BTC_Bear, let's show this turd how it's done in this community so that he'll grow up one day and get a clue and be a functional part of the community instead of a whining turd.

I pledge 2.5 BTC to smart1985 so that I have a reason to hate OP for the rest of my life.

You don't know how to argue, do you?

Let's examine your statement:


What does being on smart1985's side entail? That you should give him back his money? Okay.


But wait-- does thinking that you have money that doesn't belong to you also mean thinking you're a scammer?

Do you see how your loaded words are designed to continue to fool yourself and rationalize to yourself?

To anyone with a grasp of the English language, it's quite obvious you what you're trying to do.

You're also wrong. I'm a donator, and I don't think you're a scammer. You're wrong. Wrong.

What I do think is that you're an unethical shitstain and the type of person we should be weary of.

Good luck lying to yourself.

I'd hardly call that being "on the other side of the fence". More like a newbie not knowing how to handle a situation because he was robbed. OP is clearly just butthurt and trying to get a quick profit.

Even though I'd love to give the exact print date here, the management at Bitcoin Magazine won't allow me and instead direct you to a press release on Tuesday, May 1st, 2012 at 10:00AM. It's news I am sure everyone (except trolls/detractors) will be very happy to hear.

It's been a fun ride getting to this point, but now it's time to say goodbye to all the trolls and start representing the Bitcoin community in a professional way that will actually bring people into it instead of scaring them away.

Keep a close eye on http://www.bitcoinmagazine.net starting Tuesday, May 1st, 2012 at 10AM as I will no longer be giving announcements on this thread.

Thanks for the wait everyone!


Press release: http://www.prweb.com/releases/2012/5/prweb9463303.htm

Yes, you would.

Ditto.

I lol'ed.

Your chance was right now, and you've already stated what you think is your case. I couldn't care less who the person sent you coins was. It could be CoinExchanger, Bitscalper, Atlas, or some other shady fuck that we all wish were in a ditch someplace, but definitely you're wrong in this and every word out of your mouth that isn't "I'm wrong", is one more person who's going to hate you.

Keep it up, asshole. The popcorn is popping.

No you wouldn't have. Stop lying. I read the entire log and your forum posts. You were going to give him "credit" for the "overspend".

Stop rationalizing and start being a man.

Why did you ruin the surprise?

Yep. Even after the guy showed proof that he owned it and sent it himself.

I'm really surprised how ignorant he is thinking that starting a thread about this and bringing attention to himself is going to do anything but wage a war against him.

I don't think you're a scammer at all. You're just an unethical sleeze  who profits off of other people's mistakes.

The scammer tag isn't appropriate at all, but there is no "Unethical Scummyfuck" tag.


P.S. I voted "no" because you're not a scammer. You're just unethical and the more people whom you draw attention to yourself will only confer with this.

Atlas, please get lost. No one wants you here and you've already been perma-banned twice now.

Since we accept Paypal directly now, there is no point to.

Sorry, companies don't give interest to customers who purchase pre-orders of things. Everyone is welcome to a refund though if they don't want to purchase the magazine. I'll be back in a few hours with the announcement.

I have no idea what that site is, but it's not ours. Also, as I said before "Bitdex" is just the codename we use to refer to it. It has a legal registered name for the patents, business, etc. but we've agreed not to use it publicly until the press release.


o rly

BitDex is the codename. I highly doubt you would find anything online about it, since I've only mentioned it maybe 7 times briefly on the forums since 2011. The discussions related to the BitDex have mostly been done inside the DCAO away from prying eyes. I'm quite curious as to what cartoon you found lol

And that's the meat of the argument right there. I'm not making videos promoting something I'm not ready to show a working unit of. 

That will all be outlined in the press release.)

I will say that as a kid I did love those bluetooth, radio and IR connected chatting devices. Something like "My Diary" or somewhatnot. Rad stuff that was.

My hostility is towards vaporware and unsubstantiated claims. No demos, no word on functionality, just a video, some hype-ful tweets, etc. If this actually works, I'll be the first to celebrate and congratulate the developers. Seriously. The problem is that I don't believe ad-hoc is a solution for Bitcoin transactions, and they have no working prototype to show (the one at the conference wasn't a working demo).


Yes, although we're working with cell companies to have the option available for whomever wants it.

No. I don't personally see any value of a financial tool being a chatting device. If we wanted that, we'd just stick with using a mobile phone.

Can't wait till I can cut the red ribbon on this one.

Nope. You can read the press release when we're ready. It was supposed to be released 3 months ago, so that means any day now.
