Actually, on every forum I modded, I stay away from things that I have a strong opinion for and against.
So it would hinder your job as a mod. |

Moderation and censorship are not the same thing. I wouldn't want TradeFortress to be a moderator for example, as he would delete any Ripple thread and call it "SCAM".
This is completely off the mark. Actually not, you would mod those with emotion and feelings then being a neutral party. |

So trezor, is now taking pre-orders, and it looks sexy, it is open source and it has a BIP 32 wallet. So I am not married to the device. But should I pre-order it.
I know multibit will support it, but is their a patch for bitcoin-qt that will be released?
Will bitcoind support this? So then I can run a bitcoind for my company and give out addresses without worrying about a hacker.
Will the core developers be officially supporting this device? (Gavin gave it his blessing)
Does anyone know if Armory would be supporting this? I hope armory would support this so then I don't need a whole offline computer just for signing transactions.
Anyone know if I should get this or wait for more competition?
I think Slush is an outstanding member so thank you for developing this much needed tool!

http://www.coindesk.com/inside-bitcoins-show-to-accept-bitcoins-hand-out-paper-wallets/People who want to attend the Inside Bitcoins conference in New York City next month will have the option of paying their registration fees with bitcoins. Show organizers also say that everyone attending the show will also receive a paper wallet with 0.01 bitcoin (around $1.09 as of today’s trading) to get “hands-on experience with virtual currency.”
Wow I get a whole $1.09 back off of the $299 I have to pay. I was actually considering going, but then I always on these forums so I am pretty in-touch with what is going on. Plus I know Charlie is there so I have to sit thru some foundation BS, that will make my skin crawl. I like Bitinstant Charlie, I don't like foundation Charlie that much. Also they ask so much information, why can't I just register with bitcoin get an e-ticket. Airplanes can do it, why not conferences? When are their going to be some high-level bitcoin meet ups, that is what we need. Most these events are just to network and introduce people to bitcoins. I am introduced to bitcoin where do I go now? I can't. I don't know how this turned in to a rant but yeah.

I want to start buying stuff with bitcoins on the forum but I don't want random users to have my address. I looking for something like this https://www.bufferbox.com/ but in more places. Or if anyone has some experience with this? I don't really want open a P.O box either. |

I am not trolling, but I like to read the off-topic and sometimes people post their sob stories. And it just kills my day, real or fake still makes me questions my own morality and I want to be able to block those. So having a sob story sub forum would allow me to do this the best way.

I been reading on a lot of articles that are stating that these and a couple virtual currencies sites were seized because of bitcoin. This couldn't farther from the true and these incorrect statements are hurting the bitcoin community. This may seem like old news or a rant, and it is just a bit of house cleaning to keep us all on the same page.
Could this seize ever happen to bitcoins, NO, will this make bitcoins illegal NO. Could this seize happen to a Bitcoin company YES! Remember if your running a bitcoin company to just follow the regulations, I do it on every company I have built, and I have helped many people that I have built websites do it. Pay your taxes, and don't commit fraud, these are probably the hardest ones to do, cause bitcoin makes it really easy to hide funds. I believe in building this community off on the right foot, and not shooting ourselves in the foot. I have so many bitcoin ideas, that I could start today, and not care about regulations. I could buy a domain in the RU (Russia) or SX (Sint Maarten) and not use my real information, but I don't. I research out every regulation of the idea, and we really need to start doing this.
Two companies that I highly respect for doing this is Bitinstant and Trade Hill. They both could just throw up a website like many have down now and not play attention to regulations, but they do. By doing that they are growing a positive view of the community in the government eyes. I know one of the benefits of bitcoins is not to have regulations, but I think only in extreme situations like Cyprus this should be executed.
Just my little rant and views.

It was a great game. I kinda missed it thought as I am now on a mac OSX and can't play it. For anyone that has no clue http://www.littlefighter.com/ |

Once again the foundation making us proud that they are part of the community. So apparently the redesign they already had for it, is getting another redesign... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u3YxPfH4m9QI found that video on reddit, I don't understand. If they already redesigned it why do it again? Shouldn't they be focused on helping the bitcoin community? This is like pretending, they are actually doing work and instead they just re-hiring people to redo websites, that were already redone. |

One thing that annoys me so much about bitcoin-qt is that I miss incoming transactions unless I am actively waiting for them. I would like some notification center alerts added to bitcoin-qt. I am not going to add a bounty cause that makes for bad code quality and hopefully this would be something they would merge into the master branch. I know this very OS specific.

http://techcrunch.com/2013/05/27/60-investors-band-together-to-form-bitangels-the-first-multi-city-angel-network-incubator-for-bitcoin-startups/Nobody’s quite sure when (and if) Bitcoin will go mainstream, but plenty of investors and entrepreneurs have begun to place their bets. The snowball is off and rolling.
If this post doesn’t make it clear why venture capitalists are loving this emerging market, just in the last two months, we’ve learned that Winklevosses love Bitcoin, Liberty City Ventures launched its own “Digital Currency Fund,” San Mateo-based accelerator Boost.vc is dedicating half of its next batch to Bitcoin startups, Chris Dixon is in and Fred Wilson finally made his first investment.
This is going to be a powerful force, in a good way, but I wish it decentralized and more competition to each other.

Please, I want this feature goddamnit.  I can't imagine what would happen if my account were compromised. This is about the last non-trivial site that I don't have 2FA on, and yet it has the most potential of causing damage to me and everyone. Agreed, this is too important of a feature not to be implemented, if certain people like yourself had your accounts compromised it would be a disaster. No theymos finds it easier to implement ABP blocking functions more important, you know to protect ads that slander businesses, then protecting the users. |

There's nothing I can change in the forum's HTML to stop this. This isn't a side-effect of my anti-ABP code.
Yes, it is. You're the one who started the arms race with EasyList. If you removed your anti-ABP code, easylist maintainers wouldn't have to go through such extreme measures. This whole arms race is retarded, and you're turning it into a game of "why are you hitting yourself". I would just logout everyone who was detected using adblock. Try to use the forum while logged out if you prefer to keep ABP on  Yes lets censor everyone, I think theymos should let the ABP block the ads, and just let it be. Theymos is sitting on a lot of money for the forum I don't see the problem. Plus who cares if butterfly labs or ripples is a scam which both are not. So he lets false ads, why can't we have the power to block those? |

Yes, I'm sure you'll keep telling yourself that  I do agree with you though, I've never understood this fanatical hatred of smut. I have no problem with smut. I love me some internet porn. I have a problem with this piece-of-shit, woman hating sociopath trying to act like a big man when in reality he is just some worthless pussy with no friends or lovers. +1000000 Thank you for this as I agree. People with no friends and lovers will always be miserable cause they are angry at society cause they will always feel cheated out of what they don't have. I feel quite sad for this JohnRambo and everyone else should too. Cause he will never experience true love which is better than any drug or sex on the planet. What a joke. So you define happiness as having a lover? I think you've been watching too many Disney movies, boy. Happiness can only come from within, from the soul. That is REAL happiness, spiritual happiness. LMAO no I found happiness in my soul a long time ago, and now I share my happiness with a girl that is more beautiful and more fun than any 3D thing could give me. I don't need some kinky weird sexual relationship with some not real thing. See you got burned and I understand in JR high school I got burned bad too, but dude it passes, just like gas it passes. Dude let me tell you I was the cubby kid in JR high school and after my first girl dumped me, I hit the weights and gym. And after a year or two the girls were swarming me. You can do the same dude, just channel that angry for that girl into health workouts and your golden. |

After interacting with znort987 on IRC I'd advise being very careful in using this software double check any results that you get from it.
I pointed out that he was making some (theoretically and practically) minorly incorrect claims about the analysis this tool produced and his response was confused first failing on technically grounds and then after the technical misunderstand was made clear he became uncivil— calling me and other folks names and such— quite bizarre. While its obviously useful, it's written by someone who apparently hasn't done your thinking for you, so you need to think for yourself.
LMAO more censorship by the Core Dev team, first it was transaction now it is other people software. I mean when does it stop. Honestly power hungry much? So dumb, you, Gavin, and Luke Jr. I really hope another programming team, just takes over and we can be done, this what no competition does in a free market. Creates egotistical, self centered, power hungry people. Know what instead of policing the forum and irc actually make the full node work with a big blockchain instead of putting a band-aid on it. Never saw more power hungry people in my life. Nothing decentralized about bitcoins, it completely centralized with people like this running behind it. |

So your going to go around and spread lies, thanks for doing nothing to the community and spreading lies, THANK YOU SIR.
No, that's what YOU are doing. Prove it, I been backing my facts up with citations. You have yet to do that. Sadly the more you say it will not make it more true.
2) Bitcoin is a tiny piece of the cryptocurrency puzzle, but it's the most visible one right now.
A tiny piece? I love how people are trying to pump and dump alts so hard, a tiny piece LOL finshaggy go do research then come back. Bitcoin made crypto-currencies possible without them no alt coins would be here. I know that bitcoin is the biggest one, and I've been hearing about it since the silk road started. But discrediting alt coins because of bitcoins, is like discrediting bitcoins because of e cash. It's just stupid of you to do. Bitcoin create altcoins, without Bitcoins there be no altcoins. Altcoins are directly tied to bitcoins. E-cash in no form was anything like Bitcoins. Altcoins are exactly like bitcoins, they use the same code base and just change two variables. Newbies shouldn't be preaching bitcoins or altcoins, cause you have no idea, don't hurt the community which are about to do. |

LOL at this thread one person can't do math, and the other is a just a copy-cat. Your both dumb and stupid, and second your wasting your coins on gambling and acting like you got ripped off. It is GAMBLING who you think runs those things, smart business people NO 12yrs that think they can make a profit until they are wiped clean by a bug. NO REFUNDS WILL BE ISSUED FOR LATE PAYMENTS
I thought I was a greedy person you make me look like the most charitable person on this forum LOL Both idiots, this forum is turning into the dumb and dumber. |
