Okay are u trusted
I have done multiple high value trades and I'm working on getting my feedback all in once place for people to refer back to. However, I'm currently not taking MoneyPak, just the payment methods listed in the title. Message me on Friday and I'll be able to help you out. +1 Vouch for Wardrick. I bought some coins a few days ago using WU and had zero issues. Can provide proof of this if needed. |

Looking for a loan of 3Btc for short-term at your fairest rate. (less than 2 weeks) Its just an advance really untill I buy some during the week. I have cash to pay for coins now and Im just waiting a few days asking around to get the best offer I can. So there no reason I wont be able to repay. Really I'm just too impatient to wait to to quence my btc lust and too cheap to buy at market rate. I say 2 weeks rather than 1 to give my self time to hold out and and to give an extra safety bumber.  If you have the money to buy coins I would advise strongly against taking out a loan. What happens if you take this loan out and then BTC jumps by $50/100 in the next week or 2? That would not be a good situation to be in. I think that borrowing coins when the market is an incredibly bad idea. The only time people should really be looking to get loans is for a business start up venture where a bank is unlikely to loan it to you due to Bitcoin not being recognised as a currency legally. Point taken. Ive got sorted anyway thanks |

Your points make sense and are the probably the better "dont fix whats not broken" way of thinking. And as you actually work for the forum I assume you probably have a more practical approach to these than me.  With staffing, would something like that really take much manpower? It could be mostly look after itself as it really just another feature on your profile, like a user influenced version of the coin rating thing? with a comment list under a users full profile.So youd only need someone to take a look at any disputes people have with feedback they consider to be unfair right? I know its not meant to be trading site, but people do trade here, and forums are always a good spot to chat and trade with users. The way it is now neednt be changed, the feedback system could just be a something for people to see generally how a users previous deals went,and used soley at a users own risk. Obviously it would be silly to assume the feedback is a perfect reflection of someones reputation, as with anything. I dont suggest it as a major feature to be put in and change everyting, just as a small suggestion. Im just making assumptions for converstaion so I'm not saying I'm right and the site needs it, just a thought I wanted to share with everyone  |

Reputation shouldn't be summed up in a single number. You need to look at the individual ratings, and who rated them. Like you won't care about -50 from Supa's sockpuppets.
it would be a good indication of what the users overall trading rep and history is.everyone starts at 0, everytime you deal with a user you leave either add a positive +1 or negative feedback -1, the more positive or negative a total a user has would help users when trying to decide whether or not to trade with someone. Its a fair system for everyone. The problem is that kind of system can be easily abused. well the number would be just an overall rating, the users full profile could have a detailed more history showing who gave the feedback and any comments? It wouldnt be too hard to have it in such a way that only users can only leave feedback once for each trade. And an option to dispute feedback you get if you think its unfair. That would stop pretty most abuse and make the feedback relevent. I see what you mean, but I'm just describing the system used in a few particular trading sites for some time now and its worked great. |

I can remember talking to a person from ireland and they are going to open a local business for bitcoin exchange.
I thought that was a good idea and I'm not sure if he ended up doing it.
I can't seem to remember his name.
Dont know if that would really take off here. The Irish btc community is either quite small or else are very secretive planning a coin coup of some sort. The only advantage to Irish sellers would be if I could just meet them nearby and pay cash in person, otherwise is no diffferent to buying from anyone else. |

Ah I see, not really great options. It be good if users had like a feedback/rating on there profile for people to leave comments and feedback, and have a like the feedback number visible on the thread profile so you get a better idea how positve a rep they have. Even if it was just put on profiles of people trading/selling/buying as it would be good to see if the user has made reliable transactions before.

I always feel very lonely here in Ireland when it to BTC, not many people seem to know about it, even my more tech-savvy friends look blank when I offer to buy rounds with satoshis!  So are there any Irish BTC users out there on the forum? Pop in for a cuppa and say hello. Attention: Some Americans seem to think that because some random great-great-great-great-got sneezed on by a passing Irishman, you instantly adopt a deep routed heritage and roots, and are in fact have more Irish in your poop than 10 of the fattest leprachauns irregardless of any knowledge of Ireland even still exists. This does not qualify you as Irish, at all. So you better not try and sneak in here!! |
