The scenarios are not even remotely similar. Stop it. Lauda (along with minerjones and blazed) profited from their role in a scam that saw users lose their funds because Lauda sent them to a scammer without anyone else's approval (not to mention storing them on an exchange when he claimed he'd store them at a multisig address). I safeguarded forum BTC and returned 100% of them along with additional alts.
Never touching the forum's BTC was something I did for the forum. Where is the BCH/BSV/BTG I should have received for the payments for my treasury services I didn't receive until months/years later? Seems odd that the forum didn't pay me the forked coins after the fact, even though I paid them to the forum. Did I complain? Nope. This is my first mention of it, perhaps to justify my "tacky" behavior.
Let's stop the childish name calling and criticizing my good deeds. I returned what theymos asked for, even though I had no obligation to do so with the forks and I did it quickly with a positive attitude. It was a good deed and I feel I went above and beyond by never complaining for missed back pay, and always doing whatever I was asked.
