It seems this guy is using the same tactics the FBI is using to hunt you down, Google search, it is officially on when this guy finds out about 411.com or pipl. Oh my.

Edit for reddit - Whatever rules you see below, just reply to the post on reddit http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/ik0w9/a_contest_purely_to_promote_bitcoin_win_signed/ with who you have chosen. 2 Tweets per day, you can't use a choice someone has made just on reddit, so the choices used above are free to you, that is it, good luck. Welcome to the First Annual Unofficial Bitcoin.org Forums #BuyWithBitcoin ContestThis is super simple and has a nice prize for geeks, just make sure to read all the rules. But hey, we are Bitcoin users, we can handle a few extra lines in the fine print if it makes sense. This is quite a real contest and is for the pure promotion of Bitcoin, so read on. You must Tweet someone who has a Verified Twitter Account using the hashtag #BuyWithBitcoin with the catch that they have not been Tweeted yet. Make sure they have this on their Twitter page. You can see a full listing of who has verified accounts here http://twitter.com/verified/lists, there is a lot to choose from. Be creative with who you choose and your Tweet, this will not earn you any bonus points, but have fun. Right after you make this Tweet, reply back to this thread with a link to that Tweet or your page or the person you Tweeted so I can find the message and verify this is a real Tweet and an entry into this contest.
Since you are not allowed to Tweet anyone who has been Tweeted yet, before you send a message, check the thread to make sure you don't accidentally pick someone over. Basically, I fucked it up for anyone who wanted to take @BillGates. Sorry. Only Two Tweets(Entries) per day! Ends July 14th, 11:59PM EST. All Tweets after that do not count. BONUSIf anyone you Tweet replies back, automatic 10 bonus point entries, no joke. WinnerThe winner, determined by random.org by using your post number from the thread as your entry and if you have a second Tweet in the same post I will make sure the second entry is there. The prize, a Street Fighter comic book signed by Alvin Lee. There is no CoA, it was signed at a table at a convention, it is real. He is easy to get a hold of and I'm sure could verify his signature if you were thinking of winning to get rid of it for whatever reason. If that is not your thing, maybe leave the Winning prize to the runner up and take this.. Runner UpTen Batman POGS. Milk Caps. Little slices of heaven. From Skybox, hand picked to even have a double on purpose, that one kicks ass. Good luck

Though not perfected, I still back Bitcoin in long term for it is just a better solution for people to make transactions, and that will hold true I think. Security needs to become a personal thing, and people need to stop worrying so much about the program. The exchanges however, well it would be nice if a big name someone stepped in on just this one aspect.

I don't care if he has my account number and people know about my miniscule amount of btc. If hackers can: 1) find my computer 2) access my computer 3) hack my account 4) hack my truecrypt key Then power to them. It will, after all, only take 674,909,467,304,392,809,907,186,036.3 years to hash my password at 500 Mhash/sec. (tl;dr value: 674 septillion years) Good luck! Pardon me, I think usually people leave one of these at this point in the thread

This is one of those things that is up to the shop owner. I mean, if I could afford it, I would take a cut every time, but I would be ensuring that whatever I am doing would not only have a good product but promote Bitcoin in someway as well. Basically take a slight monetary loss and ensure the benefits are shown to the customer and I think in the end will be better for long term business.
In the end I think it is kind of what you are saying in the sense that the people who have the most sway with the product itself, are able to move quicker with any drastic market changes.

Speed Bumps on the Road to Virtual CashMONEY is accumulated, traded and transferred online every day, but can there be a form of currency that exists only online and yet has real-world value? Gavin Andresen, who is the lead developer of the open-source software that operates the currency, said in an interview from his home in Amherst, Mass.: “I expected it to have lots of speed bumps along the way — but I didn’t expect there to be so many speed bumps in a row.” “I’ve sold 24 collars, 13 leashes and 1 pair of ‘Disco Knickers’ with Bitcoin over the last few months,” she wrote in an e-mail. “The first order I had was for 42 BTC, which was worth about $40 at the time, but now those coins would be worth around $680! Originally I had a fixed Bitcoin price, but now I do a conversion based on the exchange rate.” “This is a censorship-proof currency that allows transactions to happen,” he said. “Right now what are those sort of transactions? Gambling, buying drugs — that is what is going to jumpstart it.” Two page article at http://www.nytimes.com/2011/07/04/business/media/04link.htmlI would not say this is necessarily a positive spin for Bitcoin, but the smarter reader I think can take a lot out of this piece.

An associate of mine who is not currently into Bitcoin, wants in. Here is his booty Your $3 offer for a mere 40 points has insulted him. He has forced me to take that picture and let you all know the new deal in town, over 300 points, for $$?? Make him an offer. I think he is going to leave them here. If you expect me to type this up, there will be a charge for that lol.

With all of this bitching in this thread going on... can someone make a competing website that has a plugin for wordpress, blogger, SMF, etc so that community users can mine bitcoins for us and charge a lesser fee? If I was smart enough with coding I would do this, and blow bitcoinplus out of the water. However I am not, and no other viable option is available so I will keep using BC+. The great part about capitalism is that if no competing products are available, you can pretty much charge whatever you want...
Exactly. The only competition was Bitp.it and those guys run and pool and are no longer doing this, I swear their code was open source though, just too lazy find it. There is, or was, also BitJam http://forum.bitcoin.org/index.php?topic=11549.0I await any competition as well, the technology is too good of a concept where even if it is abused by both websites and users (as I feel I see in this thread), it will still continue on for the people who see how it can be used properly (and of course for gain).

If everyone here would just take half the time the use yelling Buy!/Sell!, Rally!/Crash! and spend it promoting this new currency that we're trying to introduce/working on security issues/something useful, then the Bitcoin world would be a much nicer place. On top of it. Got friends of mine in on my venture in my signature. I like Bitcoin and invest in it more than in theory or asking for donations, others should to if they aren't going to put back their coin itself into the community, then contribute a good or service. Playing the market is fun, but that is because I enjoy gambling, I fear why other people jump into it, and I get sad when they leave thinking it has anything to do with the Bitcoin itself if they get fucked in a market.
