For years I have been on this forum under this user name, but it's time to hang it up. Too many misunderstandings, too many skeletons in the closet, so to speak. Too easily searchable and tyable to other unrelated things. People all hung up on the trust rating. I meant to quit at 1000 posts, but I was too busy ranting over high GPU and ASIC prices this past month or two.
And this trust rating, by the way, was dented years ago. I never bought or sold anything here to or from anyone. All because I said I fixed computers on the side, and if I ever came across a bitcoin wallet on a PC, those bitcoins were MINE!!! I meant it then, and I mean it now.
Every PC I work on, I check for a bitcoin wallet, and I always will. However, I must also say that finding one is extremely unlikely to happen (and it hasn't happened in the years since 2013), because anyone smart enough to know about bitcoin will not need to call a PC repair person. I found a setting in my profile that I thought would hide or negate the trust rating, but that doesn't seem to work, on my PC it says 0 trust, others still report -16 in forum posts, which is BS. And some people got all butthurt over my posts and hit the trust button, which is ridiculous. I also said that I hoped some 20-something computer nerd mining bitcoins in his parents' basement got hurt or killed in a drunken friday night car wreck or something, and his parents called me to take care of his computer stuff which they knew nothing about. That also has never happened yet. Sheesh people, chill out!
So it's probably best to start with a clean slate, so to speak. I'll have to be accused of being a low post count noob for a while, but that will pass.
I'm not saying I'll never post under this user name again, but I probably won't.
Time to go. Clean slate time. Now I have to think up a good user name. I'll be back. You just won't know it.
