RE: "Mt. Gox is OBSOLETE. STOP USING IT."

[Synaptic]

I had created a thread with the title of this post, which garnered over 3000 views and over 60 replies.

It was deleted.

Not locked. Not moderated.  But expunged.

It was actually full of lively debate from a lot of people other than myself.

Expunged.

Why?

We need to really start bringing attention to the censorship here.

I call shenanigans.  This is obviously a move by the admins of this forum for damage control, to keep Mt. Gox from suffering the fate it so rightly deserves.

[Synaptic]

There is definitely collusion with MtGox by the admins of these forums.  You people are being taken for a ride.  Wake up.

[Man From The Future]

Ah, well, time for a mass exodus to some other forum which will then end up having this happen again?

I can see at least getting rid of anything illegal in the country it's hosted in, so you can keep the forums, but getting rid of this = ...

:s

edit: Although, it may have been a bit provocative? I can't really see how that makes it good to get rid of it...

You wish your posts were subversive, they were just vulgar.

You wish. I actually only had made about 10% of the posts in that thread. It was a community discussion, not a rant.

It was just a discussion that the powers that be do not approve of.

Yeah, it's pretty fucking telling that they'd get rid of that thread...

Get it through your head people.  This is not a free forum.  The debate is being manipulated for the benefit of large interests.

LIKE FUCKING LOBBYISTS, MTGOX IS INFLUENCING THE DEBATE HERE.

You have been put on notice people.

I look forward to seeing a thriving "Synaptic's 'I'm Through With Bitcoin'" forum real soon now!

[piuk]

I didn't think the post was out of line.

The mods/admins/developer/exchange owners are all mates. It's kind of ridiculous to have a decentralised currency with such a centralised core.

You want 100% uncensorable forum - post your post to Freenet.  Freenet + Frost setup is 5 minutes,  +Freetalk is another 2.
Anyway what was the post about? Did it contains something "bad" like more leaked private information etc?

[ironwolf]

Then by all means help decentralize the Bitcoin world further and start another forum. As an experiment, you can simply start a Bitcoin thread on 4chan and see how well that goes!

Thank you piuk.  It was a rather good discussion about the weaknesses of MtGox and exchanges in general, but there was a large bias against MtGox by most of the posters there, and really put MtGox on the chopping block.

It should be apparent to everyone here now that behind the scenes the major players are connected, and you are mostly a bunch of patsies in their game.

[Synaptic]

ITT:

Blind morons defending their forums in the face of truth and attacking ad hominem and baiting red herrings.

Whew. Glad that's so apparent now... you can stop saying it.

So are any of you fucking retards going to put forth a single comment about the manipulation of the debate on these forums, or just keep attacking me?

Sure, I'll engage you in serious conversation. After all I am a "fucking retard."

And then what happened?

[aral]

I didn't see the thread but removing it was a completely fucking retarded thing to do.  Mtgox is a disaster for bitcoin and needs to be killed off.  The bitcoin-rich above all should realise this is in their interest.  We need a healthy selection of secure, competing exchanges... basically the complete opposite of mtgox.

[rebuilder]

Synaptic, you're rude as hell and generally obnoxious. About par for the course for here.

Mods, start explaining about the deletion. Suppressing discussion like that looks extremely bad, especially at a time like this.

[Bit_Happy]

All caps in the thread title was a bad start Synaptic, IMO.
Also the wording could be more suitable to an honest discussion. Would you consider understanding the fact that "Do you think people should still use MtGox?", is more likely to appear to invite an unbiased discussion?

If you are open to trying out new methods, then perhaps you can learn to be an asset to the community, since your level of passion and intensity is obviously so strong.

I apologize.  I am going on 36 hours awake as is usual for me and checkin in here to see that thread deleted was just sickening.

Even more sickening is the absolute ignorance of some the users posting in this thread. Like somehow they're justified in turning a blind eye to blatant corruption here on these OFFICIAL bitcoin forums.

It's even further sickening because of what they're supposedly standing up for with bitcoin LOL.
