silverbox, you're about to lose all your gains on GPL.  sell while you can.

I know, but I just checked and the fed is still printing money like its going out of style, I'll just wait Wink

unfortunately, Ben's bladder is too small to fill up the toilet of irreconcilable debt to prevent the flush down into deflationary hell.

His bladder is infinitely large.

damnit. i must have just missed the processing period.

i got the login screen but after putting in my email and payout address i got a 404.

now the front page says:

Update:we are currently unable to process account closures, and will inform our users when this service resumes.

OK, you've got my attention.  I'll gladly take any brainstorming from people on what can be done with my electric bill, my ID and a picture of me with the date, my login & e-mail...

#1) Seriously, what could happen? 

#2) And what can I do about it now?

I'm pretty sure the answer to #1 is not too much (fingers crossed).

but I'm even more sure the answer to #2 is nothing...

gah, I guess this had to happen sooner or later.  Perhaps I should cancel or put a hold on my credit lines?  Any other ideas?


Nefario has enough to open an online bank account in your name. Plus hand your pic over to the grand jury.

Thank you for your thoughts & comments.

So Nefario can open an online bank account in my name.  This would show up on my credit report; so I can call the credit agency and have them lock down my credit line, so that only unlocking it would allow a new line of credit to be opened.  This costs $5 or something to turn on and off I think (based on what a co-worker told me).

However, say I don't do this, then what?  I guess he could open the account and try to over draft it and then peace out?  Then this would make me look bad and hit my credit as a default?  Hopefully, no institution would let more than $1,000 ish go like this.  I'll be making enough with bitcoins that I won't have to worry about silly fiat credit lines anyway... at least that's the plan for now.

Anything I'm missing?

As for the stock portfolio account in a country I don't know existed; not sure what other issues could happen with that.  Seems like people keep offshore accounts and don't go to jail all the time.  However, if someone were to link me with the account in the next 2 years (that's when my license will expire), there should be a trail of where the money came from.  Good thing I'm not involved with online anonymous digital currency/commodities that could have gotten the money there untraceable...

heh, oh well.  I'm not too worried of the risk just yet.  Perhaps, I'll lock my credit report since I don't need credit.  I've already got my house mortgage refinanced & won't be needing any additional debt anytime soon.
You are never liable for any theft from your credit card company. Even if someone has all the information necessary, if ultimately if it wasn't you, you are not liable. And in most cases you don't really have to prove that it wasn't you, they have to prove it was you. (Camera, voice recognition, signature, address and/or pick up etc etc)

Right, so having my utility bill and license and picture of me with my e-mail/login/date could potentially help someone not me "prove" or provide the "proof" that the credit card company needs.

Regardless, it may show up as a "ding" on my "credit report/score" and I don't know what the implications of that would be. 
YOU file a claim for fraud. Regardless of the information or documentation they had, once you file a claim, why would he "prove" them anything? Bottom line, card/info stolen and fraudulent charges are made, you file a claim, you get your money back. Your credit is unaffected. The stories you hear about peoples credit getting ruined is when someone basically steals your whole identity and uses it a while and opens lines of credits and loans under your identity. After a while your credit will be ruined and that's how you will learn about it, and again, you file a claim, and then its restored. The worst it can be is slightly inconvenient, probably even a little less inconvenient than worrying about it and crying about an harmless situation.

I had my identity stolen.  After I fixed all of the fradulent things with the 3 major credit agencies, I then asked my actual credit card companies to put the limits on my cards back to where they were (since they were radically lowered which is how I found out about the new cards/accounts that were overdrawn/maxed) not one bank/credit card company restored my card limits to where they were before the whole mess (that took about a year to straighten out).  My limits today, 5 years later, are still lower then before the mess.

My credit is still affected to this day.

Don't act like it all gets magically fixed once you clear up the mess, and that the mess doesn't cost you time and money to straighten out.

Getting your identity stolen totally sucks.

Looks like day twofive is over and there is still nothing from GLBSE. I guess we will keep patiently waiting for Nefario to deliver what he has said he would. I still don't understand why the GLBSE application can't be brought back up with trading/transfering disabled.

It's about 1/5th the size of pirate, about 1/5th the drop.  Wait, it already happened Wink

I doubt it will drop much more, I'd be suprised if we see high 10s.

Whats that magic number again Cypher?  1793??

it is 1793.  can u get it sustainably above that?  it won't turn me into a bull tho.  just less bearish.

It's ok, you can do it.. Just try it out.. Repeat after me "Gold is in a Bull Market"  "Gold prices in USD will rise"  Wink

nope.  sorry.  can't do it.  like i said, i'll stick with my Bitcoin.  and you can stick with your tungsten.

My Tungsten is where it belongs, in my shotgun shells Wink

Uh have you tried to connect to GLBSE lately??  like in the last few hours?

Yeah, it sees nefario took it down. He claims software update, I wonder if the SEC just arrested him and took the site down.

First I've heard of software update, where did you hear/read that?



People on IRC.

If you read it on IRC, it must be true Wink

151  Economy / Securities / Re: GLBSE is offline We will update our users on Saturday. on: October 04, 2012, 05:01:17 PM
Lack of explanation implies lawyers got involved. Wait and see what happens.

Yeah that's what I'm thinking. Saturday should be an interesting day.

Agreed. If it was migrating servers or something like it, he would have put it on there and would even have announced it before hand. The fact that he doesnt means he doesnt want to talk about the real reason yet. A SEC or criminal investigation seems like a good bet, and also matches with the fact Nefario hasnt been communicating for quite some time now.

Anyone have an idea how much money we are talking about here? The combined asset value?



150k BTC asset value or so, I imagine most peeps didn't keep much of a BTC balance on GLBSE.  Probably less then 20k BTC on the exchange.
152  Economy / Speculation / Re: Gold collapsing. Bitcoin UP. on: October 04, 2012, 12:42:31 AM
It's oh so close.. I so badly want to see it breech 1793 so that Cypher can turn that frown upside down!! 

Go Bulls! Wink

I think bitcoinica is about twice as likely to pay back as pirateat40.

0 x 2 is still 0??

Necro!

I got some .308 dies recently and all the fixings to reload all them empty cases I been hoarding.



Ready to test the first batch..



That ammo didn't work, tested it today.  The bolt on my M1A wouldn't quite cam over on some of it and like an idiot I fired it anyway.  Had multiple FTE, 1 FTF,  Bleh.

I figured out what was wrong, I need to resize those stiff old mil surplus cases I'm using twice and set the die 1/4 turn deeper on the 2nd resize.  I just checked it out and the bolt cams over perfect if I resize them that way.



Fired 10 that I sized twice to knock the shoulder back (I also ran them thru the chamber once to make sure the bolt was caming over all the way before I fired them) and loaded a lil lighter (42.5gr of H4985) then that first batch, cycled and functioned perfect.  Wink

I'll up the powder a bit on the next few test runs.

Belief.  To be honest, I've sensed future events, in my life, throughout the last few years of my life.  Every one coming true.  This applies to good and bad occurrences in my life, at times I wished I couldn't do this.

Whoever said it in here was right, evolution gives us a glimpse into the future, using logic.  There are, naturally, certain steps man must achieve while evolving.

Ok, tell me if I get this straight.

You will become one of the world's greatest musicians after 6 months of practice (to use the term loosely).
You take on ridiculously expensive loans, backed by karma/your soul.
You claim to be able to know the cure to cancer.
You admit to speeding and driving under influence, yet claim you can't be harmed.
You proclaim you will become a billionaire shortly.
You want to start various small businesses, but say proper planing isn't required.
Despite clear forensic proof saying the contrary, you claim you don't run a ponzi.
You claim you're not on drugs, nor have any mental issues.

All because of the simple fact that you can see into the future?





Also, just as your use of creationism didn't make a lick of sense, you're using evolution wrong.

Don't pick on dank!!  He's about to embark on a most excellent adventure, in which he becomes the greatest musician ever!!

Here's a primer if you haven't seen it yet http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0096928/

Anybody have a Mosin Nagant to sell me in Texas?

I can't bother with FFL. 18 here.
If your 18 can't you just buy it at a gunshop? Hell, your in Texas. Can't you just buy it at a gas station?
There is a gun store in Temple that has them in a clearance rack by the front door.

The 4473 form is probably the hold up..

Ouch where did you put the short on GG? 46?

So lower then 46 Wink

Just the $5000.  I've been busy with guitar lately.  I'm not in a hurry though, the hookah lounge will come.

Wait, someone seriously invested $5000 in this project??  Who in the world was that?

Someone has apparently promised to give him $5000 if he raises $20,000.

Ohh, so the total raised is zero..  gotcha.
