It's like being a spy or CIA afterward you then you try to make people think you were never a spy but then a couple of years, you decide to become head of CIA anyway. How then do you beat the previous allegations suggesting that you were/are a spy?
Maybe Troytech is suggesting a lil behind the scene relationship between Satoshi and Theymos that triggered that level of trust. But if anyone considers that it wasn't directed from Satoshi to theymos, you'll understand that there could be alot of dots to connect or there could just be only one dot to connect.
To me, there's no point trying to uncover that mystery of the administration of the forum, just like it is futile trying to uncover Satoshi. Everything is fine and theymos has been great over the years, maybe we should just be content with that.
