Once I get my offline PC back then yes - I will be happy to do this.

This has been one of the most unpleasant experiences in my life - I have no want to repeat it.

Sure - why don't you PM him?

I feel sorry for those that don't understand having a wife (as clearly most forum poster's here don't).

You can't *reason* with an angry wife - you have to just try and fix the issue.

Apparently the mods decided to delete the most offensive posts and for that I am happy and I am sure once I show my wife this my offline PC will be returned to me.

I don't know why people think that it is so important to allow other people to be "assholes to each other* - personally I think "peace" is a better idea but in any case thanks to the mods that helped sort this out.

If @theymos is worried about me then once I get my offline PC back I will transfer the forum's funds to an address he gives me.

Again - even if I can't access my offline PC I will not *steal* the forum's BTC - is that clear enough yet?

I have stated that I will still honor my obligation about the 50 BTC even if I never get my offline PC back (so that will come out of my own funds).

This is not about trying to extort the forum but simply about why is there no moderation about such posts (after they were reported several times).

If you can't see why my wife is *angry* then I think you need to re-read the posts.

Do you guys not think that some sort of "decency" should exist at all?

Sure if you guys want to show that "we agree that women should be denigrated" then do absolutely nothing.

It is only my wife that you are hurting but clearly you don't care about that.

Also my wife is only asking that "off-topic" posts are removed from that topic - is that so unreasonable (and any replies I made should also be deleted)?

I am having troubles with trying to run Bitcoin software here but you are can send me an email to ian@ciyam.org or ian@ciyam.com if you think that I have been hacked.

My offline funds are dependent upon my offline PC.

I will try to calm my wife down but with the mods seemingly happy to see her insulted that isn't really going to be very easy.

This forum has really gone "too far" about letting people "attack others" and not helping anyone being attacked.

Agreed - even if I can never access my offline computer again I will try to repay the BTC so this is not some game that I am playing to steal 50 BTC at all.

Seriously my wife saw the posts by that asshole and got so angry that she took my offline computer and now I don't know now where it is.

So the mods on bitcointalk.org have now become people that call others "absolute cunts".

Well done @theymos - you created a monster.

When I can't access the offline computer that has the funds then I am sorry but there is nothing much I can do.

You are welcome to try and sue me if you think that will work (I don't think that my wife cares much about your opinion).

Then come and talk to my wife who is so angry she won't even talk to me.

For sure you are not going to do that even if I give you her QQ - so don't give me bullshit unless you are prepared to actually do something.

Of course I am sure most forum members don't want to see such a topic but unfortunately I had my offline computer taken from me and have no other way to regain control of the 50 BTC that I am holding for the forum.

If you think it is fine that the forum should just allows insults of everyone's partners then please start insulting the mods partners as clearly that should be okay (am sure they will all be very happy to have their wives read posts about being "maids").

You can argue with my wife about that if you like but I have lost control of the offline computer.

Unfortunately my wife saw these posts by some forum troll:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1081959.msg11558833#msg11558833

I sent numerous reports to mods to delete the off-topic posts but they seemingly decided that such posts are "fine and dandy" in this forum.

Result is that my wife has now confiscated my off-line computer that has the 50 BTC that the forum has asked me to look after.

If the forum ever wants those 50 BTC back then I suggest you might want to delete those offensive posts.

Also if I were the forum member who made those posts I'd never plan to travel to China in the future.

Well as much as it has been fun to have you try and troll me (you failed but don't worry - none have succeeded) I have other things to do so I am going to *unwatch* this topic now.

Of course that is going to "piss you off" as being the troll that you are you want to keep me engaged with your stupid stuff - but I am not your therapist or your helper so I guess you'll just have to find me on another topic if you want to keep trolling me.

Yup - you are so desperate that you'll take any trophy whatsoever and are too afraid to even try and live in China (as you know that you are so weak that you wouldn't even survive one week here).

If anyone on this forum took any of your posts seriously before then you have *fucked that up totally now*.

So well done on being the "morons of the month" - we should probably have a trophy for you (and your alt).

Yet it was Gavin who said 8MB (you can check the article that the OP linked to - no mention of 8MB there at all).

So either Gavin is the *devil* who proposed 20MB or he is the *devilI* that accepts 8MB - somehow you seem to have everything twisted up that it has anything at all to do with what *I say* or most others.

My guess is now that you must now think that somehow Gavin is *involved with the Chinese* about all this.

You cannot scale up any "decentralised" system to work as efficiently as any "centralised" system.

Anyone who thinks otherwise is "deluded" (as even Gavin has stated the same).

That doesn't mean that Bitcoin can't "scale up" but it means that VISA/Mastercard could always scale up bigger.
