Vod is abusing his merit source position to give 50 merit to his supporters

[xolxol]

This wont be an abuse because Vod is part of the mafia here,if it was just a normies then that would be an abuse.If you aint belong to them you're out.

Another example of negative thinking man. Community don't allow the word "mafia" and there is nothing here on bitcointalk which seems like this. Its really interesting to hear something like that because i believe all scammers way of thinking is likely similar and on the other side all default trusted members have got the same point of view against scammers. That"s why it could look like a group or mafia for you dude.

Why do we should start such a fighting - that has negative net-effects in general ?
Let's check what's going on with merit circulations there: Wall Observer, where you can receive merits by uploading images on whatever funny stuffs. No one complaints about that, so far.
Personally, the point is when we need to start a fighting, we actually can find reasons for it; whilst when we need reasons to forgive, we actually can find them.

Vod is giving multiple people 50 merit for very low effort posts (they are on topic and not necessarily wrong) in a thread discussing something that reflects on him poorly. He is giving away merit to people supporting him.

I am referring to this thread. Although he is also giving 50 merit to others who have recently supported him.

His status as a merit source should be revoked and reversing the merit transactions should be considered.

And all the other merit he has given at really appropriate post .... if he gives from time to time 50 merit to not let them expire and that being to an in he's opinion good member that will send them away with good care isn't bad as well....
If it would be to shady, newbie accounts, then the story is different....

But for example if VOD goes on a holiday for two weeks not able to be online, then it wouldn't be bad to send them to a good poster, judgemental member to spend them as he sees fit .....

Better to let merit be used for good then let them be expired, just to sell merit, to support shady accounts that are the NO-go's for merit sending....

Don't make noise where no noise is needed. He isn't made a source cause he has bad judgement!

Theymos has responded to my request to be removed as a merit source.  No more working for free. 

I gave you 10 merits for having licked the merit sauce (sic), and for not dropping a boob whilst doing it.

Presumably, Vod is purposefully giving merit inappropriately in an effort to get fired as a merit source

No shit sherlock.

QS, would you be willing to lock this topic? There are already plenty of open topics about Vod and his behaviour. Send Theymos a PM and tell him why you feel like Vod should be removed as a merit source. He's the only one who can remove him as a source so having another endless discussion isn't contributing to the Meta section in any way.

you are an example of a stupid cunt,ass licking faggot.Its clearly an abuse ,and you are only denying it, if the person abusing is powerful you are going to lick,if its just a normal guy you are going to say its an abuse..LOL

[wumBowo]

before Vod removed from merit source since he wanted too, i wanna know how it's feel having a shower which full of merits given by him  

[bitmover]

This forum obviously means a lot to him, and I say that based on posts he's made in the past. 

I agree. I was really impressed when I saw his bpip website, wihich he clearly spends a lot of time bulding and making it work. It really looks like he cares about the forum, even someone who don't know him can notice that.

About 50 merit... In a few months or years those 50 merits won't make any difference.

I first came across vod in the flat earth topic, the debates between notbatman and vod were great, hes one to always call people out on bullshit.

It looks like a "mafia" to me. Am I a scammer? Here, have some ball washing polish you seem to be running out.

Lol.  Haven't read that one in years, but there are certain parts of it that stick out in my mind that do seem to indicate you might have a point.  I would very much like to not see this forum progress to the level of brutality and anarchy that I remember from that story.

It really looks like he cares about the forum, even someone who don't know him can notice that.

He does.  He's obviously really pissed off right now, though as I said in another post his actions are a proxy for what he's not articulating in posts.  People who are very cerebral and tend to think very logically generally don't let out their frustrations in words, e.g., an outburst or rant.  They tend to act out their inner turmoil--and again, this is just from personal observations throughout my life. 

I gave you 10 merits for having licked the merit sauce (sic), and for not dropping a boob whilst doing it.

Jet Cash!  Haven't seen you around in a while, and I thought you might have disappeared.  Glad to see you're still around.

You forgot " Morse code " and "then running out of s-merit" its long list tho. You might want to add a disclaimer about green dildo, pic related to having dinner, swimsuit model's pics are already copyright there

Drama= once in a week overall WO thread is full of fun.

[darklus123]

I still support him anyways if that is his way getting removed from being a source then be it.

This only means that Vod isn't interested being at the top (that is what a real man does).

Edit: Still a much worthy member in this forum tho than you actually do

HAHAHAHAHAHAH. BTW you might want to wipe that brown from your nose.

I will say this much as I wound up looking into Techshares feedback history one weekend as I fell down the bitcointalk rabbit hole. He's been a longtime member on the forum once on staff I believe, and conducts quite a bit of Marketplace business. You don't have to agree with him to note there have been a lot of contributions.

I'd have to read more but iirc, it could be argued he made a mistake in going a bit far to catch a scammer.


I bring this up because I don't really understand why people want to make it personal here. You can easily interact and disagree with people, without it, or just ignore and move on.

[SM23031997]

It bums me out to keep seeing these topics. At first they were just annoying, but its getting pretty sad to see. I like Vod, Quickseller, and OgNasty, as well as the handful of others chiming in. Does anyone actually truly care that someone is sending a debatable amount of merits, or have you decided to make lifelong vendettas over stupid stuff that probably barely effects anyone?

If you haven't set fire to each other's houses or screwed each other's dog, is it really worth continuing bickering? It just makes the forum feel more gloomy and less unified. You all have better things to do than fight with each other online, so why keep wasting your own time? You don't need to get along, but knowing when to just ignore someone rather than expending 100 hours responding to a fired shot is a valuable skill. If you keep at it, I'm going to have to start hanging out with the spam bots to avoid pointless forum drama.  

Same here it burns me out too.
Everyone(Involved parties) ignored this post like it was never posted. There are many productive things that can be done, we are here for one purpose bitcoin is bae.
Supporting your supporter is not a bad thing. Wasting everything on them is also not good. Think, Re-think and think again. Do you want to be fair with one or all?

I'm not supporting anyone here I'm neutral.

Done wiping , now what's the difference?

I was actually referring to OP by that statement. Vod obviously did sent the 50 merit willingly and if the reason behind that is him being removed as a sourced then there is nothing wrong about that.  It is pretty obvious that OP is trying to add up on Vod's issue and this is pretty nonsense.
