I wrote this before @PaulSnow posted his questions. Nevertheless I'll send this to close some doors for stupid ego-strategies.
@Adam: I know your suggestion is with good intentions, and totally understandable. But the problem I'm pretty sure of is: It's already proven that this is not about facts. @Brighton36 never was able to discuss his own points. This thread is in fact not about Factom and facts. It's about two guys who are confronted with their own dishonesty. And we see every silly ego-strategy and this won't end with one post of @PaulSnow asking relevant questions and Chris replies or not. He will reply, but he will do it the same way he started the thread and the same way he wrote his posts. I've asked some questions in my last post:
- Please quote where do they speak of a contract.
- You say it’s "unequivocal"… you should be able to show what exactly is unequivocal.
- Please tell me, what’s wrong about fundraising.
- Please tell me, what’s wrong if a team says what they’re doing?
- Please tell me, what’s wrong with the article?
And… let’s try something new:
- Please be precise
- Please reply on every(!) question
- Please use quotes to underline your claims!
He can't do that, because it's impossible to answer that questions, being precise, quoting sources, and implicate something shady at the same time. Take a look at this post of him:
https://letstalkbitcoin.com/forum/post/lets-talk-about-factoms-repeated-lies-and-mistakes-per-cryptonaughts-request?page=8#post-139820
...and it's obvious what I want to say.
And earlier (but today) he said:
- „there were two more fundraises thereafter during which Factom still advertised that contract as having been secured on its own website.“
Now he combines his admittion that he can't find anything with "contract" with new accusations and attacks. It's about defending his ego, and that was the reason right from the beginning. It's visible everywhere, and he will go on with that. It's the same with @Junseth. His newest attempt is irony combined with personal attacks... it's desperation because all of their dishonesty is now obvious.
But they won't ever admit that. It's easy to remove dishonest masks... that was done on page one or at least after Paul Snows corrections. But it's impossible to stop their attacks which they just do to defend their hurting egos. They already have lost much credibility. Now it's just about "not-admitting-that", so they have to move on.
The problem now is: It's not a lot of work for @PaulSnow to ask questions. He did that several times without getting answer. The problem is to ask questions in a way that it's impossible for Chris to "beat about the bush" (hope that's right? - talking around the facts and being precise).
What I expect is, that Paul Snows questions will be a new start for some rounds. He will ask precise and they'll reply with implications and talking around in combination with accusations and so on. That's why my suggestion was that @Brighton36 should make this thread more transparent, edit his first post and give a link to Paul Snows corrections. And sure, I knew that he wouldn't want that. I wanted to record exactly that. It's pretty revealing when it comes to the question for what he stands for - and what he fears.
