I don't see how "something comical" can be constructive.
There are many subforums on this board. Not every single one if focused on acquiring BTC. After-all, the signature he and I have is for PrimeDice which is a recreational activity. What better way to advertise that than to go into places where people go to unwind. I post in the mining forums to help new mines, I post in the newbie section to warn or help them with their new endeavors, I post in the mining forum since I mined from 2011 onwards, I post in economy and trading since I still trade occasionally. The point is to get that signature seen. Otherwise you could just make you own thread and keep talking to yourself and nobody would even bother to scroll past the 1st or 2nd post.

You could accept Paypal if you know the trader has a very good track record. Somebody who has a lot of positive trust and been on here for a couple years. They would most likely charge a small fee though, but you would get that anyway using local bitcoins.

my rig is so old, but I still use it to mining, it is impossible to mine bitcoin with the high difficulty. so I mine some altcoin with small difficulty. i prefer mine x11 or x13 like darkcoin, lioncoin, cryptcoin. because i get good Hashrate with my old rig Well as long as the hardware is capable of allowing GPUs to mine scyrpt, X11, X13 coins then yeah you're OK. But that's not what I would consider old. Something like a Celeron 333 or Pentium 75MHz rig - that would be old. If it can support a PCIe Gen 2 slot it can probably mine.

The fact that there is continued discussion on this "system" points the absurdity of the gambler's mind. They think they can beat basic statistics by having a logical well-defined system. You know those people who go down at 3AM when their wife or girlfriend is sleeping so they don't get caught. The win about 20 rounds and then they get a bad streak and you see their faces as they mope through the casino. These guys love to frequent the roulette table and think they can find patterns the colors.

I wonder how many people replying in this thread stating they like summer live in a location where summer could actually be deadly? Admittedly I love winter but here in Southern California we had 1 day with 97F this past winter. The coldest it got was 34F overnight low - not even freezing.
About 100 miles from me is Death Valley which has the hottest recorded temps on Earth.
For those who claim they like summer, what kind of summer are you talking about?

I believe every Italian man would protest at #6 - no talking about yo mamma. It may not be the motorcycle bad boy they're looking for though.

They're not having a worse day than me - yet. Most of those people look like they do that stuff day-in day-out. A worse day would a child with no arms begging for food.

Ghost rider is a god. Bike's not quite as fast though. I lost any respect I may have had for you as a human. You're putting somebody who scares the crap out of other commuters on a pedestal? A God? It's people like this that reinforce my idea that every motorcyclist is a self absorbed asshole. I still give way to them and appreciate when they give me the acknowledgement only to have another 5 assholes on bikes fly by at 100+ mph.

Happy birthday! Since you'll be dead soon may I have your BTC? That's dark humor, please don't take offense

So there seems to be hoards of Litecoin threads, Either vehemently for it or against it claiming 'official' death. Most of these threads are self-moderating so as to reinforce the views of the original poster. Which is bullshit nonsense. So here is an unmoderated thread (by myself at least, Forum mods still apply) where you can freely discuss. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=663590.0My personal views on Litecoin are that it has very little reason to hold the #2 spot anymore. The majority of the reasons it ascended to the #2 spot are no longer valid arguments. Sure it was 'ASIC proof', We all know how that worked out. Sure it wasnt BitCoin. But there is 100's of 'Not BitCoins' now. It was innovative until 9000 other people did it and improved or experimented with the formula. The one thing that is still a valid reason for it to retain #2 is seniority and perhaps derivative works Another interesting way to look at coins would be to rate them by Algo, of all coins using a specific Algo, which is top for each. Now rate each algo by relevance or importance. And that is your new 'top coins' By the reasoning of point 1 everybody can just make a clone of some ASIC difficult algo and it is supposed to be better than LTC?

I can make more $ working my job than trading so trading would put me at unnecessary risk of missing out on the market.

I assume whatever coins I have on an exchange are lost. Not that I don't check them everyday, but a Gox can happen at any moment and honestly I don't have the financial means to pursue prosecution.

Kindly PM them the transaction info on blockchain and show that it has X number on confirmations. If they gave you the wrong address then it is possible the funds went to the wrong place, but that would be his fault. As long as you know you sent it to the right address you're good. Consider putting it in scam accusations to warn others.

When I did high value tech trades I would let them know I was bringing friends and I would in fact take 1 friend. I would say I brought some friends and here's 1 (pointing at the 1 I brought). Doesn't even need to look tough. The fact there's more than 1 person keeps almost anybody from trying something stupid - lot easier to find squishier targets.

A robot bartender will cost lot more than a human one. Makes no economic sense
It depends. Robots you pay for once. Humans you pay for continuously. Once you buy the robot then it doesn't get tired, it doesn't ask for a salary or sleep. If you use a robot for one year it will likely be more expensive then one years salary for a bartender. You will still need to pay for things like repairs and electricity for the robot. If you are paying the bartender only $2.13 per hour then these expenses would potentially exceed what you would pay the bartender. A robot will also not be able to effectively upsell and encourage additional sales the same ways that a human can. Have you ever seen a robot steal office supplies? Have you ever seen a robot take a smoke break without clocking out? Have you ever seen a robot watch youtube cat videos on the boss' dime. Man reigns supreme!

Rich sty rich, or get even richer, as they know all rules of the game, and 99% of population is clueless. They play those rules and they live out of that 99%. As simple as that. BTC , if successful, will change those rules. Those that are now rich will have to learn em or parish, while some "new kids" rise....same kids that know new rules and use em.
The rich don't know the rules..... they write the rules. If you can spare 1 million for a team of 5 lobbyist than whisper in your Senator's ear and the Senator writes laws helping you make $10 million more than your competition you just won. All you need to do is write a check for 5 lobbyists. This is how is works in the US. I doubt the rest of the world is any different.

Nothing drives the price up quite like demand of use. If some website, say Amazon, says they'll take a crypto. The price will rise. It's not because the coins are more rare, but because they are being accepted. Any of us can take our coins, sell at an exchange for fiat, move fiat to bank account, and then buy the item from Amazon - but it's a lot easier to just use the coin as intended.

I can't see the miner's profitability effecting the price other than maybe some miners may consider buying coins instead of hardware. There are a lot of Bitcoin users who have never even owned a miner.
