Whoops.  It appeared I made a mistake!!  I'll modify the negative trust right away.
Yeah, thanks, appreciated. Edit: Please make it state that I'm scamming Microsoft and not that I am a scammer in general, because that isn't true, I don't scam anyone I do business with.

Not a problem.  It's important to me that I maintain integrity on this forum.

This better not come down on the united shits of america or there'll be more war talk going forward. It's likely to just see an ocean drop and that will be it.

When it burns up in the atmosphere it will no longer exist to fall anywhere.  Only a "few small parts" would be likely to remain.

It's not a solid piece of rock like a meteor.  The hull will be breached and fire will consume the ship from the inside and out simultaneously, unlike a meteor which only burns from the outside surface area and therefore can survive a lot longer.

Lol. Statistics show guys are worse drivers, just sayin..

http://www.cheapcarinsurance.net/10-reasons-why-men-are-better-drivers-than-women/  Grin

Martians have 0 accidents. Take total or per mile driven. Wink

Thanks for the link but I don't agree with most of it. Point number one for example, it says men are involved in fewer crashes than women per mile driven. Well that's true but only because women tend to swerve and crash to avoid hitting people/animals. You guys being " strong men" just seem to keep driving no matter what gets in your way. Find the statistics on number of people and animals killed by men drivers vs women drivers and you'll see we kill far less than you :p

That's complete bullshit.  Don't try to drive into people/animals in the first place.



Well if a cute raccoon is crossing the road right in front of you, what do you do? Be honest. I know what I would do. Poor thing.

I would stop my car.  I wouldn't swerve into oncoming traffic causing an accident.

I'm aware of my surroundings at all times, including what's coming up.... I'm not distracted while driving like most women.

I liked one of the comments I read on that link though.

"Saying men are better drivers is completely sexist!  Women are better drivers!"

Hello everyone.
Let's say I own a default trust account and decided to make a few bucks by helping people out.  Wanted to know which subforum to promote my business in.  I'm planning on using trusted escrow, so not scamming.
Thanks.
that's gay trust must be earned not bought by a newbie like myself

How is gay trust different than normal trust?

If I trust a person and someone else trusts the same person, is that gay trust?

There is growing evidence that OP sucks at reason and science.

vs. the guy (BADecker) that is claiming a 600 year old man took 17,000,000 animals onto a giant ship for 400 days with no food or water?  Yep - the bible says so, so it must be true...

You think the OP is the nut job?   Roll Eyes

I was just looking at some peoples recent posts and see they aren't using escrow... Why can't the whole forum be like this?

Two reasons:

1) Anonymous accounts (attract people with no ethics or morals)
2) Irreversible currency

It does appear that way, however that was a brand new member who posted those accusations so its hard to say whether or not it was true but it does appear TravelKings disappeared so it does seem that way, but trust me I am here to stay and will always use escrow.

"Trust" a throwaway account.  Good one.   Cheesy
12690  Economy / Lending / Re: Need a loan, Steam Key collateral on: May 06, 2015, 05:20:19 PM
Using 3 steam key's as collateral, FarSky, Run the Sun and Arena: Cyber Revolution Founders Pack DLC.

Total Collateral Fiat Value: £38.97
Total Collateral BTC Value: 0.2567 (At current exchange rate as of 9:00am 6/5/2015)

What I need: 0.2BTC
What for: Investment to buy CryptoSpots (currently trading on Alcurex at 125 Satoshi each)
How many will you buy: 80,000 @ 250 (Slightly less than the highest price which I was selling at myself yesterday)
Repayment by: 20/5/2015
Interest: 10%
Total Repayment: 0.22

Comment here to say you wish to provide the loan, Key's will be passed to any escrow you want me to use.



To verify these keys work, won't the escrow/lender have to use them?
Once they are used, how can they be returned to you?
12691  Other / Meta / Re: Vod making false accusations about me | Providing proof for Mod or admin on: May 06, 2015, 04:33:47 PM
Is there a link to the TOS for these Microsoft licenses love to read that?

TOS is a matter of civil law anyway. Breaking TOS is not a crime but you may be held liable for damages, it is much different than criminal law. If every virtual good on this forum had to follow TOS there would be no virtual goods. Go read them, they virtually all exclude non-authorized retailers.

Not complaining about the civil TOS but the obvious criminal theft.  The scammer wants you to believe they own these MSDN/BizSpark/whatever subscriptions legally, yet they sell more keys than they have on that subscription.  So they are asking you to believe they are legally purchasing multiple copies of these thousand dollar subscriptions and selling the contents for hundreds.  They are just that charitable.  lol

I'm glad you understand what you did was wrong.  Such an idea would never work in this community due to the lack of law enforcement and the ease of fraud (Person A could lend to Person B who would default and they would collect insurance together).

I've removed your negative trust.

I would prefer this thread not be used for discussion of any one particular issue - if you'd like the community to vet your ideas, please start a new topic outside this thread.  Thanks!

Why have I been banned today?! The ban reason says insubstantial post+sig ad
My posts were not insubstantial etc in any way(at least in my opinion). So may any moderator please give me a more detailed reason? Would be great to hear what I actually did wrong.

You were banned for insubstantial posts and running a signature ad - don't waste the moderator's time when the reason is clear.

To be frank - your opinion doesn't matter.   Undecided

Fracking awesome news!   For 44 years (as long as I have been alive) the PC party (based out of Calgary) has pretty well ignored Edmonton's needs.

Now with the NDP party (based out of Edmonton) we should finally get some much needed capital projects started!

After 44 years any party will become smug and corrupt.  Change was needed.  Smiley

No offense but bitcointalk is full of selfish individuals, most of them wanna troll on others peoples threads instead of trying to say positive things to the members.  I can rant here because is offtopic

I think your point was just proven in this thread alone.   Undecided
12696  Economy / Lending / Re: [Insurance service] [New] tm2013's Bitcoin Lenders' Insurance Pool on: May 06, 2015, 03:38:31 AM
Will never work.  Too much fraud.

This is just a way for you to get some coins.
It's a needed service. I have lent money here and became well known and trusted, I was defaulted on many times and would have used this service. I have done work with many people across the forum and have built up a large and trustworthy reputation. If I just wanted coins, there would be easier ways than this.

I'm considering leaving you negative trust for this, but I want to confirm with probability that it is a scam.  To that end, I'm going to ask you some questions.

1) Are you an insurance agent?
2) Are you prepared to do your fiduciary duty to your clients, based on your advanced knowledge of insurance?
3) Are you prepared to fully identify yourself and your insurance agency, and to provide sufficient collateral?
4) Are you prepared to challenge the owners of this forum to provide better law enforcement methods?
5) Are you prepared to take out fiat insurance to cover the bitcoins you will be holding?

I'll give you a hint about #5 - you won't be able to take out actual insurance because bitcoin and this forum is the wild west with absolutely no law enforcement.  No actual insurance agency will look at you.  In fact, a good portion of people have shown they are OK with fraud as long as it benefits bitcoin commerce (Vod vs. Microsoft scammers)

6) Did you just pull the 0.1btc per month out of thin air or do you have actuary tables that show the rate of fraud here?
7) You are nobody.  What is to stop you from taking the coins and disappearing?


1) No
2) Yes
3) No
4) No
5) No

Your hint: The majority of the bitcoin world would be illegal if brought before the face of the law.

6) Those rates have yet to be calculated.

At least the idea is out there. If Ognasty or quickseller or someone like you wanted to run the service, then by all means do it. But this is a needed service, regardless of being an actual insurance in the eyes of the law. It's more a pooling of risk among lenders.

You are not an insurance agent, but you are willing to collect consideration for promised protection while being anonymous.  That sir, is against the law (aka fraud, aka scam).

It's not just an actual idea - you have provided a bitcoin address.  You are looking to scam right now.
12697  Economy / Lending / Re: [Insurance service] [New] tm2013's Bitcoin Lenders' Insurance Pool on: May 06, 2015, 03:28:33 AM
Quoting for reference.

Hello all on the lending thread, I am back in the action, but this time with a service.

The concept is simple: Create an insurance fund for lenders in case of potential default.

Starting plan:
--0.1 BTC per month.
Coverage:
--Up to 75% of the loan being defaulted on.
Range of Coverage:
--If there is not enough funds in the pool, you will be paid out once there are.
Qualifying defaulted loans:
--The loan must be negotiated in public and bitcoin/pgp signed.
Fees:
--5% of the insurance pool per fiscal quarter. May be lowered at any time if this is deemed too high.
To be qualified for this insurance, you must meet the following requirements:
--Be a well-known or well-trusted lender
--Meet the above requirements
--Pay to the pool address your monthly fee while stating your TXID of the payment in a PM.

Insurance Pool Address: 1KbWAJ68AWNALveSWCsgDRb1wxSem7YuQz
DO NOT PAY TO ANY ONE ELSE BUT HERE.

If there is anything I should add or modify, or if you would like to apply/discuss rates, please do so below.

Thank you and best regards.

7) No varying rate tables?  A simple 0.1 btc/month no matter the amount or risk or factors?
8 ) You are nobody.  You have ZERO trust here.  What is to stop you from taking the coins and disappearing?

I thought I had it bad... you have more red paint on your trust that me Vod. You've been really busy pissing in lots of people's coffee. Must be a full time gig busting a holes for scams. Why bother giving them a break?

In certain situations, it's appropriate to remove negative trust if the user has shown they understand they made a mistake and they won't do it again.
