For the first time in can't remember how long (early in the history of this thread that's for sure), I exercised moderator power and deleted a post by "bagholder" (a newbie sock puppet, which is already a warning sign) that was one part trolling and one part promoting BBR.

I don't care if you are negative on Monero, or like another coin better, but I'm not interested in the trolling style of posting meme pictures and such on this thread. Nor obvious sock puppets.

Say what you want to say in a courteous respectful tone, even if you disagree, or say it elsewhere.

They did start with trolling for 80% of the space the post took up .. then made the 'rational' point, which easily could have been a troll point. Hard to tell when your post is 80% spiteful troll at least.

Even if they did find a reason to stuff themself up a sock .. only 4-5 lines there even made sense at all .. the rest was just kinda lame. Admittedly though, I did chuckle for a second or two at at least one line.

I'd agree that the post was prime for deletion.

If the author came back and restated the last couple of lines .. then that would have been almost worthy of commenting on.

I agree, that post was obvious trolling, coming from a ex troll Cpt himself.

Also, the recent seizure of underground markets, primarily Silk Road 2, and the arrest of several vendors using those markets, should increase adoption with anonymity coins i.e Monero.
