Think before posting.

that's not going to do it.

most ideas regarding the bitcoin technology are usually either met with "keep your stinking hands of my bitcoins" or "go fork the blockchain and 'fork' yourself" to have your idea implemented.

this forum is about speculation instead of technology now and the attitude is very similar to other "investment" forums.
which is no surprise, as bitcoin is about speculation right now, as there is no economy accepting bitcoin to speak of.

Actually there is and its growing every single day

Theres many bitcoin forums you can choose one. Heres mine

www.tweetforum.com/bitcoin

twitter.com/bitcoinforum

I built a forum that connects to twitter and sends the users updates on every post, so they are always connected. I love this forum though , it's not perfect, but it really gets the job done.

I'm all for calling them credits. Thats probably the most appropriate name. "Bitcoin Credits"

Looking forward to working with everyone whos interested in this project. Don't be scared. And if your not into the porn industry, don't worry about it. Let us handle that.  This environment will be very clean, and professional, and I will not ask any of the people working on this to participate in the porn related promos/scouting/ or anything to do with sex. Just had to get that out of the way 1st and foremost.  Cool

What? That looks like the best part of the project!  Cheesy

Seriously, I think this has a great potential. I am a programmer but not a web programmer. If I was I would love to join your team.
Do you have any security credentials? Or anything to contribute to the team? Right now there is no solid members so positions are still avail for anyone who has the skills necessary. I have gotten many pm's of people who want to take over all the jobs, but like I said my aim is quality. It IS going to be an expensive site, that will hopefully gain respect from the entire adult industry. I know if everyone is focusing on just one job, that job will be done 1000x better, thus making more bitcoins for everyone on the team ! I worry about the long run, not short term money which is what 90% of people are after.

Very nice domain sir, will be talking to you in the future.

Everyone on the team will be QA, so please no PM's about being a QA , (Quality Assurance, aka Bug Testing.)

My plan was making an ewallet, the customer signs up with an email address and password. They get a designated wallet with a bitcoin address that they send to (us), and then they pay in "Credits". We actually don't even need to pay the girls in bitcoins if we don't want to,  we can just pay them in cash at the end of their work day, they convert the credits to $$$. Obviously we would need a starting bankroll for that so at the start that might not be possible. But thats where I wana go eventually. The credit's system (similar to what you see at live jasmine) might be the best approach, esp if these girls don't even know what bitcoins are lol.  
Credits was already something I kind of had in mind, an ewallet very secure system, even maybe using some cash to get a trusted third party security system put in that the public already knows.  That line of thinking is good.    

Did not see your other sites, you do good work, I do hope I get spare time.   I guess though is there anything you were having in mind logo or avatar wise?   Creative and graphic stuff I am able to do at odd hours so toss out anything you already had brainstormed and I could think on that (PM if you don't want to put this out there)
Bro this domain is good enough to bring regular $$ to. Bitcams.com . EWallets with multiple payment processors would be nice Smiley . I will P.M you, when I have a team ready we will have a meeting via ooovooo or skype, so we can get priorities straightened, and make everything official. Do you have any design work you can show me?

And thank you bro, you are the first person that has said that in these forums. I have been trying to tell people about my work, and sometimes with all the spam that goes around on the internet, people are so quick to dismiss it. I am one of those people that wishes spam would just go away, but its one of those necessary evils... Just have to fight through it, and if your a good person people will see it.

If I had the time, you don't know how much I could possibly help in a few aspects.  Fucking bills.  I thought you were domain whoring at me in a PM, which I get a lot, makes no sense to me, the value of a domain is only as good as it's content imo, so sorry if I did not reply there.

You make a good offer and I hope anyone who does sees this and is able to help, do so.  Having a team behind a site instead of every man for themselves will not only help everyone personally quicker of course, but in the long run make for a quality site, something lacking in the Bitcoin community.  I am not a huge fan of the retro-Fortunecity.com layout of most peoples pages.

If you need people to write custom scripts, programs, there are web sites that do commission jobs.  I think that would be the best route.   Graphics could be commission, pay by BTC, even put in the post how much you would be willing to pay for a logo, graphic, banner, icon, etc.

By the way, if you were able to pay me in advance for a month where I could quit my nine to five, I could help with graphics, design, light code, e-commerce experience, and I also could get some girls and explain it to them.  This would of course have to be backed by lawyers to guarantee at the least the initial girls would not be affected by market price.  If I had the time, good luck, if you could get this going it can be a nice thing Smiley

Everyones working for free right now bro. I am in the same boat as you are.

tweetforum took me 14 months to come up with, so right now the only choice I have is mine for bitcoins, and work my ass off at my day job (fixing computers) so I can hopefully catch up on bills. I can't offer any payments right now, and if i could I wouldn't be here asking for help. I would have already done the things you said above if I had the money, but I don't. I realize that even if I did have the money, it's still wouldn't be as good as if it were a team oriented project where everyone has a real stake.

My plan was making an ewallet, the customer signs up with an email address and password. They get a designated wallet with a bitcoin address that they send to (us), and then they pay in "Credits". We actually don't even need to pay the girls in bitcoins if we don't want to,  we can just pay them in cash at the end of their work day, they convert the credits to $$$.

2372  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Do actions speak louder than words? on: June 22, 2011, 07:28:04 AM

I think that the saying "Actions speak louder than words" is relevant in our situation.  

If my actions are wrong, and I can justify them with words... does that make my actions right?  What about vice-versa?

Words represent things that are used to sway opinions... twist facts... quite often used as political tool, or weapons and in the media... It just seems to me that words... as powerful as they are.. just sometimes can't be trusted.

Actions represent what really happens, and what is going to happen... right now, to me, in this very moment, actions are truth.

I will continue to trade on Mt.Gox.. however. I do not plan to hold a larger amount of money on their system than I can either "afford to lose" or "withdraw all at once".

I think... for your hard work.. and assuming very little collateral damage, you deserve AT LEAST that Mt.Gox.

What do you think?  Am I Crazy?  ... don't answer that.. lol

I have read this somewhere, and I will repeat it. This will all be forgotten in 2 weeks once MTGOX is back up and running.
2373  Bitcoin / Project Development / Bitcams on: June 22, 2011, 06:41:06 AM
I am currently debating on whether or not to give this project to someone who is more in tune with the adult industry than I am. If you would like this idea please PM me to inquire about it.
2374  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Next difficulty in approx 3 days?? 1,240,416 on: June 22, 2011, 06:29:00 AM
You can predict it. Just look at how many blocks to go, and divide by the current blocks/hour rate.  That will give you a pretty accurate idea.  Right now it's looking like Friday morning.

It will be another doozy.


How exciting!!!! Less BTC, more competition, less trading, less credibility, lower exchange rate!? What could go wrong?

Smiley

What does it take to make the difficulty lower?
It will never get lower.

Why less credibility if its harder to get?  If history has proven anything it is that people usually want what they CAN'T get. And who the hell said the exchange rate will be lower? It might dip for a little bit after MTGOX comes back in, but in 2 weeks everything will be back to normal with bitcoins trading at about $30 a coin.

Where did you get your crystal ball? I would like to purchase one please.
The same place 90% of the people in this forum got theirs lol.



Edit: This isn't meant to demoralize my postings, or anyone elses for the matter. It's meant to show that the only real thing that we have, is that bitcoins are here to stay forever. Whether the market crashes in 2 weeks or not, whether difficulty rises or drops, whether the economy grows or not, bitcoins will still be here. Everyone reading this post right now needs to go into this with that kind of mentality, that bitcoins are never going to disappear, and I promise you everyone reading this message right now will be a winner in the future. But it's not going to happen with pump and dump tactics, and smear manipulation.
2375  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Out in the wild - people think Bitcoins will drop to 0 on: June 22, 2011, 06:25:28 AM
There are a lot of factors in play, yes, but we need to keep in mind that there's no direct pull on a BTC buyer to pay more because Joe Miner only makes 2 BTC/day today, whereas he made 4 BTC/day last week.

The SAME NUMBER OF BITCOINS are produced every week, regardless of how many miners participate in the bounty.

Print that out, put it on your wall. It cuts to the essence of this "difficulty" controversy.

Here me out I'm going to use your logic here.

If the same amount of bitcoins are made every week, but the number of miners increases then what happens? We form  DEMAND for a finite resource, thus making the coins even more valuable.  If people want it, it doesn't matter what me or anyone else says, the price is going up. Maybe the demand will very well be sparked by the miners themselves, but demand is demand nonetheless.
2376  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: POLL: What exchange site will you be using? on: June 22, 2011, 05:45:29 AM
going to tradehill isnt going to solve anything unless they are actvally fixing there security issues as well

i'll stick with mtgox cause i know they will come out of this much stronger and more secure then before
I agree with you on this, the new MTGOX will be a truly tested, and vetted system. Confidence will only grow higher when they come back.

I am so happy that Norton is on our side. This is great news, as I think Norton and Symantec provide the best security out right now.

How do you know that this guy doesn't have the money to pay the team.

Im just a poor homeless kid leaving out of my car
Maybe I should start reading the ops posts a little more clearly  Lips sealed. Missed that line, however he's got a good idea, he should pursue this idea as hard as he can. If he has no money, make a pro presentation on power point, get on business related forums where you can get investors, get out there and meet people to get this funding that you need to make this succeed.

IMO I think the domain name is terrible quality, but the idea itself works.
