dinofelis is the same guy (anonymint) same style, same talking points.
Nope ,
I had week long arguments with both, definitely two different guys.
This thread has become so entertaining. My favorite part is when Shelby quotes that ego article. It's like he's so convinced he's an A-lister that he fails to comprehend what a real A-lister has to say on the matter. Anyone that is or is close to A-listers knows without a doubt that Shelby is nothing more than a wannabe b-lister lol.
Which confirms what I posted earlier, whether you agree or disagree with him, he is probably the most entertaining poster in all of BTCTalk,
and his constant posting generates more ad revenue than others.
If Theymos wanted to play this a better way , would be to give Shelby his own Discussions forum and split the ad revenue with him for that forum.
Anyone that does not want to read Shelby thoughts can stay out of that specific forum.
Those that do, which are numerous , could enjoy it , without mods banning him for a rule system , that to be quite honest many here don't agree with anyway.
Permaban does nothing but kill a screen name as the technically literate can evade it, if they so choose.
Shelby brings up points that makes you think, some will agree some won't , but censorship of his thoughts in a forum that needs posts to gain more ad revenue is self defeating.
IMO, either kill the permaban or give the guy his own forum here and be done with it, because otherwise this meta forum will be the most popular of all your foums and take a lot of your Mods time that could be spent on better things.
In trying to become another man's Jailer , you also imprison yourself with him.
