Yeah your main problem would be that this is an internet forum where people talk about bitcoin and not whatever you think a site it is.

mtgox.com

And another one falls victim to the horrible insecurity that is Mt Gox.

But, why are you storing your coins there INSTEAD of your wallet???  You should be having your mining payouts sent to your wallet, and only send from your wallet to the exchange of your choice (in this case Gox) when you are wanting to sell.

Yeah, MtGox.com has some problems about Account Security these days. You should keep your coins on a safe wallet, you can use Blockchain.info but i heavily recommend bitcoin-qt.

IF (and thats a 24pt big IF) you want to store your coins there, invest in a Yubi Key from Gox for 2-factor authentication.  Will also work on Blockchain.info if you choose to store them there which is much more secure.  All good sites offer some sort of 2-factor security.  But, the other safe bet is just a good old school local wallet.

Do not use an online exchange like Gox or BTC-E to store your coins, use a wallet (either online or local).  Only once you are ready to sell should you send your coins to the exchange, process your sell, withdrawal your cash, and be done with it.

I do not some who keep a small amount of coins/money on their exchange but its simply for buying and selling as the market fluctuates.  They use a good strong password and they use 2-factor security.  But, they know that its not 100% secure and they could lose what they have their but they have accepted that risk.

See? There's the problem again. You're talking about mythical "websites" instead of telling us which websites. It's like calling the doctor by phone and saying "Doctor, when I do this, it hurts!" - "Well, what are you doing?" - "This."

Anyways, I'm pretty sure MtGOX doesn't sell Newegg giftcards.

On the other hand I could be wrong. They were an exchange for Magic the Gathering cards after all. Maybe they diversified.

You might wanna check who you're talking to. I was adressing OP's incessant need to talk about "websites" (in this case ' from both websites it says there wasnt any transactions' ) instead of regaling us with the names of these "websites".

Who the fuck is we? You weren't the one that started this thread. And you're the only one that mentioned btc-e, and that was in reply to the op and his posts.

Zanatos and kierstan stop trolling. What's interesting, is that bit777 has identified a bunch of new accounts, with a name and numbers at the end spamming posts that make no sense so they can earn coins for their signature line.... hmmm...

just buy some computer parts from bitcoinstore.com with your bitcoins. they offer cheaper prices than newegg and tigerdirect on almost every item. their shipping is much faster as well. i ordered a psu two case fans and a graphics card and it was at my house in 3 days.

My negative trust rating is reflective of a personal vendetta by someone on default trust.

yeah, it still exists. their prices went up a little bit though. still comparative with newegg and tigerdirect. and on the note about them whiffing their target, it didn't help that bitcoins took a dip from 120 to 67 recently. i just checked and their site is still up. if you wanna know whether they will continue to stay in business pm MemoryDealers

Yes, me too have lost my bitcoins I've never received!!   Could someone please return them??  I you have them, just post them here.

Seriously --- take a look at the large orderbook just now at MtGox --- 8,000 BTCs JUST changed hands in one transaction!   Bid was placed for 76.05 and it just sat there unexecuted for more than an hour, but the bid was lowered by a miniscule amount, and immediately executed at 76.00 USD.

He's right guys. I had bitcoins stored on this one site and now they're gone. Can anyone please get a hold of the owner and ask them to look into it? Thanks!

Trolling?  Do you know the definition of the word? I provided answers to, what I thought, was a question about what sites we were referring to.  The only thing that happened is I mistook who he was talking to, and thats my bad.  No one is making an argument for arguments sake so who is trolling?
