Bitcoin : DYOR there is no abusive pattern with heuristic punch, what I have found is an abusive moderation pattern by BitcoinXio and /r/btc mods who use ad hom rules to silence voices that go against the party line. In all this REAL abusers are tolerated as long as they support the party line.
When asked why /u/heuristicpunch was banned /u/BitcoinXio answered: [Multiple times in an aggressive manner he called other users “bitch”…](https://www.reddit.com/r/btc/comments/9b9mf0/csw_threatens_to_double_spend_steal_and_attack/e51iou3/)
If you look at the comments, hp calls someone ‘bitch’ **only 2 times**. BitcoinXio also hints at a pattern, but **there is no pattern**. heuristic uses the word bitch **in only one comment** and the word ‘bitches’ **in another single comment**. Both these comments are part of a chit chat thread with another user who insults him too.
/u/pristinepool received a “fuck off” 2 times today, the abuser (/u/rdar1999) wasn’t banned until one hour later after saying fuck off to another 3rd person.
Digging deeper what emerges is a **moderation pattern** by r/btc where really abusive users are tolerated while others are abusively labelled as abusive to justify censorship. One of the really abusive users around /r/btc is /u/Zectro, contrary to heuristicpunch where the word bitch seems to be a one time occurrence, Zectro has been telling people to go “fuck themselves” for at least 29 days
Insult 1: “[Seriously dude, go fuck yourself](https://www.reddit.com/r/btc/comments/9bx308/ucryptorebel_is_on_his_181st_comment_in_the_past_21_hours._more_evidence_th/e56m6j1/?context=3)”
Insult 2: […] [Kindly go fuck yourself](https://www.reddit.com/r/btc/comments/95o2k2/when_unullc_greg_max_swell_joins_the_party_you_can_be_certain_theres_an_ava/e3wi35w/?context=3)
Insult 3: [Fuck you](https://www.reddit.com/r/btc/comments/95c9i2/reminder_while_a_single_person_was_unjustly/e3ryw86/?context=3)
But Zectro is still welcome in this community while heuristicpunch has been permanently kicked.
A lot of us come here looking for accurate information and expecting unbiased moderation. /r/bitcoin censorship posts are blasted on the front page quite frequently but nobody is talking of the shady censorship going on in this very subreddit. There is evidence proving that the moderation team of /r/btc uses ad hom moderation rules to purge people who do not follow the party line. Bear in mind that heuristic is also a BCH builder but apparently the party line is what matters most to r/btc mods.
