There is a really (otherwise) interesting and important thread in BFI about bitcoin. But there is a problem because Toothsayer is using it for his own personal attacking grounds trying to stir up conflict with any poster that doesn't understand what he is doing.

He doesn't have even a basic understanding of what bitcoin is an how it works. This is easy to demonstrate to anyone who themselves DOES have a basic understanding of the technology (but not so easy to those that are new to bitcoin).

So no decent discussion can occur because its modless. And I know this has been brought up before but it can't be solved unless a mod is chosen that has a proper understanding of bitcoin.

Toothsayer has a clear style of:

1) making assertions constantly and repeatedly
2) making long winded posts and excessive posts that bury proper counter arguements
3) Ignoring reputable posts and counter arguements and taking on battles with posters that don't understand what he is doing.
4) Inserting constant character attacks through his assertions.
5) His posts have zero integrity (ie "I know you are but what am I")

We can find countless examples of this disruptive behavior:

Now STFU and let the adults talk, you're embarrassing yourself and the human race with your nutty RACISM bullshit. You're such an idiot.

And by the way, calling someone a racist is a huge personal attack. You're the scum that aggressively started all this. Now you're complaining about personal attacks (and correct ones) you're getting back. Have some self awareness, Jesus. But I guess if you weren't an idiot you wouldn't have started this stupid derail in the first place.

How much a racist, ignorant piece of trash do you have to be to know so little about other cultures that you have it 180 degrees wrong even after someone tells you how it is? Just amazing stuff. Maybe instead of yelling "RACISM" on the internet like some deranged loser, be less of a racist shut-in yourself and go out and meet and make friends with some Indian people so you at least wtf you're talking about next time. Like I have and do. You've demonstrated from your posting you know next to nothing about other cultures.

They're not vague assertions, they're observations based on basic facts about bitcoin, you fool, and I elaborated on them in a previous recent post which you ignored because you got owned so hard. Your inability to say what is wrong with the quoted is either because you can't (and you can't; they're both factual) or because you're just trying to dodge.

you really need to move on from Krishnamurti, he's not sophisticated enough for people who are no longer young teen boys

I'm able to do all of those things and have amply demonstrated the same. jbouton is a guy who takes Krishnamurti seriously as an adult. I grew out of him at 13 after reading most of his books.


I don't "want" to do anything. You're so stupid you're confusing "wanting", "needing" and "describing".

Seems a bit sick in the head bro

You're still stuck in the semantic fog that cuck philosophers like Krishnamurti reach their ceiling in. There's a reason that, after a being a fan of him and reading most of his works at 13, I quickly grew out of him and saw his flaws as my brain matured. That you still venerate him as an adult is embarrassing for you.


When did you stop beating your wife? I never claimed bitcoin was a hackable software. You are so incredibly stupid you can't even follow what I'm saying. As for your questions, lol? This isn't a pop quiz with you as the judge, grandpa. The arrogance.

The arrogance you display here is incredible. You're having a little jerk off session in the corner where you think I don't know anything about bitcoin because I'm completely destroying all your dumb arguments. It's so insecure.

These are just from the last few pages and basically the majority of posts in the thread are him doing this. He has no intention of discussing bitcoin and only intention on finding conflict. And to be clear not all of these quotes are directed at me.

His response displays what I'm pointing at in my points:

Quote:
You're literally doing what you're accusing me of the last 10 posts. I could quote your posts but I have more respect for the thread than that; people can simply scroll up. I try to talk facts and evidence and logic; when you inevitably lose horribly in that discussion, you go on pure attacks.

Your entire schtick since you got owned on this discussion has been to attack me. Once again you continue with ad hominems. What you quote is just me throwing your own attacks back at you.

...
Did I quote him just throwing my own attacks back at him? Does anyone here believe that hes to sincere enough to quote my ad hominems?

This has already been discussed an there has been no reasonable active moderation to stop this disruptive behavior. Can there be appointed a mod that has even a basic level understanding of bitcoin on a technical level?

Hello newb.

Green's aren't gods -- most of them don't even have a degree in rocket science (weird, right?).

But you'd be best advised not to fcuk with them.

Best thing to do with toothsayer is ignore him even though i am guilty of engaging him on occasion. He seems like a sad individual who lives in his moms basement with some grand illusion of being a successful equities trader.

That said BFI could do with a more active mod if this thread can be left up for 48 hours.

Yes i have just reported it.

The earliest post report for that thread was 1.5 hours ago. I don't know how it works in that forum, but in many forums here the mods only react to post reports and let their posters kind of self-police the forum. One could blame the mods for not removing it sooner. One could also blame the posters for not reporting it sooner. We're all in it together.

Ye i don't blame the mods at all its a thankless and unpaid task. The higher volume sub forums don't seem to require post reports as mods are active and nip things in the bud very quickly. BFI is on the opposite end of the spectrum where more or less anything goes and toxic, bad faith posters are allowed to dominate threads and suck all the life out of them.

That's definitely true for spam threads, because every mod can delete them if they see one. And it's probably more likely that a mod of a low volume sub forum shows up in NVG than vice versa.

For everything that happens within legit threads, mods of high volume sub forums very much rely on post reports, too. If you see a post that's in violation of forum rules, please report it.

I thought worshipping at the altar of disruption was a major tenet in the blonkchain religion?

If you had a modicum of sense you wouldn't respond to TS. He didn't stop when his other accounts were banned and he isn't going to stop now. That you keep engaging with someone whom you believe is clueless and antagonistic suggests there might be some truth to the things he's saying about you.
