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.

Ooh delicious. Could someone please analyse this for us?

[–]coin-master 33ポイント34ポイント  (3子コメント)

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 30ポイント31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 17ポイント18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 24ポイント25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.")

[–]LovelyDay 30ポイント31ポイント  (3子コメント)

sockpuppeting finally caught up with him?

[–]ForkiusMaximus 6ポイント7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.

[–]E7ernal 6ポイント7ポイント  (0子コメント)

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 2ポイント3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 24ポイント25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.

[–]satoshis_sockpuppet 52ポイント53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 6ポイント7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 .

[–]pyalot 7ポイント8ポイント  (1子コメント)

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

[–]We_are_all_satoshi 7ポイント8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

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

cough /u/smartfbrankings cough

[–]ForkiusMaximus 5ポイント6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 -4ポイント-3ポイント  (0子コメント)

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

[–]segregatedwitness 9ポイント10ポイント  (1子コメント)

r/bitcoin style!

Karma bitch!

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

This karma is so sweet I'm going to get diabetes from it :D

He was on reddit 2 hours ago https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/5gf2bo/block_size_following_technological_growth_pieter/dat2mvi/

[–]realistbtc 11ポイント12ポイント  (0子コメント)

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

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

Reddit for big blocks!

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 11ポイント12ポイント  (1子コメント)

unless it's part of a larger pattern

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

[–]If_I_Do_Say_So 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

I think nullc's suspension has less to do with doxxing and more to do with continuous harassment and slander of certain redditor(s).

Ever since the whole spez thing, I'm sure complaints about harassment of other redditors is being taken more seriously. And you know what? This is a privately owned forum, and the admins should be able to ban whatever toxic people they want. It's their right to do so. And sometimes for a community to be healthy, you need to do some trimming and banish the shitheads.

[–]discoltk 10ポイント11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 18ポイント19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.

Umm.. why are you so sure it was doxxing?

[–]Ecomadwa 0ポイント1ポイント  (1子コメント)

I am not, but it is the one rule we have clear evidence of him violating. In the absence of strong evidence of him violating another rule, I assume that is the most likely explanation.

[–]jay45678 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

He is well known for socks. This doxxing, plus socks...

He will get a 1 day ban and told not to dox or sock. If he agrees he will be back.

[–]1BitcoinOrBust 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

There is a user profile for nullc on voat.co but it has zero activity.

Who's suspended?

[–]If_I_Do_Say_So 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

nullc's reddit account has been nullified. How fitting.

[–]Iuke-jr -3ポイント-2ポイント  (7子コメント)

No, he just got himself banned for 1 day for being an idiot.

[–]chinawat 5ポイント6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.

[–]chernobyl169 4ポイント5ポイント  (0子コメント)

No, he is suspended from Reddit. http://www.reddit.com/user/nullc/

[–]LovelyDay 3ポイント4ポイント  (2子コメント)

I'm sure you meant behaving like an idiot.

[–]Ecomadwa 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

Do you know what rule he broke? FYI, being an idiot is not against Reddit or /r/btc rules.

[–]homerjthompson_ 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

/u/iuke-jr

Welcome to reddit. Why are you impersonating Luke?

Good, we need the bright people to spend their time coding and improving bitcoin instead of dealing with internet shitposters.
