Alright, so in my long convoluted quest to obtain 1.00 bitcoins, I traded Puzzle Pirates poe for paypal $10, then bought 2000 Second Life Linden dollars because I found VirWoX to exchange Linden Dollars to bitcoins. But then, since it was a new Second Life account, VirWoX wouldn't let me deposit more than 100 Linden Dollars, and the exchange rate is about 1500 Linden Dollars for 1 bitcoin. So here I am, sitting a bunch of L$, and no way of turning it into bitcoins

Is anyone interested in buying some second life linden dollars? They're pretty easy to convert into cash, Second Life itself will do direct payouts to paypal and stuff like that, it's just apparently harder to turn into bitcoins than I thought. I'll give you 2000 L$ for 1.05 bitcoins (the .05 is in case I have to pay any weird transfer fees or something like that, I'd hate to be short a couple pennies and lose out that way). It's a small transaction, and you'll get a couple dollars out of it, but mostly you'd be doing me a big favor.

Unlike traditional banking where clients have only a few account numbers, with Bitcoin people can create an unlimited number of accounts (addresses). This can be used to easily track payments, and it improves anonymity.

#bitcoin-otc is a channel on http://freenode.net/

I'm logged in pretty much 24/7.  I usually sit in #bitcoin-otc, but you can message me (RedEmerald) directly in IRC if you want to do trades.  I'm probably AFK, but I'll see your message and get back to you.

That, or just PM me here.

It'd be easier for Linden to incorporate bitcoins into their system. Maybe we should start a mass petition. Not that I actually play Second Life but if they did this I'd give it another go.
