Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion

[podyx]

The trolls are out in force today

[Dump3er]

The level of this thread was always very low, but today it has reached a new all time low. Even me, a so called troll is feeling embarrassed for other peoples statements here.

Gn8 bear and bulltrolls.

Shame we can't ban his IP..

Bitcoiners don't know how to work computers is why

The sock accounts are annoying.
They should just unban his/her NLC account & be done with it.

Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honour, and glory, and blessing.

[inca]

If mods really gave a shit they would ban his other accounts and reinstitute newbie jail. The tone would improve immediately.

Aren't you libertarian bitcoiners against censorship?

Nobody is insulting anybody here. Nobody is breaking the rules of the forum.


Censorship? Really?

This isn't about insults or censorship.

This is about creating endless sockpuppet accounts to spam FUD, which I believe is against forum rules.

Add another dollar or two, just to prove wrong the majority of the poll voters

Who decides what is "spam FUD" and what is not? You?
What about the endless "to the moon! buy!" posts before crashes? should those be considered "SPAM FUD" too?

Creating a new account breaks the rules of the forum?

You are not making sense

I suggest many of you should be open to learning new things. I might be proven wrong, but for now my provided link clearly states:
- cats do not land on their feet after falling from great height.
- real data (~130 cats from NY) is available on falling cats and mortality/injury rate.
- height > 7 stories does increase survival rate based on data

"In a 1987 study, published in the Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association, of 132 cats that were brought into the New York Animal Medical Center after having fallen from buildings, it was found that the injuries per cat increased depending on the height fallen up to seven stories, but decreased above seven stories.[8] The study authors speculated that after falling five stories the cats reached terminal velocity and thereafter relaxed and spread their bodies to increase drag."

I'll probably be lurking again after this one. The forums have gone pretty rotten the last couple of years.

yeah... this is correct... but it is only correct up to a certain height, there is a sweet spot, and anything over that, and the cat gets it.

so go up to the 102 floor of the empire state building and throw the cat off, then it dies.. there is nothing that can stop the mass of the cats head from hitting the ground.

"Terminal velocity" is the maximum velocity of a body as it falls through air.   Mathematically, the velocity at ground increases with the starting height, but beyond a certain height the increase is negligible.

The article says that (1) the terminal velocity for a cat is 100 km/h and (2) that velocity is pretty much attained when falling from 5-6 stories.  One of these must be wrong, since a cat falling from 18 meters (6 generous stories) in vacuum would hit the ground at ~70 km/h only.

I think you should end your life.

Why is this not reported to the authorities and his IP BANDED?!
Cyberbullying is so wrong!  What if he takes you up on it, huh?  As if supporting terrorists with your terrorcoin wasn't enough

oh shush now, that was not bullying , I was trying to help.

Because I care for you.

I love you lamb.

This remark should really be in the 'meta' section, but as part of this thread hosts it's own meta-discussion I'll post it here regardless.

I think the mods just let this thread be. It's the trollbox of bitcointalk.

I can live with that as long as other parts of the forum are protected. It would be nice tho if some mods would just clarify this issue.

[LFC_Bitcoin]

All onto ignore.

The place looks better already.

I think it kind of became the lounge cum news/ update thread as well. There's trolling and then there's psychotic, piffling repetition. I don't think anyone other than our favourite poster deserves to have a few seconds of their lives taken away by inadvertently reading them.

[JimboToronto]

Don't argue with Jimbo now, not when he's all fucked up on Cialis the way he is.
D00d's pretty core, boots that shit right into his spine--uses one of them bigass 50cc rigs with a bent point... then greases himself up with bacon lard & hangs in preteen chatrooms.  That's how he nailed that chick NLC.
Best to just let him alone.

Jeannie, Jeannie, Jeannie.

If there's one thing on which you seem to fixate even more than child abuse, it's intravenous drug use.

You really should seek counseling.

Now I'm seriously considering adding a 3rd name to my ignore list, even if 2 of them are the same troll.

Sigh.

That is really not true, due to the fact that the atmosphere gets less dense at higher altitudes.

Jumping out of a plane at 12,000 feet, an average-sized man will reach a terminal velocity of between 100 and 120 mph in about 12 seconds.

If the same man jumps out at 180,000 feet, his terminal velocity would be supersonic.

Love?!!  Is that what you filthy NAMBLA creepos call it?! 
Keep it to yourself, mister!

Yeah, you do not even need to be that extreme, the difference is noticeable when you jump from 12,500 than if you jump from 18,000ft you climb the hill faster and you accelerate to a higher speed and your terminal velocity decreases as you drop - the "climbing the hill" is more violent at 18,000 ft , noticeably so.

I am talking from experience here.

Fools! You have no perception!
The stakes we are gambling are frightenly high!
We must crush him completely
So like John before him, this Jesus must die
For the sake of the nation this Jesus must die

I can't believe I feel the need to chime in, but I do.
