtia profund gresita de posibila spalare de bani. Cum spuneam si in OP, chiar daca oamenii au lucrat legal si au pastrat loguri ale exchange-urilor, extrase de cont etc., tot trebuie sa-si dovedeasca nevinovatia in fata unui sistem care porneste de la prezumtia de vinovatie, incalcand niste principii fundamentale ale justitiei. Daca vrei sa citesti mai multe aspecte despre incalcarea principiului de nevinovatie, dar si despre moralitatea cu dublu standard practicata de Stat, o poti face aici. |

Thank you nutildah, I made the update. Please re-read the OP as other sections have been added - nascent gangs, obscure gangs and defunct ones I'm still working on a few more. |
