well this is bad news, I bought a bit of scrypt hashing just to try them out but I guess I'll be trying to sell it now and get the hell out of there, so far I've found Genesis Cloud Mining to be the most trustworthy and it's easy to see why for me at least. Looks like there's going to be another purge soon of scammy Bitcoin companies because Cryptsy has been having trouble as well hasn't it?

What is your opinion on gamergate whether it is for ethics and transparency that is misunderstood really an issue of corrupt journalism, or a feminist issue that has split the cauldron of gaming in a sense all over the place. (Or perhaps something else like purposeful misdirection) I think it's a total clusterfuck of all three, I think the culprits largely responsible for this are the matriarchs ( more and more I refuse to call these women feminists because they are an insult to real feminism ) and we've always known that gaming journalism are corrupt and games developers are about as out of touch as westminister politicians. What these people have done is backlash against a few gamers who are more than sick of their bullshit and the gamers involved in this whole thing have allowed themselves to be completely baited and look like morons to any outsider. By the way, I'm actually glad you made a thread like this OP because then people won't have an excuse to spam this bullshit all over the forums in an attempt to make themselves look even more stupid than they already are. I hate a lot of gaming journalists, never pay a single bit of attention to them and this kind of crap is exactly why, you can see the true contempt that they and major games developers have for particularly the PC gaming community. The use of sex in any form of media has always been around and lets face it and it's not going to change and frankly I find the way women act as if they don't do the same to the sexes they're attracted to is patronising.

Direct Democracy ftw, wish we had their system over here ![Sad](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/sad.gif) we could have stopped Iraq at least partially.

Yeah, I'm staying the fuck away from the lending section, as for the long term economy I agree, I want to make myself a properly established business, I knew it was going to be hard, but just not that it would be suicidal lol.
|
|
|
I suppose I could try lending money again, but it's so damn scammy even more so than with Bitcoin in general, going to have a think about that one.
|
|
|
Yeah, stupidly hard and I've been here for two years.
|
|
|
gah, the spam! Lol! ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif) As it turns out, I have some cloud hashing power I hadn't thought of this until now but I could probably sell some altcoins or something, I'm just trying to think of ways to get things going, sick of sitting around having nothing happen really.

For people like me it seems like the only way to get trust frankly, people are understandably so scared of being scammed they won't even think about taking a risk with a startup even when they're producing physical goods, even then I'd still escrow if people wanted to buy from me to be on the safe side.

Well balls ![Sad](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/sad.gif) I guess I'll change that then, looking at what other scammers have done I can see why people would think that. The reason being is because there aren't really other options for users like me beyond basically sending free stuff for a reviewer to look at but that pretty much means I'll end up losing valuable silver in return for the possibility of sales. This was awhile ago but I already had some twat who tried to scam me out of my Jewellery by sending it to his address so aside from escrowing I'm not that sure about what I can do.

I've heard discussions on here about mesh networks and using radio signals etc. for the internet, but all of this is pretty experimental, you'll have to do some research on it, to be frank, I'd say food and electricity would be the priority here lol ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif) maybe you could use the electricity somehow to get a satellite connection, sell it off somehow?

So you guys may have noticed that I'm making a push now to produce more stuff and earn money. One thing I've noticed is a lot of old time users around here offer up free escrow services and I've been wondering while I work on my stuff if I shouldn't do the same since I've been around since 2012. Do you think this is a good idea? Let me know, obviously as I'm just throwing this idea around I just want to try out a few small transactions and see how things go but I figure if I get my trust rating up people would be more inclined to trade with me with the other stuff I have for sale too.
If you're interested in giving me a small transaction to take care of PM me or post in the thread.
I only have one real incident to my name as you'll see from some negative trust I've given out and it turned out the guy was a massive scammer who conned me and others along time ago out of money from BTCJam.

She's going to be so impressed that you've bought a USED Porsche and a Porsche at that ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) How about instead of pissing away all that money you spend it on a really nice holiday instead? Or invest that money since we're on a Bitcoin forum and make millions then spoil her.

Those arrogant fuckers! Here's an explanation of the actual law, basically it's like a VAT on how much bandwidth you use, so on top of paying ISPs who are taxed the consumers are also directly making payments to the government. http://rt.com/news/198032-hungary-internet-tax-protest/Now this was an extremely unpleasant thing to wake up to in the morning, I'm sure anonymous will have something to say about this.

In theory, it's easy, but we've yet to see a massive attempt by a government to actually confiscate Bitcoin and I'm not talking about taking down a couple of drug markets, all you'd have to do is either take it on a USB or rent a VPS in a certain country you're going to and then send it over and retrieve it once you cross the border.

Sounds like they're basically going to fork it like others have and build their own stuff and as usual the journalists posting it completely misunderstood what he said lol ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif)

I think there are noobs on here making completely incoherent topics just to increase the post count :S

Please stop spreading this gamersgate bullshit throughout the internet to those of us who are intelligent enough to not give a shit about such petty, moronic arguments.
. Matriarchs like Anita accused games of objectifying women and other women like her push the easily manipulated major games developers to do something about it with political pressure
. SOME gamers respond with rage and death threats, Anita and several other gaming journalists respond by deciding that all gamers are misogynists and irrelevant
Meanwhile the rest of us are simply trying to have fun in life and play games and while the two sides are having a fight it's like you just threw something incredibly disgusting all over us by accident. Go fuck yourselves, nothing more annoying than two sides trying to drag bystanders into a fight that have decided they are completely right about everything and anyone who doesn't side with them is the enemy.
By the way, thanks for ruining what was left of the Dragon Age series, we need more indie developers to get rid of these horrid games publishers, I'll be throwing my support behind games like Elite: Dangerous and The Witcher 3.
