So, how many of these transactions are they going to be putting out, does anyone know? With what fee?

It's not even that much but there's always the option to sell your signature on here.

if you're trying a site for the first time, why would you deposit 5.5btc into it? makes no sense
Because a fool and his money are quickly parted. Just because they have a lot of money does not mean they are smart.

It seems odd that they would force you to take bitcoin with the extra charge when they are the ones who incorrectly drew too much from your account.
Also to ironically note that is only possible with a pull-based system. If Bitcoin was the main currency, then no company could have made this mistake. Even more ironic is that it was caused BY a bitcoin company.
While I'm not sure why this is the path they took to correct this problem, they have served us well for turning our "pull based money" into bitcoin.

The whole point of bitcoin is to stay away from banks.
First question why should someone use your service when they can make a cold wallet on there computer or a flash drive?
Because then they wouldn't be able to take the coins you willingly give them and put them into their own pockets.

hi, sorry for being silent for too long. Have responded to everyone in PM
No you havent. Quite unprofessional, I'll wait a bit longer for your PM. If you're really looking to get someone to hire you, even if it's for $20 a week, do you really think talking to them like that will help your chances? What are you trying to accomplish here?

I'll have a go at it, my guess is 43 (Thanks javascript rng). Nice to see these fun giveaways with our cool technology.

It's fairly easy for the NSA or any other law enforcement agency to attach an identity to a single Bitcoin address. No matter how hard you try, you can't escape law enforcement entities like the NSA or even FBI. They know more about you than you do yourself. Seeing as Bitcoin is publicly logged for every transaction you make, it's fairly easy for NSA analysts to go through and single out your addresses.
It's not fairly easy if you are taking the proper security measures, which you should be taking. If you want privacy, use mixers. Use cold storage. Use a new address for each transaction.

How is this thread still going from 2011...are you all really that salty that you can't stop talking about the price instead of talking about all the uses it still has?

Seriously this is super disappointing that the developers can't come to some sort of agreement on a simple code change/removal of a number in the code.
Imagine adding any more changes to the code that could or would help bitcoin become a better digital cash that Satoshi meant Bitcoin to be.
Mind boggling.
It's a bit more complicated than just changing a number, and when I say that I don't mean it literally, but in the sense that changing that number has very large implications for the whole community. I'm glad they're taking their time on this.

The people that are using faucets are likely also people that don't have the money or aren't financially stable enough to drop $100 on bitcoin.

Don't gamble unless it's provably fair, and don't trust provably fair systems unless you follow all the necessary steps to do so.

If Bitcoin went offline for good, I'm assuming that means nobody can make an active connection to the p2p network. The first thing to happen would be anybody that has coins in exchanges would be selling them as fast as they could. Coinbase would probably stop allowing selling, and I would wager that other exchanges would freeze trading also. Other than that, not much would happen because nobody would be able to transfer any more coins. There would be a lot of panic.

No. The current "stress test" attacks on Bitcoin work and can actually be profitable because the fixed 1 MB blocksize limit is a fundamental flaw in Bitcoin. Stress testing the messenger (attacker if you wish) is not going to solve the problem, quite apart from the legal ramifications of such action.
Can you give an example of how this attack can be profitable? Are there alternative mechanisms to specifically address this type of spam, rather than simply increasing block size (presumably infinitely, if I recall your position correctly)? It can be profitable if they manage to get people to write stories about them, because it could cause people's transactions to take longer to confirm. It's an advertising gig.

others think fauceting is not a good idea because at the end of the day, all you get is just a few satoshis but if you will try to get referrals, that's where you get get more satoshis in 1 day.
And which one is a good method to get referrals? A faucet rotator? banner campaigns? If you want to get lots of referrals then there are many ways to get. First one which i prefer is to share less than a half of the referrals bonus with your referrals Secondly to advertise in faucets with banner campaigns, another way is writing a review(blog post) for the faucet etc... Yeah, you can get a lot of people to willingly sign up for your referrals if you share a percentage of the bonus received with them.

Is there support for customers in the US? Will this website even work for me?

I always like to imagine the day when we look at 1000 Satoshi in the same way we now look at this 1.00000000 in BTC value. If/when BTC does get mass adoption, then small faucet money now may be worth a fair bit more.
Faucets are a safe way to begin using BTC without any potential loss.
Well, there is the aspect of building up a lot of dust transactions in your wallet, then the next transactions to include all those inputs are going to take forever to confirm or cost a lot of money in transaction fees.

Online off-chain wallets have never been a good idea. See: inputs.io. You only own the coins if you're the only one with the private keys.

Even if it's not Bitcoin, hopefully other people continue to build on the same P2P technology.
