There are a lot of predictions on this forum, but I don't see much in the way of enduring faith.  If you actually believe your words, prove it by writing them into the blockchain.  That way they will be stored in Bitcoin forever, for all to see for all time.  There will be no running away from your predictions then, and no doubting your accuracy when you get them right.

The link below is for the Predictions forum.  You need to log in with a Google account (again going back to you standing by your word).  It allows you to turn your message into a Bitcoin Transaction, which can be decoded again by anyone who uses the Bit-Comm protocol, which can be found in the About section.  The technology is open to all, and your words will be recorded for as long as Bitcoin continues to exist.

Most of the posts made here are mirrored by this site, so there is no point deleting or editing predictions here.

Predictions recorded using your method would probably last longer than those recorded here though.

They will last for all of time, or at least as long as Bitcoin itself survives.

the problem is, its become so that people don't care about being *right*.

people seem to only care about other people being wrong.

sad but true.

Partially, but I've seen quite a few threads with titles along the lines of "I WAS RIGHT AND YOU WERE WRONG YOU FUCKING RETARDS". The authors clearly care about their predictions being right, but as you say it's extremely important to them that other people were wrong.

I also think that. It is always easier to say that others are wrong

I've recorded for all time in the blockchain my prediction that Bitstamp is done for, and we can expect few refunds to depositors, if any.
