   Gallery: https://imgur.com/a/rIaZ6Just wanted to post here since I have so many aloe vera sprouts. This is the kind you can eat (Aloe Barbadensis). It is also good for your skin and hair. They are small, but amazingly viable. The cuttings I take will take over the containers they are in quickly if they are cared for properly and produce tons of their own sprouts you can take your own cuttings from. They prefer a well drained container and sandy soil with minimal watering after an initial rooting period. I can ship to the US, sorry no international shipping. Get THREE aloe sprouts for  including shipping flat rate priority mail USPS. (containers not included) Get 3 large fresh leaves  including shipping flat rate priority mail USPS. (only one order available) I also have tons of non-GMO seeds and can even sprout them for you if you are willing to wait. I am also willing to trade seeds. Just let me know what you are looking for. If you are interested PM me. |

When I read this writing, I immediately was reminded of how this forum operates and the behavior of people around here operating under the self proclaimed title of "scambuster" or something similar claiming to be doing a "service for the community". In reality they are only seeking public justification for relentlessly harassing targeted individuals so they can continue to do so without repercussion, at the expense of the entire community. Social justice warriors are active here on Bitcointalk, only here they like to call themselves "scambusters", and they are every bit as obsessive compulsive, narcissistic, and fascist. Unfortunately this is a global issue, not just effecting Bitcointalk. Real oppressors always wear the skin of a liberator, this way they can get all of the true believer's packed with cognitive dissonance to mindlessly dump hate upon targets they designate. This is a growing problem for all walks of life. Please be on the alert for this sociopathic behavior disguised as justice. http://thoughtcatalog.com/joshua-goldberg/2014/12/when-social-justice-warriors-attack-one-tumblr-users-experience/http://fff.org/explore-freedom/article/creating-a-culture-of-denunciation/ |

http://q13fox.com/2015/02/27/investigators-say-teen-coaxed-friend-to-commit-suicide-then-tweeted-how-much-she-missed-him/I am absolutely disgusted by this. This woman believes that men are nothing but disposable tools meant to end their lives in order to provide her with sympathy and attention from her peers. Michelle Carter should kill herself. "Days prior to Roy’s suicide, Carter was allegedly telling her friends “it’s her fault that Conrad is dead, even though he was still alive and speaking and texting with her regularly,” police said. South Coast Today reported that on July 11, 2014, Carter texted a friend saying she couldn’t locate Roy and was “a mess,” then an hour later texted Roy and allegedly said, “Let me know when you’re gonna do it.” "

I just wanted to make a post here in the "off topic" section so it is matter can be of public record what goes on here behind closed doors. I will be locking this thread so the usual mob of children who reside on this forum don't turn it into another shitshow. They have plenty of their own threads for that (as well as anyone else's that decides to chime in on the subject)
Today Woodcollector posted the demanded video of himself doing detailed hand carving work to youtube, then this forum, as well as reddit. He was promptly banned, and his posts deleted (something the staff claim they never do unless under extreme circumstances). His posts were also deleted from the reddit within a similar time frame. Not only was this done, but the resident mob of stalkers here also reported every single one of his youtube videos in order to get them removed, and were successful, because he just happened to have a radio playing in the background while he worked, so they were all removed under copyright grounds.
This is what this forum has degenerated into. In spite of a mob of harassers posting dozens of off topic posts, and those posts being reported, the staff refuses to act on the reports of clearly off topic posts of these harassers, but shockingly they have no problem enforcing this policy in the other direction to the point of a permanent ban, as well as deleting posts to ensure his reputation is unable to be salvaged. I would say I expect more from the staff here, but I know better.

Nubbins feels it is appropriate to use his position on the default trust list to attempt to intimidate and silence people for the grievous crime of disagreeing with his opinions/actions in public. This week he has been systematically destroying the trust ratings of several people who disagree with his use of mob action, and also speak up in support of the user WoodCollector. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=392383Apparently a member of the staff also decided to join in and BAN several of these users for supporting WoodCollector's position and deleted their comments. Here is a list of his most recent left negative trust ratings: TECSHARE: 2015-01-25 0.00000000 "Use caution when trusting this user's judgment" Reference : https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=935115.msg10257046#msg10257046(the reference is basically him commenting about me, a bit of circular logic and not at all specific) SodaWarz: 2015-01-21 0.00000000 "Sock. Shill." Reference : NONE (Other users such as Mitchełł, jonald_fyookball, BadBear, danielpbarron, & smoothie he is a "provable alt of Woodcollector" or that he is "supporting a scam" simply because he does not agree with their opinions and supports WoodCollector's stated position. I see no actual evidence anywhere for this, just speculation, accusations and mob attacks on anyone who doesn't agree with their speculation.) poisenrang: 2015-01-23 0.00000000 "Paid shill, do not trust" Reference : https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=864472.msg10237014#msg10237014(this rating is apparently for posting a single sentence. "WOAHH!!! this piece is so nice! carved so well!") TerraHasher: 2015-01-25 0.00000000 "Shill / Scammer" Reference: NONE (Other users such as jonald_fyookball, BadBear, Rawted, Somekindabitcoin, smoothie, Rawted again, & danielpbarron joined in on the feedback abuse, usually citing "provable alt of Woodcollector" or some other accusation of him being a sock puppet or shill. I would love to hear about all this "proof" Badbear has. I suspect it consists of him accepting the speculations of Nubbins and others in his mob clique, and therefore not proof of anything. I have heard the staff here say many times it is nearly impossible to prove or disprove if some one is using an alternate account. This is quite convenient for accusations for use in mob attacks.) ukcrypto: 2015-01-25 0.00000000 "Confirmed sock or moron, take your pick" Reference: NONE (This is an actual satisfied customer of Woodcollector's. I see now that leaving negative trust for "morons" is now an acceptable standard for a trust rating. I guess half of the users on this forum should have negative tags then. Another user, jonald_fyookball also joined in on this feedback abuse stating in his negative trust rating "probably an alt of woodcollector." ) bitspill: 2015-01-25 0.00000000 "WARNING: User may be unable to parse simple English text. Exercise caution." Reference: NONE (This user was also speaking in support of Woodcollector. Nubbins left a negative at first but then modified it to a neutral. The way that this is worded seems more like an attempt at an insult than any actual information about WHY he left the negative/neutral rating.) It seems to me there is a very clear pattern of a small handful of closely associated individuals choosing to systematically tarnish the reputation of honest users here simply for having the audacity to disagree with them, as an attempt to intimidate them into silence. I must say I am also a bit shocked that staff would go as far as banning several of these people to prevent them from speaking (including deleted comments). It is convenient that all of these accusations of sock puppeting and shills can nether be proven or disproven. Additionally it has never been considered "scamming" to use an alt, especially when they person they claim they are sock puppeting for is not even proven a scammer himself. This is clearly a coordinated attempt to silence discussion on the topic by a bunch of Nubbin's buddies. These accusations are clearly spurious and just an attempt to silence any debate on the topic by intimidating and "discrediting" anyone who dares to support Woodcollector's narrative. Nubbins and his mob have done nothing but spew SPECULATION and have never at ANY POINT presented any substantial fact based evidence that Woodcutter, or any of the other individuals he attacked by abusing the trust system ever did anything wrong. Again, it is all 100% speculation. Theories and speculation are not equivalent to proof. As a result of this I am requesting Nubbins be removed from the default trust list (level 2). Canaryinthemine please remove this yet another example of abusive users from your trust list. Video proof Woodcollector does in fact carve his peices without a laser engraver or a CNC: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=935115.0;allNubbins's original accusation thread (now shockingly locked): https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=930649.0;allThread opened by Woodcollector in the interim after Nubbins locked his thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=931109.20 |

This is a response to a thread that is for admins only, so I am replying here. Again, the trust system is not a definitive proof of trustworthiness, its just a feedback system. As far as standards, there aren't enforced standards by a central forum authority, there are enforced standards by the community,
If this was actually true why in my case did: 1: The administrator personally requested my removal from the default trust. 2: More than one staff member mobilized to rally people to see to my removal. 3: Two high ranking staff or mods excluded me from trust effectively negating the actual trust I earned, not the default trust position that was granted to me. 4: The staff repeatedly speak of responsibility and standards of users leaving trust while on the default trust list. You can call it "community" all you like, but it doesn't change the fact that staff were the ones doing all of the rallying for removal, and added their own punitive punishment of trust exclusions to boot on top of the default trust removal to make sure I was made an example of for not following dictates from staff to remove my rating. You can claim the staff are "just part of the community", but when they speak it holds great weight and people will likely do pretty much anything they suggest. So in reality it is not at all true that a central authority doesn't enforce trust standards, because clearly it does, and I am sure my case was not the only case handled in this manner. |

Once again VOD has gone too far and has now left me negative trust because he did not like the fact I criticized his abuse of the trust system. In order to prove he does not abuse the trust system he has abused the trust system to leave me a negative rating: Vod 16: -0 / +9(9) 2015-01-06 0.00000000 "Constantly posts lies about me in an effort to have me removed from the default trust list. Honest discussion is one thing, but he just posts BS with absolutely no basis. Not trustworthy." https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=trust;u=15728My goal was not to have you removed from the default trust list until now. Previously I was simply trying to get you to check your behavior, but now I can see you have no interest in that only digging your trust abuse hole even deeper by accusing me of lying about you and attacking my reputation with a false trust rating. This is clearly an abuse of the trust system in order to silence my criticism of his activities in his abuse of the trust system. I have told no lies about VOD, and I challenge any one to quote anything untrue I stated about VOD. Regardless, he accuses me of things that are not scam related in a very clear attempt to put a chill effect on his criticism, posted in the appropriate areas where such criticism belongs. I challenge the staff to now remove him from the default trust, because he clearly has no intent of restraining himself if this is how he responds to just criticism. He seems to believe he has some kind of special authority from staff that protects him when he abuses the trust system. Staff, here is your chance to back your denials of preferential treatment for Vod with actions. |

 When I initially requested to participate in this process, I had read an erroneous post stating that the SP20 included a power supply unit, so I falsely assumed it would be ready to go out of the box. As a result I had to wait for a PSU to be delivered to complete my review of this unit. Needless to say during the holidays it took a bit longer. I apologize profusely for the delay in writing this review and hope Spondoolies-Tech is ok with me continuing to use this unit regardless of this delay, because it really is a fine product I am excited to continue to use. They were kind enough to send it to me free of charge in exchange for writing my review of the product. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=887807.0;allI gave up on Bitcoin mining shortly after I received ROI on my BFL Jalapeno miners because the constant crashes, babysitting, and the setup was such a pain. I have little patience for such things, and I was amazed with how streamlined the setup process was for this unit. The only suggestion I might make is to include a pin diagram and a pre-made jumper with the unit so that non-experts can jump the power cable to make it constantly be in the on state. This would be an inexpensive way to remove the conditioning most people rightfully have to sticking metal pins into power cables. Not that jumping the power cable was hard, just something that made me uneasy, fearing I might brick the unit by miscounting pins or something similar, also the subconscious fear of being shocked. Subconscious aside, I really like this device. It is extremely well constructed, solid, has a fairly small profile for such a large hashrate, and most importantly, I DON'T HAVE TO BABYSIT IT! Spondoolies-Tech is setting the bar higher for ASIC mining hardware. Shipping: Arrived in 5 days from Israel. Amazingly fast shipping. the shipping container is extremely well constructed with a heavy honeycomb cardboard inserts to absorb impacts. You could throw the box off of a 3 story building and it would probably be fine (please don't try this, that would be an abuse of such fine hardware).  Setup:This is the best part. I have never had a miner that was this simple to set up. Spondoolies-Tech has set a new standard for ASIC miners. 1: Remove from box 2: Connect unit to your PSU. I used this PSU because it was on sale and included all of the needed cables http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00COIZTZM/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=13: Jump the pins in the cable that you connect to the 24 pin motherboard connection. A paperclip or rigid wire works. It is just a ground so I believe there is not heavy current flowing thru the jumper, so the gauge of the wire should not be an issue  Note: use the diagram on the left to tell you which pins to jump 4. Attach your PSU to your SP20, and plug the SP20 into your router, or I believe you can also use a USB cable to connect your device to a internet enabled machine. Don't forget to plug the newly jumped cable into your PSU as well. 5. Plug in the main power cable, and flip the switch on your PSU. 6. Visit myminer.io . You may need to mess with some security settings depending on the software you use to allow the device local access. 7. Put in your pool details under the pools tab, and click save - THATS IT! ( I know I was shocked too)   Summary:In a 10 point system from 1-10, 1 being the worst and 10 being perfection, I would rate Spondoolies-Tech SP20 as a solid 9/10. The ease of use and setup is amazing. It arrived very fast and was packed well. Although I was sent the unit free of charge, I find the current price point of around $700 to be quite reasonable considering how much work they did developing the system to a point that someone with almost no technical knowledge could set it up with ease. The only con I can think of (other than not being a fan of sticking paperclips in power supply units), is the amount of noise the fan makes. I know this has said before ad nauseam, but frankly I think it is a matter of a complete lack of other complaints to be made about this unit. While I wouldn't put this unit in my bedroom, its not so loud that it is an annoyance in another room. I would compare it to the decibel level of a small hairdryer. It is really not that loud considering how much air it is moving through it, and I would rather deal with a little noise than have it overheat and burn my house down. I am honored to be one of the few to be granted a SP20 to review by Spondoolies-Tech, and I would like to thank them for the opportunity to use their fine product. It has renewed my interest in mining again. |
