+1 the people who have forum handles here and are associated with the something aweful forum need to come out here and say they are - so we can separate the trolls from real members - what do you say about that? if we find more then half come from that stupid forum then Bruce is being attacked falsely...I suspect this.
I'm from somethingisawful.com. Can you really claim a false attack when we're just pointing out stuff that's really easy to find on the internet? I used to defend Bruce. Sure, I didn't agree with his views on bitcoins, but I thought he was a lovable dupe following his dream.
It's hard to hold that opinion when you find information that he was involved in a mortgage scam stealing money from people, though:
