Lauda back as Ratimov, (alleged)

[Wiwo]

Lauda left the forum before I came but Ratimov is still around, I don't see any connection between the two accounts.
I don't care if Lauda is still around or not so long as am not guilty and do not promote scam projects why should I worry about who I don't even know, I hard Lauda was notorious is bashing scammers.

@Ratimov has a liking for trading crypto derivatives and posting about it, Something I never saw Lauda do from the time I join this forum. OP, whatever your goal is. It backfired. Go back to the drawing board. Perhaps you feel bitter about some of your alts getting caught up and tagged, though you keep distancing yourself from it, which makes me think you are guilty conscious.

[Obito]

In the Internet, we don't exactly know if anyone tells the truth, in the off chance that you're right then that would be stupid of Lauda to go back to this forum after a tearful (sort of) post about leaving the forum and at the same time Lauda would be betraying the words s/he has said. And why would Lauda try to get in and start all over again when he have a perfectly good forum clout and make another name for himself.

It appears that Ratimov is active in the Russian local sub. This leads me to believe he likely speaks Russian fluently, and more often than not, means he is Russian. Lauda was active in the Croatian forum.

Indeed, I am a user from Russia.

I am glad that mystery has been solved.

No.  Ratimov might be a bit prickly under certain circumstances

That's right, I always answer people in the manner in which they try to communicate with me. If a person crosses the line, then in response he receives exactly the same treatment. 

That is a good way of approaching interactions with people. You should treat others as you want to be treated, and you should expect to be treated as you treat others.

I think Lauda is hanging around, but I don't think she is Ratimov. Really hard to believe she left the forum for good without any real good reason IMO.

The way I read lauda's parting message is that he was dox'ed, or at least partially dox'ed. Given that Lauda left in the middle of the covid-19 pandemic, it is also possible lauda caught covid, had a serious case, and did not want something to happen to his account as happened to Bruno's account.

Prior to leaving the forum, Lauda had been very secretive about his personal information. It is not clear if this was out of necessity, or due to a personal preference. If someone had in fact uncovered some personal information that he wanted to remain private, I would understand why he would retire the Lauda identity.

With that being said, it is unusual for someone to outright leave the forum. IDK if lauda has a new account here, or not. Lauda was very technically inclined, and there are a handful of new users in the Dev and Tech sub with a solid understanding of various technical concepts.

Another reason to believe they killed 1 account to start another. Whether dox'd or if it was the escrow debacle, I found it convenient for Lauda to disappear.

I think it depends on why Lauda was so secretive about his personal information.

If there was something (he believed) that would put him in danger if his personal information was publically released, Lauda may have decided to leave the forum rather than risk having his personal information leaked. OTOH, Lauda may have decided to burn his Lauda personality to make it more difficult to connect his IRL identity to his online personalities, and to start fresh with a new account.

I don't know why that is hard to believe (when people connected him with some old plagiarism), many people left the forum including marlboroza that is not active for months.
nutlidah probably left the forum after moderator temp banned him for one week, and many other before him like Vod for example.

I think after a long time over several years spent on the forum, it’s not that easy to just close your browser and turn to something else. as a hobby or as a regular job. if nothing else, at least you get back out of habit to see what's new here.
I also see no reason why anyone would leave a very recognizable account and start all over again. it seems pretty schizophrenic to me.

btw. As you already mentioned marlboroza, do you know is it everything was ok with him, he left quietly.

This is accusations, it's obvious that @ Ratimov and @ launda are two different people, even looking from both work conversations, it's very clear, but I don't really know the benefit of some people attacking people we know very well that can't be the same, launda voluntarily write note of retirement to rest for his dear life, how is it possible that he will use another account to come back to the forum, Ratimov is different person with different characteristics from launda, it's very simple and quite understandable.

You call it an accusation?
I didn't accuse Ratimov anyways, I only tried to establish an already proven point, don't you get it?
I really like Ratimov alright? He's a cool guy though I haven't dealt with him directly and even on the forum apart from making suggestions for me on my post and meriting quality threads made by me.
 I was just suggesting that they both posses the same xtics and maybe it could be that Ratimov is lauda's alt.
Ratimov shouldn't make this issues very implicating because I heard him said he wanted to send funds to lauda's address so that more suspicions can be made,maybe..!

So what exactly is the point of this thread?
I don't say any point you are trying to make at all. I mean, you haven't even shown us any conclusive evidence showing that the two profiles might be controlled by the same person.

Trying to stir up some drama but in a canning way?

You know that saying "anything is possible when you don't know what you are talking about"? It is perfectly applicable in this situation as you have to be completely clueless about either of those members to think that one is the alt of another. If you spent ~15 minutes comparing  their posting style (while being able to actually comprehend what's being written), you wouldn't even think about them Ratimov being Lauda's alt, let alone creating this absurd thread.

I don't say any point you are trying to make at all. I mean, you haven't even shown us any conclusive evidence showing that the two profiles might be controlled by the same person.

No point really, just throwing shit at the wall, and seeing what sticks.

[suchmoon]

OP's trollfuckery aside, I don't know why so many users think that Lauda must be using some other account here. He seemed to be wealthy enough and fed up with Bitcointalk's "politics" so that it wouldn't be at all surprising that he found something better to do. Lots of users left over the years. More power to them.

One thing that doesn't quite make sense is the dramatic exit - if you wanna leave just leave - but perhaps Lauda felt that he had a certain reputation to uphold up to and including his last post.

Hmm, you don't wanna get involved with these right?
I made these thread and I didn't get anyone pissed off, even Ratimov himself didn't even take it personal then you shouldn't.
I'm not stirring up any drama bud.
I made these thread 3 days ago and have not really concluded some points about these case yet. I'm making investigations on getting more valid proofs then I'll know what to say . You shouldn't be disturbed about the thread because mods are not gonna ban him even if they discovered he is lauda

[LTU_btc]

So, you found potential alt account of Lauda. I already lost count how many alt accounts of Lauda in all these years were found here.
I'm not really sure what's the point of this topic and I don't see any connection between Lauda and Ratimov. Their style of posts, grammar is completely different. And as said, Lauda is from Croatia, Ratimov is Russian.
I wouldn't be surprised if Lauda have alt account here. And I think it's possible to find account which would be more close call than Ratimov.

I'm almost certain Lauda is a "he", because Theymos referred to Lauda as such one time, though that's making the assumption that Theymos knew enough about Lauda to know that particular fact.  But since Lauda was so private, even about gender, I usually tiptoed around it when referring to him/her.  Do you happen to have the scoop on that?

As you said, Lauda was so private, so, theymos words probably isn't enough proof to say that Lauda is a "he".

use your system and check what is accusations in Google, check the body composition of your text all about, if their is different between an accusation and what you are deriving at.

I only tried to establish an already proven point, don't you get it?

that prove is not legit, because that kind of prove is use to tarnish someone's reputation.

I really like Ratimov alright? He's a cool guy though I haven't dealt with him directly and even on the forum apart from making suggestions for me on my post and meriting quality threads made by me.

So you know all this things, you are still busy pushing him to the wall, when making a reference point, just try to make a cogent points, not like all this your accusations without direction.

I was just suggesting that they both posses the same xtics and maybe it could be that Ratimov is lauda's alt.

that's under assumptions, it is not authentic and concrete, so what will make you to feel so? We are here when lauda resigned from the community, so it's impossible for Ratimov to be lauda.

[dkbit98]

That just confirms that old theory that you are one of his alts.

I didn't hear this theory myself, but yeah if you are speaking multiple languages you immediately become a prime suspect in this investigation.

The way I read lauda's parting message is that he was dox'ed, or at least partially dox'ed.

He was not dox'ed at all, but he almost got banned from forum and accused for plagiarism that ruined his dear reputation.
His option was to accept that (probably impossible for Lauda) or to quit and retire on his own terms and become immortal figure.

btw. As you already mentioned marlboroza, do you know is it everything was ok with him, he left quietly.

I don't have any information about him, but I suspect that years of daily smoking famous brand of cigarettes in this forum finally finished him off, in a virtual way.

Hm I think that I actually confused Lauda and marlboroza, when it comes to theories who's alt you are. Then again, at one occasion marlboroza told me that he was accused of being Lauda's alt too, so there's that.

I am sure that he is fine. I remember him complaining in local board that he is kinda loosing interest and that he doesn't know what to write anymore, like coming to forum and then spending like half an hour trying to find a post worth a reply, and then in the end just logging off, or something along those lines. After all, nothing wrong in taking a forum break from time to time.

[Trojane]

Well as written above, these was just an alleged suspicion but it looks like I have gotten the right one thi time around.
@Ratimov has two alts(one which isn't certain yet)
I'm making proper investigations and I'm gathering valid proofs cus I wouldn't wanna explain much on it when I creat the topic, I'll only drop the proofs and everything making it self explanatory.
So on that note, I'm gonna lock this post for now
Oops.! Came late
Merry Xmas guys
