Yes South Africa sucks, I'd never invest one satoshi in that hell hole of a backwards armpit.

All the miners down there are on strike, no wonder Clipse absconded with all the bitcoins!   

Oversensitive much Clipse?  I'd love to post in your BonuScamPool thread, but you locked it a long time ago.  Cute!

You sure have done a good job "giving added value to miners that isnt available to them from the other pools."   

Hey, maybe you can sell CoinLab your PenaltyPool software.  It has decent stats and you don't seem to be using it!   

Some of us realized that when the odd "Investment Option" scheme was imposed.

Or even earlier, like when Clipse was spending more energy complaining about too much hash power being directed to his pool than beefing up the server.

Maybe the name should be changed to PenaltyPool?   

What do you mean "if Bitcoin was backed by drama?"

I second that emotion.  Stratum has spoiled me and there's no going backwards to olde-timey getworks.

I'll bid BTC2.   

GLBSE should have been done as a Silk Road clone.  You guys were practically waving a red cape at the SEC/FBI/TPTB bulls.  It was destined to end in tears.

+1 for PandaMiner.  Thorough and a nice guy!

The current week is actually not in the log book.  Last entry is for 9/28, actually.

DeadTerra,

I have not put in a request for withdrawal, but it is not fair to those who have to strip them of their higher priority.

Months ago, I asked you to focus on the GBF instead of getting distracted by various IPOs.

You agreed (and thus I invested) back then, yet you then proceeded to waste your time and our bitcoins on various unrelated scammy/gimmicky nonsense projects.

You never updated the OP to reflect the recent negative returns.  You don't even update the google docs weekly. 

We now have no idea how many of our bitcoins you've lost!

Your constant excuses of "I'm too tired, I'm too busy, I'm too sick" are childish and unacceptable.

You have plenty of time for the latest shiny things that catch your attention, but not for your investment fund?  Again, not acceptable.

And now, despite owing your long-suffering investors 1000s of bitcoins, you are buying overpriced silver bullion from a Jr Member in another thread!

Am I the only one that finds such behavior galling?

I don't want to be payed back in drips and dribbles.  And I don't want to hear about how wonderful your intentions were.

Your actions are those of a con artist, especially the latest excuse of "circumstances have changed, so withdrawal requests are retroactively being dishonored."

The GBF should have been your highest, if not only, priority.  Instead you have been treating it (and us investors) as an afterthought, not worthy of FIDUCIARY RESPONSIBILITY.

You seem to be completely unfamiliar with the concept, so here is an excellent, concise definition:


Good day, sir!

.onion addresses are long and not human memorable.

Mapping a short, catchy .bit url to an onion address would help TOR ease-of-use.

I bid spot!

A circular statement is circular.  Stating the obvious is not an argument.

We are all well aware payb.tc made a single account with Pirate, it was (note the past tense) for a PPT fund called BitcoinMax.

Your opinion of what "should" or should not change has nothing to do with this.  The reality of the situation is that pirate has defaulted.

Payb.tc and BitcoinMax are now (note the present tense) as irrelevant as the co-conspirators of Madoff and their defunct feeder funds.  IE, his only role now is accurately reporting the facts of his PPT so that the debtor (pirate) may rectify to the extent possible his debts with this creditors.

Either that, or Payb.tc becomes the debtor and is on the hook to all those he helped rip off. 

Make your choice, and for the love of Satoshi stop living in the past.  BitcoinMax is dead and gone, and no amount of stubborn whinging will bring it back.

If anybody has an account with the discontinued Safari Cait skin, I'd be interested in buying it.

Wrong.  There was one bitcoinmax account with pirate.  Not anymore.  No longer. 

How thick must one be to still not understand and accept the difference between the pre-default past and the post-default present?   

Things have changed.  There is no more BS&T, and thus there are no more PPT funds. 

This is between pirate (the debtor) and his creditors now, unless payb.tc wants to accept full responsibility and take the consequences that come along with it.

He can't have it both ways, so he must make a good faith effort to comply with the terms of the liquidation or get a scammer tag.

I've taken the liberty of boldfacing and underlining the part where your problem is.  By complying with these intrusive instruments of state coercion you feed the beast, and thus lose any sympathy I otherwise naturally would have had for a fellow bitcoin user.

Boycott these jackboot licking business, or you deserve all the negative consequences resulting from your embrace of the Money Nazi regime!

If you calculate exactly how unlikely it is for a quantum computer to exist, it will spontaneously appear (and start mining qubitcoins)!

Or at least that's what I heard from a guy on btce chat...

Most unhappy people are concerned with the movements of such small, green pieces of paper, which is odd, because on the whole, it wasn’t the small, green pieces of paper which were unhappy.

I got the loot today, oh boy!  Neat little silver tabs.  Thebaron is pure class.  I'd have commercial relations with him again any day of the week and twice on Sunday.
