This guy or girl or whatever gets on my nerves.
It loses every debate I have with it and ends with it's mind publicly crushed to a level of just blurting out nonsense like
"most" pre merit legends are spammers
or
Total disrespect for the entire board that are not part of his merit cycling mediocre to dull witted group of pals (few exceptions) with comments like
" it is idiotic and incorrect to assume that some of the 99.87% of this board are capable of making posts as good if not better than some of the 0.13%"
(0.13% = top 200 merit cyclers that pass merit between themselves at such a rate that if you remove just their own merits they give each other their scores drop around 80% - yes 80% ..99.87% = every other of the approx 150k active users)
So "he" is saying there that none of 99.87% of the board are capable of making posts as good or better than even some from a tiny tiny tiny subset of the board that cycle merit around amongst themselves.
This is undeniable FACT. That is what he thinks can you imagine such a fool being part of a trust system or merit source??
Some merit sources are begging for more merit to give out whilst stating in public they have the main discussion boards on ignore??
Now though suchmoon and the other dummies in his group of mates.. have given up on simply avoiding responding to any kind of questions regarding their collusion, merit cycling and trust system abuse... or actually debating anything because most are quite obviously incapable of withstanding any kind of scrutiny which is apparent after a couple of probing posts.
They now try to delete posts they simply have no answer to that are completely fact based..... but do not fit in with their agenda
The latest example is this
...
A reply of yours, quoted below, was deleted by the starter of a self-moderated topic. There are no rules of self-moderation, so this deletion cannot be appealed. Do not continue posting in this topic if the topic-starter has requested that you leave.
You can create a new topic if you are unsatisfied with this one. If the topic-starter is scamming, post about it in Scam Accusations.
should we care more about "spam" comments - Yea probably, but as long as it's not fud frankly we don't care, you could post "this is a weird project" or "who cares about privacy" and we probably wouldn't delete those either
Right. As long as it's not negative, you'll let trash through. I see. Too much of a bother, eh?
Inundating your team account with merit is not something that makes sense. That's artificially increasing the reputation of the posts, whether you care or not.
When a new system is introduced, shouldn't you generally check to see how it works and what effects it has upon other systems? If you had done so, you would have only sent 1 merit.
**assuming you were ignorant
Well, the more that you understand merit is subjective and is actually misleading in many cases then I am not sure of the reputation element here. I think more merit only = more reputation (in a positive way) for those that do no understand the FACT that with no criteria and the other myriad of problems with the current merit system there is no value or very low value or even negative value to these scores currently. This meriting their own alts (that case I highlighted with 1 guy giving 50 merits to 3 other accounts for more or less the same statements of low quality all sharing and eth address) just reduces the value further.
Although I am glad you agree that meriting junk is damaging and lends to its reputation (if only to those that do not understand how the merit system works).
I don't think people should be allowed to merit their own alts but then I don't think people should have alts in general. I guess for dev teams and a few other situations sharing accounts then this is understandable.
That is completely factual and reasonable post (to which he has no rebuttal) and this scum bag suchmoon deletes it because it does not fit into his agenda to prove he is a good poster because he has some self awarded merits from his friends. Just pull up his top 20 most merited users and the top 20 contributors to this idiots merit score. These are the same gang that club together on most threads in meta to push their agenda.
He tries to hide this and now just deletes factual posts as he knows 1. his mind is feeble and can not debate anything without collapsing and revealing in public he should just sit down and shut up 2. he is trying to push an agenda based on a broken system that he and a few others have managed to game so far.
I will not be like suchmoon and delete factual and reasonable replies.
Anything else booooooooom deleted from here now. So bring evidence and bring corroborating events with your opinions or boom I just delete these empty and faux rebuttals and save people the time of suffering through them..
Once I debunk anything you say in opposition to my OP - boom in to the trash can. I will have a thread of fact based opinions and replies and nothing other than that.
The facts are this
examine this groups merit cycling amongst themselves, there are around 10 main culprits who are the main ones attempting to prevent facts and truth being posted here.
You will find that their top 20 senders/receivers are riddled with these same culprits. Do the research yourself.
examine the threads I have in meta over this merit cycling and see how these exact group all turn up colluding and trying to mask the truth
examine those threads and see how each time they lose the debate because the stats demonstrate their cycling
examine how they descend into broken logic and irrational statements
examine then how they need to boycott my posts because they are scared of debating with me because I simply seek the truth
examine "my most important thread of the year" in meta - read it all and understand how the merit and trust systems are open to blatant abuse and also can be used to crush free speech
examine now how they just delete posts that are fact based and totally relevant to discussions they generate but do not fit in with their agenda
It is up to you then to draw your conclusions.
I was willing to let it drop but now they are trying to censor reasonable posts based on facts it is going too far.
You can not delete posts that are facts based and reasonable instead of answering them. Not if you want to then say I am to be a controller or the merit system and trust system.
If he stops deleting my posts that are reasonable and fact based I will delete this thread if not it will stay and grow with each time it happens.
Next comes a thread on meta about the self moderation of threads by those that are part of the systems of control.
Should people in those systems we have to trust in apparently be allowed to delete fact based posts or not? That is something to consider.
I mean surely the truth and facts that are directly relevant to a discussion they start should never be allowed to be deleted? that is not something you would expect members given positions of trust to do?
