If the Earth is flat, then explain seasons. How is it winter in the northern hemisphere and summer in the southern hemisphere at the same time?

In an ironic twist people flagged by NASA as "getting to close to the REAL truth" are called Black Arrows...  Black Arrows are dealt with in many different ways.  Most of the time we wipe their memories but other methods that I can't discuss are used from time to time.

Now I don't want to alarm anyone but I did see a memo come over the Notbatphone.  It seems a certain thread has garnered some pretty high up attention...

I can't say anymore I've already said way to much and I don't want to put myself in anymore jeopardy.  Keep on digging Notbatman, you're so close to the real truth but be extra careful, peace out!

It's a sad day indeed.
I followed this genius man along with Michiu Kaku since I was a kid. I always loved his vision of the world and all the theories he endorsed.
What made him special was the fact that even though he a had a severe physical disability he never ceased to do what he loved. This was and still is a great example to me and one that will share with my kids.

Unfortunately I still didn't have time to see the movie about him, once I get some time, I'll get the kids to watch it with me to realize that everyone can be what they want to be.

RIP Stephen Hawking.
A GREAT mind and person was lost today. The greatest Scientist of our era.


You're right he was much more than just a great mind, he really was a great man!  A real humble genius that showed everyone that you can overcome major adversities.

To me he will always be the coolest fucking nerd EVER!

A great mind passed away today.  RIP Stephen Hawking, thanks for everything!

Stephen Hawking, one of the most influential physicists of the twentieth century and perhaps the most celebrated icon of contemporary science, has died at the age of 76.

Don’t simply be proud of these titles:  Make them signify an achievement to be proud of!

What the fuck is with these fucking people...  Dude its a fucking web forum.  The rank achieved here is nothing to be proud of...




Potato.

Well then I will be sure to let my colleagues know they are working with a true Hero.  Wonder if I will get a parade?  It is kinda Heroic being able to log into here long enough to obtain the rank, just imagine the tales I can regal about the heroic deeds I've accomplished.  Surely I'll be lavished with gold and gems and admired by many!

Holy shit people get a fucking life that isn't tied to this fucking forum...  Go outside take a walk enjoy nature, get a fucking blowy (from a real person not some 15 yr old boy pretending to be a 19 yr old women on the webz), smoke a dube, have a glass of wine.

When you start saying things like"blah blah blah insult to the word hero" and "can you really call someone legendary".  Hey dude it's a forum, guess what those ranks actually mean, NOTHING ABSOLUTELY NOTHING LOLOLOLOLOLOL

A persons trust, merit, and rank are completely inconsequential because interwebz and also have zero bearing on the content of their posts.
1226  Other / Meta / Re: Merit & new rank requirements on: March 12, 2018, 06:05:26 PM
then selling Merit Rank-ups should be no different.

I think this is a fantastic idea.  Let me take it just a bit further!  There are so many people complaining about the new merit system that there should be a way that a user can opt (pay a small fee perhaps) in to using the old activity ranking system.  This way everyone will be happy!!  If you like the merit system opt in to it, if you prefer the old ranking system opt in to it, win-win!!!

Oh I almost forgot to mention, opting in to the old ranking system comes with one little sacrifice.  Anyone opting in to the old ranking system would have there signature privileges removed permanently, NO SIG FOR YOU.

Now lets see all these whining shitposters and farmers opt in to the old system they loved sooooooo much...


I think that the merit system is like various forms of public insurance.  

The way that the system works the best is if everyone follows the same system, so paying for an opt out system would likely not be a reasonable solution on any kind of overall practical basis - even if there may be limited ways to go with this kind of opt out in limited circumstances, perhaps?


So being able to buy whitelist is ok for Brand New members? You can't have it both ways.


The administrators of the forum can do whatever they want, even if it is contradictory.  I am not advocating any change, and therefore, I have no burden to back up what I am saying.  I am just pointing out a problem with the concept of opting out  - or having a parallel system.   if you are advocating some kind of opt out system then you have the burden to show with either logic or evidence that it is practical, and you need to convince theymos, not me.


Sorry for the double post (to lazy to edit the last one lol).  TBH I meant this more metaphorically. Shitposters are here exclusively for the sig space and good members enjoy some passive income for something they are already doing.  In reality almost no one would opt in for the old activity ranking system (with sig space permanently removed). 
1227  Other / Meta / Re: Merit & new rank requirements on: March 12, 2018, 05:36:39 PM
Yeah all the whining shitposters and farmers who doesnt like the merit system dont pay attention to what theymos stated before about removing signature and all kind of way to get money from forum if the merit is not succesful enough to decrease all the shitposter and spammer in this forum.
I guess the really want that to happen.

I certainly would like to see sig's removed from the forum.  I know I am in the vast minority on this one but hey a guy can dream can't he?!

I've never had any qualms with anybody derailing my threads. In fact, I most the time welcome it.

Blue Crappy Pants aka Bruce Peterson was a BFL shill prior to being employed at BFL all thanks to my efforts, I being invited to tour the plant and Bruce asked if he could tag along. I agreed and we shared a hotel room together the night before. We went to the plant and had lunch with Josh and David, BFL picking up the tab. Later that night there was a meetup where Goat and his wife attended. Back to the plant, I left after lunch to meetup with an ex-BFL employee (didn't pan out, for something came up on his end) and Bruce stayed behind for more of the dog-and-pony show. He was hired then. During his interim, he stole from BFL. Later, he, too, had his local police contact my local police to cease stalking him on this forum.

Do you remember the following that cause Sonny to go totally ape shit at the office upon being made of aware of it? (I'll you three guesses as to who nibbknot IS, the first two don't count)

I left most recently, and since I'm no longer under their control I can now share with anybody interested two important things.

One, bcp19, whose first name is Bruce, DOES work for BFL. Ask him and I'm sure he'll say yes, but if he doesn't, I have no problem with linking to pictures of him while employed at the plant. He's been there since last fall. I seriously don't know what game he's playing on this forum and what he's trying to accomplished, but I'm pretty sure it ain't good. To be fair, he is a nice guy.

Second. BFL received chips months ago that were intended for what you guys consider the Monarch. Thousands of miners have already made at BFL's plant using those new chips. Ask Bruce that also. He knows. Since you're now curious as to where all them miners went and are continuing to go, here... http://www.coinware.io/. Moreover, HashTrade, NimbusMining, LiquidBits, and Netsolus. The lead guy for CoinWare is named James (I'm not stating his last name because I don't want to get in trouble, but I'm sure you smart guys can figure it out). James visits the plant a lot, walking around assembling unescorted then heads to the offices of management to discuss whatever.

This post is valid https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=262052.msg6877963#msg6877963 because I was there when two guys from HashFast (don't get the name mixed up with HashTrade) walked the plant with Sonny, David, and Josh.

I honestly don't want to get mixed up with this mess because I have a family and all. BFL treated me pretty fairly while I was there, but feel it important for you guys who have millions still tied up and waiting for equipment to be aware. It's a shame that you guys who ordered first will probably be the last to get your miners. At least when you do get them, you'll make your money back, even if it takes longer than you planned, if I understand correctly how the whole thing works. Still, it's a screwed up deal.

One more thing, for what it's worth. Everybody in the plant knows about Sonny's past, and some not mentioned here, and we all joke about how we are (was for me, now) working for crooks and scumbags, most the time in Spanish when management is not around, of course.

Heck, I might as well add this tidbit, even though it doesn't matter none except to Sonny's girlfriend. Sonny has been screwing one of the pretty Mexican girls in assembly since early last year. I'm not going to mention her name for obvious reasons, but everybody at the plant knows it except Sonny's girlfriend who have a son together. I don't see that relationship lasting too much longer due to them fighting a lot, where then Sonny may start seeing the Mexican girl full time then.

Sorry if I said too much. All I wanted to say was about Bruce and CoinWare and how you guys are getting screwed big time.

Peace.


I remember when the nibbknot account posted, it was epic!  I will be totally honest, I had no idea it was you until you revealed such!  The BCP news was pretty big to me.  I couldn't understand why BCP was suckin off BFL so hard.  It made no sense, people had asked him if he worked for BFL and (prior to him working there) he said truthfully no.  No one I guess asked him AFTER he actually started working there if he did or not.  It was all such slimey word fuckery that was so typical BFL, one couldn't help but chuckle just a bit!

I remember Miss Pierce, the poor lass in charge of Sonny K's V's parole!  It really is to bad the judge never made good on his toothbrush comment!

I remember the barn wood stories, did you steal any good wood lately?  All the hard on jokes, while your humour could be a little different at times, I always laughed because it's my kind of humour as well!

I remember something about goat fucking, or was it llama fucking, or was it a goat fucking a llama, no wait it was a 3 way with a goat, llama and and old dude in a pink tutu, oh hell I can't remember but you get the point!

In the end the FTC swoops in to protect everyone.  I will say, it's nice to see BFL out of business, it's nice to see the people (that's you my friend) made a difference (however small it was), it's nice to see we were right about BFL and there illegal business practices and how incredibly stupid and short sighted JZ and BFL's attitude to miners was, it's nice to see JZ get tossed to the curb like the garbage he is, its nice to see Sonny and his crew are not on this forum sucking off millions of dollars from would be stary eyed newb miners.

It's a little less pleasant to think about the fact that Sonnny et al basically "got away" with it.  While I guess one could argue something like justice was served with the FTC case, I always hoped for a bit more so for me they kinda "got away with it".  It's not pleasant to think it should have been relatively easy with the amount of coins handled (from internal mining as well as sales) for these donkey dick licking scamming thieving cunts to hide some coins.  These fucks could possibly be sitting on a nice chunk of change currently...  It's also very unpleasant to think they could be here right now pulling the latest greatest anonymous ICO scam, I mean Sonny K would never do such a thing but Sonny V boy that's right up his fucking alley...

Anyways thanks for the walk down memory lane.  You did make a difference and there are still a few people left here that remember and appreciate it even if we don't say it!  Grin

Based on your distribution of merits in this thread I doled out a few sM upthread to the worthy posters as well.

Excuse sir i am wish reviw your mine posting is posting for good quality please sir i learnt for her many great thangs after merit sir is airdrop for join

+2 sM because your post was 100% grammatically correct with a hint of humor.

Please note: No more sM will be doled out based on grammar and humor only.

Whats grammar??  Merit from the legendary scam buster (and goat fucker iirc!) P.G, as the great Mel Brooks said in a movie once, "it's good to be king"!!

Hey P.G did you ever find out what happened to Sonny K, I'm still a little worried about that motherfucker!

That was so clever of Sonny Vleisides pretending to be a Sonny K of BFL, coming off as there being two Sonnys there.

I'll say it again. Of all the thieving and fiasco connected with BFL, there was only one person convicted of a crime. You're correct if you guessed it's the person who penned this post. Now I'm forbidden to come within so many feet of Josh Zerlan's BTC-House because he fears for his life. Hey, maybe with any luck Josh will extend my restraining order for another year while he fondles little boys at the skydiving arcade in KC.

I don't want to derail your thread but oh man those were the days eh!  $25 mil in investomers money, buying AR-15 for protection, "we will mine on the test net for burn in. We will not mine on the bitcoin network", JZ firing customers, BFL having foam pitchforks actually made "BFL why you no ship",  Slok the mod on the BFL shout box oh what a dreamboat he was!  And of course last but not certainly not least Blue Crappy pants.  Who could forget that shill, now that was real shilling, not like the kids today try to shill!  Grin

I think the kids scamming today should go back and read the old school scams.  Now days any old retard can make a coin or token and spew out a scam in minutes.  The new kids on the block aint got nothin  on the OG old school serial scammers of days gone by, those fuckers knew how to scam but good!

Anyways sorry for the derail bud, but there's still a few of us here and we remember so I just wanted to give a shout out!  Roll Eyes

It is only "cringe" if you read it as a genuine attempt at cybersex, which it clearly is not.

If you read it with a large pinch of salt, as intended, it is in equal measures funny and informative, which makes it immediately better than 95% of posts.

It's cringe because some old dude creeping on what he thought was an extremely young women.  It's even more cringe when you learn it turns out the creepy old dude was actually fooled by a 15 yr old boy...  It's just gets plain sad when the old dude takes so long to figure out he was a mark all along.

Fair points. Perhaps I'm just naive assuming it was all a big joke. Surely people don't seriously try to chat people up using cryptography metaphors, especially someone clearly intelligent like Nullius?

Joke or not its weird.  It may have even been a plan just to get the "alia" account some merit but it's still creepy.  I don't want to speculate their real intentions because ultimately those intentions don't make much difference to me.

At best its wildly inappropriate, weird and just eww, at worst it's down right creepy as fuck IMHO.  Whatever way you slice it its gross!

IMHO

I have read a lot about the guidelines for posting, however it seems to me that the "quality" issue is rather subjective, than objective.  It is still a matter of a personal opinion of those who give out merit, rather than the principal of "fair for all". I mean, I have seen TMAN refuse someone merit just for the way someone called him "Sir". It is not what merit is supposed to be about, in my opinion. I believe discrimination is a world-wide problem nowadays, it is sad to see it here as well. I do hope that something will be done to achieve the "fair for all" status in this forum.

It begins. Bitmain's starting to undercut the price and delivery time by nearly two months.

Will Halong be able to weather the price drops and remain competitive/profitable? I think we'll find out by fall with reliability reports of the units running more than half a year from now. If they carry forward with a competitive attitude, preferably as a leader and not a follower in pricing, they'll get more market share.

It might almost be funny to see what happens if Halong is able to piss in Bitmains Cornflakes!!  My money would be on Bitmain in the case of a price war!!!!
