Looking for Short-Term, Micro-Loan

[EthanB]

I am interested in establishing a little bit of back-and-forth between the more experienced/reputable members and myself. I am seeking to establish professional connections and prove that I am trustworthy around this community.

I am seeking a loan of BTC.0035 and I will return BTC.005 within 24-hours.

Which address shall I send loan to?

[--Encrypted--]

no collateral no loan for newbies, sorry. even if the amount is very low.
you'll only get a negative feedback asking for a loan with no collateral while you're still a newbie.

just wait for someone to sell you some BTC.

[Patejl]

Well mate you were told that you shouldn't lend solely for the reason of trust farming now have a look at the negative trust you have.

[Vod]

I gave him negative trust for three reasons:

1) Newbie asking for no collateral loan
2) Modifying his loan request to remove the words "Earning trust"
3) Asking to buy bitcoin using the reversible currency paypal.

[EthanB]

I'm not "trust farming", I'm establishing connections with bitcoins members that matter, pay-it-forward, and are genuinely nice people. You can flame, de-trust and do whatever you please. I have done nothing wrong, I am not engaging in "scammy" behaviour, and I am quickly learning that a community that is extremely welcoming can have just as many clique-y conservatives .

I gave him negative trust for three reasons:

1) Newbie asking for no collateral loan
2) Modifying his loan request to remove the words "Earning trust"
3) Asking to buy bitcoin using the reversible currency paypal.

1) It's less than a dollar
2) I changed it after realizing the word "trust" isn't an adjective on this forum, it's a noun. I had not known "trust" was even a "currency" of sorts here. I had meant literally what I had said, establishing valuable connection with bitcoin enthusiasts.
3) I was offering MULTIPLE methods to purchase BTC, Paypal, WESTERN UNION, MONEY GRAM, or Skrill.

Carry on, Kappa.

[Vod]

Reason: Establishing connections / getting my name out to the people who matter in this community. Showing that I'm trustworthy.

You succeeded.   

[EthanB]

I will not be scared away from carrying on legitimate business just because you deem it "scammy" , yet you have nothing but an outside perspective. You have never even attempted to transact with me, and therefore you are making claims which hold no merit beyond your 1400-post count...

It just seems a little absurd to assume the "Guilty because I'm legendary and say so" model.

1JHdBzXuGpd23f1hywwsgpNjjSzVpbRBLC will be the BTC address I'll accept the collateral-free loan, please and thank you.

That's one way to shoot the bird before it can fly.

funny thing is OP just registered yesterday. made 30+ post all in correct sections. and yet still don't know how the users feel about newbies and paypal/loan.

[Vod]

3) I was offering MULTIPLE methods to purchase BTC, Paypal, WESTERN UNION, MONEY GRAM, or Skrill.

I'm interested in buying $50-$100 BTC on Paypal if you're willing to use an escrow or go first

Now he has resorted to outright lying.  

Will be interesting to see if TheGr33k funds this loan....

Knowing how users feel about newbies and paypal/loan, and knowing what would be reasonable, morale and just are two completely different things.. Evidently.
There's NO reason I should get negatively repped for the POSITIVE , SMOOTH, and LEGITIMATE transaction(s) I've performed in my short time here.

Mis-quoting me doesn't make your position any better, in fact it makes you look like you're unable to even process the most blatant context-clues. That was a REPLY to another newbie's thread who WANTED paypal for his BTC. Yet, it's funny because if I was lying about offering other payment methods then I wonder how I bought these BTC with Skrill...

[Vod]

Original loan request for those that may not have seen it on the other thread:

Loan Amount: BTC.0035
Amount to be repaid: BTC.005
Repayment Date: 24-Hours
Collateral: None
Reason: Earning trust
Bitcoin Address: 1JHdBzXuGpd23f1hywwsgpNjjSzVpbRBLC

This, on top of looking to buy bitcoin with paypal, makes this user untrustworthy and hence the legitimate feedback.

Open and shut case.

[Patejl]

Well I don't think it will have any visible effect as Vod's feedback but giving you a negative anyway, you were warned in advance of the consequenses if you wanted to trust farm

[--Encrypted--]

actually, looks like he already did some trade with Jakez here (transaction proof). don't think they're the same person.

doesn't change the fact that he asked for a no collateral loan and is hunting for trust, though. and actually just made it worse because OP actually have a lot more than 0.0035BTC

Even after thoroughly explaining my ignorance to the fact that "trust" is a tangible currency on this forum, you're going to repeat yourself? I did not mean earning +1's, +ve's, or whatever they are called. I was talking about TRUST, like that which is held between two reputable businessmen, friends and family.

Yet, you're still so hell-bent on repeating yourself to prove to the community how horrible of a person I am.. When EVERY single transaction has ended positively. You are bored, and have no right to impede on the building of my reputation; by slandering it and negatively repping me you're showing your true colors, and that's all that needs to be said.

Damn.  Guess I'll have to live with that reputation, scammer.

That's interesting.  I wonder if TheGr33k and the OP are the same person.  Certainly would explain why he is so willing to make the loan to such a high risk.

I'm just distraught when I receive negative rep for making a Loan-request thread after being specifically told to do so by my lender.

Loan Amount: BTC.0035
Amount to be repaid: BTC.005
Repayment Date: 24-Hours
Collateral: None
Reason: Establishing connections / getting my name out to the people who matter in this community. Showing that I'm trustworthy.
Bitcoin Address: 1JHdBzXuGpd23f1hywwsgpNjjSzVpbRBLC

I will give this loan to you. Can you post a thread in lending section? I know you will repay back as you won't be risking the services you are providing for just 0.0035.
Please post a new thread and I will grant you this loan. PM me once done.

Enjoy your power-trip, thanks for ruining my reputation before it got started and trashing my thread like a bull in a china shop.

I didn't give you negative trust for making a new thread.  But it does help in keeping the scams sorted out - thank you.
