/btc is full of Hypocrites and Shills (Bitcoin Classic)

[bargainbin]

I mean who cares who wins this thing?
We had us a Mechanical Turk, magical unicorn money that was 100% outside of human caprice asshattery, algorithmically assured of success because ruled by maths and sciences, not corruptible meat.
Whelp, turns out our Mechanical Turk is just as reliant on h00mans as that filthy fiat, only instead of refined gentlemen in fancy suits, our Turk got an aspy midget inside.
See what I mean?

/Bitcoin still has the biggest Subscriber base and things continued like normal. So leave them to discuss what they want and let the people decide where they want to discuss in /Bitcoin. The division is not good for Bitcoin, but unfortunately things like this happens and we will just have to accept it and go on.   

But they are spreading bullshit, and are sabotaging bitcoin.

We need to expose them so that newbies dont get sucked into their cult.

I learned something from my kids when they were young. If you give more attention when they are naughty, it just feeds this bad behavior and when you ignore them they stop doing it. If everyone simply ignored Mike Hearn when he threw the temper tantrum things would have been different. Instead of this, everyone < including the shill media > jumped on this and it got too much attention.

The price suffered, because the CEO of Bitcoin left. < Well according to the misinformed media >

We are giving people with bad behavior too much attention, and they thrive on that and troll away on forums to no end. Let's rather focus on building and promoting unity than wasting time on trolls and kids with bad behavior.

Perhaps, if we whine long enough, and use enough hyperbolic memespeak like rekting and shills... it will all magically get better, and the price will raise to.

I get it, but their madness still needs to be exposed.

Not everyone can think for himself, and those who cant, might get sucked into /btc

It's pretty funny they say that this forum is heavily censored, this is one of the least censored forums that I know of.

Well, usually those complaints are baseless. Those posts get caused by various reasons, but I've yet to see 1 case of censorship that this happen. Just because one doesn't agree with the moderation policy, that doesn't mean that they're being censored (if it applies to them in a case).

I can imagine that mistakes may happen, especially when you're moderating such a huge number of posts each day. But in general, I haven't seen much genuine complains of censorship in the Meta section of the forum.
And the rules of this forum perfectly reflect the 'level of openness', I think.

Yes. I would say that on the bitcoin sub-reddit errors have a higher tendency to happen as due to the nature of reddit. As far as mistakes are concerned, I don't think that moderators make many of them and even if they did, those tend to be miss-clicks (usually get fixed by an admin).

But in general, I haven't seen much genuine complains of censorship in the Meta section of the forum.

Usually they are either rambling, or "I'm right because I'm right" type of threads.

Indeed.

Exactly.

Exactly.

I`m just shocked, it is just twilight zone.

Nazis and communists supporting Bitcoin Classic?? It's just pure maddness, I can't even believe my eyes.


Bitcoin Classic can definitely dig it's grave now, nobody with half a brain will support it anymore.

Even though I wouldn't go as far as calling them nazis and communists, this is pretty insane. Basically what this does is damage only, it helps nobody nor does it help with their goal. Those that support such proposals have seriously become deluded.

Unfortunately, there are still some people who support it. I have no idea why.

Division is bad in this sense, because it can be used as divide and conquer.

But it's not us who come up with silly ideas backed by no evidence.

And then we cannot endorse bullshit, so in this sense either classic supporters return or they will fail, they will be conquered by reason and evidence.

If people cannot get their way, they will try to fuck shit up. I'll say it as it is. Considering they can use anything they want to say as potential ammunition for the media, we'll have to prepare for more storms like it in the future.

Yes they will say that they represent bitcoin, and drag down reputable people with it.

They are just crazy monkeys from our perspective.

statement above applies to both the classic fanboy and the blockstream fanboys

The engineers and PhD's side with Core, so there are no monkeys there .

However in Classic...

The problem is that mainstream media specially, don't give a damn about Bitcoin's well being, they just want to make clickbait articles that will bring more traffic to their website, therefore get more ad revenue, that's all they care about, and they knew Mike Hearn saying "Bitcoin is dead" would make tons of traffic. Those people just don't care. Then we have the website that are shills of Bitcoin Foundation and Classic like bitcoin.com and others, that try to FUD Core. Sad to see, but even all that FUD is not working.

It's those mentally ill people that read it, that is the real problem.

Most of them probably have an iq of a mosquito.

Looks like after many coup attempts, bitcoin classic is finally dying.

No more shady backroom meetings, no more destabilizing hardforks... Bitcoin will be healthy once again:

Looks like their paid & centralized amazon hosting nodes dont really work out for them:

You need not revive these threads, as I'm certain that they will find a reason to justify the current situation. It was quite clear that these nodes are not going to last long, and have mostly been a waste of time and money. Classic will suffer the same fate as XT did, nothing surprising about that.
