[POLL] The Official Troll Poll - voting ends 8/21!

[LFC_Bitcoin]

@hilariousetc - User Lambie Slayer doxed NLC, the person behind the account was/is Izabella Kaminska (UK journalist @ The Financial Times).

I can’t find the link here now though.

And yeah it was NLC that posted pages & pages of gay porn to troll us. She also had a fascination with weird, creepy WW2 pictures & Jap/Chinese disturbing images.

NLC used to troll the forum on a daily basis for a long time. I provably should have voted her as the biggest troll here. The biggest troll on any website I’ve ever been on tbh.

My first vote is for TECSHARE!

I don't think he's a troll, just aggressive and opinionated. 

Some of the funniest trolls are ones from a few years ago and who aren’t active anymore. 

I’m not sure if manyproofs would qualify as a troll, but his posts were hilarious to read.  I’m not sure if anyone could genuinely mangle the English language like he appeared to.

Fwdxlsh, mixan, kwukduck, and some other ones whose names I can’t remember also contributed some quality entertainment before they either got nuked or bored.  There was one (codishmumu) who kept saying she had a thigh gap.  Then there’s MPOE-PR from 2014 or so, who made some very intelligent but extremely biting posts.  They probably wouldn’t be considered strictly troll posts, but they were damn close.

We don’t have many trolls that are funny nowadays, just ones who rage against DT and the trust/merit systems—and thankfully that’s been on the decline recently.

cockr0ach is my vote and I think we WO people will first think about him if you ask us 🤪

Truth is cockr0ach most of the time does not make sense what he say. Whenever he gets chance he will do everything to humiliate Bitcoin but he likes to hang up in the WO thread 😜

In Sundays when everyone is busy drinking, you will find cockr0ach is still posting.

Trolls do go away. There's plenty that have come and gone here over the years.

cockr0ach is a real deal, a true exception.

I must nominate myself for trolling the bsv and bcash threads

I find that hard to believe without any evidence. A female journalist spent so much time spamming this forum? Why? What makes you think NLC didn't try frame that person (which would probably be quite easy to do by leaving a few faux breadcrumbs)? I'm not sure what evidence NLC could have left behind but I'd like to see it.

This is all I could find but the The Doxing account looks to be nuked:

Hello Lady and Gents
 I havent posted on here since 2015 when my account The Doxing, was banned from posting. Some may remember when I revealed the identity of Lambie, our friendly FT journalist, who was a plague on this thread for too long. She fought it at first but once I started subtly dripping her personal info she realized I was for real and left never too return. I never released any of her personal emails. She is gone and that is what is important. I have been reading this thread daily since 2013 and became a long term hodler in 2014. Ive even read most of JJGs posts although some speedreading and skimming is required. Im still hodling strong over half the coins i started with and happy to see Lambie doesnt plague these forums any more. The most recent dumpfest was more ridiculous imo than the Jan 2015 one so it felt like a good time to drop in and say hello after many years. Despite the rivers of blood, the carnage and the despair we have seen lately, at least NLC isnt flooding us with disgusting porn. Oh yeah and since I havent posted in so long, Ill think Ill call bottom while Im here, a little prediction never hurt anyone. I doubt Ill be back to post again for a long time but Ill be reading and enjoying everyones comments, even Roach who I believe is an undercover permabull of Jewish descent

S/he was probably more a long-con scammer than a troll.

[Flying Hellfish]

Tecshare isn't a troll. He's just a twat and a humourless one at that.

You should read his conspiracy driven HARD alt right nonsense in P&S.  I stand by my vote for him as a troll!

He is not a troll, the guy is serious.

notabatman
BADecker  

^ Although these guys might be serious as well.

Also anyone who promotes BSV or BCH must be a troll, or a dumbass.

Level 1: Being trolled

Level 2: Being the troller

Level 3: Troll by being trolled as a troller

Level 4: Making a troll poll non-ironically

My first vote is for TECSHARE!

I don't think he's a troll, just aggressive and opinionated.  

I think he's a troll on the basis that he always has to have the last word about any sort of conflict, whether its an argument or debate or whatever. He can't help but try to egg his opponent on just a little bit further than they want to go. Whether its just a gentle jab or an all-out assault -- he clearly gets off on getting people to reply to him even after they've given up, gotten bored, or admitted defeat, or whatever.

I mean you are pretty much describing everyone on this forum... Everyone is itching for a fight, regardless of the actual relevance of what they respond to. People seem to attack anyone who says something that doesn't 100% align with their immediate beliefs about a topic.

Point and case, are you gonna vote?

[kurious]

No.1 is easy.

realr0ach  A nasty, 'Holocaust 2' advocate, right out there born-again-fascist, misogynist nutjob. Plus 'it' just constantly trolls the WO with anti-Bitcoin, Pro-PMs shit. 

NLC was nasty, but she's long gone.

Most other trolls are not in roach's league, so it seems pointless to pick out a no. 2.  You can just ignore them and most do.  Newbie's keep rising to the roach's bait and wonder why it isn't banned.  If there is one troll on the entirety of BTCT that ought to be, it's this one.

So can I vote for the scumbag twice please?

[ChiBitCTy]

I don't know if this account is better classified as a troll, or just a moron.  While I totally agree with Hilarious that we're likely just feeding fuel to their fire here, I hope it can serve as a reference of accounts to not trust/take seriously etc...

Aye. This one pops up every now and then. I still find it absolutely impossible to believe. Mr. Slayer hints at the evidence but I haven't seen any other than the odd inference. Someone else reckoned it was a 15 yr old girl in Ohio or something and produced a few crumbs of evidence.

The chop entity and its alts was beyond anything I've ever witnessed so that's a given. As a runner up it's probably Stolfi who was almost as relentless but believed he had some value which makes him double dull.

I think Stolfi genuinely believed all the crap he used to spew. I don’t think that he thought he was a troll if you know what I mean.
He was one of the most vocal commenters to the SEC on every single ETF application as to why they shouldn’t be approved. The bloke is a total wanker.

He’s been aware of bitcoin since the very early days but self confesses he never bought. If he spent 10% of the effort buying that he wasted on researching everything anti bitcoin he’d probably be a multi, multi, multi millionaire.

[gentlemand]

Indeed. Which makes him a five bedroom, fur lined, twin turbocharged uber troll to the rest of us.

The most compelling villains in the movies are always convinced they're doing the right thing.

I remember Adam always offering to give him BTC which he always refused. The most bizarre of all is that he's still there on Reddit plugging away as dedicated as ever despite the relentless mushrooming of Bitcoin. The amount of time he's put in means he could've been a millionaire using that time to mine with a pencil and paper.

He must have put in thousands, or tens of thousands of hours in by now.

Sad state of affairs really, mate. Imagine spending all that time & dedication on something you’re not passionate about. It’d be like me on a train spotting forum telling them how pointless it is.

[gentlemand]

Sad state of affairs really, mate.

Maybe discovering BTC, realising he hated it and deciding to tell us over and over and over again turned his life around. Perhaps it turned him into a tiger in the bedroom and a warrior in the classroom.

All the same I'd prefer it if Theymos had allocated him his own forum with bots to agree with him.

Something tells me we'll never get trolls from that era quite that deranged in future. I think many back then truly believed they could talk Bitcoin into its demise. Even the most deluded can't convince themselves of that any more.

2017's bubble pop attracted nothing like the same amount of mindless doom 2013's did.

[eternalgloom]

I'd suggest Game-protect too, but I really don't think he's a troll so that would be a hard NO from me.

I do have another suggestion though, he isn't that active anymore, but every topic I've seen from him just screamed 'troll'.

1. BADecker religious troll in P&S. Living in fantasy world, however I have never seen him cursing on anyone because he actually believes he's saving soul and doing God's work.

This guy has my vote. He posts random shit pretty much everywhere.

This seems like a bit of fun, kind of like the opposite of the "most recognized" thread from a few months ago!

My first vote is for TECSHARE!

The second vote is more difficult as there are so many choices but I have to vote for BaDecker as he is an overachieving Troll!

I'd reverse that and say TECSHARE is my 2nd. Dude's crazy, but not as lost as BADecker. At least BADecker has religion as an excuse.
