For the record I haven't asked for him to be banned. The stance against China is that not only was he wrong once with this, he's in here provoking people. He's giving people a free pass to just make up any sort of claim and then reply to every single post basically trolling anyone that disagrees with him.

I understand this is the containment/nonsense thread, but at what point does he get told to knock it off?
Actually, from what I've observed, people just keep talking and talking about him (some of them pretty harshly), and then he pops back up to respond.

If I thought for a second him not responding would actually result in things calming down I'd ask him to do it in a heart beat. But since I don't think that's likely, it doesn't seem fair to tell him he doesn't have a right to respond to some of the pretty ridiculous accusations being made against him, here and in other threads.

He can verify that I came down on him very hard when he persisted in his "inside source" Scott Matusow bull****. I don't necessarily believe him this time, either, but I'm not going to cut him off at the knees and allow some of the more vitriolic haters pile on while he's forced to remain silent.

People think that just because demet got banned for posting lunacy and attacking other posters that they can get china banned also if there is enough consensus.

But I think RJ should stop modding this thread because it seems to make her go on tirades against us.

Meh, I'm pretty sure you aren't included in the tirade, since you aren't bashing him.

Everyone just step back. Seriously. Has there been a new thought/opinion posted on this in the last week, or just constant hashing and rehashing of the same stuff, only getting nastier and nastier.

I can only delete/clean up so many times before I feel like my other other option is to start infracting/banning. TBH, I prefer not to do that, or at least not to do that without warning the people who keep stepping over the line that enough is enough. I've gotten enough post reports from this thread in the last two days to convince me that this has gone from heated but okay discussion to pointless abuse.

His actual claim was last week or early this week.

According to all normal people that has already passed. However he has sources connected to FTP that tell him it is coming. We all know what good sources FTP related people have been. He pretends they might also be with the doj or stars but again any reasonable person knows that is not possible.

So his source pool is a shark tank filled with criminals and proven habitual liars.

Cm also has previously been fooled by the charming Scott matusow into reporting inside info that was also bs. China did have some dbag who was banned from here for talking badly about mason's family verify something or other. What was verified has never been determined.

To sum it up china has had a lying criminal FTP employee/relation that has been verified to exist tell him that Pokerstars will have announced a deal to buy ftp last week or early this week (it is 5pm et on Wednesday as I write this and Pokerstars is located many hours ahead of that)

To sum up the sum up, CM peepeed in our coke.

I think a lot of that has to do with the fact that he keeps changing his dates. You of all people have seen the way people react on the day of the last day of "next week" in this thread. So that's what happened last week, and then Monday/Tuesday of this week, and then today.

I actually didn't know that you did that the first time. It just seemed like he vanished and then came back from time to time with some wisecrack about it, and then of course this thing.

I'm good with ignoring him, provided he doesn't post anymore lies. When he does, I feel someone needs to call him out on it. Or am I wrong?

I didn't follow all of the discussion in the other thread, so the only dates I was aware of was what he said about the bets (that he had until midnight of either the 23rd or the 24th, I don't recall which). 24th?

He's been called out, I think. I mean, if tomorrow night comes and goes, he's gone from this thread (until the PS deal is announced) and he'll never be allowed to post "insider information" again, or he actually will be banned.

But yeah, I mean, you're free to point out the inconsistencies and all that. I think it's hard to say he's a liar since he's reporting what a source said (and he 100% believes), not claiming he has the first hand knowledge himself, but I suppose that's more a matter of opinion than anything else.

I don't personally believe he's deliberately misrepresented anything (that radio show theory was pretty LOL) - I think he believes what he's saying 100%.

Oh no def not. I've steered clear of china as much as possible. While people look to him as a potential source of information, I see him as the thread's jester to entertain us.

He's no hdemet, who made sure that it was impossible for you not to reply back with barbs, insults and more trolling.

Just to clarify these points. On the first, he never talked to Scott Matusow. His "source" then was someone pretending to be Scott Matusow.

For the second, the person is Todd Witteles, aka Dan Druff. I don't know/care why he was banned from 2+2, but that doesn't mean he isn't a credible source. Todd isn't China's source for this, but Todd said he knows who China is and knows who China's source is and says that he thinks the source is valid. Todd may be a lot of things, but he's a respected member of the community and would not lie about that.

Doesn't change my feelings towards China's latest claims, but at least some of the details here can be sorted correctly.

agreed

agreed but is sources close to the situation. I never said anything about ftp being my source


. He pretends they might also be with the doj or stars but again any reasonable person knows that is not possible.


So his source pool is a shark tank filled with proven habitual liars.


Ya thats why I had the story of an impending late day deal 10 days before any news outlet.


Cm also has previously been fooled by the charming Scott matusow into reporting inside info that was also bs.

Actually I was never "fooled" of anything

China did have some dbag who was banned from here for talking badly about mason's family verify something or other. What was verified has never been determined.
I don't even know what this means. How would I have the power to get someone banned from here. Your really losing it now


To sum it up china has had a lying criminal FTP employee/relation that has been verified to exist tell him that Pokerstars will have announced a deal to buy ftp last week or early this week

incorrect, a reputable very honest source is more accurate.

i did a little research on chinas hypothese and i can guarantee he is wrong!

a huge number of slam dunk attempts end up like this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8rO_VamKl18

its definitely not a 99,9% chance!


this particular case will end up like this ******ed dunk attempt http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XDUvl...eature=related a reputable source told me!

I've figured it out! China man is actually Howard lederer trying to play a game on us, because he has no other way to talk to the poker community!

Can you confirm with your best friend that your source is a real person. No need to have the validity of the information confirmed, only the existence of the individual.
05-23-2012 , 05:28 PM
Lol, the clippers suck!

Crap, I really need 2+2 to crash for 2 weeks right about now.
05-23-2012 , 05:30 PM
China, when you're guarantee comes and goes and when you can't post anymore "insider" info in this thread, feel free to pm me all of those infos you get.


This is all just so damn childish. Im sure when DOJ reads this thread they are getting the impression that they are fighting for the right guys in order to get their money back.

Just ignore china if you don't believe him, it's not hard

i mean check this out: starts nice and you will realize our chances of getting paid at min 1:55 -2:10!

Are you even serious? Do you think my source is a poker bot or something?

I don't know why they want to ban you Chinamaniac, you are not important enough to get all worked up about . You are either someone in the know (very unlikely) or a troll (much more likely) , but so what?? If we didn't have you , we would have to put up with endless back and forth between Joeyrulesall (Mr Troll) and his victims (hell even DF has to listen to his ravings) So right or wrong , doubt Sgt RJ will get out the hammer.

Will you back that up with an even-money bet?
