Re: Bitcoin XT - Officially #REKT (also goes for BIP101 fraud)
XT opened a debate
There you go again, thinking you know WTF you're talking about when you actually do not.
The block size debate has been ongoing, in the proper Lserv/IRC/BIP channels, for many years.
Just because your Redditurd Army recently discovered the topic and quickly developed Strong Opinions does not indicate XT "opened a debate."
The debate has been open since 2009. The subjective appearance of novelty by which you are afflicted is a cognitive artifact resulting from your status as a N00B who should listen more and talk less, or GTFO.
you are the person that thinks its dead
I wish you all the best in your grieving transitions from the denial stage, on through bargaining, and to a final acceptance.
Pedanticism and arrogance don't make for good arguments. Of course I know that there has been prior discussion of removing the 1MB limit. Thats not the same as 'the block size debate' though. You know it, but you'd rather avoid acknowledging the specific difference for fear of exposing the reality of the situation that the 1MB limit is temporary and should be removed. That much is true.
Back to form you are. Mudslinging, pithy, obnoxious. These are characteristics of someone who has a weak argument and just wants to try and bully those who disagree into submission.
This argumentative thread makes no difference, the market will decide, so you and beg can get as angry as you like about everyone not agreeing with you but ultimately its only yourselves you are hurting.
Either they are paid by a big block institution to show how disgusting the small blockers are; or they do not realize how repulsive and counterproductive they act for the cause they postulate. Both possibilities seem nearly impossible: To be that corrupt and to be that stupid. It remains a mystery.
