I hope your right but I worry that it’s the innocent (and possibly underage) people that are just getting into Bitcoin that will be his prey.
Well, the one that recorded furries fucking in a toy house was you...  Yeah! Exactly my point! What are you talking about? I feel a pyramid coming on.. |

I neither know nor care to know this terrytibbs. But if he was labeled a scammer then it was probably for a good reason.
I stopped reading right there because I was also labeled a scammer once for arguably no good reason and I am one of the most productive members of the forum now. I don't know TerryTibbs but when I see a scammer tag, I just say "What now?". |

No offense intended to OP (actually irrelevant) but I could write a story twice this long and twice as believable and still be a complete lie.
Sounds like a challange. Start new user - beg - and see if you can get coins before you get the scammer badge! I already did! I am MilkMan39! Suprise!  |

Is there any benefits to having more than 8 peer connections?
Faster transactions confirmations? Nah, I guess not. Maybe a better chance of picking up double-spends? |

Whatever anyone does, make him do it before getting the money from you.

I also hate rainbows.
*RAGE*It does when he is an avid preacher of how silky smooth and hot young Pattayan boys are and how you should tip them after screwing them.
Are you saying that Pattayan boys are rough and ugly, and don't deserve tips for their hard working services? BTW, to be fair, his shows have 10,000 to 20,000 views each. That's a pretty sizeable chunk of the Bitcoin community. Either most of his viewers don't know about his background, or they don't care, so advertising with him still makes sense. And to be even more fair, his viewers don't necessarily like him when they watch to see how he will ignore his next guests. I am pretty sure when Vicente and I were throwing back popcorn watching the last fail parade we weren't doing so as 'fans'. Also, all of his 'sponsors' are people who has personally befriended or just wants to be associated with. He put Roger's MemoryDealers logo as a sponsor once without any consent from Roger (or sponsorship!). I wouldn't put much stock in his advertisers knowing anything about Bitcoin other than what Bruce has told them (which was probably something like "They worship me".) P.S. In my defense, rainbows remind me of that time God tried to kill me with a giant flood. It sucked and my shoes were soaked. |

Years ago I had a habit of asking people what they thought was the purpose of life. I heard many different ideas over several years. Most just so-so but some very interesting ones. My favorite was, "life is an exercise in self-discipline". I think that saying has a lot to be said for it. If one has never had to be disciplined to achieve something than the achievements do not really matter so much. The harder we work for something the more we feel rewarded when we accomplish what we set out to do. The more I though about it the more I liked that response. All in all, I think that is the best definition of life I have heard.
Cool, but i think the purpose of life just can't be defined by few words. Sure you can. Eat. Shit. Sleep. Mate. Fight. Play. Die. |

And in that regard, I have faith in him to promote Bitcoin with all of our best interest in mind.
Someone who has been convicted of fraud and evangelizes the sex trade is not a good spokesperson for Bitcoin. That is what he wants to be, and even if he is a complete angel now, he will hurt the brand. He should be ostracized. I thought it was only a civil court order. I don't see what the sex trade has anything to do with with being a spokesperson. Pornography will probably be one of the biggest uses of bitcoins in the future, why ostracize a a very profitable industry? It does when he is an avid preacher of how silky smooth and hot young Pattayan boys are and how you should tip them after screwing them. "Sex trade" does not mean "adult entertainment industry". It means "prostitution". I hope your right but I worry that it’s the innocent (and possibly underage) people that are just getting into Bitcoin that will be his prey.
Well, the one that recorded furries fucking in a toy house was you... Hey! That was me! How dare you give credit to someone else.  |

What you're saying doesn't make much sense to me.
If the passwords were hashed (even unsalted MD5), how could an attacker create a clear text column with everybody's password? At most he would get some through rainbow tables, but not all.
Unless the attacker actually manage to inject code into your server. That would be a more serious flaw, not just a password leak. And still, he would only be able to get the clear version of each password after everybody logs in.
Well.. if you had a look at the javascript of bitscalper you would have spotted theyre actually using md5 hashed passwords.. so i guess he is not lieing about that.. I'm not disputing that. But it seems the exploit allowed the retrieval of clear text passwords. If they are not stored in clear text, how would that be possible? But wait, you're saying that there's a javascript performing the hash on the client? That's pretty much the equivalent of storing them as clear text. +2 |

5 day old domain. OP knows about it before anyone else. Registered in Panama. Op is fluent in Spanish. I wonder where this is going...  |

And as a counter, I might offer you this advise: Keep your friends close and your enemies closer. I'm not saying Bruce is an enemy of mine by any means. But if you suspect someone is capable of defrauding you, your guard should already be up. It's the people you dont know that are fraudsters that should worry you the most. My relationship with Bruce centers on discussions surrounding Bitcoin and it's amazing potential to change the world for the better. And in that regard, I have faith in him to promote Bitcoin with all of our best interest in mind. I like you so I'll be gentle and just respond to this with one word: Pattaya. |

I gotta say, I've had dinner several times with Bruce and lots of one-on-one conversations. While I can't speak to his past suspected transgressions, he is a true believer and faithful advocate of Bitcoin and I respect him for that.
And I respect you for letting us know that, something we didn't know or didn't/don't want to believe that of him. Sometimes, it's easy to continue kicking at a guy for no reason at all, except for a few LOL's. I'm almost 52 years old, and should know better. Thank you, Tuxavant, for putting this back into perspective. ~Bruno~ Self-important scam artists are always sincere. I have talked with Bruce when he was here in Japan as well and he sounded very serious about succeeding, having fun, and above all, completely ignoring everyone with a concern about his plans. He was also very careful to paint himself as a celebrity telling me how children recognize him in New York and how that's what he cares about most. I never doubt this for a second, nor do I doubt after talking with him in great lengths about how to do damage control on his bashed public image that his refusal to respond to inquiries, lies, and eventual going into hiding was nothing more than protecting himself. |

How come you can't order just the digital version with bitcoin?
I can accept that order manually through the website's email contact but for the moment our system isn't set up to allow pre release purchases of downloadable goods. Update: flatplan was all finished last night. Had some issues with some of the photos for a few of the articles and now it is being handled. Final layouts will take up to 3 days, followed by an additional group verification process of each page. Also changed printers due to a shipping and ordering restriction. |

So now that op can't do a marajana seasteading he's going make millions as a web hosting limo driver that lives in a mansion.
I'm convinced that OP is related to logansyrce and Atlas and may even attend the same elementary school.

Also, OP is a hater.
I'm no hater of homosexuals, con-artists, self-importants or even convicted scammers. I am a hater of two things though-- cowards, and those who downplay the importance of their interview guests to try to make themselves seem more important. I also hate rainbows. |

I'm sorry to bring up ghosts guys. Ordinarily I laugh maniacally in private at the circle-jerk newsletter I subscribed to on google that Bruce moderates to keep out Bold Funding scam evidence, or just post it to skype friends, but this little gem today was too good to keep to myself. Adam Levine < adamlevinemobile@gmail.com> Feb 13 06:15PM -0800 Sounds like we have our answer to how The Powers That Be would respond: They are taking the embargo route. If this trend continues we can expect another blow to the value - What do you think Bruce, this going to be a big hit? Adam Levine Bruce Wagner < bruce@onlyonetv.com> Feb 14 07:01AM -0500 It's already taking a toll. It's down in the $4 range now... whereas it's been in the $6 range. I think the field is certainly ripe for more exchanges to appear on the scene. If only they knew how to Market themselves, they'd have massive volume. ( i.e. advertise on The Bitcoin Show). MtGox gets massive exposure due in part to my own PR. I always demonstrate MtGox when interviewed on television, etc. Other competing exchanges don't have a chance without a real PR machine behind them.... like me. :-) At least TradeHill was smart to sponsor The Bitcoin Show for a while, from launch day. They quickly grabbed 10-14% market share from MtGox. But then they dropped their advertising and began loosing what they had gained. All the other exchanges are stillborn, at this point, having never advertised at all. Best regards, Only Love, Bruce Bruce Wagner OnlyOneTV | global television network http://OnlyOneTV.com +1 646-580-0022 say no to a thousand things - focus on only one  If only they knew how to Market themselves, they'd have massive volume.

Is my friend Matthew in or out? I feel he'll add value to this contest.
~Bruno~
I'm totally in! I already applied. I don't know why it didn't go through. What the eff. @OP: Did you send me something? I believe edd is just waiting for you bio, if I'm not mistaken, Matthew. Hmm...I think I never filled one out. Should I email it? If so, where to? I sent you an email, Matthew, to the address you used in the contact form. I'm currently stuck in rush hour traffic but I'll resend ASAP. Send it to jindq1@gmail.com |

We've all just seen the "take everyone's money and disappear without telling anyone" thing go down here too many times, Matthew, that's all. When you disappeared without making note of it on bitcointalk, and no one bothered to defend you until the last minute (except Phinnaeus, who no one knew if he was joking or not), it started freaking people out. A quick note that you were going on vaca probably would have avoided all of it.
Hindsight is 20/20. Now that Mihai has the blog on the site up, crap like this won't happen anymore I suppose. No worries. I think we're all glad that you're back though. Me too. I had 400 emails to read when I got back, and most of them had "bitcoin magazine" somewhere in the title. -_-; I'm finalizing the flatplan again right now (things changed over the weekend, including what articles would be included etc).

What if you have a prolonged stay in the restroom - will the blog be updated to prevent future panics? Vicente told me I should get a streaming webcam for my study, but I have way too much sex in my house to let that happen. So charge for access? I thought you were a man of business! Sorry, I already have a restrictive contract that limits all broadcasting of my sexual activities to a certain website only. It's called BruceWagnerPattayaDrunkenCruiseExpressOnlyOneCam.com |
