Re: People are very upset now. The team is literally banning everybody.
1- We haven't banned anybody. We don't censor users ever, if we did they would be here or in Reddit showing proof.
THE BIGGEST LIE OF THE YEAR
This is definitely the biggest lie these people said. They have banned hudrends of people on: discord, telegram, reddit and deleted youtube messages. Nimiq is one of the most censored project. People have been banned and many posted complains on Reddit and Bitcointalk that they have been banned requesting access before. Wasn't @coinfanatic banned on telegram months ago ?

I was personally accused of being a Robin sockpuppet by a telegram mod, for coming into the channel to support him after I read his reddit post. Before being banned I was never given the chance to prove that I wasn't Robin, which would have been trivial--I could have responded with an audio recording of my voice, which would have made it pretty darn obvious I wasn't him--I'm Australian. (Although I completly lost my cool and told one of the mods to fuck themselves as a result of the accusation which may have been the main reason I was banned).
I participated in the ICO, and expressed my concern for the uselessness of the browser miner after launch when it became clear it was a boondoggle. Like many infrequent users of telegram, I deleted my account. I have always had a foot in the webdollar camp as well as the nimiq camp and am critical of both (and so was also accused of being a webdollar shill). Also my account creation was before any of this Robin drama kicked off [but I suppose you'd say that Robin was creating sockpuppets in preparation for the drama].
All this demonstrates is the community is paranoid enough to be so sure that Robin sockpuppeting as to accuse a random users of being him. I never made any personal attacks on Philip or Elion. I demanded to know how much Richy was being paid, and he refused to answer. I can't even remember which mod I told to "fuck you" after the accusation.
All of this says a lot about the honesty with which the team are going to answer any of these AMA questions, of which Robin was the catalyst.

Hi u/btrs_88,
I feel sorry that you had a bad experience in our community. The telegram mods have a hard time with a lot of people only joining to watch and deepen the drama. Especially from the BitcoinTalk community, a lot of FUDers joined the community channels. However, please note that the Telegram moderators are not part of the Nimiq Team and only tried to protect the team and the community. Calling them bad words certainly doesn't help in such situations. I guess you can ask mods to unban your account in a friendly way, soon. Most of the drama will probably be over after the AmA, so mods can get back to the usual approach.
This situation is extraordinary for all of us, so please pardon those that didn't handle it perfectly. There, unfortunately, are no instructions how to handle such things.

They ban the shit out of people. Probably their moderators and the team banned hudrends of people who asked legit questions about their structure and organisation. Even now we don't have an official statement describing the Nimiq Foundation members. Who is President? Is Robin Linus the President (of course, but they don't want to disclose this)
The project is a bad joke and a scam. Sweep all their dirt under the carpet. They always lie. Now they tell us: "we never banned people". Screw you. I have been personally banned on Telegram and Reddit! Many other ICO investors had been banned as well on Telegram by Richy, you and other moderators. JUST BE FRANK AND ADMIT THE TRUTH
We don't censor users. Proof of that is that you, with all your effort, can only find one isolated case of a user that was banned because he behaved like a FUDer (like you, what a coincidence!).
If there were hundreds of people banned and censored users in our community then they will be a lot of angry people here, not just a couple of FUDers talking between each other
The truth? You probably got banned a month ago for doing the same annoying thing you do here but in our Telegram group. Then complained about it in reddit and posted it here trying to look like a different person
You can't censor us on bitcointalk. That the reason why If you could have censored us, all our accounts and all our messages would have been removed a long time ago. You are full of shit. Only lies are coming from your mouth.
You have banned me on Reddit, Telegram, and Discord. I know that you also remove comments from Youtube. You are not only censoring your community, but you are perpetuating a con artist game deceiving people and investors. You are playing with fire and people's money.
