http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/2751e8/psa_dont_fall_for_darkcoins_deceiving_marketing 16 comments from you complaining about Darkcoin. Do you want those to be quoted here? (/user/fluffyponyza)

You're being disingenuous. That was a discussion on /r/bitcoin, and my comments did not "complain" about Darkcoin. Don't conflate a technical debate with complaining. I pointed out technical deficiencies. I have done the same for Monero, and I have vocally pointed out Bitcoin's flaws.

You are trolling every Darkcoin and Boolberry mentions on Coindesk and everywhere else too.

This is utter nonsense. I made 1 comment on Coindesk 2 months ago pointing out that Darksend's closed-source release means that there are no checks-and-balances for the architecture and the code. Every other comment has been explaining CryptoNote or pointing out the failure that is MaidSafe. I'm completely entitled to opinions, you're not obligated to agree with them.

Your last Monero commit was copying Zoidberg's tx_pool handling and submitting it as a pull request on Monero, over a month ago https://github.com/monero-project/bitmonero/pull/41

What's your point? A large portion of my immediate work is architectural in nature, which would not equate to direct commits.

Try to represent Monero with more dignity. As it stands right now, you are a sore thumb sticking out everywhere.

If I wasn't passionate about my opinions, and I didn't express my opinions, there would never be active debate and discussion. I'd also never have my errors pointed out (factual errors, not differences of opinion) and would not be able to correct my thinking where I have made a misstep in judgement or believe something based on an incorrect premise. The value in expressing my opinions and thereby improving my knowledge through rigorous debate is immeasurable. If you disagree with me on something, feel free to engage me on it.
