By posting literate, topical and friendly material; I'd say your off to a good start.
Welcome fellow peer. Cheesy

Thank you Cheesy

I got registered on bitcoin-otc's wall of trust, though I don't think I show up until I make a trade. GPG looked kind of confusing, but really wasn't. Waiting for a PM back from someone there regarding a MP-> BTC trade, thanks guys Smiley

Hey there! As stated in my intro, I'm pretty new to bitcoin and honestly want to get into buying some on the board as soon as I get out of the newbie zone. I can only really exchange USD via Paypal, Moneypak, and CIM right now, but really prefer MoneyPak. Are there any dangers with MoneyPak that would hinder a trusted member from trading their bitcoin for my moneypak if I sent the code first? Just kind of want to get an idea of how things like this work for a newbie around here so I don't embarrass myself in the Currency Exchange section Smiley

Gambling with small amounts like that sounds fun, but I'd probably save it for a bigger future purchase

I believe in freedom of choice, but I still bust my friends balls anyway when they go outside for a cig or something. I've given them an honest shot a few times, and I just really don't see the appeal :\ Maybe smoking weed for awhile before even trying a cig ruined them for me, who knows.

I'm having a tough time as well finding a place to buy. MtGox will be possible when I get a new checkbook to find my routing number to use Dwolla. Until then I'm only really limited to Cash in Mail, Moneypak, and Paypal, which I only really care to do Moneypak for this type of transaction since it's fast and I'll know that the seller did something with the funds since they have to cash it out. I recently moved for college and I'm nowhere near my bank or any large major bank, so bank deposit is out of the question. Most of the other methods seem kind of sketchy

Hey there Smiley New to bitcoin and joined the forum to hopefully learn how to buy and the currency exchange forum looks like a pretty easy place to find sellers for my limited payment methods at the moment.
