It is difficult to object to a well-reasoned accusation, I understand.

If my wit were beloved by the type of granola-munching cope-expert who does online “wellness checks”—with twit-style hashtags, no less!—then I would declare my whole life an irredeemable failure.  (Are you vegan, by any chance?  Did you vote for Biden?  Well, it would make as much sense as your theory that the CCP controls “all major media outlets”.)

On the other hand, perhaps I shouldn’t be so hard on you.  You are new at this:  You have only been in Bitcoin since 2020–2021, according to your first post.  Perhaps by now, you may even have even learned to stop camelcasing “BitCoin”—it’s what Mike Hearn used to do, it’s what Craig Wright does now, and it’s offensive to Bitcoin.  Lest thou bring down hellfire and red candlesticks on us all, thou shalt not anger divine Bitcoin by so blaspheming its sacred name!

“Max pain”:  Get used to it, and live up to your name by coping with your newbie-tier DCA before you accuse me of “whining”.  


Why?  What pain is in it for you?

If your coins are safely in your wallet where they belong, why do you even care if BTC at rest dips below your DCA during the type of perfect storm of a flock of black swans that we have seen in the past month?  You only started buying BTC quite recently—and you apparently started buying in 2021, a bull year!  Your DCA is inevitably way too high to worry about dipping below it, unless you like gambling about being lucky enough to time a local bottom with a first-time chunk buy.

If you use Bitcoin as money, as well you should, then that may be a potential reason for some pain:  The BTC is in motion, not at rest, and its value right now does affect you.  Solution:  Develop a strategy for budgeting and scheduling your money-flow around Bitcoin volatility.  It is not always feasible.  It is especially infeasible for many types of business, which is one reason why we do need some type of a stablecoin; anyone who contradicts that is a navel-gazing ignoramus with no inkling of business realities.  But with prudence and foresight, it can often be done just fine for personal finances.  (I will not speak further of this now:  I code, and I don’t want to spill the beans on potential future products.)

So as for “pain”.

You should only get scared if you have been through at least one order-of-magnitude BTC increase, and then it crashes below your DCA—oh, that would be scary!

You should only^* cry if 1 BTC ≠ 1 BTC.  That would mean either that the laws of mathematics have been repealed—or that the Bitcoin blockchain has been usurped by Do Kwon, who just made 1 LUNA ≠ 1 LUNA by centralized executive fiat.

---

^* Or, you should cry if you play stupid games with margin, and you thus lose BTC that had a DCA so low, it will never again come anywhere within even a zillion light years of that unless Bitcoin is really, truly dead.

I have been crying a lot, lately.  It is inevitable that I must suffer many weeping fits, and probably years of recurring nightmares.  Divine Bitcoin has damned me to this, as condign punishment for my sins.

FYI, in July 2021, I didn’t even know when it dipped below $30k; and if I had been paying attention to the market, I would have been laughing at all the n00bs who were crying.  Then, I was righteous and blessed in the sight of Bitcoin.

Bitcoin, please forgive me.

It was great stratagem by Russians...so great that you're still convinced 

Isn't he just trolling?

That means that the staff are checking the reports, they just don't agree with your point of view. They only agree when you report posts to be merged, but not not the off-topic cases. I didn't pay too much attention to what he wrote about Russia's occupation of Ukraine because I couldn't care less what he thinks about it. But it seems the staff don't mind it, for whatever reason. But that plagiarism that o_e_l_e_o found definitely needs to be addressed.  

I had talks with HF about this very topic and I believe he truly tried to remain impartial as possible.

I totally agree, maybe you know about King Scorpio, same league like BADecker.

It would be a decentralized way how to solve the issue, don't require action from mods, would discourage bad posting and would be a 100% community driven consensus.

The problem with democracy is that it quickly degenerates into idiocracy. Look at the USA and Western Europe - this is some kind of den of homosexuals and drug addicts. Okay, Biden is an idiot senile, but his advisers and assistants are not much better. Western politicians have been shredded and turned into clowns and political prostitutes who engage in populism and lobbying for the interests of large corporations (which is veiled corruption). Don't tell me this is a good role model because it isn't.

Russia has eased safety standards for cars produced on its territory, such as dropping the requirement for airbags, after Western sanctions over the war in Ukraine caused a shortage of electronic components and car parts. In a decree signed on May 12, the Russian government announced a list of reduced requirements to certify some types of new vehicles produced in the country.

It includes the production of cars without Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS) sensors, airbags or Emergency Locking Retractors (ELR) for seatbelts. The decree is in effect until February 1, 2023.

Izvestia: milk and juice producers warned of a reduction in the range

Manufacturers of dairy products and juice in Russia warned of the possibility of a reduction in the range due to a lack of aseptic packaging. This was reported by the Izvestia newspaper, citing the largest company in this field.

Biden is not governing the US silly boy.

I still do not understand. Any good winning strategy must be flexible so as not to depend on any particular tactical setback. Putin certainly has a very good, flexible and winning strategy in Ukraine. Even if events do not develop according to the scenario that you yourself have come up with, and does not fit into the time frame that you have set for yourself. I have already said above and I will repeat now - time works for Russia.

Russia can well afford to advance slowly, grinding Ukrainian reinforcements approaching the front with artillery from a safe distance and destroying military equipment supplies from the West. Russia may well allow even to stop the advance completely and spend the winter to look at developments on the economic front - how Europe will react to the shortage of gas and food. A special operation is not a sprint, but a marathon. We're in the second phase of the operation now, and there could be a dozen of them. There is a high probability that the operation will not end in Ukraine and Russia will also have to demilitarize and denazify the Baltic States, Finland and Poland - their rhetoric towards Russia has been very aggressive lately.

Have you reported the posts?

If 10 or 20 members report these posts as plagiarism in the right way (with the source), then I don’t see how anyone could ignore it. That member cannot be above the rules, even though P&S is one of the boards that is obviously completely out of the focus of the administration.

Learn to respect other people's opinions; that's how civilized people communicate. I just suggested another way to get the mods' attention quickly, and you called it "abject nonsense." Keep reporting the old way, but don't blame anyone when your cases are ignored.

How does a report of yours look like for a post of his that should be deleted? What do you write there? Do the same type of reports you make get handled in other forum boards?

Share a few of those links here...

Where's Flying Hellfish when you need him? (seriously, where did he go off to?)

Suchmoon, not being an aficionado of the P&S section, I have to ask: do you visit there to participate in the insanity or just to help keep it clean via reporting?

If it's the latter, I'd suggest taking a mental health break from it for a while.  P&S has always been a cesspool of conspiracy theories and whatnot, probably ever since it was created.  At least that's what I've heard; it's been on my ignored sections list pretty much since I registered.

Does P&S even have an active moderator right now?

What the average time it takes for 1 confirmation?  What about 2?  What about 3?  And what about 6?  

does it depend on how much sat they use for sending fee?

Would you say about 10 mutes per each confirmation?  could you ever get 6 confirmation in less than 30 minutes

or it will take about an hour or so no matter what?

Don't you think that Icopress entered his comment into the forum to get responses from forum members? He could have posted it on the laundromat bulletin board where he does his laundry. Or he could respond to the opinions of other people posting here, in the thread. If he doesn't want responses, he could have locked it right after he posted it.

If he doesn't read English, perhaps you could translate this post to him.

My investment is for the long term but I can not help feel down when I see 10000s get knocked off my investment I think this is natural to have self doubt?
