Why this thread is doomed to fail.

1. Curious Misspellings

Quote from: JohnyBigs on December 15, 2013, 06:54:11 PM

Bitcoin can barley handle a few hundred thousand transactions a day, what happens if the transactions grow to 10 Million, 50 Million, 100 Million which are all still relativity small transaction numbers compared to the 6 Billion people in the world. It simply can't handle it.

Secondly, it can barley handle 100k transactions in a day without bogging down. Imagine if it's doing fiat numbers for transactions, Bitcoin would destroy itself.

2. Random Capitalization

JohnyBigs:

"Yes let's hear the Credit Cards take 180 day confirms."
"Should I play some Board Games?"
"... will point out Hard Drives will keep up!!!"

MikeyVeez:

"The Government"
"And no Banks at first"
"...they are still centralized by Oracles of the world."

3. Phrasing Choices

JohnyBigs:

"...because of reason #1."

MikeyVeez:

"Reason #1 is already coming into fruitition..."

4. Username

Note the similarities between the usernames JohnyBigs and MikeyVeez (syllable count, "type" of name, etc.)

Also, the usernames were created within days of one another, and both reside in the same time zone.

5. Anger Management

The similarities of the overall writing style and tone between the two users are exceedingly clear. No direct quotes are even necessary, just choose 1 post from each and observe the anger.

5. Conclusion

JohnyBigs = MikeyVeez = troll.

I'm sure some of us (myself included) are wondering how you got to be this way. It takes quite a lot of unmanaged emotion to claim that "digital currency in general has a sinister purpose." Were you recently burned by a bitcoin transaction? Did you have some coins on Mt. Gox?

Or perhaps the wound is deeper? Recent breakup with a significant other? Is your family life doing alright?

It takes a lot of anger, at both yourself and at others, to be the way you are. I wish you the best.
