Self-moderation seems especially bad in the altcoin section. A new coin maker can delete all the criticism of their coin and in the worst possible case delete people warning of a virus in the code during the coin release rush.

Yeah, it shouldn't be allowed in forums like this for sure. On a whole I'd say self-moderation isn't a good idea and is abused more than not.
19122  Other / Off-topic / Re: Amazon drones, lol on: December 17, 2013, 10:30:00 AM
This drone situation is compounded by the fact that drugs are coming over the border via drones, now.  How long till one of these cartels (probably the Sinaloa cartel) dress up a drone with an Amazon banner?  It's not a stretch, they already operate fully-submersible subs. 

I'm sure I read an article somewhere that drugs cartels had already tried or are doing this over the boarder. It's briefly mentioned here: http://newstalk870.am/mexican-drug-cartels-using-drones-to-scout-border-crossings/

Not sure how much drugs those tiny Amazon drones could carry though.

Some of us are legit ebay sellers with long positive sales histories...
And selling on ebay is our only job because we want to be self employed and not be someone elses b!&*#.

You can always sell on here or on localbitcoins, but obviously you're not going to get the inflated premium prices people pay on ebay. Yeah, ebay/paypal needs to get their act together and change their system, but until they do the risk of being scammed is the risk you take.

Maybe i have too much faith in the bitcoin forum, but i honestly expected better. Im betting the better members just havnt commented and weve so far manager to drum up the sludge from the bottom of the bucket, Well done sludge.

(sludge, you know who you are)

What do you expect when a picture of a half-naked woman gets posted on an internet message board? The virgins get jealous and call her a slut and the pervs get pervy. Any 'respectable' members will probably just stay away... or at least just quietly jack off to themselves.

I keep telling you - divide your bitcoins across different services/exchanges/wallets and you will be spared these dumb mistakes

Or just double check you don't send a 20BTC transaction fee.
19126  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Will I be able to use Bitcoins at the mall in 2014??? on: December 16, 2013, 09:59:20 PM
I hope we get some Bitcoin ATM machines here in the uk next year. That would really help promotion and legitimise it with the public.


I'm hoping for this also. I haven't heard any definite plans for any, but surely a few must pop up in 2014.

Does anyone know where you buy them from?

https://lamassu.is/


 $5,000 each for the lamassu ones.

I've heard this one only works one way Does it let you sell them or buy them? And can you buy them with bitcoins

I've no idea. Check the website or email them.

call the police!!!

I think the problem with this idea is that OP has a conscience otherwise he would have surely done this already.

Calling the fuzz is a last resort and is unnecessary unless he doesn’t heed my polite request.

is that what brits call the police? is that what hot fuzz was supposed to mean?

You can always ask him, you'd be surprised how well it can work out.

Then there's your landlord to go to.

We own the house and his grandparents own theirs.

are you sure it's stupidity? you could just make this shit up and sell your story to some media outlet. so many ways a playa can play the game.

Something tells me this guy isn't a master of chicanery.




But then again:

Quote
Mr Clatworthy previously made headlines in 2007 when, aged 12, he used his judo skills to catch a drink-driver who had crashed into three cars in Ilkeston Road, Radford
.

Maybe he's a master at courting the press for his own gain.

That hurts.

I do not know the specifics of the payout protocol of P2Ppool, but couldn't they simply send him the coins back in a great display of altruism?

The fee was distributed among 399 miners, would be difficult to contact all of them:

Difficult but not impossible.  Real altruism takes effort.

Some miners have given back mistakenly sent fees before I think. Maybe he can get some coins back.

Yes, it's annoying his stupidity has been rewarded with a free xbox.

According to wikipedia you died in 1860. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phineas_Gage

This is getting weirder and weirder

"Phineas P. Gage (1823–1860) was an American railroad construction foreman remembered for his improbable[C] survival of an accident in which a large iron rod was driven completely through his head, destroying much of his brain's left frontal lobe, and for that injury's reported effects on his personality and behavior over the remaining 12 years of his life, effects so profound that (for a time at least) friends saw him as "no longer Gage."

Hahahahahah. Hilarious etc.
19136  Economy / Service Announcements / Re: We're developing a card for you to spend BTC like cash, would you use it? on: December 16, 2013, 09:05:27 PM
Only if the card can be bought and loaded anonymously.

I really hate ignorant people like this, NO, we will not support scammers like you.

I would never use or support a system that was built from anonymous just so idiots like this guy can easily rob people.

He might not be intending to rob any one, some people just like the idea of the anonymity of Bitcoin, and/or also don't want the government or whatever snooping in on their purchases.
