It actually said ‘they found somebody they think is the bitcoin creator’. They cannot prove it is him. Bearing in mind there are many Satoshi Nakomoto in this world - what they did posting all about this guy and showing his house, his image, and where he lives (not to mention the fact they say he has $400 million in BTC) is deplorable. I would urge you not to spread this link for the sake of an innocent guys privacy, and his life being put at risk as a result of an idiotic reporter

~~ Xodianbarr ~~

It’s been a crazy few months for all coins including BTC, the reason I posted the link and quote was because at the time I personally thought the FTC community was the best and most dedicated and certainly not a failure… and I still do.

Don’t worry about it buddy. I don’t bear a grudge - I just don’t want decent people thinking ill of me. It is good that you are supportive towards your community - that is an admirable trait.

Whoops I’m always causing trouble me!

The only issue I have with your reply to me in your thread is you say all 3 coins were in the shitter after UNOCS but in your interview you seem to point towards PXC and FTC’s troubles yet WDC have improved dramatically!

I personally hope all 3 coins do well!

Yes, at that time (When Scharmbeck was revealed) PXC was pretty much dead in the water and FTC’s price was declining steeply. WDC at that time had improved from a low price of 0.000026 up to 0.00018 (at it’s peak) while FTC had dropped from 0.00110 to 0.00065ish and was showing no signs of improvement. Of course things are pretty different now ;) Worldcoin is in decline and Feathercoin is steadily improving!

Reminds me of the FUD I came across here from the worldcoin member necrodiety.

http://worldcoinforum.org/topic/687-thoughts-on-ftc-dgc-and-gld/

I like Worldcoin and that type of FUD is bad for all coins.

Thanks Tony ;)

Yes, this is exactly why I am here trying to clear up what is a misunderstanding. My previous post gave a response to all the questions raised in this topic regarding the Interview and my inflammatory question. FUD is a strong word though - has it yet recovered to the price it was during UNOCS?

Please, all are reminded to remain civil.

+1 to that.

I’ll stand right beside you Calem, yay!

You should not get offended. This is the internet. Discussion false or true statements should fix any shady views, so that’s what is happening right now. IMO the other posts were kind of mud throwing which you, obviously now, did not want to do.

I don’t mean to sound rude, but what’s the thing you want to happen now?

Open discussion regarding the replies I made to the original post. NOthing more.

I’m not sure if any hard feelings are going away by all these new topic’s or will create even more hatred. I was not around during the WDC battle if I may call it that way, but heaving read this all I’m not sure this is saving your reputation by bringing this up again (like Bush said).

I liked the answer you gave on mirrax’ question - I prefer you having here sharing knowledge instead of any previous mud throwing (whether intentional or not).

I think in this you are wrong. See from my perspective there is no ill feeling towards Feathercoin from Worldcoin nor myself. TBH, most discussion centres around DOGE atm. With regard to your comment about my mirrax response - that is what I am happy to do - set the record straight. I do not wish for people to have a misinformed opinion of me.

Well worthy debate serves to better us all. I will remove the ‘offending question’ asked by myself in Worldcoin forum for no better reason that it was a bad question to ask and off topic. I am very happy to quell any rumours associated with me and the animosity it is believed I have toward Feathercoin. I would rather see communities work together, not against one another. I was actually quite shocked to see that some people held me in low regard here.

We were meant to throw opinions, so if one shouts one out, one should be able to catch it. I don’t see why retracting is needed here. He gave his opinion on the Feathercoin in his interview and some replied on it with their thoughts on Xodianbarr himself.

Entirely why I am having this discussion in the first place.

What should be up for discussion / debate, is maybe how the interview was conducted. But once again. I see no wrong doing by either party.

Opinion is not against forum rules. Neither the ftc forum, nor Xodianbarr, have broken what I consider forum rules.

How about this.

If Xodianbarr retracts his interview, we will retract all threads regarding it.

Let’s all just forget about it. This is making everyone look bad.

Thoughts people?

Were this interview conducted here I would be entirely in agreement, as it stands I there is only one question asked by myself which is objectionable. I actually would be happy to remove that question for no better reason than it was off topic and unnecessary. But not the interview. The interview (as I’m sure you can appreciate) was not about Feathercoin or Worldcoin, it was about Koolio’s business. As for the rules that I earlier commented on. I should rather have said your ‘code of conduct’. Below is the rule that I feel has been breached:

3. Trolling, Attacks and Flaming: These are always forbidden.
-Trolling is posting in a way that provokes emotional responses.
-Attacks and derogatory terms of any kind are not welcome. This includes references to other Crypto Currencies and those who support them.
-Flames are messages that personally attack or call any people names or otherwise harass. These, along with any generally condescending posts will be edited or removed at the moderators discretion.

I believe that my actions may have caused the moderators to believe I was in breach of this section:

-If a thread is flame-bait (appears to be intended to start an argument or is likely to cause an argument rather than enhance discussion, as in trolling), it will be locked or removed without notice. Individual flame-bait comments in a post may be deleted or edited at the moderators’ discretion.

I can assure it is not my intent to cause a rift. This I feel is nothing to do with Worldcoin. It is my defending myself against what I see as an attack on me as a person.

To anyone who is wondering what it was that feathercoiner’s had said, 4 months ago, to upset Xodianbarr, and start this chain of grief and thread locking here on the forum, it is this thread, of which, he is asking us to delete. -> https://forum.feathercoin.com/index.php?/topic/3369-intesting-quote-from-an-interview/

The thread was in response to this interview xodianbarr did with Koolio. -> http://worldcoinforum.org/topic/436-koolio-talks-about-his-work-with-scrypt-fpgas/

Well, either delete or discuss. I have no shame about the past, but my reputation is important enough to me that I defend it. I thank you for giving this due consideration Calem.

~~ Xodianbarr ~~

So Xodianbarr, as you are active WDC member, can you please share your point of view on current WDC situation? I mean end of Worldcoinfoundation and creation of Commite, looks very strange to me.

WDC is in turmoil right now. It all comes down to the failure of Scharmbeck, which many view as being wholly like UNOCs v2. The foundation board worked for the foundation and three members decided to create Scharmbeck. Against my advice - I might add. I asserted that it would prove a conflict of interests and be damaging to Worldcoin as a whole if it went wrong - which is exactly what happened. I quit working for them at that time because of this.

The commitee

Upon discovering the terrible affect Scharmbeck was having on Worldcoin and being privvy to the inner workings of Worldcoin Foundation led me to act upon my feelings that the relationship had to end. In this regard i proposed to the committee that they stand down from the board. They each in turn agreed. The problem then was the fact that Worldcoin Foundation was actually owned as a business entity by one of the board members. This presented a significant problem because of potential legal issues down the line.

For that reason a meeting was held including founding members of Worldcoin (the guys some people will know here), one of the ex board members, and myself. After much discussion it was decided that the foundation could not be used and a new committee had to be formed. I approached several long standing members of the Worldcoin community who have shown support to Worldcoin throughout all the problems and asked them to consider forming a new committee. I am happy to say they agreed. Having members who have a positive interest in improving Worldcoin can only be seen as a good thing. The committees primary role is to oversee the creation of a new organisation that cannot be ‘owned’ by one particular person and is subject to strict rules to ensure that a positive objective is maintained.

My situation with regard to this is a complicated one. Although I formed part of the committee I have recently stepped down (to be honest my only aim was to ensure things start going in the right direction). I remain an influential member of the community there only.

~~ Xodianbarr ~~

I’m sorry that this may upset you but I am not going to remove content from this forum. People got upset by what you said and talked about it here. Looking around at crypto coin forums in general you often see a fair bit of ‘other’ coin bashing and we try to make sure this sort of thing is kept to a minimum and generally does not happen. The only reason it happened here is because you took the time to bash Feathercoin in the first place.

Saying Feathercoin is dead is your opinion but please do not get upset when others disagree with you.

As far as I can tell you are in the UK, we are a UK based coin. We have meetups once a month in a pub in Oxford. Not sure if that is a long trek for you but you are welcome to come along.

Yes it is not dead. I meant it metaphorically as that is how it appeared from the outside in. Much like LTC, NMC, SC (which actually is dead), and TRC appear.

I apologise if you take offense to that. More of a display of how i felt about the activity here at that time than anything else.

I have nothing against Feathercoin. Nor am I all in with Worldcoin. The flamethread about me was based on an article I did with Koolio in which I asked him (once during the whole article) about his views on UNOCs and Worldcoins success Vs FTC and PXCs’ demise. Yes, I referred to FTC and PXC as failed coins, because at that time they were failing. The price of FTC had more than halved and there was no community presence felt outside this forum. In retrospect it was an inappropriate thing to ask Koolio because it beared no relation on the topic. I actually was just curious as to his opinion. It was not an attempt to attack Feathercoin, god knows I do that enough about Worldcoin - it’s nothing personal. Ok so regarding my comments in ‘the trollbox’. I read the post you just added above and actually didn’t find great reference to my past views regarding Feathercoin. I think you ought to look at mcxnow’s trollbox - that gives you a much more accurate picture of my thoughts.

Bear in mind though that:

1. It’s a trollbox. Lots of fud, lots of abuse, lots of tittle tattle.

2. I have been much more harsh on LTC. As you may discover - and no, I don’t hate LTC, nor feel any ill will to them either. I am disappointed in them though. They appear to have lost all focus.

The great exception I took from my reading of the flamethread was one particular comment that suggested I was lying about the whole interview with Koolio. Nobody here corrected it, yet everyone was invited. One thing I am not - is a liar.

~~ Xodianbarr ~~

If somebody wants to discuss something I have in the past said in a constructive manner - I am more than happy to do so.

No bud, I am not intent on causing trouble between worldcoin and feathercoin. I am intent on defending my name. It kind of matters to me.

Well, I tried to be polite and constructive in my reply thread despite unfair assumptions, and lies being pointed at me. I was told ‘to stop trying to start a flame war’. Generally when somebody is responding politely and constructively that does not result in a ‘Flame War’. Ok, so I took this to PM and requested that the offensive article be removed before I was forced to retaliate to these accusations and defamatory comments all about me. After writing a half hour message pointing out that I have no ill feeling towards Feathercoin, this community or any other coin I discovered I was blocked.

Xodianbarr PM to Bushstar:

You made the effort to post on the thread telling everyone how i was ‘starting a flame war’, and yet it was your forum who allowed a flame topic to be created all about me and your team thought it was ok to leave it there. If you have a problem with what I say on Worldcoin forum (not your forum i might add) then of course you are entitled to it. At least do me the courtesy of challenging my assertion constructively and with maturity. So far you have just shown that you deem it acceptable for your users to cast aspertions against my good name without rebuke. I do not take kindly to being called a liar, or being accused of wrongfully attacking your coin. Of course you don’t know me all that well so I will forgive you for not realising that I am often just as damning if not more against Worldcoin when I feel things are being dealt with badly. It comes from being honest. Did i think your coin at that time was failing? Yes i did. Do I have evidence to back that up. You know I do. The price still has not recovered after all this time. If you refuse me the right to speak, or at least do not remove that topic I shall make my voice heard in other places. If I am forced to do that, I will not be nearly so polite.

Have you heard the expression about someone who cannot see the wood for the trees?

Anyway, I have looked you up and the sort of thing that you have been saying about Feathercoin on the trollbox archive and considering what I have found I am not going to engage you any more. Please go pick your arguments elsewhere and remember that you represent Worldcoin so please do try to behave in an appropriate way.

In response I am not going to bother wasting my time writing another lengthy reply stating the fact that a troll box is called such for a reason, I did not single out FTC, my comments were based on the climate at the time and were entirely accurate if not a little over harsh, nor the fact that actually I do not represent Worldcoin officially and I did try to behave appropriately and yet was responded to with inappropriate action. Not unlike the assured locking this topic will receive meaning people cannot reply other than the power hungry admistrator discussed in the above post.

I’ll just take it to somewhere a bit more public where he has no control and force him to discuss it with a bit more maturity.

EDIT *** As Bushstar has been good enough to keep the topic open I will keep all my comments concerning this in this forum alone. I am not here looking for trouble ***

~~ Xodianbarr ~~

Bushstar. How exactly would you feel if you saw an active thread about you in Worldcoin forum?

Well this isn’t about the two coins it’s about my reputation Bushstar. When i find a publically searchable thread about me on the internet that not only is insulting and containing lies you expect I should just ignore the fact that they are still publically available in your forum? You have done enough to damage the relations between Worldcoin and Feathercoin right now I assure you. I expect you to make a formal apology to me for ‘dragging up what is actually readable in your forum’, then censoring my right to a voice. If you don’t like contentious debate then you should not allow controversial discussion in the first place. But then I guess you only censor things that suit you.

Please remove your insulting thread at the risk of further damaging your coins reputation. What you call history is merely 4 months ago.

~~ Xodianbarr ~~

I was doing as search against my nickname (as I do from time to time) and much to my surprise I found this:

https://forum.feathercoin.com/index.php?/topic/3369-intesting-quote-from-an-interview/?hl=xodianbarr

I was quite shocked to discover your indiscriminate bashing of me and my motives so let me put a few things straight. First, if you think it’s acceptable to attack myself as a Worldcoin member then you guys should be ashamed of yourself. Were I to find a similar such thread in Worldcoin forum I would make sure it was dealt with straight away - I find your behaviour as quite unnacceptable. If any of you bothered to approach me you will discover that I am not ego driven like you seem to think I am, nor I make up stories or lie.

So lets put some of your fabulous assertions to rest…

Tony:

:o :o :o
Me: ‘Yes, Worldcoin was partnered with FTC and PXC with the UNOCS bridge project.’
TheKoolio: ‘I am aware.’
Me: ‘When it collapsed FTC and PXC both failed. Since then, Worldcoin has improved dramatically. ’

**Reply: **I would like to point out that time that the UNOCs disaster caused considerable damage to all three coins. Worldcoin at that time was virtually dead in IRC and the forum. Similarly, FTC dumped from around 0.00101 to 0.00065 ish. Also your community was similar to ours. At the time of my interview with Coolio your community were not seen to be publically active and the price certainly did not reflect any improvement - rather it just showed a steady decline. This is a fact and was the sole reasoning behind my question.

**spynappels: **Seriously? FTC and PXC both failed?

Especially for FTC, define failed?

**Reply:******I believe I answered your question above.

**Magic8Ball: **I’ll just ignore your comment considering I have never held a large amount of Worldcoin. Even after all these months my exact total of crypto coins comes to 1.32 BTC.

Ghostlander:

Xodianbarr is known for his FTC insults at the MCX troll box. I don’t care as long as he keeps it personal, but this interview pretends to be official as it has been posted on the official WDC forum where he is one of the admins. The other admins haven’t objected in any way what means they’re all right with it. I see Koolio’s answers very tolerant though.

**Reply: **Ghostlander I have numerous complaints concerning your remarks. 1. I slammed many coins on MCXNow - i certainly didnt single out FTC. There is a reason it is called the ‘troll box’. As I have previously stated - FTC at that time wasn’t going anywhere. I would also raise the point that ‘it still isn’t’. I would agree that at the moment neither is Worldcoin. You state that i ‘pretend’ it’s official. Well in answer to that all i can say is that it was advertised in advance of the actual meeting both on numerous exchanges and within the Worldcoin forum. Users were invited to participate in the discussion and it was not private. Sounds official enough to me. As for your assertion that i ‘pretended’ it. That is akin to calling me a liar and I do not appreciate that one bit. One thing I am not is a liar. Presumably you did approach Koolio and verify your fact ‘before’ sullying my reputation? Don’t worry I already know the answer. I even have the correspondence between myself and Koolio to back it up. You have only to ask…

mnstrcck:

Meh, he was framing the questions with a clear bias - but Koolio kinda just dodged taking the bait.

He’s definitely not a good interviewer.
Oh well, we carry on.

**Reply: **Mnstruck what was I framing with bias exactly? Please explain. If you’re referring to my earlier question - You’ll find the answer written above.

svennand:

he kinda hurt himself on that one.

dont think koolio appriciated how wdc did that interview in regards to that question
never shit where you eat? seems alot of coins do that. people are more busy with hurting other coins than to develop/evolve their own.
imo he missed the opportunity to get some good questions@koolio.

kinda nice though to know that even when he is interviewing the legend koolio he cant stop thinking of us :D

**Reply: **I actually have no argument with what you said Svennand. I think it is a fair comment in the main. It was not an attempt to hurt your coin nor PXC btw, I was just stating a fact as I saw. In retrospect it was a bad question, but bearing in mind it is the very first interview I had ever hosted, and I was expecting much more participation from the channel - I don’t think I did all that bad. All these comments so far surround one question only.

aysyr:

It’s just how xodianbarr is, I see him everywhere just trying to put WDC on a pedestal so it’s no surprise to me.

I agree with ghostlander though, a public face of a community shouldn’t be allowed to have his ego deride others, falsely or otherwise. In this case, he’s slyly trying to get a slip of the tongue from koolio to discredit Feathercoin. While I like WDC, I can’t say the same about some of its members.

Reply: Me putting Worldcoin on a pedestal? You sound jealous. Of course I did I was working for them doing PR. That was my job… How was my ego deriding anybody? Explain? I do not remember deriding anything or anybody - only stating fact. I was trying to discredit Feathercoin? Are you serious? Why would I want to do that, it serves no benefit to me OR Worldcoin to do that. I actually have a track record of working WITH other coins, and trying to create a community of commmunities. I assure the purpose of my aim was to learn when Scrypt FPGA’s were coming, and to obviously do some promotion for Worldcoin. I most certainly wasn’t trying to discredit anything.

Ghostlander:

WDC 51% attacked, but is now fixed thanks to Real Solid.

WDC has got its 1st big 51% attack with double spending yesterday. Not a big deal for FTC as we have had quite a few of these. What amuses me is that their development team (or whatever) had to ask RS to fix it up in the old way by setting up checkpoints and rolling up a client update to fork the block chain before the attack. No doubt many miners will be happy of losing their coins mined.

WDC devs, welcome to the real world. You wanted to play ball with big boys, so you have it.

Reply:

That’s no secret. I even stated it officially. Seems like it’s you who is aiming to do a little stirring here. I see you failed to make mention of the fact that not only did we recover very well and very quickly (aside of RS’s help), we also didn’t lose value. If you’re going to just stir trouble at least be fair in your attack.

erk:

WDC has had a boost in popularity recently you can see it in the Cryptsy and mcxNOW volumes. Something to do with this Scharmbeck float

http://worldcoinforu…shares-for-wdc/

I think you guys should quit watching Worldcoin and concentrate on your own. You don’t find FTC drama at Worldcoin, why is Worldcoin drama here? For anyone who doesn’t know and who is actually interested - Scharmbeck is something that caused me to quit working for Worldcoin. It has since disastrously failed and is considered rather in the same vein as was UNOCs.

To summarise on your comments:

No I don’t hate FTC. I actually rate it as one of the top coins, certainly better than many others that enjoy more popularity these days. But I will say your public presence does suck. I am not trying to attack you, nor have I any interesting throwing insults and abuse, I am just stating a fact that unlike other coins your coin is hardly talked about. If you want Feathercoin to enjoy more success - change that and the rest will follow.

If you have any questions you wish to ask me you will find me on #worldcoin in freenode where I always am… You will find me open and honest.

Regards, Xodianbarr.
