"minimal use"

That's the part I have problems with. More places should start accepting bitcoins. That way more people will start buying them. Popularity, usage, etc.

Rules are rules. I guess it's to keep out the spammers.

Hello folks. This is Squik. I've been into bitcoins since a couple weeks before the 2011 crash. I've been lurking these forums all week, so once I can post there, you'll see me in the Mt.Gox tracking thread mostly.
