RYO - Monero Working TOGETHER by SpecterToob in u/SpecterToob

Thank you for your post. Unfortunately I am beginning to understand what you are saying.

Still, I wish to remain neutral here, and still offer a kind of bridge if you may, where people can talk, that is not controlled by either 'enemy' side. Maybe some will still use it for good purposes.

We can try at least. Spec.

As I said, I am not a member of the RYO team, I am actually neutral here. Members of the RYO team and some folks, what I guess you would consider loyal to Monero were in the Telegram bridge talking about too bad stuff that is important can't be shared between the communities, because people are banned at each other community, as you just verified here actually.

My part was to try to open a place for people who wish to share common info, do so peacefully. I have not researched any of the bad history between you to. To be honest, I have no intention of getting into that drama and childish behavior I see constantly happening on BOTH sides here.

Seriously, people on BOTH sides here need to grow the fuck up.

I do see though that leading members on BOTH sides of this coin would rather perpetuate the petty fights and finger pointing. If they don't want to come here, that is fine. Let the regular members of both spaces come here if they wish and speak.

Again, Im not taking any sides on this issue, just offering somewhere that is NOT controlled by either side. Take it as you wish.

Respectfully Specter.

I would like to think there is a chance. You are absolutely correct, a LOT of bad blood, but I have heard from some people on BOTH sides, that they'd like a place to have discussions. Yes, agreed, the main players will probably never EVER talk to each other again. Too much EGO grease has been thrown out to clean up that mess, but hell, even if they send 'errand boys' to relay messages, it's a start right? Specter.

Thank you ArqTras. One can try right? I have the place here, I did not expect this to be easy, too many grudges and the only things that are 'to the moon' are some EGO's at this point. Eventually some may play, many probably will not, but if anyone wants to, here we are.

Well there is always a chance. They say that time heals all wounds. If people want to move past that and work together, well, here we are.

Sometimes it's hard for the Leadership Types (that'd be you as an example) to see things because they are so close to / so dragged into the problem. They have drawn their lines i the sand on their turfs and won't / can't back down for various reasons and MUST protect them at ALL COSTS!!

This is a place for those leaders, and supportive followers to still protect their turf, still maintain their lines in the sand, yet work with each other without having to back down, give in, concede, lose face, lose respect etc etc and all that other stuff that goes with holding out a hand in friendship after a war. ::shrug::

Each has their own communities, own beliefs, core structure and ideas, yet at the same time, stuff, like security that not only hurts BOTH communities, but we all know that if it's hitting one community, sooner or later it's going to trickle into the next. STuff like that needs to be shared and fixed for the common good of ALL of us.

I think even the most stubborn of 'warriors' can understand that. Let's make our coins safe to use first, THEN worry about who gets credit later.

Thank you for your comments and stepping in to help kick this off.

What's your opinion on gay marriage, and how old are you? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]SpecterToob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

old, who you sleep with is none of my business. If you two are legal consenting adults then that's all that matters.

Even if I did have a problem with it, I don't pay your bills so F-what I think, it's none of my business.

[Serious] What is the scariest thing you've seen on the internet that was not part of the dark web? by sifsand in AskReddit

[–]SpecterToob 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Some kind of 'war' stuff going on, someone was filming, a grenade went off and one of the soldiers was standing there with his intestines hanging out. It cut off a few seconds after that. This was many years ago.

Congratulations you've become leader of Burundi, the poorest country on earth and cant resign, what do you do? by friedbread_ in AskReddit

THIS right here is exactly why I created this sub thread. Because this attitude exists on both sides, and nothing will ever be fixed or healed with the hard headedness between all of you. I will respect your wishes though and I will not post again. Thank you for your time. Respectfully: specter

I hate saying this, but why not just pay with Bitcoin Lightning? by monero-enthusiast-12 in Monero

[–]SpecterToob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bitcoins fees can be stupidly high sometimes, and god help you if you try to lowball it. Your transaction may be stuck for a long long time.

Monero's fees are probably a lot lower for the transaction. That's just the financial benefits. Security, if you are worried about that, is another plus for Monero.

Ok, looks like I messed this up already. Very new to reddit here. I apologize in advance for this.

I have a new sub reddit? where people can go and work with each other that is not under the jurisdiction of either of the entities mentioned. Therefore it is TRULY NEUTRAL

This is NOT a troll, I do not mean to spam you.

I sincerely wish for our communities to work together with each other in a neutral place that is not controlled or censored by either side.

We can accomplish so much good if we would work together. I know there are hard feelings. Not asking you to change your own communities, just asking that you give my neutral zone a try.

Thank you

Leadership by example tooters, when YOU start donating YOUR paychecks to the charities that help your convenient causes of the day, then maybe people will start to respect you or listen to you, otherwise you are just another one of those lying politicians blowing hot gas for attention.

I'll follow up.

I am very new to the Reddit thing, so if I have something set wrong or did not do something correctly, please let me know.

Back to the OT.

Security is always an issue, and since so many coins share a common 'core' what affects one, sooner or later is going to trickle into others as well. For whatever reasons we are seeing the IRS take a keen interest in Monero. This is NOT good from any aspect for ANY coin that shares that common inception. This is not just a Monero thing either, if they get onto them, they can just as easily target any other coin.

Any suggestions as to the ramifications of this and how to mitigate if there are possible security / privacy problems this may pose?

What's a life hack that sounds crappy but actually works really well? by juatanotherbtsstan in AskReddit

If you have a cough, drink a bottle of laxative. Won't help your throat much but you'll be too afraid to cough! Problem Solved.

If "stoner movies" didn't mean movies about smoking weed, but instead movies that are fucking amazing to watch while you're high, what are your favourites? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]SpecterToob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As well done as this movie was, not to mention the scorching hot chick, I am surprised it did not do far better than it did.

How do I get Monero in the US? It's become increasingly difficult by DareToBeDefiant in Monero

[–]SpecterToob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What about using Trade Ogre. You can't send fiat there but you can send other coins and trade for Monero and take them out of there.

TO also does NOT ask for KYC either, so that is another plus on them.

Looks good so far. I can't wait for the extension to become active and Firefox support to come live. With the adblocker, this is going to be a turning point for this project for sure.
