you dont ask to be taken off the list
take me off the list.
Oops, I didn't mean that list specifically. I mean the list of cult or gang members you have a picture of in your head when you think of Lauda. I am not a part of any such gang, though Lauda and a few other DT members do share the same opinions I have about how this forum ought to be cleaned up, which is why we appear to be on the same side of a lot of issues--mainly shitposting, account selling, scamming, and how those things should be dealt with. I am not a part of any behind-the-scenes conspiracy to run bitcointalk, however, and only occasionally do I exchange even so much as a PM with other DT members. Even then, it's not usually anything I haven't said publicly. I get the feeling that you guys think that's what's happening, and I'm just telling you I'm not involved in any such thing.
So when I said to leave me off that list, I meant that list of DT members/Lauda-cultists that I think you've imagined is much more organized and conspiratorial than you think.
