Some altcoins are interesting, but they are really only useful for increasing your bitcoin stash. Most are scams or pump and dumps.

I can't decide if ukcrypto is trolling or not. I mean he can't seriously believe that's proof.

What he is going to do with this 4-million strong army? Use them as cannon fodder against the invaders? It will be better to have a properly trained army of 400,000 than a four million strong rag-tag one.

Same thing he will do with the fake artillery, use it to intimidate and make it look like he has more than he really does. Posers.

Even your wife can accuse you of rape.

Rape is rape.  Being married doesn't mean the end of rape charges for the wife or the husband.  But wife against husband rapes... well  call me old fashioned or maybe even the science seems sketchy

Are people expected to have consensual contracts, perhaps even live-in lawyers and witnesses to protect them from their own spouse too?  Huh

My wife and I made a deal with each other, that neither one of us will EVER deny the other sex, even if we're not really in the mood. (Excluding any painful, weird or kinky stuff.) It's not penned on paper though, so I suppose she can renege any time she wants. Call ME old fashioned, but I consider a marriage certificate (or its equivalent) an eternal consent form. (At least until death or divorce do you part.)

Being married doesn't take away a person's right to say no to sex.
5  Other / Meta / Re: Regarding Ponzi Sites -- Requesting some attention (not another section thread) on: January 13, 2015, 01:06:35 PM
@OP You are only half right. You are trying to argue that a ponzi can be legitimate. A ponzi, by definition, cannot be legitimate.

Quote
A Ponzi scheme is an investment fraud that involves the payment of purported returns to existing investors from funds contributed by new investors. Ponzi scheme organizers often solicit new investors by promising to invest funds in opportunities claimed to generate high returns with little or no risk. In many Ponzi schemes, the fraudsters focus on attracting new money to make promised payments to earlier-stage investors to create the false appearance that investors are profiting from a legitimate business.

Problem is, you are calling yourself a ponzi when you aren't. Don't act surprised when people leave you negative feedback when you are calling yourself a fraud from the start.

SEC isn't likely to be so enlightened though, so don't be surprised when they bust down your door.

Even if it's a doll, it's still pedophilia, don't do it.
That's ridiculous. By that logic, I've committed bestiality.

I honestly don't know how to reply to that.

No,
I did not give permission to redsn0w nor did he notify me about changing the email settings to public
Besides, the rogue took place AFTER redsn0w took control meaning he should have changed the email in the first place as general escrow procedure
I am not at fault here. Im just grateful he recovered the account
So are you claiming that when you gave the password to redsn0w the email details were hidden/private? If this is the case and redsn0w agrees then this incident would fall entirely on him. If he disputes it then it would fall mostly on him, but still on you somewhat.

FWIW he does have the email set to be public although it is set to an email address that no one can potentially create

What I got from all this is that redsn0w previously held that account as collateral, set the email to public, returned it, did not change the setting back, so it's been public since then, and moriea was unaware. If that's what happened then that's a big failure on redsn0w's part, to change someone's account settings in that way and not return it to it's original settings as the owner left it, and not inform them.

It's also disturbing that redsn0w is taking it upon himself to close the original moriea's loan request thread, along with all the others, under the guise of stopping spam. Closing the fake moriea's threads is one thing, but closing moriea's own threads, and demanding the lender find another way to contact him is not cool at all.

I'm sure redsn0w is a nice guy and all, but he has shown poor judgement, incompetence, and is not fit to act as escrow. He got really lucky that things worked out the way they did. If moriea hadn't gotten banned, if he hadn't gave the account away, if he hadn't been unbanned, he would have been screwed. And the way he is going on blaming others, I'm sure he would have found a way to say it wasn't his fault and not paid up as he should have.

10  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Moderation of (possible) FUD and insults on: September 22, 2014, 05:48:29 AM
After receiving a lot of PMs about this subject, seeing a lot of reports of this kind and after one of the global mods PMed me with suggestions regarding this topic, I thought that I should cover it:

Possible (or real, not for me to judge) FUD, accusations or statements are not moderated.

Moderators don't moderate for truth. However, trolling isn't allowed. If a user is habitually posting obviously false nonsense just to stir up trouble, then it's considered trolling, which is prohibited. However, such cases should be thoroughly documented in the report (There are tons of reports that just say "trolling", but moderators don't have time to look through each user's post).

(Possible) slander and insults are also allowed as long as they contain any kind of constructive opinion, info or something else substantial and aren't off-topic. For example, posting something like "you are dumb" will be deleted as it contains no meaningful content. However, if the post is somehwere along the lines of "You are dumb. This is wrong because this website/thread/etc. has explained it's not right", it's in most cases accepted.

Scams aren't moderated either due to the fact that's it's extremely hard to make an unbiased decision on a limited amount of evidence and time. Moderators don't have time to be investigators

I've never seen slander so specifically addressed before. Is this your personal policy, or the policy of the forum? If the forum's policy, can you link me to a reference for it? If it's your policy, is your information available, or your lawyer's information? I'm aware of the forums free speech policy, so don't just use that a reference. Specifcally recognizing slander and saying it won't be removed is different from free speech, since slander is not covered under free speech laws. Did you get advice from a lawyer before posting this policy? Because you have probably opened yourself, and possibly the forum to legal liability depending on your answer to the first question.

Do you really mean slander? There could be legal implications, certainly there are slander (and libel for print and other media) laws here in UK, and I'm sure variations of the same in other countries. Completely agree (FWIW) that if a potentially contentious statement is made it must be backed up with evidence.

Cheers, Ngaio
As far as I understand most laws only have laws regarding the expression of slander as it can be censored as it isn't considered any kind of creative, scientific or otherwise constructive expression. Aside from that, all legal matters regarding slander fall on the person who expressed it, since it's his decision.

Edited the post to change it to a bit more mild meaning.

No, since this forum allows people to post anonymously via proxies such as tor, and it's impossible to track them down, it falls on the forum to moderate it.

The message means that the moderator deleted your post. You did post the wallet after all.

I got the email but I can assure you I never posted it.  Not much else I can say.  Guess I just leave this account dead and use this new account.

Nope that would be ban evasion. You are responsible for your account. If "A fuck it Ill just make a new one" would be possible a ban would be useless, wouldnt it?

Looks like you allready evaded your ban and only asked about this now:


1st post according to your history:
I'm back.....




BTCBTC

Seriously, stop evading your ban or I'll ban this account too.

It's pretty obvious the guy got hacked why are you being such a dick? Make you feel like a big man to threaten people and kick them while they're down?

Look at the price history, it's nothing new, it's always been volatile and subject to the whims of the whales. This will change as more capital comes in but swings are to be expected.

Soon, capitulation, blood in the streets, then the next bubble. Should be fun.
