Mike PompeoLong live our feline friend, shame she felt that she had to leave. So many hours & so much effort put into this forum now consigned to the history books.
Meow old friend, Meow.
Mr Secretary of State of the United States, I think this will amuse you. It is approximately reconstructed from memory, since Lauda made me wipe all of our e-mails before she left:
Nobody: [Extended rant about Trump’s abysmal lack of character, and how he breaks his most important promises.]Catbat Witch: I like Trump. He’s funny.
Nobody: I like Trump’s tweets, too. The problem is that he doesn’t mean what he says.
Catbat Witch: No, I like Trump.
Nobody: Hiss.Catbat Witch: Meow.This is especially significant because the two of us always bonded over our mutual anti-Americanism
(mine admittedly much more extreme than hers). It is impressive that any American president could win her approval! As such,
Trump did deliver on his promise to Make America Great. (I will omit the “Again”, which begs the question of past greatness.)Meow to you, too, Mr Secretary Pompeo.
Lauda will never return here.
Correct.
Yeah but there is plenty of time for dying...later
It is a good aphorism.
“Remember who you are, what you are and who you represent”
You most certainly did represent the true value of the community! Farewell!
Happy New Year Lauda.
Once again on the new year, it feels hard to believe that we will begin 2021 without Lauda
LONG LIVE (the spirit of) LAUDA!
Thank you all.
Lauda will never return;
You seem so sure about that; I am not.
A person like lauda probably already has alts. Maybe they mentioned it elsewhere. I too doubt he will be gone forever, or maybe will return at some point perhaps under a new account that he may or may not announce and may just be discovered by someone. I think for most who make money from this forum it is too lucrative just to abandon without good reasons, unless you already maybe made megabucks and just decide to sail off into the sunset, but either way why still walk away from that when you can earn a decent amount from here without too much effort and it's something you can do anywhere in the world either in your mom's basement or on a beach in Bali as long as you've got an internet connection.
I am morally certain of this, based on the substance and substantial
vehemence of our discussion when she left. And Lauda keeps her word; if she says she’s gone, she’s gone. Furthermore, what is this conceit that an Internet forum is so important that people must be irresistibly drawn back to it? Some people have real lives. If you cannot imagine anybody ever leaving the forum permanently, it says more about you than about others.
But if you want to go down some deeper rabbit holes, here is a bombshell insider leak for you:
Lauda was an alt of Quickseller. The epic little quarrel-and-make-up routine was simply disinformation, so that you would never guess. The Lauda identity was deactivated because
Qs is Trump’s secret anon forum account; and as the election approached, he had to wind up identities that were taking too much time to maintain.
PROOF: The U.S. Secretary of State just posted to Lauda’s goodbye thread under his real name, as verified by a blue checkmark!
And “Quickseller” begins with the letter
Q.
Q.E.D. What more proof do you need? Lauda, a.k.a. Quickseller, a.k.a. Donald J. Trump is still here, and he always will be.
If Phinneaus Gage's account can come back from the dead (though obviously not literally himself) then I'd never say never to Lauda reappearing if he hasn't already.
What an awkward comparison. Well, I will follow it one step further.
When you called out that individual for having tried to sell account(s), I thought that it was an ugly but necessary public warning that should be done without regard to emotions. Now, instead of
repeatedly posting
authoritative-sounding misinformation and conspiracy theories about someone whom you obviously didn’t know
at all, why don’t you commend Lauda for burning her
extremely valuable account instead of selling it? After all, to condemn wrong without recognizing right is just pure negativity.
In monetary terms, Lauda’s account was orders of magnitude more valuable than the GG account. There are people here who would have trusted Lauda’s word of honour with more BTC than I have ever seen in one place. It is exactly why she was so adamant that her identity must be killed with finality—and why, as a lasting service to her, I am on guard against any faulty thinking that may lead to rumours that Lauda is back as so-and-so. It would be the perfect setup for a scam! —No, Lauda is gone, and she will
not be back here.
Emphasis is in the original:I do not want any chance of an impersonation scam in a name that many people trust.
Over the years people have even trusted "Lauda" with different sums of Bitcoin. I have one of the highest name-recognition accounts on the forum. This places on me a responsibility. It is not to feed my strong ego that I say, it is a valuable account with a high reputation - a trust that people place in my unseen body, through the name of "Lauda". If I cease to be "Lauda" then according to my well-known principles, I must affirmatively prevent anybody else from using this name and forum account ever again.
Please, hilarious, let’s not start the rumour-mill. Do you really want to see Lauda sightings like Elvis Satoshi from now until the next century?
Sure. The speculation will be fun if/when anyone suspects it.
Besides being annoyingly stupid, the speculation could open the way for scams. Which is exactly what Lauda has hereby so striven to prevent, in case OP wasn’t sufficiently clear.
