lol, KYLE became a hobo?  Sad, I was beginning to like that guy.
I've found out that many gamblers lead strange lives.

Don't look that shocked. This "KYLE" account has been quite profitable, already.

Hobo? Maybe he should be trying to make some money instead of sitting in just-dice chat all day begging

Well, looks like Kouye is spilling his faggotry out in the forums again...

If you are going to call a guy out on something, have proof.
I'm currently without a house, crashed on a friends couch until I can get my own apartment.
People like you remind me how scummy humans can be. "Har har lets pick on the guy with no house" Dick.

And in regards to the clothes that is a $5 superstore shirt.. lmao.
Being homeless doesn't mean you wear clothes full of holes you silly geese. -_-

I know what homelessness is - I worked as a doorman downtown Edmonton for years.  I saw/see them all the time.

You're lucky you have a friend's couch to crash on, much less new clothes and a laptop.  Most homeless people don't have anything.

I was homeless for almost a month about a year ago.. Due to rough times, which I brought upon myself. Needless to say, I got my ass to a shelter and was sleeping on a red cross cot for 3+ weeks.

If you are truely homeless, get yourself to a shelter. They will feed you, you will have a place to sleep, with a blanket, you have showers, etc.

Why can't you start your job until the 30th? With all due respect, but due to your rough times, Id contact your boss and just say you are really going through a rough time, and that you'd like to see if there was any way you can start earlier. Not only would he appreciate your enthusiasm, but he seriously might be willing to help you out.

But never when I was homeless did I have to worry about signing online.. I understand mining may be a way to achieve funds, but, living on BTC can be very difficult, even in cities like SF. Get yourself some fiat, look for side jobs on Craigslist. Do something.. Don't sit on your laptop thinking you can beg your way out of this situation on JD.

For your information I've been working the past 2 weeks and haven't gambled since the 26th of september.

I'm currently couch surfing at a buddies place and I start my 12 hour night shifts this sunday.
To all you naysayers and mongols screaming scam *cough* kouye */cough* I honestly do not know where you get off on it.
I am indeed homeless, I do however have a friend that has allowed me to stay on his couch thank god.
As for starting work on the 30th. I started work on september 30th.. Tomorrow will be my 2 weeks at the new job. And payday is on the 19th of October. Not sure if I will be able to afford a place then as housing is quite expensive in Brandon,MB where I currently reside.

With all due respect I'd really appreciate if you people calling me a scam or whatnot please just keep your shit to yourself.
I had a bad while there, ended up homeless, battled gambling addiction and lost pretty much everything.
But I'm on my way to rebuilding my life. And I thank all those who have helped me out in the recent month via helping me order pizzas and donating/loaning me BTC to help feed me. Without the kindness people have exhibited I probably would have starved.

To the trolls, Go get a life.. If you honestly have nothing better to do then attack a guy down on his luck trying to make his life better then maybe we should swap shoes for a bit.. And you can see how it feels to be ridiculed for doing nothing wrong.

Stay safe guys,

Kyle.T

KYLE, to be honest, if I was homeless I wouldn't spend hours a day on bitcoin.  I would be looking for real jobs, probably offline.  Don't give up, but try not to immerse yourself too greatly in bitcoin when you are at such rough times.

Ignore the Bitcoin Nazis.


Keep it up, you can turn your situation around very quickly if you put your mind to it. :)

I had a friend who went from being homeless to buying a house in 1-2 years. He now has a nicer house than many of those who were high on their horse when he was down trodden.

He asked for donations and got them. As long as he is not lying about needing the donations, there is no scam.

Stop calling everyone a scammer, it's getting old.

haha, I know what you mean.  But you said you've spent over 1000 hours on a game, DIABLO 3, where you could have made (1000 x 10) $10000 + at minimum wage.

So, work hard until your life settles down a bit, then feel free to be an addict to bitcoin, like all of us again :O

I played around 1000 hours of Diablo 3 while I was making a decent living throwing shows and DJing..
I had no need to work a real job at that time.. I was making $200-$400 a night. :P
Got kicked out of my DJ crew for being to bad ass, and they haven't thrown a successful show since (karma is a bitch).
I appreciate those sticking up for me, thanks. And for those nit picking and shit talking.. you are just making me more famous. -_-

I got to go get ready for work. Have a nap before my shift. Take care all.

Stay safe,

How long have you been making the $200-$400 per night?  Because I don't get it, how can you go from $300/day to a hobo?
It just doesn't add up.  I'm not accusing anything though.

That post was just utterly useless.  Man, AndrewWilliams, why you hating?
Kouye, he was asking for donations so I doubt even the donors expected the money back.

I ain't hating, just think Kouye is acting like a douche. As you said, it's obvious he was getting donations. Asking him to pay back is a slap in the face, infact it's down right insensitive and asshole-ish.

Will you tip me with either:

- 0.1BTC
- A full report of your investigating files about on BFL, that we are all waiting for eagerly, still

If I end up being right? :)

Guy has gone silent, while still checking forum everyday. That's another red flag.
I'm pretty confident he scammed all the "donators", here.

Aren't you?

Negative, I don't tip insincere people like you.

LOL. Really?

You were badgering him a couple posts ago about posting on here and not working (which he is according to his posts, full time).
Now you badger him for not posting. WTF.

No, it seems you are only interested in putting down people. Maybe you should try helping out the less fortunate, it will earn you some good karma, something you desperately lack.

Stop using the word scam so much, you're wearing out the word. Next you'll be posting about how you got scammed at McDonald's because they forgot to put napkins in your Happy Meal.

Talk to you soon, Kanye, um, I mean Kouye. :)

Hail all. Hope everyone is ok.

Well, I'm just going to bare my teeth and utter nasties at Kouye *Insert nasty here*

I've been working night shifts and haven't had a whole hell of a lot of time to do much of anything internet related.
Finally a set of days off so I am quite happy to be able to relax and do some things i enjoy.

Ended up getting screwed by debt collectors and losing $620 (my own damn fault, cell phone from when I was 19).
They are watching my accounts so my fiat is about as safe as a baby in a wolfs den, which really sucks. :/

I'll try and pop on here more I guess. Seems I was missed.

Stay safe all,
