That isn't what he said, and you know it.
dinofelis, your only discernible input on this forum is misrepresenting facts in a (kind of) subtle way. Well, you're also good at avoiding direct debunking of the things you say which aren't true.
You ought really to be banned, as it's too obvious that you're not interested in any kind of constructive debate, and never have been (unfortunately, dinofelis is likely the owner of many accounts that have been created with a suspiciously similar style of debate, only adding to the perception that the owner is very intent on wasting everyone's time on Bitcointalk.org)
Are you the one they send in to abuse people and if they answer back they get banned because many of you're posts seem to be picking a fight with people not
quite seeing things your way.
That isn't going to be happening, the best strategy with your posts is to skim-read them until one finds the deliberate errors you try to promote as facts
I wonder why you have not been banned or are you in with the owners ?
Definitely agreeing with you here RNC, these guys are the aggressive ones... I feel like we're all reading a different conversation, or there is some joke I'm just not getting?
I read this entire discussion, followed the links and sources cited by everyone, did more research on my own to understand the conversation a little better as it's quite meaningful.
All I see is these guys bashing on dinofelis when he/she is the only one keeping their cool, while engaging in discussion, rebuking their points, and them occasionally rebuking his, but after they do, and he replies to their point with more validation, they seem to disappear or get defensive/aggressive and bark about something different.
So, yeah, you all raised different points of which I can't comprehend all of it, but, for the most part, I learned a lot from this discussion, and seeing the negativity towards dinofelis seems pretty unfounded and unfair and completely pointless to the discussion.
As an outsider, learning about this more technical stuff, he/she is the only one that doesn't seem like an asshole. If he/she is wrong, just cite your sources and outsiders like me will side with you, not your shitty aggressiveness.
Can any other experts please weigh in, as dino has been carrying this thread with good and meaningful discussion, not only on the technology front but the whole different perspectives/philosophies surrounding BTC.
Spurred by a good question from Anyonmous_kid that just sent me down the rabbit hole for 2 hours of reading/researching.
Now please, thank each other for allowing less technically inclined people like me to view/understand a more nuanced technology, still in it's infancy, so that we plebs can better conceptualize/visualize the whole eco-system surrounding block-chain technology/btc.
Anyway, I literally created this account to say this because I feel that this forum is very useful and much better than reddit, and then I see assholes on here that have "legendary" status that just get away with shit-talking others but not getting modded or actually providing empirical evidence, or any research/sources other than hearsay to refute, what feels like a good discussion.
Bah, whatever, thank you, stop being mean, I really enjoy the discussion and the debate is good for us plebs, make us feel better knowing even you smarter folk have varying perspectives on this whole crypto-movement thing, just drop the attitude, it's quite pathetic and makes things confusing for us less-technically inclined people trying to decipher fact from anecdotal points of view.
