Depends.
If you say you had a sandwich for lunch I will accept that is true whether it is or is not, since it is reasonable to believe and there is no rational reason for you to lie about that.
If you claim you are the victim of 1 in a multi trillion luck then yeah I will ask you to prove it.
Go figure.
You can try to insult me all you like, the reality is all you have done thus far is tell "a whopper" without showing any of the real meat.

Actually, if someone (like you) says "here are the numbers" I simply ask for the database that includes those numbers. Generally that results in people like you hurling insults and making all sorts of emotional outbursts.
Bluster is fun, but we still have no actual database from you (some have even offered to analyze it).
Where's the beef?

Bleh, after a Wendy's and Burger King reference I am unable to come up with a good McDonalds one. Oh well.
Spooky beliefs about my secret employers (already made it clear that it is the Lizard People sheesh) will still not distract from the fact that you have yet to provide any actual data other then your made up bad beat stories.
Why?

Woo, wacky economic conspiracies using all of the good ones!
Know what Enron, World Com, Maddoff and the evil poker sites have in common?
None care as much about you as you think.
Oh, and if you utilized proper bankroll management you would not have lost it all.

Odds are your troubles were caused by your lack of bankroll management (coupled with perhaps not being as good as you think) as opposed to a massive conspiracy against you.
Again, you just are not that important. Sorry.

Its amazing that when examined under these conditions the "Big Stack" runs 5%-20% better than should.
Woo, wacky rigged beliefs, my favorite kind. The "sure it all looks normal, but the HIDDEN TRUTH is that it is not." Maybe it is just "curved data" like that guy has suggested in the huge thread...
Tell you what, since you know the secret truth about pattern mapping of big stacks and small stacks why not adjust your game to take that into consideration and profit.

20 times in a row 4 in 10,000,000,000
Again, I will go with the belief that the odds that you are not telling the truth (whether you actually believe what you are saying or not) is greater then 1 in 2.5 billion.
All the best.
