Shelby has been here for 5 years also. I bet he was online in the forum more than you. Why are you so special?

I don't doubt he was online more than me, that stat is also irrelevant. I actually never indicated that I thought I was special. If you think I'm special well thanks that's nice of you! I am however a user just like you and Shelby, thus my opinion is as valid as your's or his! Incidentally one of the difference's (and it doesn't make me special, thousands of users managed this!) between his 5 years and mine is that I've been able to follow the rules and not get banned.

I read what both sides claim and ~~we all have to choose which side they feel~~[I must chose for everyone what] is right.

FTFY

If that's how you read what I wrote then there is little to say on that. Advocating to follow very few, very simple rules is simply not trying to chose for everyone and frankly it's a ridiculous transition.

Nobody has answered his repeated up-thread What rules?

Of course they have, try to look at the responses again. Constantly evading your ban, ie sneaking back when banned is breaking the rules, is this that difficult to actually understand?

Bottom line is you totalitarians think he is incorrigible and you want to control him but you do not apply the same control to all users of the forum as he has documented.

The argument that just because other users aren't caught and punished therefore when I am caught and punished it is a conspiracy is so fucking tired and old, especially around here, it's like calling everyone Nazis, give us a break.

And you are unwilling to submit to decentralized moderation stored on a decentralized ledger. And thus bitcointalk.org must be disintermediated, because as you can see (as Shelby warned you last year) the spam is getting worse and the users are growing weary of the junk posts.

Mod policy has little to with me but I am will to submit to the current forum rules. I can hear it now the whole bunny in the wood chipper, ya ya I know, I'm a happy little bunny!

The forum is dying. Observe what happens.

I agree the forum has a SERIOUS signal to noise ratio problem but it really doesn't seem like an easy fix (or it would have happened already). I am still hopeful a solution can be found!
