Are you saying it's an actual strategy?

I'm afraid it is a strategy. The trolling coupled with deflection could convince a naive individual that the rest of us are really the trolls.

To me it looks like just some garbage generated by an unhinged sockpuppeting troll, and if someone gets fooled by that then I'd argue they would be sending money to a Nigerian prince if not for BSV.

Naivete and the lack of experience doesn't automatically mean someone is dumb. It wasn't that long ago that I would have refereed to myself as naive and inexperienced, and I'd like to think of myself as "not dumb."

I'm not holding my breath for any serious enforcement of ban evasions now that we have ban-evading DT members.

I agree with Nutildah that the Bitcoin SV account is probably controlled by the same person as Korner, but I'm not sure I would ban the account based on the evidence presented here. I would would want something more concrete.

The trolling alone should be enough to warrant a ban, but given we have had to put up with cryptohunter/TOAA trolling the entire forum and derailing threads left, right, and center with walls of gibberish for over a year now, it seems that the "No trolling" rule is being firmly ignored.

Unfortunately trolling is subjective. At what point does a contentious debate turn into "trolling?"

We can all agree that Bitcoin SV, cryptohunter et al, game-protect, and roach are trolls, and probably should be banned for trolling. Almost any other forum I've frequented would have banned them for a fraction of what they've been able to get away with. But those aren't this forum. One of the reasons I love this forum as much as I do is because of the freedom allowed, and the tolerance of moderators. I tend to believe theymos wants a forum with no restrictions on speech, with an emphasis on freedom. I can get behind that. If it means dealing with these shitbirds, that's a price worth paying in my opinion.
