I don't think anyone has a problem here with the sharing of ideas and information Atlas.
It's more like going to the doctor's office and telling him he should try what you say because "sometimes you can be right". Why even go to a doctor then? Just do it yourself. Start your own labs and experiment on animals and poor people like we've been doing for thousands of years. When you catch up with the world of medicine and can actually argue a valid point, you might be surprised that people actually ask you questions.
There is an Indian civilian who found a much better way to perform vasectomies that involves a rubber chemical compound injected directly into your nuts. Is it ready for the world? Probably not. Has it passed every safety test in the world? Probably not. Does absolutely everyone believe in it hands-down? Probably not. Does it work? Yes. That's enough to get the ball rolling in his direction.
Your problem is you have nothing to roll the ball with. Gain some weight and you'll make a bigger splash. You've finally begun to work on the first major hurdle-- humility. Mistakes are essential to growth and experience, but without humility, no one will give you the second chance to prove you learned. Good job.
As for some of the ideas that come out of your mouth (like woolong device where you thought every merchant in the world would have a USB port, when it's hard enough to get them to even use the same credit card standards) I'm sure on some planet your way of thinking might work, but your major flaw is that this is earth.
TL;DR: Never be afraid to share ideas. Be afraid of not learning from them.

Your assistance with Litecoins progress alone should have been enough to remove that label.
Heh, Luke-jr would prefer that all litecoiners be labeled scammers ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) Of course he does. Does that surprise you? He’s a fraternity elitist scumbag that thinks only he has the correct answer to all of life’s problems and a cold calculating manipulator that will use everything at this disposal to get his own way. I wouldn’t trust him to park my car if he was working as a valet. His Git hub profile pic makes him look like hes twacked on on meth! Well that's nothing, my everything-profile-pic makes me look like I'm hopped up on goofballs.

Why do people even call it "dubstep" when it's been "breakbeats" for like 20 years? ![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif)

Here's another good one I just received: Hi, I'm looking for a refund for bitscalper. My account was *. I'm not sure the total amount I deposited, Currently there was about 81btc in my account and 90 in pending withdrawals. About 21btc of that was interest. I am not looking to get the interest back, just what I put in.
Thanks
Yeah Terry, you piece of shit, where's my refund for that bad bottle of coke that restaurant gave me 10 years ago? WHY U NO GIVE REFUND TO EVERYONE FOR EVERY SCAM EVER?

Sorry about the wait guys, I had to sit my ban out for being myself.
I just wanted to say this again (if I haven't posted it here already). The magazine is done. 100%. There is nothing else to add (although something else might get added at the last minute, you know how it is..)
What we're waiting on right now is standards compliance with printers, designers, advertisers and writers. This is the curse of doing things with a large group, but it's a growing pain that will only affect the first issue. Everyone's patience is admirable and I will never forget it. That said, we'll never let you forget it with how hard we'll be pumping these puppies out at mostly our own expense.
I've been sick (and annoyed by matters best dropped at this point) but overall our process for creating future issues was the biggest hurdle so far and frankly speaking every issue will be better then the one before it.
Hang in there guys. I would rather put a bullet through my head than walk away from this project. This is what I was born for (showing Bruce how to do it right).

OK.. after re-reading my post, I think I put the stress in the wrong place. What I should have said was "Anything more complicated than SWIPE & PIN is a non starter" ..
Couldn't agree more. Bitcoin is about as interesting to the average consumer as the type of engine in a car to the average driver.

BTC-Hospital Saves MeThat guy on the bitcoin forums literally saved me from crippling injury in a few years time. Had I not spoke to him, it may have been too late before I got it checked out. I always kept putting it off since I'm so busy and it didn't seem like a big deal. Weaver saved my soul once, can I start a thread for the Church of Bitcoin?

I'm going to have my entire BTC100 pledge honored without spending a bitcent. ![Cool](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cool.gif) 1BTC1oo1J3MEt5SFj74ZBcF2Mk97Aah4ac lol. Fix your avatar. Download it and upload it.

Ordered 3 copies.
Hope to see the first one in the mail very soon!
Don't hold your breath. I ordered some copies as well, but I'm not expecting them until the middle of march. Harray! Sanity! ^_^ Edit: We've got the general process down to 2 weeks automated now. This first issue has just been nuts. I hope not all of it is just nuts. Frankly, I would guess the majority of this forum is into just boobs. Ugh. Funny you mention that...a lot of our supporters seem to love boobs a little too much. It's been a battle to keep this magazine sexually neutral.

lol that worked. No clue why the discrepancy.
See, that fucking avatar is way better than Atlas's. Why doesn't he look up like he's thinking instead of looking down like he's embarrassed. NEVER LOOK DOWN IN PHOTOS. BE PROUD OF YOUR NOSTRILS AND WHATEVER RESIDES WITHIN.

Why does it stretch them? Because they are not uploaded but just URLs?
I never understood that randomness. Try uploading the actual image.
|
|

Exact same image (check image source) the forum software stretches it.
I know, I'm just screwing with you. ^_^

Donations for Armory? Payouts for using Atlas as your avatar? Deposits from Bitscalper?

Also, I'll double OP's bounty for this instead ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FNVCWB.jpg&t=663&c=PbPVMUOtuknSTw) Okay, I really don't care, done. 1N9mMCgV1CzU3s8Kvf7BcQhBBXGgoo9Wx1 You didn't use the same image! The one I sent was 80x80. Yours has been stretched.

(Free) skype doesn't do conference videocalls though, does it?
Nope! But only one person in the group call needs business skype (which I have). Hangouts also have the feature where the one talking is in main view,
What happens when more than one talks? lol and youtube-video sharing (not sure if that's a good thing).
Christ. I guess you could say "it will happen anyway", but that's just making it too easy.

Aww, you guys left already! Wait until I wake up next time ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif) Just use IRC already. Sheesh, no need reinventing the wheel. Videochat is different than IRC. And I still haven't tried out the damn hangout functionality in Google+! [foreveralone.jpg] It's not bad, it works, and it lets you choose what window to share if you do desktop sharing (meaning better security, although annoying when you're trying to actually show the switching of windows), but it's slightly more steps to get to than Skype.

Hey, that looks familiar! Is nice... yeah? ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=http%3A%2F%2F1.bp.blogspot.com%2F_qnIg2JtuPL4%2FTFRdzy__eFI%2FAAAAAAAAATs%2FekSh5dmHzfs%2Fs1600%2FBorat-VeryNice.jpg&t=663&c=3Fe-6by6xOCjyA) Are you like, standing right beside him or something? lol
