Oh, how I love Meta
Reading through the last few pages warms my heart.
All I see is fukem! Theyre good for nothing trolls. They dont matter, none of them will ever make it to DT, and even if they did, bla bla and so forth. But I smell your fear. The fact that youre all here, discussing a bunch of inconsequential no gooders in depth, shows were unto something.
It is worth noting that when this movement started it was one mans idea. It has so far ballooned to 20 or so accounts in 9 days. And this is a thread buried deep in the reputation sub, where only a small number of users on this forum visit.
The initial reactions were hilarious; threads popped everywhere demanding bans and blacklists. Lol! When that failed, the tune changed to oh dont worry; they will never achieve the required merit threshold to get into DT.
The best lesson Ive learnt in my very short life is to never say never.
A few weeks ago Laudas ratings were worthless and last week Ognasty wasnt on DT. Some of the newbie DTs running around making definitive statements about how it will never happen, had no idea theymos would move things around.
Who is to say that theymos, after smoking some crack sometime in the near future, wouldnt change things again? The simple truth is that bitcointak is subject to on mans whims, but then I digress
.
As long as certain people on DT keep abusing their powers, change is nigh. Resist it all you want, wish it away, but it will happen.
It may not happen now and maybe not through us. I honestly dont expect this movement to succeed. Nonetheless, I signed up to make my voice heard because there is strength in numbers. As individuals, none of us could have made enough noise to be heard as we are now.
They said Trump would never win the presidency
They said brexit would never happen
Leicester was 5000/1 to win the premier league
Serena Williams crashed out from the 2019 Aussie open after going 5-1 up in the third set. But we were told none of these would happen. Impossible!
These are all recent modern examples, and as you can tell, I am a betting man. And I will gladly wager that, the current state of affairs regarding DT on this forum wont remain the same for long if things dont improve soon.
Ill leave you all to your pillow talk. Thanks for having me.
preach brother
the response to my thread has been outstanding
it has been the center of attention on meta and reputation boards and elicited a response from theymos
"""20 or so""" was a week ago
surely are more now and grow every day
thread will be added to lists of historic threads and live on for eternity
if we win us early adopters will be heroes
will you wear a signature pointing to the thread if i make one for you ?thinking about starting a donation based BTC signature campaign
YES! and I'll donate to the campaign.
any takers?
BTW, are signatures allowed for this type of thing? I will gladly pay for a set if folks will wear them without fear. Hopefully, they can help spread the word about this thread and the vile chancers ruining this forum.
Any interested and competent signature designers reading this can pm me with their samples and price. Don't mind the fake ratings on my trust, but if it bothers you, I'll go 1st if you're "trusted" or we use an escrow.
About meriting, surely, it wouldn't be considered manipulation if awarded to good posts, regardless of whether the poster is an "undesirable"? In this case a thread like this would suffice:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5093271.0 - where posters can report good unmerited post and anybody can merit them if they choose to.
