Backpeddling and sidestepping....

is all i see in this post.

Edit: Still don't believe it wasnt you who posted as DannyMaddox that "truthful" story.

[Etlase2]

i am not even reading what you wrote but


ell oh fucking ellllll

[smoothie]

Backpeddling and sidestepping....

is all i see in this post.

and when Coblee admits he knew.......then what.

Doesn't make me forget that "DannyMaddox" posted a bullshit story that hasn't been proven to be true.

Your comments and lies only give more reason to believe you posted that BS story about the bomb threats and raping threats.

Edit: If coblee knew then I have lost much respect for him. He knows how much people are working on things to make this network better. If he knowingly let you spout lies all over this forum and btc-e then I do not have respect for him. I think many would agree with my stance.

[bitlane]

This is getting out of control. BCX, WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU ?

Bitlane posted that to be a hero but had no clue that this was a preplanned thing. For all I know, you and Bitboy are the same person.

BLAH BLAH BLAH....SIDE STEP SIDE STEP....

@Bitlane....which mods can identify who you are by name through PMs? Please name them.

I dont believe a damn thing BCX posts until he reveals his identity at this point. I've already revealed mine through exchanges of goods on this forum.


FYI THIS THREAD IS A POSSIBLE ATTEMPT BY BCX TO AVERT ATTENTION FROM THE DANNYMADDOX ACCUSATIONS.

[Tomatocage]

Coblee works at Google?

[Bitcoin Oz]

Coblee works at Google?

Perhaps litecoin is his 20% project and google servers can farm it easier

[bitlane]

Nothng, what are you gong to say when Coblee corroborates this?

Listen. This started out as nothing more than a pissing contest between you and myself, along with a few others....

BUT, DO YOU REALIZE HOW DEEP OF A HOLE YOU HAVE DUG with the Danny Maddox stuff ? This is serious and more importantly, seriously disturbing.

You were more than happy to attack ME, the guy who was trying to call your bluff, than the supposed guy that called you a stalker, master manipulator and a potential rapist ?

How far are you going to take this ?

My identity has been confirmed on the Lending Forum. Contact the 'Bankers' (Burt, Pattrick) or anyone who I have bought/sold with/to in the Marketplace.

I don't doubt your ID.

Let's see if you identity checks out. Ha! Didn't think so...

Which mods on this forum can attest to you actually revealing your identity so that we can better know you aren't just hiding eh?

I smell a rat....

It explains why coblee told btc-e.com to reopen.

On Monday I noticed that most of the LTC pools were getting DDos'd to hell
...

Most? Bullshit.

[smoothie]

On Monday I noticed that most of the LTC pools were getting DDos'd to hell and all the signs of pending 51% attack were evolving. I decided to try and do something about. So BEFORE I did anything I ran this by Coblee, he's known from the start that I was going to give you guys a focal point to rally against since all of you just moped around and stayed in the pools like morons. I didn't care if you guys hated me or not.

I have the PM's prior to the attack to and from Coblee that Theymos can verify if needed. Coblee has said he will admit if necessary.


To try and convince you guys a real attack was happening, I paid for $400.00 worth of EC2 to spike the unknown hashrate up to 70% to alarm you guys and you all let morons like Bitlane tell you "oh, don't worry"....

It's was a lot faster and easier to set up the paid verses my freebie EC2's from work.

IDIOTS, why would I ever attack Litecoin, I protected Litecoin in the early days, I helped build it and many times proped it up the coin just to bump it past SC. Some good has come of this, the DDoS stopped because for a while a lot of you did jump on solo.

Bottom line is, Coblee knew I wasn't really going to attack Litecoin. He knew ahead of time. Just to be clear it was entirely my idea, but he knew.

As bad as I hate to admit Coinhunter was right, some form of 51% attack protection is needed as a hard coded feature. Hashrate alone isn't enough because the nature of humans just suck.



~BCX~

Just in case...

[coblee]

So after I came out and told BCX that I've lost all respect for her(?) if she attacks Litecoin, I got this PM:

Geez, don't sweat it, I'm not going to hit it hard enough to hurt it.

Have you noticed the hash rate in LTC has jumped 200K in the past hour. These guys needed a public face to rally against and defeat the DDoS going on.

Just keep this to yourself.

So I was not sure what to think of this. I'm not sure what she meant by "not going to hit it hard enough to hurt it."
Either BCX is really just faking this attack to help Litecoin against an attack by someone else (because pools were indeed getting DDoS'd and there definitely was a possibility that someone is trying to 51% the network) OR BCX is lying to me in PM to hope that I do nothing to try to stop her. Since I didn't know BCX well enough, I couldn't just take her word for it. So I decided to treat BCX's threat as real. So that's how I've acted initially towards this attack. And if the attack indeed turns out to be a bluff, it would be a learning experience to see how our community handles such an attack. I believe we will get attacked for real eventually if this was not real.

Since BCX announced when she was going to fork the network, I decided that the best defense was to just put a checkpoint in 12-24 hours after she forked it. This way if enough people upgraded, she would have wasted all the time and money and had to refork after the checkpoint if she was going to continue the attack. So that's what I did. In the meantime, I got a few more PM's from BCX:

Have you noticed how the DDoS has stopped on the pools since I started all of this.

Well you kinda put me in a position to have to carry through now by telling them you didn't think I could

Honestly I don't care if they don't like me. In a matter of two days I have galvanized this community, the DDos have stopped, and LTC is at 0.0063.

At this point in time (Thursday), I've decided that BCX's threat was indeed a bluff. Maybe she was just trying to help Litecoin in a weird twisted way. I told people that I thought the attack was a bluff and even if it was not, I believed our network hashrate was large enough to make it prohibitively expensive to attack us. And I decided there was no reason to do another checkpoint and told BTC-e that I think it's safe to open up deposit/withdrawal.

So that's my side of the story.

[disclaimer201]

So, BCX - are you Paul Holcomb? Just wondering. Definitely not a girl, at least biologically.

[coblee]

But you did know about it from the beginning and it was my idea.

Yes, the PM you sent me is timestamped above. And theymos of any other moderator can confirm this.

[AndrewBUD]

What a happy ending... Now KISS

[ElectricMucus]

For what it's worth there is some recent spike in the BTC hashrate, which could be either huge network variance or a bunch of GPUs going online which in turn could have been used to attempt a 51% attack on LTC.
