reddit always had an hard stance on doxing : that's why even r\btc that is super relaxed just about everything have to remind on the right panel that doxing isn't permitted .

sucks for nullc thou .... now he'll have to use only all the others accounts he manage .

note that reddit says :

" Suspensions can only be applied to accounts by the admins, employees of Reddit. "

so he cannot claim to be the victim of some overzealous r\btc mod .

It's possible that due to the doxing hub-hub an admin looked at his account and concluded he's using several accounts for prohibited activity, and they banned him because of that. In that case, several other socketpuppet accounts would also be freshly banned.

Since his Wikipedia debacle he is a known master of sockpuppet accounts, so reddit can never really suspend him. He can just use some other of his at least several dozen accounts.

[–]r1q2 29ポイント30ポイント  (2子コメント)

But there is no way for him to get a 'Greg Maxwell - Bitcoin expert' flare on his sockpuppet account(s).

[–]coin-master 13ポイント14ポイント  (0子コメント)

True, but some "Anti-Bitcoin" flare would probably fit way better anyway

BS is tasting their own medicine, must be sweet.

[–]totoCZE 26ポイント27ポイント  (4子コメント)

LOL. And it's not even a temporary one. ("Permanent suspensions will be publicly communicated via the userpage of the affected user.")

sockpuppeting finally caught up with him?

[–]ForkiusMaximus 4ポイント5ポイント  (2子コメント)

If it's a sock you would know by checking the other sock accounts. Both/all accounts would be banned for the same amount of time. I doubt he had any socks. For example, many thought he was /u/smartfbrankings or /u/brg444, and now that is proven false - if the ban was for sockpuppetry anyway (click the links to confirm they are not banned, while /u/nullc is). No idea why people ever thought that was the case.

Yah it's obviously not Greg who does the sockpuppeting. BS outsources that stuff - it's cheap and you don't ever have to worry about it being traced to you directly.

[–]ethMonkey 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

Just because he wasn't caught with those particular ids, doesn't mean they are not his...

[–]chriswheeler 21ポイント22ポイント  (0子コメント)

I can't see why this would be a problem for him. There are plenty of alternate websites he can post messages to.

rBitcoin will say that Roger Ver paid Reddit to make it happen, I guarantee it

[–]satoshis_sockpuppet 46ポイント47ポイント  (3子コメント)

I guess it was Adam Back who wanted to see Greg at work from time to time.

[–]realistbtc 5ポイント6ポイント  (0子コメント)

but now he'll have to deal with greg insisting for blockstream to buy reddit ! he may even go on strike .

It'd do wonders for his productivity, if you could multiply zero by any number and get more than zero.

[–]We_are_all_satoshi 6ポイント7ポイント  (0子コメント)

nullc was more of a negative, giving him zero is giving him to much credit

[–]helpergodd 22ポイント23ポイント  (7子コメント)

cough /u/smartfbrankings cough

[–]ForkiusMaximus 2ポイント3ポイント  (0子コメント)

If he was banned for sockpuppetry (not against reddit rules, but double-voting is), both accounts would be banned at the same time. So no.

[–]Internetworldpipe -5ポイント-4ポイント  (0子コメント)

Oh well, guess I'll just have to use this one.

Karma bitch!

The guy accused people of sock puppetry all the time... looks like it was projection.

that's peculiar .... maybe it's due to the time an actual reddit employee took to evaluate his case ?

Reddit for big blocks!

So there is justice in the world after all!

Now wouldn't it be cool if Thymos got suspended!

[–]Ecomadwa 12ポイント13ポイント  (6子コメント)

I'm no fan of Maxwell, but the Reddit rules for doxxing are overly strict. Mentioning someone's name in isolation, something publicly available, is not doxxing unless it's part of a larger pattern. It does not act as a call to harassment or intimidation etc.

[–]H0dlr 8ポイント9ポイント  (0子コメント)

unless it's part of a larger pattern

This is exactly the problem in this case. Dozens of times.

[–]discoltk 8ポイント9ポイント  (3子コメント)

I can understand reddit wanting a no tolerance policy as it's easier to manage than having to adjudicate it case by case. But yea there should be at least one of two criteria. Either there is obvious malicious intent, or details which were not trivially available before through a simple search (news sites, court records, etc), then there should be no tolerance. If the person isn't a well known figure and you're obviously intending to create a witch hunt, I'm fine with erring on the side of protecting the targeted person, though when its ambiguous maybe a single warning would suffice.

[–]coin-master 22ポイント23ポイント  (1子コメント)

malicious intent

Well, he actually is the personification of malicious intent.

[–]discoltk 15ポイント16ポイント  (0子コメント)

You know I defended him many times, despite disagreeing. I really thought that, while misguided, he had good intentions. Had a conversation with him just yesterday that showed me otherwise.

[–]1and1make5[S] 11ポイント12ポイント  (0子コメント)

There's at least one archive of them doxing from a couple of months ago so their behavior to dox people isn't new.

The suspension looks like it could be permanent;

Suspensions can only be applied to accounts by the admins, employees of Reddit.

Suspensions can be permanent or temporary, depending on the nature of the violation and the history of the person in question.

Temporary suspensions will only be apparent to the user affected.

Permanent suspensions will be publicly communicated via the userpage of the affected user.

I'm sure you meant behaving like an idiot.

[–]chinawat 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

Um, hate to break this to you Luke, but check /u/nullc's user page. That's not a mod ban, that's a Reddit suspension, and it may actually be permanent.

I have no one to fight with. This is unacceptable. Save /u/nullc
