So I received this email while I was at work today :
When I got back, I immediatly jump on my computer to read the whole saga. Well not right away, I did take a walk my dog first. Anyway, it's amazing that, exactly
4 weeks and
3 days (something is going on here) after being a member of this forum and only
2 days (wait a minute, I smell something odd) after joining the big league, I'm involve in some kind of conspiracy or scam or fud (whatever makes you happy). I don't know if we can call it luck :
Not only do I want him to pick my lottery numbers (that's another effin' lie, for I don't play the lottery) [...]
but if I was Phinnaeus Gage, I would not want me to pick lottery numbers for sure.
About the
11-20-2011, what should I be looking for on Google? Is it the Dilbert commic strip (
http://dilbert.com/strips/comic/2011-11-20/)?Ok, so back on track. I'm not simplecoin nor am I related to him. I commented of a nice website and what looks like a easy to use service. Was I wrong? Also, I did not, and will not anytime soon, buy Bitcoin through is website. Heck, I have a btc-e account and never transfer any currency in it. Same thing with my Paxum account. I'm interested in Bitcoin. I want to see it grow and conquer the heart of those who are sick of the current banking system and his fees. I run the client 24/7 to support the network even though I don't have any Bitcoin (well, only 0.05611137 BTC coming from my hard working 1.03 khash/sec miner).
Btw, what do you mean by :
[...] but I want him to pen my biography for, he too, has a command of the English language.
Not quite sure to understand. After all, I am french canadian, eh!
Until the next thrilling saga,
Arfeniel
Well, this is a strange way for Darin to handle the controversy. I feel that following up with comments on his thread would better serve him than that email approach. But, then again, this could be the followup.
Arfeniel, I believe you didn't take the time to read everything I wrote that was in reference to you. If you had, your post would have read differently. For starters, the 11-20-2011 reference, of which I made, has absolutely nothing to do with you or Darin or SimpleCoin. My comment was an aside comment of which I penned directly after typing 11-20-2011 after noticing that it reads backward and forward, the same. My comment 'note to self: Google that number' was a snide reference toward myself, and meant as humor, at my expense, for those who have firsthand knowledge of my Googling skills, or lack thereof. I, being human, have made mistakes in the past, and will continue to make them in the future but, hopefully, will keep them to a bare minimum. That said I've, not once, but twice, have distanced you from this episode. You're not part of a conspiracy. or scam. or fud. Like I've stated twice before, it was the oddness of your post that caused a red flag to be raised in my eyes. Nothing more. You're out of the equation. Anybody here, after reading only the OP and your post, would have come to the same conclusion, although I'm somewhat surprised that I'm the only one, to date. I've done no research on you what-so-ever, with the exception of
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=46434.
After saying all that, I'm now leaning another way after reading your latest post. I'm surprise it has the same defensive tone that Darin has. I'm just saying, for I'm not entirely convinced that an alpaca sock is not in play here. But the hell with all that. Accept my apology if I'm wrong, arfeniel. You're not the key issue here, what-so-ever.
Now, for my dilemma. Although I've yet to post a single direct link, should I do so here, on this thread, or start a new one?
For a person who doesn't have a damn thing to hide, sure the hell's been doing a lot of hiding, of late.
And look at the email I received the other day:
You have just been sent a personal message by simplecoins on Bitcoin Forum.
IMPORTANT: Remember, this is just a notification. Please do not reply to this email.
The message they sent you was:
Bruno, take a look at this and let me know what you think. To me, it doesn't pass the smell test:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=53803.0(I only deleted the name of the person who sent this to me and was located here)Reply to this Personal Message here:
So, as you can now see, there was a prior red flag before I raised my red flag, and only did so after reading the first two posts.
With that, again, where should I post the first link? Here or a new thread? If a new thread, any suggestions of what I should title it? BTW, these questions are not directed toward you, arfeniel, although this post was originally meant only as a reply to you, but it veered off course.
