Unfortunately its not a PURE FAIL since it hasnt even started.
You just announced it and everyone is already mocking you. You can't even make us think it will be good with your sales pitch for it, not to mention the countless real-world problems you will push up against when you launch. I would call that PURE FAIL.  Find another project, this one isn't going to work. |

Your vague and nonsensical reasons about why you need a new coin to make it user friendly shows you either have no clue or you simply are looking to get rich quick.
To defend TheGoober for a moment, I am almost certain that he has no clue. BTW, quoted text goes above your comment ^ like this. A decentralized alt currency that is closed source is not really decentralized. |

2. The mining algorithm is CPU-friendly for now. GPU will be available at a later stage. Also mining is done only through the official client at least for the initial stages.
What!?! You are going to change the algorithm after you launch? Why?! Just write it correctly before you launch. How is this different from Bitcoin? How is this any different from Solidcoin? Does Realcoin have any advantages over either of those other two? You keep saying "average internet user" and "user friendly" but I do not see anything backing this up? How is it user-friendly? Instead of average, do you really mean "naive chumps"? That is what it sounds like to me. You still have not said anything that demonstrates any value for this new coin over the dozen of other alt-chain attempts. Except you have wasted/spent $10,000 developing it. |

https://plus.google.com/u/0/106907500056938408759/posts/2PQQLPYkdcaHe asked these questions: 1. What does Bitcoin mean to you? 2. What do you think of Bitcoin's potential future? 3. What are the best uses of Bitcoin that you've seen so far? 4. Do you think Bitcoin will become a mainstream currency or investment asset type or both? Why/why not? 5. Does Bitcoin need to be improved? How? 6. Any other thoughts on Bitcoin? Maybe we can give him some answers?

I got my BTC in my Bitcoinica account. Thanks Zhou! I have opened a position already. If anyone wants a hot trading tip: I am going long now, so you should probably do the opposite  And.... i am now down $0.91... haha |

Tradehill, have you been able to withdraw you funds from your accounts that have been frozen?
If not, are you still solvent?

I hope that the fact that the search box only searches within the current post/subforum isn't lost on anyone. So to search the entire forum make sure you're at "home" or otherwise not in any post/subforum.
I had no idea. Thanks! |

Flaxceed is just scared because he knows he is losing business, and his customers are realizing how much of a liability it is to conduct illegal activities in public view. I urge other forum members to be cautious about endorsing or giving testimonials about this "service". Several posters listed in the thread below have likely incriminated themselves in their legal jurisdiction. If you are engaging in illegal activity, you should not discuss it in a public forum. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=57379.msg683315#msg683315Stay safe guys. |

This is the most inane, retarded, and meaningless thread I have seen in weeks.

What experience do I have ordering them? I merely offered up some easily available information as to the US legality of two items that flaxceed is supplying.
I have been waiting to post a review for a bit because I wasn't sure how to proceed. I really wanted to give flaxceed a rave review, because he is a real, friendly and non-scammy merchant, but there are a few issues I have.
I ordered some Clenbuterol. While the transaction went smoothly and I did receive my goods (always a surprise with bitcoin), it was sent requiring signature confirmation, which is by no means the correct way to ship substances that fall in a legal grey area. I ended up having to pick up the package from the post office, against my better judgement. If this was silkroad or through escrow, I wouldn't have risked picking it up, as that error is on the sender.
As far as the actual package, it was very discrete and unremarkable and would raise no suspicions upon a casual inspection...but how was I to know that before I went in to the PO? I could have been walking in to pick up a bag spilling out pills on the counter.
Regarding the product, it seems to be what it says it is, as I am trembling like a leaf, but the box claims it is from a 'labaratory'(sic) in Switzerland. A quick look at their website and a google search of the lab's name brings up nothing to support the validity of the claim. Searching around some other sites, it appears it is from an underground lab in Thailand. There is no quality control or assay information available, but it is apparent that this drug from this manufacturer is very widely used, so I decided to trust it.
Overall, a success, but the signature confirmation thing has to go.
Regardless of whether it endangers the forum, you shouldn't publicly post that you are attaining drugs in this way if you aren't prepared for this information to be public. |

Sildafinil citrate (Viagra), which is on your list there as controlled, is not scheduled or controlled in the US. It is legal to possess without a valid medical prescription.
Clenbuterol is not controlled or scheduled by the US either, and with no approved medical use, you are free to import as much of it as you want and do what you will with it.
I am under the impression that it would still be illegal for me (as a US citizen) to sell sildafinil to my neighbor (without being a pharmacist), am I mistaken? I think you are right about Clenbuterol. The fact that he is advertising it as a weight-loss aid and describing it as "amphetaminey" might raise some flags however. Seeing as how you have experience ordering these things, I'll trust your judgement. |

It's against the rules to make trades that are not legal in both the seller's and buyer's countries. I'm not interested in figuring out legality of trades or investigating locations of members, though, so I only delete really obvious stuff. Is this forum hosted/managed by people in the US? I assumed it was, if not maybe this isn't as much of a problem.
It's in Japan. Fair enough. So long as you and the other mods don't think this is a liability. I'd hate to see this forum disappear! |

You clearly do not understand freedom of speech, because this does not qualify. Flaxceed isn't just "discussing", he is offering, advertising, and selling.
The forum is clearly facilitating illegal drug transactions into the US right now. This is grounds to be seized/shut down.

You are right- Winstrol is controlled substance, not a scheduled substance. Edited OP to reflect this.
I don't have any problem with flaxceed, or people who want to order drugs illegally to their jurisdictions. That's between them and their respective governments.
Fundamentally, as far as I can tell, flaxceed has never made a legal sale to his (at least two) US customers. Without licenses it is not legal to sell the majority of his products in the US. I am no legal expert, but I do not see any products he is offering that are clearly legal for him to sell to US customers. Do you? Some of them are controlled substances, which if he has ever distributed these to US customers over this forum, the DEA could seize BitCoinTalk.
I think it is putting the forum in legal jeopardy. It hurts the reputation and credibility of information in this forum if buying dick pills (or gel) is only two clicks away from announcements of legitimate bitcoin businesses.
This is the central hub of bitcoin communication, and it would be a shame to see it get shut down over something so frivolous.
Randy, do/did you live outside of the US when you received products from flaxceed? If not, what is your interpretation of how what you did was legal under US law?

The story about some alleged evil doer who managed to withdraw money from mybitcoin using a double spending method - it was all bullshit and we can prove it today.
I have been monitoring some of the addresses owned by mybitcoin, to which I used to transfer my money.
Some of them still had some coins, even after they allowed people to withdraw the "remaining" 49%.
That was weird already back then...
But recently they started spending the remaining 51%.
Check out these two - both addresses used to belong to my old mybitcoin wallet:

Interesting, hmm?
Nice sleuthing! |
