The Wire, Deadwood, True Blood, Spartacus, Sons of Anarchy, The Shield, Battlestar Galactica, Eastbound and Down, are some I haven't seen mentioned yet.

Actually I strongly considered adding you to mine a couple times, since you are a pretty active trader and have been around for a long time, but some of your feedback seems based on personal problems. For example one of your feedback comment says just "sucks dick", and another is "bully troll".

Probably best he stays anonymous, anything and everything in his past would be used to discredit bitcoin. Got arrested once at a protest? 'Bitcoin was invented by a TERRORIST'.

inputs had a nice little bitcoin foundation badge. That should probably count for something.

Silver member, as I recall.  Yes, this reflects poorly on the Foundation.  Hope that means something.
Educate me if I am wrong Bitcoin Foundation membership is purchased. Im sure there must be some sort of approval https://bitcoinfoundation.org/support

Apparently he lied to several people about his id so no telling if he told them the truth, plus doubt they'd give it up for anything less than a warrant/subpoena.

I'm not ignoring the issue, just taking a wait and see approach, I think it will resolve itself without my interference.

Also regarding default trust, I've been adding more people lately so issues like this are bound to pop up. I think more people deserve a chance, there should be more diversity, more representative of the community. People shouldn't be afraid to leave people on the list negative feedback, nor should people on the list have no fear of leaving 'bad' negative feedback for others.
1646  Other / Meta / Re: Abuse of the trust system by Vod on: November 09, 2013, 08:30:43 PM
That list refers to 'custom' trust lists, people who have setup their own lists, which may or may not include default trust.
1647  Other / Meta / Re: DefaultTrust is BAD. Very bad. on: November 09, 2013, 08:12:04 PM
I'm not too impressed by his usage of the trust system in this instance, leaving feedback over that is just silly. Hopefully they can work it out...You should probably make another thread about it though, I doubt vod will see this thread.

Haha you're just doing your job, and you're doing it well if it pisses people off Tongue

I don't hold it against anyone if they have a problem with it/me, cause I'd probably feel the same way if I weren't a mod.

Yes reports are pretty helpful, it's a big forum, lot of stuff to look through.

1652  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Theymos: What the fuck is up with BFL and TradeFortress? on: November 08, 2013, 05:09:02 PM
Two scammers and we aren't seeing any scammer or untrustworthy tag.

TradeFortress is a little controversial (although I believe he is firmly in the scammer camp for deliberately misleading newbies).

But there can be absolutely no question that BFL is a bad actor and needs the label right away.

Why are you abdicating your responsibilities?



Bull crap. I will defend TradeFortress until I die. Not a scammer. Legit. CoinChat is legit. Inputs.io is legit. Ripple scam is legit. Glados.cc is legit. TradeFortress is legit. 'Nuff said.

BFL is not a scam. They only take years to release miners. It keeps the price from changing dramatically.

You sir, are a moron.

Still standing by this?

Actually that's pretty damn coincidental...last online on the 22nd, when was the 'hack' again? I smell sockpuppet.

I do what I can, which can be a lot sometimes. A lot of it gets spit up between the local mods, I just get what slips through, and cover when they aren't on, I tend to be on when others aren't. Also cover the forums that don't have local mods. Our times do seem to overlap, so you'd probably see me a lot more than the others.
1655  Other / Meta / Re: My trust score has gone down dramatically? on: November 08, 2013, 04:36:51 PM
Lot of convoluted theories in here. Simplest explanation is that theymos has changed the algorithm, since this is the first major shift in trust on someone who had a lot of positive trust. I noticed that even after 6 or 7 people on the default list had given him neg trust he was still at 17x something.

Right. The Trust system isn't really designed to deal with "long con" situations, but it was performing particularly badly in this case. I changed the algorithm to more severely limit the maximum number of positive trust points you can get per month.

(I'm not saying that TradeFortress is or is not a scammer at this point, but someone with more than 30% negative trust ratings should have a negative trust score.)

I also removed TradeFortress from DefaultTrust (early yesterday), so his entire branch of the trust network is now untrusted by default.

When you say thirty percent neg. This only counts if it is trusted?

I'd assume so. Else...well, look at my trust page.

I think he mad.

Do you really think banning that account will change anything? They've been banned many times, going back many months, they are not going to stop, period. There's a reason most reputable companies don't conduct business on forums.

Oh and this one.

I can't fathom from your post anything at all about what you actually want people to invest in.  What is it that you're actually going to be producing with the funds people lend you?
I'd be willing to discuss it in more detail via private message if you are interested.  The important thing is that I have a solid plan of action to produce this money, I just don't have the initial investment cost, I may be very much broke after my upcoming traffic court case in which I may lose my license, setting my plans back another year or so.  I can turn a $100 investment into $3000 of revenue, legally, without relying on others.

I am willing to be very generous as far as interest rates, we can work with small short terms loans to build trust if you wish.  I have no intentions (nor have I demonstrated such in the past) of running off with a small amount of money when I can do so much more with it and benefit both parties involved.  Karma can be a bitch.

I don't see how asking for a $100+ loan is irrational when I have a solid plan to back it up.  Naysayers, please carry on.

If something was changed why wasen't there any announcement?

I don't know, I'm not theymos lol. That was just my (relatively boring) theory.
