... No, if you physically flush your money down your toilet they're lost and probably destroyed...
ORLY? I invite you to try it with your own toilet. Take five Twenty-dollar bills, throw them into your toilet, soak them in fresh urine, and flush. Let the tank fill up. Now flush again. I guarantee you that 12 hours after the final flushing, $200 will appear in your wallet. [edit][SPOILER! Do not read until your money is safely flushed down the toilet!] *Though I never said "the final flushing" was the last flush of your toilet. I meant the final flushing evah, before the universe succumbs to heat death.
It's a bad example and a bad theoretical scenario ( supposed to be funny? ) that's irrelevant to the rest of the discussion. Although everyone has already realized you're a troll.

... Where does the site claim that there is a 100% chance you'll get your investment back? I guess the same place where you bank claims that there's a hundred percent chance you'll get your money back -- no place. As far as "it's an investment system": My toilet is also an investment system. You flush your money down, and get double your money back. Or not. Like that? No, if you physically flush your money down your toilet they're lost and probably destroyed. Ponzis use the money that others invest to pay the former investors with a % profit. I'm surprised that you don't know the basics of it while trying to create arguments for why they shouldn't be advertised. That said, I'm not defending/recommending ponzis to anyone, I've made several posts advising people not to use them, and voted for a new sections exclusively for ponzis, so that the rest of us don't have to see them. Ponzis don't work unless someone loses their money, which is wrong, but it should still be everybody's choice if they wanna risk it. However it's still the forum owner's right to advertise them, if he wants to.

The Intenet is supposed to be open and free from censorship so why should I not express my opinions?
It's not a matter of what you should or should not do, but aren't you afraid of assassination?

I wouldn't call it a non-relevant thread. I think providing the 1 key data point I surmised from reading the thread is relevant to this active thread. If you don't want to read Newbie comments, feel free to skip this thread Oh .. and +1 Peace and love Great pool, I had fun jumping through the history of this thread. Should have read it before I bought a used Jalapeno, I would have seen the posts back in May 2013 explaining how with the difficulty increases and increases in overall hashing, 5GH would only earn good BTC rates for a while. Oh well, at least my miner contributes to the Bitcoin network in general Did you seriously just make a non relevant comment to a non relevant 3 year old thread? You're a newbie, I get it, you want to get your activity up. But at least post your useless comments on active threads, if you're gonna spam at all. I'm confused, I didn't understand anything you typed. It might be too late for forum reading. Oh well, whatever. Peace.

Do not think bitcoins will pass $1000 in 2014, may be in 2015. Too much bad news so far.
a lot can happen in 9 months. How about 9 days, or even 9 hours. Who really wants "slow and steady" growth. Volatility is much more exciting! Haha, I have to agree with you. While slow and steady ( as the expression may suggest ) is a good slow growth, explosions and crashes makes it all a bit more interesting.

You guys do know..that this thread was started 3 years ago...The OP probably already gave away the 5 BTC Bounty, which in 2011 wasn't worth much, probably 4 dollars per Bitcoin..
+1 Lol, Jeez these guys are clueless! I already commented that when the thread was first dug up by a 2 activity newbie, however, people seem to enjoy posting their own ideas. Let them do whatever they want, I doubt anyone is expecting a reward, lol.

I just launched a microwallet.org faucet at http://coinomega.comLet me know if you have any suggestions. I'm looking at how to make the offerings more enticing/fun. This was quite an original one. The payouts aren't that big though, but it's a faucet so what'd you expect. I suggest posting it in Portnoy's thread, let him have a look at it and he'll probably add it to his thread on this forum. +1 for a clean site that doesn't redirect you to 10 adfly pages before you get your payment.

I made this thread before all the GOX drama... told you this was the year of FUD. The common image for bitcoin is lower than it has been in a while.. price is still 50% below last year's ATH and we are midway through March.
Yeah it's only 1/4 of the year... but my stance is still the same for 2014.
Ok. Why not stop shitposting and wait for the next 3/4 of the year, and we'll find out, won't we?

Exactly what are we the victim of? I'm enjoying myself, and this thread gives me the opportunity to smile a bit ( and pity ) the failure of a person throwing his butthurt slurs and insults at other random people on an internet forum.

I am not sure if it does make a difference, should it? I still have not been told who farted, I wonder what that means?
Everyone ate the same beans; does it make any difference? I think that when all eat the same beans or drink the same Kool Aid it matters naught; what think you? Are you sure that you're allowed to share your opinions about bans and Kool aid on the internet?

... It is misrepresenting itself, but it is honest when it comes to the ponzi scheme.
I'm sort-a afraid to ask but ... "It's lying, but otherwise it's honest?" or "It's honest except for the parts where it lies"? *"It honestly lies"? "It lies, I lie. A lie about a lie is Truth. Profit!" It is a investment system, you invest and get a profit back. However there's not a guarantee you will. Where does the site claim that there is a 100% chance you'll get your investment back?

Yeah, and I was a dumbass for not reading comments before gambling.. I can't believe he actually thinks we'll buy this "hacked" billshit. You have to be completely fucking retarded and give your private keys and shit away to be hacked..
Yeah, nobody gets hacked without literally asking for it.

Perhaps the allowed signature styling should change with activity score / membergroup. Like: - Newbie: No styling (including links) allowed. Max 40 characters. - Jr. Member: Links allowed. Max 100 characters. - Member: Unlimited length. - Full: Color allowed. - Sr. Member: Size allowed - Hero: Background color allowed
Then newbies will be less effective advertisers, which would hopefully significantly reduce the incentive for low-content posts. And when people become capable of effectively advertising through their signatures, they'll have invested a lot of time into their accounts, and they won't risk being banned by spamming.
Why not allow link usage to all tiers but block the first two or three tiers from using known paid advertisements sites. You could blacklist those URLs and make them automatically redirect to bitcointalk.org Link shorteners too would be blocked for those tiers and would redirect to bitcointalk.org This will allow personal sites and would block usage of paid links. This would take some time to blacklist the people though. This could be an alternative solution. However as you say it would take a lot of effort to blacklist those sites. Also, the problem is that this would only restrict newbies and jr members specifically. You have to remember not all newbies and jr members are spamming, and this seems unreasonably harsh as a collective punishment. Another suggestion I would like to see some moderator respond to is this: Make it so, that old signature rules are re-implemented, and that if your post gets reported for spam and deleted by a moderator, you then lose your signature privileges ( ex: No links allowed ) or simply no signature at all. This would punish only the spammers, which is what you're stating you want to do.

@apsvinet I have never explained the difference between gambling websites and Ponzi websites, foolishly assuming I was dealing with adults. My apologies, here you go:
A gambling website does not misrepresent itself as a form of investment, as makebtc.org, the website in question, does. Since you can not be trusted to follow imbedded links, I'll quote some of the relevant text:
"MakeBTC's unique investment system allows you to provide yourself with future wealth! You will earn residual bitcoin income over time as the website evolves." (boldface added 4 extra lulz, color added because otherwise u'd miss it)
As far as your inability to "decipher a bunch of letters" -- those are called "words." The ability to synthesize letters into words, and, in turn, derive meaning from the aforementioned, is called "reading and understanding" -- a skill set you traded in for your exciting life of huffing paint and "investing" in Ponzis.
Jeez.
Besides, just to prove my point even more about your incapability of reading properly, you misquoted me ( perhaps on purpose? ). I was not able to dechiper a single argument out of the bunch of letters ( humorous implication that his ramblings were nonsense ). lol, pwned.

@apsvinet: Your spergy antics are becoming unbearable. if you don't stop spamming this instant and delete your posts, I'm calling your parents. You have been warned, young lady Good argument. Thank you for your input, theMiracle.

Why do people use Android?
Don't you think having a bitcoin wallet app is good enough reason? Are there any good wallet apps for Windows Phone? Why in the name of god do you have a Windows phone? Do you doubt the functionality of a Windows phone, or are there other reasons why you're implying it's not as good as other phones? Have you not heard Richard Stallman's rants about free software? Does Windows' _NSAKEY not alarm you? Have you not heard, that the bird is the word?

Fucking scammer i just read the whole thread and the other one too where the asshole trying to scam for 20$ feels pathetic when i see these kind of bastards and only because of these sometimes its very hard to believe the legit ones and their stories.I feel sorry for you clutch, its ver clear he was a scammer so can't his ip be blocked forever or his account if yes then mods please do that. I doubt they'd do that even if they could. His trust rating is already red, which means no one else will fall for his scam attempts again.
