Look, your lying is old news. But exposing you never gets boring.
You shut him down so hard that he never came back to the forum, lol.
Not really...FatFork's post was just the straw that broke the camel's back. It didn't matter whether I was right or wrong about a topic, there was bias that followed a lot of where I was on this forum. Obviously, I was too outspoken, I was stepping on some toes, people also criticized that I was getting paid to post and that I used that opportunity as a factor as to whether to stay here or not (ironically, while also being paid to post). I decided that I was not going to feed the untrue narratives that I could forming, ultimately leading to my existence in this forum being narrowed down to a "liar" by FatFork or a "troll" by icopress. I saw that I had two choices,
1. Defend my honor against these untrue statements against known forum gangs (and likely not have succeeded in doing so, right and wrong aside)
2. Just leave this place for a while, since it was becoming exhausting anyway.
I am grateful that I picked number 2. I needed a break from some of the nasty characters that still somehow dwell around here.
This aside. I'm going to say one more thing about this topic since it was quite significantly derailed. I still maintain that one who conducts a thorough look into ninjastic.space will find relationships between members in the sportsbet thread. If we deduct the sportsbet thread and these relationships from the merit equation, these members who just might even be or more ranks behind where they are currently if it weren't for the merits shared in that thread. I think there is gang-like behavior there, probably external connections as well, and I don't think that's a baseless comment to make based on the information that's readily available to anyone.
So, why not post my own investigation, as you suggest earlier nutildah?
1. My credibility was already under attack. Even with a large amount of proof, I'm sure these members would have found a way to derail the investigation into something against me personally.
2. I am convinced that there are powerful members who collude with those who have interests with casinos like sportsbet. Even with a large amount of proof, I'm sure these members would have also found a way to derail the investigation into something against me personally.
3. Due to the above, my efforts would not have been a waste of time, however it would have added to exhaustion.
On the other hand, I think a member like yourself could have conducted this investigation, you'd not have to worry about point 1 and 2. Maybe point 3, depending how many people actually care.
Instead, the thread was derailed.
Anyway. I (kind of) digress. TLDR: I left because this place at the time, it was exhausting. With that in mind, I'm making a conscious effort not to participate in the fight for what I think is right in this forum, stay away from forum drama where necessary, and avoid interacting with energy depleting members who are exhausting to go back and forth with...to the best of my ability anyway. I don't think I'll be active enough for any of this to even matter anyway, though I thought I'd leave my closing statement. Hopefully, it's a closing statement.
They're not baseless though...Just have ninjastic.space open on one monitor and the sportsbet thread open in another, and look at the flow of merits between the most active participants over the last 20+ pages. You will see that very low quality posts are frequently merited there, and that is only one sign of the abuse that is surrounding the sportsbet.io brand and fan-base.
If you want to define quality, when it comes to individual perspective, you clearly can’t! Just let that not ache your head. While going over the forum yesterday, reading what I could, I saw a user post;
“Go fuck yourself, you’re a piece of shit” or something like that. Don’t want to quote the post excerpt am moved to but, it got merited! Now, you’ll ask yourself how is that any quality post? It’s just a line and nothing more! Yet, it got merited by a high profile and the posts was between one high profile to another.
You really don’t get a say on that! Someone is probably having fun with what he or she sees and if it’s enough to throw some of those Smerit there, then it’s okay. If participants in sportsbet.io decides to do some meriting in their thread, you ain’t going to do nothing of it.
It's not really the same circumstance. It's not about one isolated post like what you have made there, it's more about few members saying short responses that no one would normally merit, and the same people meriting them. A circle, if you will, that exists over time within one thread and between certain people.
I guess I should just stop being ambiguous and share the DM I sent well before this thread ever existed.
To gain some insight, take a look at ****'s trust profile: ***
- *** and *** have met in real life.
- *** and *** have met in real life.
- *** has attended a sportsbet.io event in which ***** seems to have met the owner of sportsbet.io and ***
To see what posts are merited, take a look at ninjastic: redacted URL
- You can see that majority of merits come from valueless posts (in terms of value to BitcoinTalk) in the sportsbet.io thread, merits mostly coming from sportsbet.io employees such as *** and the sportsbet.io account and personal "friends" such as *** and others from the trust list.
To see how much merit has been shared, take a look at BPIP: redacted URL
- *** has sent 126 merits to *** to date
- *** has sent 284 merits to *** to date
- *** has sent 49 merits to *** to date
- sportsbet.io has sent 16 merits to *** to date
That's 410 merits from two users, 475 between all four. Or another way of reading it, 333 Merits from personally met users. 142 Merits from (potential) colleagues, also met in real life.
Aside from seemingly legitimate merits from a donation campaign, **** has been accumulating merit extremely quickly from one singular thread, sportsbet.io, for rather meaningless posts. Filter out the merits from the donation campaign on ninjastic and you will see that basically all of the rest of the merit are from what woudl usually be considered valueless posts in the sportsbet.io thread from the users above.
While I think this is a bit unfair on people who legitimately put effort into contributing to Bitcoin and the BitcoinTalk forum, I want to hear what you think. I will overlook it if you think that if it's something worth overlooking. I trust your guidance and opinion which is why I'm messaging you about this
I've changed all usernames to *** to prevent any drama. Otherwise, all content is original from the date. I sent this to LoyceV on April 05 2023. If anyone doubts it, ask him.
it should be noted that these merit numbers have increased by 100-400% since I sent this PM.
There's your investigation nutildah.
Gee, 3 whole merits given out across 2 sportsbet.io posts. I didn't realize the problem was so serious. Clearly this is an egregious violation of forum law and the charges could very well result in imprisonment. I'm going to write a letter to my local congressman right away. I have just one question for you:
Have you tried crying about it?
It spans 800+ merits and that is just involving what's been given to one user. Without these merits, he'd be a Hero member, and at the point of legendary...he wouldn't even be a senior member. Again, this does not include the other members who are a part of this "gang".
I don't think there's a need to be condescending, you're capable of seeing it for yourself, it almost seems like you are choosing not to. Either way, you've made your position clear. So how about from now forward we leave this here and let third parties (people who have not already posted in this thread) give their opinion?
I'd appreciate if anyone wants to talk about me and my reputation that they go and make a thread in the rep board instead of continuing that discussion here too.
