After all, i know how much work it can be to fight this problem when there is an endless supply of new farmed accounts ready to try to replace "blacklisted" accounts. You were the only mod i could see doing anything. (but now you got yourself fired)

Indeed. They keep on coming, although I think they may be more oriented towards the altcoin projects (I may be wrong). I'm also not going to comment the activities of any particular staff member. Cheesy

Two (global?) mods have told me tonight i should get a new hobby. Piss off rizzlarolla?

One is a global moderator, the other is not. I'll just leave this as a comment: Roll Eyes

Yeah, a lot are gone, some are sold(?). The remainer's (in the higher ranks) have overseen bitcointalks decline. I'm not well versed in DT.

Correct. Some do get sold and some end up scamming (there was a case this very month IIRC). I can explain the trust system properly; just PM me if you want.

Ok, i probably should have said core or blockstream? Luke j also moderates?

From what I can see, luke-jr is not a moderator.

Quite "thought provoking" my post. You don't seem to have any real big problem with my thinking Lauda?

I've wanted to correct some minor mistakes as there are people who are just silently reading this. I'm pretty much with you on this, excluding the speculative thoughts as to who's behind it. I personally prefer not to speculate that much.

While I *in principle* agree with the spirit of what @rizzlarolla is saying, perhaps there are other scenarios that should be explored, for example who would want to discredit BitCoins? Real Banks or even law enforcement who might perceive (without understanding the power of BlockChain), that crypto currencies are a threat?

Interesting assertion. The situation is most surely damaging to the ecosystem.
