What happened:: In October 2015 Dooglus edited code for a ponzi script in order to fix some bugs with said ponzi script.

Reference Link: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1216193.0;all (archive), https://github.com/dooglus/CryptoPonzi (archive) and https://github.com/dooglus/CryptoPonzi/branches (archive)

It seems that some people feel that "supporting" a ponzi in any way is considered to be scamming, and editing code for a ponzi certainly would fall under the category of "supporting" a ponzi.

Even more people are strongly against the sale of ponzi scripts and the advertising of a ponzi in their signature, which is very similar to the benefits that dooglus has provided.

Additional Notes: The ponzi in question claims to be "risk free" because if not enough people continue to "invest" in the ponzi that you will receive returns via POS staking, however this is simply not true because the CLAMs you send to the ponzi will be used to payout previous "investors" leaving nothing to stake. This means that not only was dooglus supporting a ponzi, but he was supporting a ponzi that was dishonest about the risks involved in "playing" such ponzi.

This completes the first part of my series of the transgressions of Dooglus
Part 1: Dooglus supporting ponzis [/url]

As far as i know (assuming the topic would be still a live) a PSA would be posted and everyone advertising or supporting the ponzi after that will be tagged. Thats how CD does it and its posted here how it works.

So the main question for me is now: Is this topic about supporting the fight against ponzis or is this a gathering of some old fags that are butthurt for whatever reasons, throwing dirt at each other. If its the second thing then: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TRBs_F74Nek

In addition: How about working on the current problems instead of dragging out personal bitchfights in public? Well, everybody is free to start where ever he wants...

Want me to post an PSA in that thread??

For QS it's more than likely a vendetta but he does bring up a good point.

With the current anti-ponzi view going on in the forum it looks really bad when someone who's voice seems to matter actively fixes and provides a ponzi script for download via their github.

It looks even worse when others who voices seem to matter as well chime in with support for doing this.

Personally I couldn't care less if people do whatever with ponzis as its a good lesson to those that get scammed to not do it again. Lessons learned are best done the hard way.

But if rules apply for some then they must apply to all.

Like posted before, if the post is addressed to CD, he would post a PSA and tag all future supporters. Thats why my question is: What is the thread really about?

Speaking so, i could post a PSA and i would tag doog if he goes on supporting it after that post. we all knew: this will not happen.

A PSA warning users about the CryptoPonzi script would be a good thing for the community as it will make more people aware of it and they can watch out for websites that use it.

Edit- On a side note, a stickied thread with the current and past ponzis may be beneficial as well or possibly a detailed guide on how to tell when a site is operating like a ponzi as a warning to people.
