You would have thought a serious problem like this would be seen to a bit faster

If you have a 5 character or longer passphrase, this is not a problem, CAPTCHA's on the deep web are like a placebo given the latency and speed limitations, plus we have optional features such as PGP authenticated login to prevent these problems. We have actually fixed it and will be rolling it out with the bitcoin transaction update shortly.

Now this is a troll thread that we can just ignore, stop feeding them.

Am I the only one that's not too impressed with the weed vendor offerings so far? I'm looking for personal use amounts that are domestic, and it's slim pickens. Where are all the 1/8ths, 1/4s and halfs at?

I'm concerned that there aren't going to be enough of a variety of market offerings on opening day to maintain a good/quality supply to buyers such as myself that are planning to buy on opening day. I think supply is going to be an issue....there isn't enough.

where are you based?

I will have lovely organic outdoor when i get my listings up.  Mostly in small amounts

It was clearly not just their criticism that got them banned. I have also been quite critical at some of the choices made by the administration (particularly regarding marketplace security) and have not been banned or even warned. I think there was something else at play here other than their criticism. If they say its because it was likely Coachella, I would actually believe that. That dude is a nutcase.

And I have been critical of the invite system as it is, but I am still here.

Artist - If you take a look at the thread he posted and the snip of code I took from the URL he linked, the cause of the ban is much more than just being critical:

From what I see that code doesn't look particularly malicious, just some stupid widget or something. Anyone ("everyone who isn't an idiot") who is running noscript shouldn't be affected regardless.

Critical of the temporary invite system?

So far the only accounts that i have seen to post complaining about how the mods are allegedly censoring these forums following the banning of a coachella account(s) have been for the most part founds to be yet more coachella shills.

That is not to say every dissenting voice is cochella though and the admins/mods take the banning of accounts very serious and only do so when we have fully verified it is him, no one gets the ban hammer on a whim.

We have already seen how destructive an influence coachella can be on here, his ban is for life and will not be overturned, he earned it.

Proof?

This might come across as rather blunt but to put it clearly the administrators and moderators will run this forum as we see fit within the rules set-down by DPR and we are not beholden to you or anyone for that matter to provide you with anything.

If you have a problem with that please feel free to exercise your right to not participate, in case you hadn't noticed we are not running a democracy here.

If you feel like spinning that out into some conspiracy theory then go for it but what I have said has needed to have been said for quite some time.

No need for conspiracy theories here, i understand you. You know in all my years of dealing with kids the one thing that has always stood out is that the harder they fight the closer to the truth you are. This is what i mean when i say it doesnt help your image to ban people for speaking critically, this is how governments and children deal with things they dont like.

While it saddens me that so many people have decidedly jumped onboard beneath a moniker created by someone not much more experienced than you, it does so even more that the face of this revolution must be framed with the innocence of youth.
