I saw so much intentional FUD (Fear uncertainty and doubt) spammed in both these forums and elsewhere during the latest flashcrash which amounted to blatant manipulation to promote panic selling and push the price as low as possible. I've seen this shit happen during the last 3 flashcrashes now and just despise it and the wanton disregard such behaviour demonstrates for Bitcoin and the community. It's the very least experienced who this hurts; those who perhaps have just bought in to this beautiful thing (as we all want ever more to do) only to witness a crash unfolding before them; and I just can't abide what I sense is happening to a lot of good people when they turn to these forums for advice during such a time only to see a wall of the kind of deliberate shit that people posted just now.
I think a place to, at least, make a record of these FUDdumpers for what they are just maybe could do some good towards cutting it out before it gets really out of hand.

This dickgobbler screamed IN CAPS like a little girl at everyone to 'sell while you still can', but only once the price had bottomed out, of course. Shameful.  |

You think we care?
Bitcoin will be at $50 within 2 weeks, mark my words.
No seriously, mark them.
You are out of your depth.

Why is your username Zooey, yet your profile has your gender set as male?
Bi-gender-curious-much? rofl.

Re: bitcointip, I'm surprised they still bother. The example you posted pales in comparison to this one: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=159053.0Not to mention the filth they posted about Amir Taaki... |
Selling out to advertisers shows you respect neither yourself nor the rest of us.

Too many low-quality posts? Mods not keeping things clean enough? Self-moderated threads let you keep signature spammers and trolls out!

Who fucking cares? If you're making your decisions about buying or selling based on what's posted here, on reddit or on twitter, then maybe you're way out of your league speculating in the first place.
The market will always have people trying to drive the price up and it will always have people trying to drive the price down - it's the nature of the beast. Get over it.

All I can say is that this is Bitcoin. I don't believe it until I see six confirmations.

I fucking care. If you don't care that's fine, but I kinda care that you don't care that I care, even when you don't care. |

Do you care when people are trying to talk up the price because they want to pump and dump or only when they're trying to talk it down? Do you care that the lag on MtGox means the market can't respond in real time? |

Umm ya, people will try to influence you to buy or sell.
Why not make your own decisions?
There are bigger forces than your few BTC you are trying to buy low and sell high. Just buy or sell based on whether you want BTC or not.
