I understand that I, Shelby Moore III (aka Anonymint), even while perma-banned am allowed to create a new user account strictly for posting to the Meta subforum on this anonymously managed and anonymously owned forum bitcointalk.org website which some people mistakenly think is the canonical or official website for discussions related to Bitcoin or the cryptotokens (aka blockchain) ecosystem in general.

Yeah, it was Anonymint (or at the very least someone pretending to be him). A statement from theymos on why Anonymint is banned from the forum:

[…]

tl;dr he refused to follow the forum's rules, got temp banned several times, ban evaded and continued breaking the rules, got permabanned and continues creating new accounts and ban evading.

For anyone still not aware of the roller coaster that is the Anonymint general discussion thread, feel free to check it out: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1887077.0.

There are two sides to every story. I explained my side of the story at the following blog:

https://steemit.com/freedom/@anonymint/non-decentralized-forums-are-clusterfucks-of-corruption

Please note the section I added to that blog just now (if you had read it before):

Lack of Compassion For the Morbidly Ill

I sometimes wonder if the people who criticize me at bitcointalk.org have any compassion for anything. Sometimes they are highly abusive.

And/or if they completely lack comprehension of what the word delirium means. They must think I am exaggerating when I explain that my mental condition resembled delirium for much of the time from 2013 onwards, and especially so after approximately May 2015 when the Tuberculosis took me down into the worst of it. Even as of 2016, I didn’t know I had Tuberculosis. Here was a copy of my medical report.

Delirium means thoughts are scrambled in a meat grinder.

Basically every fucking day for the past 5 years, I struggled (like a slithering worm that has been stepped on) to stay awake and struggled with the (chronic insomnia) inability to sleep, while constantly being inside of a mental meat grinder and entirely exhausted always. With all due respect to you the reader, I don’t think you have any fucking clue what I was going through. I am blind in one eye and most people can’t even tolerate covering their one eye for 15 seconds, and my blindness is an easy stroll through the park compared to the illness I suffered through.



I know there are others who post on bitcointalk.org that are also chronically ill. But I don’t know if they’re experiencing the same horrific meat grinder delirium, total exhaustion (from years upon years of no sleep), and extreme total body feeling of horrific unwellness, discomfort, and nausea from entire dysfunction (and partial shutdown/devolution) of the digestive, endocrine, and immune systems. Fuck does any reader know what it feels like to slowly die over a period of years while your organs degrade? Those who die from TB usually die from a ruptured blood vessel or organ failure.

Note though even as ill as I was, I didn’t lose appreciation that there are others worse off than me and not to look down on them as so many boyz at bitcointalk.org do thinking they’re superior to the slobs who never bought Bitcoin yet.

Do you realistically expect someone who is as ill as I was to always think clearly, be always fully aware of all their actions, and to be in a cheerful mood? And to endure the sort of ridicule (they also ridiculed Chris Langan who has a 200 IQ) I endured wherein they even blamed my illness, poverty, lack of quality healthcare, problems with my ex-wife, accused me of being a bad parent (c.f. also and also), etc. all on me. WTF? So I should be nice?

And @‍mprep is the moderator for Altcoin Discussion where those linked posts above are located, yet he never did anything to maintain civilized discussion (note I didn’t start that “Bitcoin Killer” thread so I had no power to moderate it although we can see his red colored comments inserted in my posts where he had deleted some of the content in my posts, so clearly he was reading all the attacks against me).
Perhaps @‍mprep was bought off as implied by @‍‍stereotype?




You are telling me anunymint was the real anonymint?

He confirms that to me via Crypto.cat, so yes.

He doesn’t confirm anything to YOU via Crypto.cat

You are him.

How many BTC would you like to bet (and lose!) on that?

@Traxo communicates with me regularly on Crypto.cat. I appreciate very much his support and assistance. He is a very kind and understanding person.

He oftens checks in every day with me but sometimes I am too busy to talk to him. Today he didn’t come online probably because it is Sunday and presumably because the past 2 days were exhausting for him. Even I am age 53 and still slightly ill (but significantly improved health) and he AFAIR age 20-something, he can’t keep up with me, lol. (actually he can, we just have only partially overlapping waking hours)

@Traxo is AFAIK in Croatia. I believe he’s in Croatia because he has explained to me about the life there. Whereas, I am in the Philippines. AFAIK, neither of us post from VPNs. I always post from my same PLDT Internet Service Provider unless I am traveling. I have read that @Traxo says he always posts from his Croatian ISP and not a VPN. I do use a VPN when I sign-up new accounts, because this site has banned PLDT presumably because of me (lol), which means no filipinos can sign-up for this forum using the most popular ISP in the country unless they pay a BTC fee after signing up. I avoid that fee by using a VPN to sign-up. After signing up, I switch back to using my PLDT account. Note that although the BTC is minuscule, the transaction fee for sending BTC from wallet (not an exchange) is still unreasonably high for many filipinos to pay.






Quite aggravating. A curated filter mechanism would be preferable to banning, especially when the ban is arbitrary.

Bitcoin is not a moderated system (yet) and the supporting communication channels also need to be free from authoritarian decree.

I have not been participating on this forum for some time, partially because of the excessive noise and mod actions, mostly due to the fact that Bitcoin is now a mite boring.

Good luck to all those still participating - may you spend ever more time enjoying life rather than staring at displays Smiley

Most of the truly wealthy such as yourself have left.

I hope you’re enjoying life on the ocean.

I am still slaving away on the computer, trying to get healthy and reach a goal.






Who said mining nodes were a joke? All nodes and any node are important in the network, non-mining nodes or mining nodes. From the node's perspective, they are only fellow nodes and does not care or know that it is a "mining node" or not.

You keep repeating that nonsense even through I carefully explained to you why it is no so and only mining nodes matter.
