Which holocaust, anyway? Nobody ever talks about the holodomor.

I voted (D), because I know I couldn't do any better than Infofront. A thankless job, almost invisible if swiftly managed. I would also like a few more distracting posts deleted - in the direction of (B), not A or C. The problem is drawing a straight line and, more importantly, spending the energy - physical and emotional - to implement it. Calling him out is really a bit unforgiving.
Let's be honest: We all do take turns in engaging such unsavoury characters. I agree that the auto-propagation of /ignore's to direct quotes would be quite useful.
TL;DR Necessary evil. Deal with it. Use that button if you must.

I found the new poll to be quite humorous, and to see that Infofront is interested in what the masses have to say on the topic. He surely does a decent job with moderation, and I believe him when he says that he does spend some time deleting some posts.. but also disclosing that he does not have the power to ban.. but I would imagine that if he wanted to get someone banned, there may be some weight there for him to report some of the more abusive patterns, which many of us recognize coming from the bug... I know of two guys who found their way onto the "Never Delete" list.

Capitalization of the company is a financial indicator representing the market value of all issued securities by the issuer at a certain point in time. And Bitcoin's capitalization does not quite fit this definition. Because all the shares can be sold to one investor, and with Bitcoin it does not work out that way.

I don't think "fake news" is the problem. The problem is that most people are stupid and can't think critically.

Visa in UK and EU broken, sorry for your loss. Prolly a bad server, or Russians. It's like the 60's back here.
@VisaNewsEurope We are currently experiencing a service disruption which is preventing some Visa transactions in Europe from being processed. We are investigating the cause and working as quickly as possible to resolve the situation. We will keep you updated.

It's worse than that. I have found that most people can not think abstractly. As soon as I attempt to use abstract reasoning normal people accuse me of changing the subject...

Why do all experts, whales and dickheads insist that capitulation has not occurred and cry, beg, scream, insist for lower prices?
I saw capitulation on Feb 5th!
True capitulation about 8 bleedin' weeks from an all-time high? Don't be daffy. There goes my last merit. I hope no one else posted such sensible stuff later on. yeah..how does that work.... I was legendary when I got some....so confused on what happens when you spend it all? When you spend all of your sMerit, you will not be able reward any more mertis until you get more with one of the following two ways: a) You are one of the 80 sources that get smerit replenished, so you can give out. b)You earn 2 merits which gives you 1 sMerit to give out. I'm already Legendary....does it even matter? I find it difficult to believe I would be likely to be one of 80 folk getting sMerit on Bitcointalk so I guess....when I'm out I'm out...

Then they're ripe for enslavement and the pounding of your authority into them with your mighty weener every night. They'll thank you eventually.

I don't think "fake news" is the problem. The problem is that most people are stupid and can't think critically. Thats been going on since the 1950's operation mockingbird Try this one MKUltra Now thats a program you can be scared of, dont forget they never stopped doing it. How shooters are created Often use psychiatrists patients to scope out victims, bring on the drugs, then push through media content to the home and bang one instant psychopath Mark David Chapman (John Lennon Assassination - politically motivated) - A voice told me to do it (of course it did - CIA much) This stuff you cannot make up The best and dumbest thing about the internet, everyone puts their secrets online. Who was Martin Bryants psychiatrist? Martins “treatment” by Tavistock Institute trained psychiatrists since at least 1984 Martin John Bryant (born 7 May 1967) is an Australian man who is known for murdering 35 people Outcome - Complete removal of citizens guns

it will say something like "you are a merit source, the next x merits will come from your source" on your merit page.

Nobody ever talks about the holodomor.
Because it's a lesser known event, and not filled with as much controversy as the Jewish Holocaust. What I mean by "controversy", is people doubt whether 6 million Jews died during the holocaust, but don't doubt that many Eastern Slavs were starved to death. There's also the extreme right narrative that the Holocaust never happened, so there is also that conspiracy to deal with, whereas Holodomor is generally not disputed in the historical context. I think the holocaust was created to drive the narrative away from holodomor Worked very well. In the early 1930's a lot of the community started to hear the whispers of deaths in Europe Then all of a sudden antisemitism went full blown. During the 1920s, automaker Henry Ford's weekly newspaper, the Dearborn Independent (with a circulation of 700,000) launched a vicious campaign against what he termed "The International Jew" which he accused of everything from threatening the capitalist system to undermining the moral values of the nation, and finally he even held them responsible for World War I. Why would the world not be outraged about holodomor? Easy see below

Denial of the HolodomorYou can find fringe deniers of anything. Half the world denies the Armenian holocaust ever took place. Maybe if Armenians were disproportionately wealthy, had disproportionate power in America, and had disproportionate control over every aspect of the media, they could beat the Armenian genocide into our heads from K-12 and at every opportunity.

How old are you, if you don't mind me asking?
Jimbo was floating through space before Earth's creation. Some say he even existed before time, in a universe that was a mirror of our own. Hey! I'm only in my 70s.* *70 to be exact. Haven't had a "real job" since I was 28. Work is the curse of the drinking class. You, I like you. I stopped working for a "salary" when I was 21, been doing this and that after that, mostly because I want to be the boss of my own time and make my own schedules, not get my life ran by someone else. And it has worked mostly fine (if I don't count the fact I had to sell all my BTC in 2015, temporarily). Cheers!  Infofront, moderating the thread is just fine, nothing too offensive here and the freedom of posting should be kept as it is, this thread would die out if it was purely about BTC price. I think this thread, just the way it is, is the reason why many of us come to the forum in general.
