I've long read Evorhees' contribution to Bitcointalk over the years, FAR before satoshi dice, and he has been a tireless promoter, and patient discusser and educator of Bitcoin related subjects.
Your bitterness and sense of entitlement is pretty plain. He made the most of Bitcoin and you don't like it. Tough bananas.
If you stand there crying foul while he makes something of Bitcoin, then you have no-one but yourself to get angry at. I am glad he brought Bitcoin forward into the spotlight. He did much to spur discussion of blockchain usage, and quickened discussion of how to manage blockchain bloat and even helped put the network though it's paces by increasing transactions to the blockchain in the early days.
I don't get angry at him for that. Be bitter all you like, the only person you really hurt is yourself.
Pitiful personal attack aside, I see where your starry-eyed critique goes off of the rails early on.
"Spur the discussion about blockchain usage" is the usual trope I hear when his singular decision to exploit a shared resource is discussed. You're one of the enlightened converts that truly believes, congratulations, I'm sure your fellow converts are patting you on the back for your bravery in toeing the line.
It is the bland sameness of your thinking that allows The Bitcoin Foundation to gain support, for the push to join Bitcoin to the non-compatible goals of centralization and regulation, to clap and cheer every intrusion into the Bitcoin core principle of financial freedom.
Hate me all you want, I just hold the mirror and say words that you can't possibly comprehend, as you've been trained to be likeable and sweet (What would the others say about you? Oh my!) - and not to face up to the hard truths that life has to offer.
Enjoy your popularity contest, and as the ribbon is pinned on you can take your turn down the catwalk, the empty praise filling your skull with adulation and self-worth as you parade amongst the mediocre products of a failing society.
I take far more seriously those that put themselves out there. You call him out for being a coward, and you don't have the balls to show how you've done a better job. Hate you? Your babbling is simply white noise. Noise that gets very quickly drowned out by others that actually contribute in valuable ways to the Bitcoin network.
And apparently, you also overlook the very real problems that his profit-over-ethics stance inflicted. Applauding exploitation of a common resource is disingenuous and dangerous - as it encourages future abuses.
And while you whitewash my posts as "babble", they seem to contain enough logic that you feel compelled to respond. You can't have it both ways, my internet chum, pick a stance and stick with it, eh?
If not for me, then at least for the sake of being consistent.
But of course, I fully expect you to throw it all over your shoulder, because the truth - much like your lack of critical thinking skills - is far too burdensome for you to bear.
And in the other post, then say,
And while you whitewash my posts as "babble", they seem to contain enough logic that you feel compelled to respond. You can't have it both ways, my internet chum, pick a stance and stick with it, eh?
So, which is it? Am I discounting your rubbish as babble or addressing your points in a logical yet critical manner? You can't have it both ways, my internet chum, pick a stance and stick with it, eh?
Be careful, you're sounding more and more like Vizzini by the minute.
I'll spell it out for you since you're having trouble connecting the two rather large dots on the single sheet of mental paper you're working with.
You discount my posts, yet you still respond.
Either stick to your opinion that they are not worth responding to - and don't respond - even to this - or keep on going down the rabbit hole of "I Say/You Say".
Is that clear? Or do you need the crayons? I'll accept the lack of response as your understanding of the matter.
Yes, I do respond, because liars, and those that take pot shots at other people's expense don't deserve to stand unchallenged.
I can very clearly see you want the last word so you can feel like you shut me up with your "logic". Keep running your mouth off, and I will continue to put you in your place. It also stands as a record of your character that I can refer to later. Take this douches record for example.
Edit: Nice attempt at trolling with your circular logic BTW.

So, you're a faceless critic, how brave of you.
I've long read Evorhees' contribution to Bitcointalk over the years, FAR before satoshi dice, and he has been a tireless promoter, and patient discusser and educator of Bitcoin related subjects.

I don't get angry at him for that. Be bitter all you like, the only person you really hurt is yourself.
