I'm just holding out for BTC pseudo-anonymous sperm bank donations.

Then we'd see new sockpuppets on the forum called "SpermExchanger" and "Tricks".

Tricks are for kids.

Drudgeboat,

If you have downloaded the Bitcoin client, I will send you .01 BTC to get you started.  It's not much, but it's something Smiley

Just post your Bitcoin address and it will be on its way.

I'm in the middle of a split, so I guess it isn't the best question for me, but she hated it.  It was something she didn't understand, and still doesn't.  Although I paid off our bills more than a few times with bitcoin funds, she still doesn't have faith in me investing into hardware.

At least there's a good chance that you'll have the sweet revenge of becoming filthy rich   Cheesy

How about .5 BTC for a month at minimum?  By "at minimum," I mean that it will stay in my signature for a minimum of 1 month, though it may stay in my signature for many months or indefinitely.

I was referring to your marketing technique (i.e. who wants to be like the guy in Limitless?) which would imply a miracle.

Now, some of us asked for research to support your claims about these drugs.  You provided some links to a few unqualified people talking about the drug on a forum as if this was your definition of research, then told us to go do our own research about your product.  Why can't you just provide documented research supporting your claims?

You are coming off as extremely arrogant as if you are saying, "Well, obviously my products are superior, and it's your fault if you can't see that.  It's not my responsibility to prove to you how awesome these are."

If you are a businessman, then you could use some real work in the PR department.  It's quite obvious why you are receiving the feedback you are getting.
2651  Economy / Goods / Re: Who Wants to be Awesome Like the guy in Limitless? (AWESOME DRUGS) on: June 10, 2012, 01:27:41 AM
The vitamins and minerals I take are not miracle drugs, they are part of my diet.  I eat a rather strict diet comprised of foods that do not contain a lot of things like calcium or vitamin C, so the vitamins and minerals I consume help me form a well-rounded diet.

You're talking about apples and oranges here.  I'm not going to get scurvy or osteoporosis if I don't consume enough of the drugs you sell.  I know exactly what's in the supplement I take, who produces it (I've spoken with the owner of the company that manufactures it), and where I can file a complaint if I were to receive a crappy product.  They were also recommended by a certified nutritionist (i.e. my trainer, and actually he holds about a half-dozen certifications) which I presume you are not.

They're usually most effective when taken in stacks. No, the above medecines are not pre-stacked you need to make your own or do research and use those.

You are saying, you are supposed to mix them for best effect? Isn't that against the law of drugs?

And, at the above: Set all of the yelling at each other aside, providing evidence that what you are selling is safe, and what they do will probably help your sales. And, even if someone is being a complete dick, if you are trying to sell something keep some level of professionalism, or potential customers will be repelled away. Not that I was looking at really buying these, but if I was, I would seriously reconsider buying from you based on your responses.

Provide some information for the consumer besides the "word of the drug dealer" and this may turn out a lot better for you. Whats the worst that could happen by giving some info from an outside party?

This is closed. You're all idiots. 
Look at the links I posted, 1. 2, these are supplements anyone that works out rather than sits at their computer trolling would know that mixing supplements are not at all against the law of "drugs" infact a lot of the "drugs" you ingest on a daily basis are a mixture of different drugs condensed into one pill.

Funny you should mention this considering I spent 4+ years training directly under a former Mr. Universe/Mr. USA/etc.  He would advise about the potential for addiction of these supplements, and that supplements in general should not be regarded as some hyped-up miracle enhancer.  Actually, if people buy cognitive/physique enhancing supplements, they should only be consumed if the individual intends to work much harder than they did prior to consuming supplements.  The reason for this is that your body/mind will become dependent on the effects of the supplements, and once those supplements are gone, you will actually revert to a state of increased cognitive/physical dysfunction.

By the way, I'm 185 lbs with 6% bodyfat and I only take a multi-vitamin/mineral supplement each day.  And, I've found that meditation provides all the cognitive enhancement I'll ever need.  Ignorant prick.

The evening usually goes something like this:

"God, why is it so hot in your room?"  

*blab blab blab*  

"Bit-what?  You mean it's imaginary?"  

*blab blab blab*

"You're such a dork*

*shows her gold and silver purchased with BTC*

*her jaw drops...and stays that way for the next 10-15 minutes*

Here's what I don't like about your posts, LP -- you talk to us like were moronic infants when in reality we're your future employers.  

You're (mostly) marketing to people whose careers depend upon critical thinking.  We get it.  You want BTC and you want it fast.  So please, cut the hype bullshit and provide links to research data supporting the efficacy of these drugs.

Even the guy selling Burmese honey had pages and pages of links and information in his marketplace thread.  And that was friggin' honey!
2657  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Mt.Gox AML/KYC Process Explained on: June 08, 2012, 09:03:53 PM

@The Joint, I'm aware that there have been a lot of complaints recently about how customer service has been handled by us. I'm only authorised to talk about the activities of my division at the moment (AML/KYC), but I'll see if I can get an answer for you on each of your points. I should warn you ahead of time that I probably won't be allowed to discuss specific staff salaries for obvious reasons, but I'll see.

Sorry that I can't give better answers than this right now, but please be patient and I'll see what I can do.


Thanks, I appreciate it.

By the way, the reason I am asking about wage/salary in addition to asking about the number of employed service representatives is so that I can get some idea of whether or not Mt. Gox can afford to hire additional personnel.  I would be more interested in the average salary/wage paid to its customer service reps than specific salaries/wages.
2658  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Coinabul - Processing on: June 08, 2012, 01:06:08 PM
I made an order with Coinabul.com approximately 11 days ago and it is still in "processing" stage.

After contacting Jon, he has assured me that they will ship my order however they do not have a definite date as yet.

Since ordering the BTC price has risen more than 10% and I still don't have my order.

Anyone else have any experiences with coinabul.com?

Thanks,

Peri

This is typical.  From my experience, everything should turn out alright.  I've had an order processing now since 5/21.  But, I've placed one prior order and it was processing for about 3 weeks until it eventually shipped.  Everything showed up in great condition and packaging.
2659  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Mt.Gox AML/KYC Process Explained on: June 08, 2012, 07:49:21 AM
This AML/KYC "Process explained" is nice to see.  However, this explanation does absolutely nothing to address customer service issues.

There have been literally dozens and dozens of complaints related to customer service, particularly with regards to frozen funds.  Usually, these complaints are of the following nature:  They either 1) scrutinize Mt. Gox for their lack of clarity of specificity in responses to customer complaints,  2) scrutinize Mt. Gox for their failure to respond in a timely manner, or 3) scrutinize Mt. Gox for relaying false information, usually pertaining to the amount of time in which the issue is assumed to be resolved.

I have a few questions:

1)  What is the exact number of customer service representatives employed by Mt. Gox?  

2)  What are the exact minimum and exact maximum number of customer service representatives working and available for support at any given time?  

3)  What is the average salary/wage paid to each customer service representative employed by Mt. Gox?

4)  How many hours does a typical customer service representative employed by Mt. Gox work each week?

5)  In what manner does Mt. Gox hold itself accountable for relaying false information to its customers?  I'm thinking of Inaba's recent- and ongoing thread as I type this question.  It appears that it has been a theme for Mt. Gox to respond to such accusations indirectly, for example by citing AML/KYC regulations, and not directly by responding to the specific accusation.

6)  Is Mt. Gox willing to implement a 'guarantee' policy related to statements made to its customers (e.g. a time-frame wherein Mt. Gox has indicated that it will release frozen funds, wherein a transfer of funds will take place, etc.)?
