you might as well revel in how upset you are and really give me what for instead of pretending all your posts on that page never happened. you already did your "you dont even own bitcoins so you should just go away! " post but how i think you can take it even further

i like how you didnt say you werent a professional trader
and you also left an open implication that people who only buy and sell 1 kind of cryptocoin arent real traders

quote:

look trading is a real job for people who do research into real things that usually arent pyramid scams. my advice pertains to not adding definitions to or stretching usage of words (in this case beyond realistic usage) because that is cultish behavior. like at ground zero when scientologists were fuming at other aid tents because "they have no tech" which sounds like a reasonable statement to them but red flags them as crazy to everyone who hasnt drank the kool aid theyve partaken of. since you occasionally try to make actual arguments im merely trying to help you avoid inadvertently sounding ridiculous by using a term that makes you seem to have an unrealistic sense of the stature of buying and selling bitcoin. in repeatedly reaffirming your status as a "trader" before understanding why i put forth this advice youve sort of just made it worse

tl;dr: dont frontload the crazy in your arguments when youre still trying to convince people of your thing. save that for after youve won them over

i never told you to go away

gary's how come you're pissanting around in another thread about poo poo you don't own, know anything about, or have anything to do with

no i didn't, i thought that pointing that out would have been unnecessarily pedantic because of how obvious it is

lol at this guy who thinks that because i said i trade cryptos it means that i'm claiming to be a professional trader

when i talk about being a runner, clearly i mean that i'm a professional runner on Team USA, not that i sometimes run amateur races as a hobby

I think everybody who has strong opinion on the internet coin, needs to stop having strong opinions about it, as it is a retarded and silly phenomenon and symptom of late stage capitalism.

so many angry tears in your posts last page. a call to not imagine yourself as high-power traders was apparently an ego hit to people who think theyre pioneering the currency of the future
you said you were a trader and a runner but not a professional runner. you unnecessarily explicitly added that to the runner description which presents an implication to what it was compared to

Uranium 235 posted:

idk man the way you consistently interpret every other person's statements in the most extreme way possible makes me think you're really revved up about this and just projecting that onto others. otherwise i can't explain how hysterical you're getting

do i have to explain analogies to you? lol

If you are day trading and you have no competitive advantage over anyone else in the market you're just waiting to get your face ripped off imo but if you're not doing it with your full portfolio then whatever.

i've never once considered myself to be a "professional trader" and i've never postured myself to be anyone more than someone who got lucky.

gary oldsman's diary have you tried just making free money? it's hella easy.

gary oldmans diary posted:

oh yeah extreme. i described how his posts fit certain specific criteria of being aggressive whiney snipe posts not engaging in any conversation i was already engaged in which is consistently something people do when theyre upset and have nothing really to argue with. perhaps if thats not the case maybe he would have simply described how it isnt

please dont pretend its far-reaching to think there might be a social dynamic to conversation rather than a pure cut and dry debate just because his posts come across a little desperately angry

there's that classic gary oldmans diary hysteria again

it's an analogy

calling myself a runner doesn't mean i'm calling myself a professional runner, just like calling myself a trader doesn't mean i'm calling myself a professional trader

do you understand how implicit an exploits work in comparisons? after stating that you trade and are therefor a trader and run and are therefor a runner you added that you werent a professional runner which was an out of place and superfluous statement except as a contrasting element. are you saying you wouldnt meet the definition of a professional trader?

please give up on understanding analogies vs metaphors. its beyond you

gary oldmans diary posted:

you explicitly added that you werent a professional runner which you here agree was a strangely out of place statement as no one would assume that about you. this it implies a contrasting element to your previous comparison
again do you not think you fit the definition of a professional trader?

is any trader a professional trader as long as they made money from it?
