What the hell are you talking about?! Rules of the forum have nothing together with Satoshi. Yes, he is kinda one of the oldest participant of the forum, but he doesn't play any role here and did not appear for years.
Really? Satoshi became a member here?! I'm sorry to for contradicting you but I don't think Satoshi never become a member here (based on my experience here in the forum). I was able to say that because I never heard a news or read a thread discussing about satoshi's stay here from the very start that i created my account here 'til now.
Satoshi Nakamoto is a founder of BitcoinTalk forum:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=3

As far as I know, the first forum concerned to Bitcoin was on the SourceForge. Afterwards the current forum powered by SMF was founded by "satoshi" and "Sirius" here.

I don't know about the opinion of Satoshi Nakamoto, but I mostly adopt the merit system deployed on the forum. BitcoinTalk was saved from being full of a lot of very high rank users.
It's such a shame to know that a Sr. Member which is much older/higher than our ranks doesn't know much about Satoshi Nakamoto, I didn't know how he got into this forum, without even searching for the creator of bitcoin or the guy who sold 10,000 BTC for two pizzas.

I bet he never knew about the creators of LTC, ETH and other cryptos have been here too. Grin

Bitcointalk has started to add more rules , more censorship, and bullying from high ranks.  This forum is against everything satoshi believed in now.  Satoshi would be rolling in his grave at all the abuse of power going on here. I call it like I see it.

Everyone here should be treated fairly
What more rules are you talking about? If it's about the merit system, it's maybe unfair to low ranks like us, but it's how they could track the signature bounty abusers.

Honestly, it was ironic that only few weeks left before my rank up, the merit system was implemented. It shattered my hope to tell my grandkids that I was a member of this forum with high rank, in case they will ask me about cryptocurencies.
