Deleted posts in the Hardware BFL Thread, Double Standards, and Hypocrisy

[Leeroy Jenkins]

Yep, I call bullshit to the naysayers, mods and non-mods. Think very carefully before you assume something is just "garbage". The topic is BFL and its lies, manipulations, etc. The upper management (many times the subject of mockery) played a not-less-than-99% role in what still struggles to survive off the backs of those fooled by empty promises. (Blaming those fooled is no different from blaming the victim of a crime, so be mindful of that as well.)

The discussion needs to be had, and preventing it helps no one but BFL. Knock it off with the holier than thou bullshit and let people discuss freely.

Bick, who are you to tell us we're all just the average person anyway? Get real.

Reality and 800+ pages prove you're flatout wrong. The thread should've been moved, not locked.

800+ pages containing a low percentage of useful post and a tonne of useless posts. Quite a few different topics being argued (since BFL fucked people over in quite a few different ways). That thread is a mess. I would have personally kept it open until BFL has to close up shop, but it was bound to be locked sooner or later.

The thread has definitively served a purpose though. And it still is there for reference.


Now where's the thread on Josh vs. Bruno again?

Sorry, but unless you can go through the thread, post by post, and explain in each case, according to explicit criteria, that such and such post is "useless" to give us a real percentage rather than uselessly gesturing that that is the case, you really are talking a lot of nonsense.

I'm pretty sure the mods are having loads of fun deleting posts in the new thread. Gotta make those bitcoins BFL paid regularly count for something, huh?

Very useless comment, but thanks for sharing! It would be a shame if someone reported useless banter sentence by sentence to protect the delicate sensibilities of those who have no reading comprehension. Censorship never had such powerful champions until now...

My statement is my opinion. I have read every post in that thread as it unfolded. You're asking me to back up my opinion. That would be fair enough if you had provided the same for your opinion that the vast majority (please correct me if I'm paraphrasing you wrong here) of posts in that thread are meaningful.

I'll humor you anyway, since it's so easy. Starting from the most recent post, working my way back up the page:

13 out of 17 posts...  Say roughly 75% is crap. There you go.

Unfounded allegation. Do you see the irony?

Excuse me for trying to end my post on a lighter note. I don't like being sour. You can have all the sour grapes for yourself if you like them.

[Leeroy Jenkins]

Lol, cherrypicking doesn't substantiate your claim, pal. You should also realize that you aren't in good company since my claims are backed up by this thread. Talk about losing before the battle even started. LMAO!

You could have used all this energy to investigate BFL. You know that there is a lot to do. Keep up the good work and keep wasting your time fighting the people who you don't like.

How is taking the most recent posts cherry picking? For what it is worth I found the thread entertaining and I've certainly contributed to those triple digits daily views. But I also found it mostly off-topic and fairly useless in stopping / warning newbies about BFL's evil ways.

Now tell me again how giving my opinion equals losing a battle and how you've substantiated your claim "Hey, this thread backs me up!". At least you find my posts entertaining, I guess. So enjoy it!

All this energy was 5 minutes. I'm sorry that I don't know (yet?) of a way to put another nail into BFL's coffin in about 5 minutes. If I did, I'd hammer it in slowly just to make it more painful to them. They're scum and they seem so deluded that they don't even seem to realise it. Which leads me to believe they'll be back with a new scam soon.

Agreed. Too much noise little signal especially in the last year.

You say so? But wait. You will be busy searching for useless posts, so you will miss the scam. Eh... you seem to have other priorities.

This thread is about BFL deleting posts. As these postsare being send by theymos, I thought that might end this thread. So I thought to post here.

However, I was wrong. This thread is discussing more about BFL than about forum-BFL issue. This thread should be in Service Discussion IMHO.

No, Muhammed, this thread is exactly where it belongs...
