I would like a relatively small loan in the amount of .0025 BTC. I will pay you back double that amount within 48 hours, with this account offered as collateral. thanks for your consideration!

requested loan: .0025 BTC
amount to be repaid: .005 BTC
term: 48 hours

Are you sure you can pay double within 48 hours? I will give you the amount, but only if you hand over the account to me or to an escrow that we will hire and until you pay me back, the account will stay out of your hands.

first i think your account didnot cost 0.0025, and second according to your last posts, you are gambler and what this money for gambling and i am 100% sure you will lose and willnot be able to repay back.

if you are really  able to double your money in 48 hour, you wouldn't needed to lend from someone

Oh, sorry, i did not check his post history before replying. I think i should stay out of this as it can just cost me the money i will lend and i won't get anything back from this deal. So, i'm out of it.

I have never asked for a loan and wasn't sure what to expect or if my account was even worth .0025 BTC. it sounds like that valuation is on the high side, which is understandable. that said, I have no intention of losing this account for such a small amount of bitcoin. if you will take a chance with me, I assure you I will pay you back .005 BTC in 48 hours or less. if you're not comfortable with these terms, I understand and respect your decision. either way, thanks for your consideration.

1. Yes, you just ask for a Loan already.
2. You care not lose a Member Account here?  It's not so difficult to make a new one and get to "Member" rank in 0 time.  So please, spare us from the fake "necessity" and the bond that you have with your Account. It's not working.
3. Telling that you assure us that you will repay, doesn't mean that you will. The 98% of those who ask for a Loan and promise/assure/swear that they will repay their Loan, always Default on them.
4. If you want to get a Loan, offer a Valid Collateral. Simple as that.

1. are you trying to be clever? this is the first loan I have asked for, so I wasn't sure if my account would be valid collateral.

2. considering the fact I never said or implied such a thing, putting "necessity" in quotation marks is odd.. I said "I have no intention of losing this account.." does that suggest some sort of intense bond to you? your comment "it's not working" implies I'm being dishonest.

3. fair point. my assurance doesn't count for much.

4. I've seen member accounts used as collateral. I wasn't sure if mine was worth what I was asking for, and I acknowledged that I was probably wrong with respect to its valuation.

I know there are a lot of scammers out there, so you naturally assume I'm one of 'em. your post drips with the sentiment "you're not fooling me!" well you're right. I'm not even trying to fool you. your response was rude and unnecessary.

1. No, i am. You wasn't sure if your Account is Valid Collateral but you knew that Accounts used as Collateral. How does this even make any sence?
Imo you post for a Loan, just to see how many BTC you can get with your Account.

2. I don't imply, i say it straight. Sorry but yes, most likely you are. you have no intension to lose your Account but you don't have any problem to just give it away. And you are not even a Full member here...

3 & 4. A total "stranger" here asking a Loan and he assure us that he will repay. How much you evaluate his word? The amount that you ask is enough?
I don't assume anything, you did. My posts drips with the sentiment "you are not going to get ANY Loan with your Account here as Collateral".
So you can try as much as you want to fool not only me but everybody here. You will be surprised how many members can be really rude, i'm not even close to it.

1. I know that some lenders accept member ranked accounts as collateral, but I don't know what mine is worth. if it is only worth .0005 BTC, then it would not be valid collateral. my wording made perfect sense.

2. it's not wise to be overly trusting of strangers, so I don't blame you for assuming I am a dishonest person. but you have no reason to be rude about it.

3. did you even read what I wrote? I said you made a fair point and that my assurance is indeed irrelevant. I am not trying to fool anyone. I have never requested a loan before, so this is a learning experience. if I ever request a loan in the future, I will be sure to offer better collateral.

you believe I am a crook, looking for easy money, and honestly, I understand why you might feel that way. but your attitude is unwarranted.

Well, the system needs to be updated according to the USD as the BTC price has high fluctuation and hence, it doesn't justify the rates it is showing.

Very Poor? damn.. that's harsh.. I wonder how post quality is determined.

Character count. I checked and a lot of your posts are just 11 or so characters, which is not very attractive.

that makes sense. a lot of my posts are very brief. I haven't thought about it till now, but you're right. and since I'm planning on getting involved with a signature campaign soon, this is really helpful feedback.

thanks
