No, but BFL as an entity is limiting it's contact with Bitcointalk.  I'm speaking merely as myself and as a pool operator.  On the rare occasions BFL intends to interact with this community, I will post as BFL_Josh.  

BFL needs to corral its users where it can control the discussion better and limit conversation of unwanted topics. BFL forums are a BFL friendly sandbox where negative opinions of BFL are not allowed.

And Bitcointalk is just the opposite!

There are plenty of fence sitters getting sore bums too remember!

The sheer amount of potential subterfuge, aimed at ALL THE ASIC manufacturers is of some concern to me.

Surely at least one of the main 3 ASIC developers aren't conducting sock puppet trolling of these ASIC threads? I recognise that it's impossible to weed out the commercial subterfuge from the plain old-fashioned anti-bitcoin variety, and so as a way of creating tension between the developers themselves (as well as uncertainty amongst buyers), this sort of thread is pure gold for the Bitcoin-hater contingent.

I do find it painfully ironic that every thing about Bitcoin is based on trust, yet no one seems to trust ANYTHING.

There are many elements on this forum who could very well be the undoing of bitcoin.

I think the undoing of bitcoin will be done by career criminals and scam artists like pirate and Sunny V (of BFL) who is a convicted criminal scam artist.

Why did you not use bold? If you had increased the size AND bolded your statement, I would have believed you.

Got quite a belly laugh from that.

Hell if he had chucked an italics tag around it as well I would have charged off to cancel my order.
