SA trolls are back

[FlipPro]

The SA trolls are back at it again. You motherfuckers aren't going to come here to start shit anymore. People like me WILL start calling you pieces of shit out.

I'm gonna start my Troll hunting list, as the price goes up, except the animosity to increase guys. We have to handle these assholes RIGHT the first time...

What does SA mean ?

And also : why is anything I've said so far giving
you such a hard-on, I wonder ?

Cause you're obviously fucking trolling.

The last SA post I could find having anything to do with Bitcoin was from 12/12/2011.  I looked around yesterday.  I really miss the bastards, and they did the Bitcoin community a great service by exposing various things that we were to closed-minded to look at IMHO.

I used to read the Bitcoin threads when they were open.  Sometimes there were some real gems, but near the end it got to where there were only on per several pages.

Also, the SA forum was an amazingly good study in groupthink.  They would basically ban anyone who said anything potentially positive about Bitcoin.

I really miss FAtlas who was head and shoulders more funny than any of the other goons.  Near the end of his interest on the SA threads he was lamenting the fact that he was to lazy or stupid to figure out Bitcoinica so he could short Bitcoin to the end.  Lucky for him that his deficiencies kept him safe.

They are all just really sick people, who are consumed within their own negative thoughts. Did you know that they have had multiple shooting deaths in that community?

I've said it in the past, and I'll say it here again: They encourage this kind of behavior .

Do they also encourage the systematic use of the bold tag ?

Sorry, couldn't help it

I used to love SA, back in like 2000-2001.  Apparently the state of things there has degenerated, and that seems kinda scary.

Hey, cool whoever split and re-named this thread.  I didn't know it could be done.

I was just looking again at SA, and it looks like they closed down the last Bitcoin thread which is why it ceased on 12/12.  Maybe this thread will create some more interest and they'll come back.

If BTC values continue to go up I would be surprise if any of them are going to come back with egg all over their faces.  Hopefully Bitcoin will live up to it's potential one day some of the goons will be kicking themselves over not doing a little bit of independent thought and and missing the boat.

As far as they being whacked out homicidal freaks, I really did not get that impression.  Similar to this board, a percentage of them seemed pretty sharp and/or decent, and the remainder seemed to be your run-of-the-mill floatsam and jetsam of humanity without much to say.

They are generally disillusioned and nothing is good enough for them and they get their kicks from making fun of ANYTHING -- nothing is sacred, and man I gotta admit that attitude was punk as fuck and fun as hell when I was in my late teens - early 20's.

But I'm SO fucking glad BTC did not come around back then, because I probably would have been on the goon side and missed it all.

Now that I think of it, I bet I would have been on the goon side also at that age.

In fact, even at my age were I to lack one of two of my properties, I likely would ignore or even be hostile to Bitcoin.

  1) ability to grasp the technical concepts underlying the Bitcoin system.

  2) disdain for the features of our modern monetary systems and what they do to a majority of people.

So Bitcoin came at a very opportune time for me (or at least that will end up being the case if Bitcoin attains it's potential.)

For better or worse, I really never lost the enjoyment I get out of making fun of ANYTHING, and very very little is sacred to me.  Certainly Bitcoin is not.

I'm gonna start my Troll hunting list, as the price goes up, except the animosity to increase guys. We have to handle these assholes RIGHT the first time...

You do realize reacting like this is EXACTLY what they want and are trolling for in the first place?

I had you pegged as a goon for some reason.  Maybe just 'cuz someone labeled you as such at some point.  But that never mattered much to me.

You guys quit picking on my friend, Randy.

BadBear forgot to post an image with his post:

[FlipPro]

This was taken from another thread in speculation. I didn't make this into a new thread lol. It was moved...

[ineededausername]

Long long ago (September), I was inspired to make this picture because of all the shit about Bruce Wagner and SA.
Here we go again.

[repentance]

I used to love SA, back in like 2000-2001.  Apparently the state of things there has degenerated, and that seems kinda scary.

SA is a lot more moderated now than it was in 2000-2001, when it was pretty much anything goes a lot like 4chan.

Any community of 150,000 plus people - whether real or online - is going to have its fair share of unstable people.  There'll no doubt come a day when a Bitcoin user commits some heinous crime and it would be ridiculous to blame Bitcoin or this forum for their actions when it happens.  Hell, a forum member already got put in a life-threatening situation by someone accepting Bitcoins as a payment method for fake insulin but the scammer is just a scammer using all the methods at his disposal to scam people - Bitcoins didn't make him that.

FlipPro you seriously need some help. I'm not "trolling" or trying to get a rise out of you, you are in a manic state and you need to talk to a professional.

Get well, buddy.

I'm not reopening the thread unless Bruce Wagner comes back

I think that had rather less to do with laziness and rather more to do with the fact that shorting Bitcoins would require trusting Bitcoinica.

That's an official prescription from Doctor Buttcoin ...
