Sorry, Daffy is right. It was a different scumbag on HT that wasn't abusing mod power, but was instead another HT member ddosing and hacking other websites under the name @root (real username The God). Could have fooled me, it seems @rootdude had a "God complex" when he used to be a mod. He is not connected at all the screenshot clearly shows @Root not @Rootdude I checked the Nick @Root was changed to @The God.
You should ask @animoesto what it is like to be a MOD on HT. It's not a fun job.

You're not trying to justify rudedude's brief moderator career, are you? How about the fallout where he got all pissy and started unbanning everyone, including scammers?

No I'm not but I know he really did not like being a mod. And what scammers did he unban? I really did not follow the whole afair. I think he unbanned people because he wanted out from being a mod.

I think @rootdude is just blowing his trumpet about Ddos a site with any magnitude.I was an IT security analyst it takes me busy to take a large site down and keep it down unless Gaw has control of its customers computers
coinmaster, @root is someone completely different from @rootdude. not the same person.

I think many of us have done "unfun" jobs, but that doesn't make it right to throw those burgers at your customers, does it ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Back to the point made by WaffleMaster, "God complex" is about right. Now hopefully it sheds a new light for HT posters/readers on whatever the self-appointed crypto financial expert rootdude has said or will say about GAW's business.

I belieeve we had a few pages saying something like this would happen. More importantly - This gives a view of what Josh wants. What type of person would hire someone like this? Or even ask them to be a MOD??? I think that's more telling than anything.

Like I said he really did not want to be a mod and the only way he though of getting rig of the mod badge was to act like that. No the bigger question would be why did nobody re-ban those people that he unbanned. God complex maybe some people react very differently to having power. Some people start abusing it and other people are very careful in using that power. Will it shed a new light for the HT posters/readers? I doubt it.

I think what I'm looking forward to most in this whole fiasco is the validation when we hear from an official that Joe Mordica is just an alias the CTO uses and not his real name. For most of this, I was a little behind the curve, thinking that GAW was just making mistakes. It took some real evidence for me to believe there was actual fraud. For "Joe Mordica", it's the reverse. No one else believes it even though it's as clear as day to me.

You're right... the reputation of HT users in general is pretty bad already. The forum activity has dropped off significantly lately.. Especially after the $20 floor promise and consequent failure to follow through. It's insulting that Josh is still saying that's not what he meant. This goes back to my earlier point, he would prefer to be around people that follow his lead and will believe what he says. Hence - Rootdude.

I think that's more telling than anything. if you are vested in GAW it's been a rough go of it as of late. the company and the investors have become the pinatas of the crypto world, with everyone taking a swing. i don't condone rootdude's actions, but i will give him a pass. seeing your equity drop 80% in the matter of days can make even the best of us crack/snap. i am vested in GAW--and time will tell if i am right or wrong. in the meantime i sit back and enjoy my cafe while reading the threads. a lot of you are pretty damn funny and have a good sense of humor. my only suggestion would be to keep the wives and children out of the discussions.

RE: Joe - extremely bizarre situation if you ask me. Anybody have the background to calculate the odds of two people both having the first name Joseph, last name Moridca, live/be from Hattiesburg, the Hattiesburg in Mississippi, have attended U of So Miss, and be w/i the age-ballpark of one another? I assume that the odds of there being two Joes that share these same variables are small (there's a dead Joe Mordica w/ these same variables, for those not aware), but it could very well be the case that there are two Joes.

Why doesn't gaw accept XPY on its own sites like gawminers? You think the first merchant integration would have been their own companies, maybe because they premined 97% of the coin and have no use for anymore. Just to create Hype cycles like CC purchases so they can dump them on the upswings? Who knows stay tuned ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FlwitOQb.jpg&t=665&c=s97TPH1WGUTuqw)

K so we have... - A "business" that has a handful of cult like followers, most turning out to be actively involved in the church (ironic) and lots of faith in something that is not really proving anyones assumptions wrong
- a handful of ripped off logos, that might be a signal for an investor, but from the inside, it has been noted as a mistake, 2 times in a row, in a brand that is supposed to already have 00's of millions invested, which keeps being brushed off as nothing.
- A forum guiding the community that is super heavily moderated by moderators questioning other moderators, correct me if i m wrong
- a promise for major merchant integration, which has yet to exist, and as far as I have seen isn't something that fell threw, it was a direct lie
- ecommerce function for online purchases that requires extensive tech knowledge to use, or is non existent
- a lie about the price floor that some deem a shortcoming, which to me looks like a direct lie to generate investments... regardless, something that was promosied that is currently 1/4 or less of it's promise and is constantly downplayed as a mistake
- Credit card integration for purchasing XPY that charges 10%, with moderators of HT defending... DEFENDING 10% on a credit card purchase becasue credit fees are "high"... Which is INSANE. No credit issuer has ever charged 10% on transactions, and to believe or try to justify this is nuts,especially in the world of cryptocurrency
- XPY asspirates taking down popular news outlets for literally doing their job and reporting about this stuff
- All this defended with statements as "this is the next big thing, we have faith, Josh has a history of success
AND This is referrred to as the peoples coin? Is everyone smoking crack? This is the funniest shit i have ever seen. Actually, better than a soap opera, that is so blatantly obvious that the holders don't matter, as long as the top is making $$, why/how am i wrong here? With a brand Paycoin/Paybase w.e in such deep water, with such negativity from the community that will inevitably be their niche market, why/how do people believe this is worth anything at all? This is not worth a penny in my books, but I am open to a discussion about how someone finds faith/value being involved in this situation... I don't get this at all. People are nuts. In the best event that everything above is 100% a misunderstnading, the negativity will never let this take off, ever. Brands with this much hate I do not believe have a proven track record of success, or generating investments... Well other then in the crypto community.. But like.. wow
