The trust scores you see are subjective; they will change depending on who you have in your trust list. |

Reasons: - I get requests from people with 1 post wanting an account which means either someone told them or they have a sock puppet account.
- I don't want this to spiral out of control, so adding even this small limitation makes my life much easier to manage.
- I trust my lenders and trust they know who is a good candidate and who isn't.
If I find that I have lenders referring crappy clients to me I'll hold them responsible, close their accounts and go on about my day. I'm trying to build a core to a much bigger operation here and I think this is the best way to attack it. Yeah I understand what you're trying to achieve, just not why you thought this would save headaches. I suppose what I'm really asking, is: What do you consider a good candidate as a lender? |

What do you consider a good candidate as a lender?
maybe someone that doesn't nag him to withdraw 0.12 btc everyday for their bittleships addiction? |

Update
I've removed the On-Demand service and the now named Savings account has a minimum of 100 BTC to start.
The new account minimum is only for new accounts.
Thanks

OP, since you will only accept referrals, then are you saying current lenders can advertise it on the forum?
I know you have strict rules about that in the past when things got heated up with ineeduser*

As long as they are dealing with me directly I am fine with it. What I don't want to see is people advertising that they can lend through them to me. |

Hi,
you posted saying you are a great lender.
how much BTC you have?
We can start by you lending me some BTC, then if you are trustworthy, I will refer you to pirate.
Let me know.
thanks for the offer, but you don't mention your terms & what's this about "if you are trustworthy" - I'm offering to lend BTC not trying to borrow them so how exactly can I be untrustworthy, Pirate already knows that I've requested a new account & can give me one or not as he chooses but I'm not going to start jumping through a bunch of hoops with other forum members just to have the privilege - also posting this to the thread so he & others can see how it's working out or not |

Well, nobody needs a referral right now because storage is still 0 BTC  +1 and all requests for more money seem to be filled within a very short time. |
Our family was terrorized by Homeland Security. Read all about it here: http://www.jmwagner.com/ and http://www.burtw.com/ Any donations to help us recover from the $300,000 in legal fees and forced donations to the Federal Asset Forfeiture slush fund are greatly appreciated! |

You're right, all lenders are trustworthy insofar as the loan, but what pirate meant was that he does not want "bad money" in his program. |

Nope, eventually everything becomes tainted and nothing is clean. It comes down to the degree of taintedness. |

Hi Otoh,
Since you're an active lender on the forums, I'm wondering if you could give me a loan of a few hundred BTC on March the 1st, for 10% monthly interest. I'd repay the loan in 30 days (Mar 31). I've repaid three large loans (>$1000 value) already on this forum.
Thanks!
inau
many thanks for the offer but wouldn't you just then be lending them on to Pirate next time he opens a funding window so that I'll carry his risk but for a lower profit as you're the go between which means I carry a double risk from first Pirate & then from yourself, no offense & you're justified in doing this in the circumstances but I would rather wait for Pirate to invite me on board his brigandier himself which he prob won't bother to do in any hurry or at all if I supply him funds indirectly via you, please to excuse me if I have made incorrect assumptions re this & to let me know good luck with your ventures in the interests of openness, re restricting new accounts & how that plays out |

EDIT: Your account is not set to reinvest so you get a payment and not a deposit. It's possible to have an account that automatically reinvests and does not pay out? If so, would it be possible to change my account to that mode? |
