2107  Economy / Scam Accusations / MPOE-PR MPEX Representative Instigating FUD and Pedaling Illegal Child Porn on: October 08, 2012, 11:58:18 PM
MPOE-PR Has consistently trolled, no big deal really, but the 24/7 spam of any and all threads about how terrible all other services are so that she/he can influence people to join their exchange. When GLBSE decided to shut down, the announcement was immediately posted that the registration would now be a further price gouge by raising it to 30 bitcoins. Meanwhile the company that peddles the exchange allows hosting of pornea of children, gore and various other "entertainment" that is unmoderated and in my opinion never associated with this forum. Their site belongs on the .onion domains just as posts for hitmen, threats of personal violence are not promoted on the forums either. I am sure there are plenty of other things, but these are just off the top of my head.

When asked to explain any of the items above all I achieved in response was that I had made the ignore list.

I'm laughing at the buyers right now.


Yeah, that was pretty funny to watch.
2110  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer - MtGoxUSD wall movement tracker on: October 08, 2012, 01:36:55 PM
Nope, Wall Observer. Tracking movement of trends on the pricing of the USD on MtGox.
2111  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer - MtGoxUSD wall movement tracker on: October 08, 2012, 01:34:18 PM
We'll see.

I think LTC has a bright future, haters gonna hate.

As proudon said, Litecoins have a bright future because Litecoins can be bought. (!)

lol, you guys are lying to yourselves. You're gambling on a currency nobody has adopted yet outside of speculation.

Speculation goes here, crapping on other peoples investments can be on another topic thread, didnt you learn your lesson yet?
2112  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Nefario on: October 08, 2012, 01:21:37 PM
who did he scam?
At the very least, every GBLSE customer who relied on him to protect their ownership interest in their assets. At the moment, we have no verifiable information explaining why GLBSE was shut down, but it does appear to have been done on Nefario's orders. GBLSE has the only ownership records for GLBSE-listed assets.

(It's entirely possible this was no scam and Nefario's actions were compelled by others. And it's possible he will make good to the extent possible and is really under duress. But it's also possible this was a huge scam all along and many of the assets were fake, owned by Nefario secretly, and Nefario orchestrated the whole thing to walk away with thousands of bitcoins. We don't know, and we shouldn't speculate. But we can't wait forever to act either.)

For the record, Nefario getting a scammer tag was *never* the result I wanted. That really doesn't help anybody. It's the sad result of Nefario's inability, chosen or compelled, to remain silent while others are relying on him to hold up his end of various bargains.


And if we did wait to apply the tag, then he would have further opportunities to pull other confidence scams to drag in a few extra btc while he has the free roaming of the forums without being hindered. 
2113  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Nefario on: October 08, 2012, 12:29:46 PM
I've decided Nefario will get a scammer tag for this. Speculating on intents and motivations behind his actions is fun and all, but it doesn't really have any bearing on whether he broke his contract or not. Like I said in Goat's thread, my role is to decide if he deserves a scammer tag based on his actions. If Nefario can't or won't elaborate on why he took the actions he did, that's his problem and he should take it up with the appropriate people.

Even if he doesn't have control over his current actions (which I doubt), he did have control when he decided to start the business, and he did have control when he made the agreement and sold pieces of the company to the shareholders.

This was a pretty good analogy that made me look at it a different way.

You cant sue people for obeying the law. Which is basically what Nefario is doing,
That is absolutely not true. Otherwise, an unlicensed contractor could make a contract to do some work for you, take your money, and then say, "Sorry, I'm unlicensed. I can't legally do the work."

Quote
and you cant force the shareholders to do something illegal.
Of course, but it's always legal to pay damages. You're certainly right that you couldn't force the contractor in my example to do the work. But you can certainly get your money back alone with any other damages, including punitive damages.

Quote
If it goes well people will get their coins back, it sucks that AMl is involved but you gotta do what you gotta do.
That's pure speculation at this point, at least so far as I know. If the contractor in my example says, "Sorry, the contracting board says I'm not licensed to do the work. Bye.", do you just take his word for it and let him off the hook for any damages you suffered? Asset owners have suffered damages because they relied on GLBSE.

*golf clap*
2114  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Nefario on: October 08, 2012, 11:46:29 AM
I achieved the legendary mpex ignore list, nefario has not commented on anything once. Lots of guesses and hopes of getting coins back. And lots of "I talked to nefario, I know what he is thinking, but I swear I am not a Puppet."

For example, if I had a host who happened to be on the same server as 4chan, I would move my site especially if I was personally acquainted with the owner like you.

There is a difference between allowing unhindered freedom of speech on a site/image board/forum, but even criminals in maximum security prisons hate child molesters and you have willingly associated yourself with someone who supports them. You say there is none on the server? The reason no one wants to check is because sites of that style attract pedophiles like flies since they have no chance of being caught. I would suggest you move your defense to its own thread, no one is going to check your story and neither will I, the server is a cesspool and I like many others would not want to be apart of it even if it is only somewhat true.

At this point, the less you say the less you look like an idiot. Carry on to your heart's content; I won't be seeing your output from this point forward.


There's no reason at this point to believe that users won't get their funds returned.  There might be open conflict between the shareholders, but no-one's suggested that GLBSE has insufficient funds at this point to pay its users.

I'll suggest it.

This is a by-the-book Interscamgro/Bitcoin Consultancy operation. This is how people like Taaki, Strateman, McCarthy & Co scam this community: create fake drama, multiple parties, lost databases, "waiting for X to start repaying" etc. Any person holding BTC on the Global Scam Exchange will be seeing his money back about six months after those scammed by Bitcoinica do.

It's what it is. Don't ever get involved with any of these people again.


Someone likes to call out other people but cannot seem to justify a valid argument when it comes to their own associations. I did not see a denial in any of the responses.

Personally if the PR person cannot come up with a good explanation to justify the association, I would not want to be a part of a probe that would tie my name/username to kiddie porn.
