kakobrekla: copied by using 9/11 to get ratings up?
BTC-Mining: No problem Ignatius. Just trying to keep what's known/claimed posted somewhere instead of people having to scour the forum. It's really a mess.
rg: now the simpsons is back to just plain sucking
rg: even the simpsons copied them for a while
rg: they pioneered that type of 'comedy'

BTC-Mining: Eh, all shows turn bad.
rg: i reember that
rg: a friend of mine still thinks 9/11 should be a national holiday
BTC-Mining: I remember in Family Guy when Lois ran for mayor. Actual speeches left people there not impressed. She said 9/11. The crowd went crazy cheering. So her speech afterward were just repeating "9/11" over and over. Kept the crowd happy.
Ignatius-otc: thanks for the info post BTC-Mining
pigeons: or else the terrorists win

BTC-Mining: Works too.
BTC-Mining: Gets everyone together... to still be crazy?
rg: god damn terrorists

rg: no one finds ALL the bugs
mircea_popescu: right. why trust a. he found them all b. he can fix them ?

SlipFaunders: I have not talked to him since earlier.
mircea_popescu: SlipFaunders what more did nefario have to say ?
MoneyIsDebt: Good timing for once
pigeons: rg are you trolling or you really think there is no reason to think glbse is toast?
Luceo: I actually like mpex but the fee does keep out a lot of the smaller traders which can hurt liquidity in such a small market
mircea_popescu: are we going to go into a politically corect spiral nao ?
Luceo: mircea_popescu: No, I was sarcastically remarking that the fee tends to keep out the sunday traders
mircea_popescu: "I am so sorry.. wtf.... glbse shut down.... i have been talking about this for days.. my life ssvings is gone,,,"
mircea_popescu: leaving aside the fact that i never heard of a place with no idiots.
BTC-Mining: I'm pretty sure I never used that term.
mircea_popescu: i pointed out that places built on idiots eventually collapse.
mircea_popescu: dude, he said he doesn't like mpex cause there's no idiots to exploit
Luceo: BTC-Mining: Exploitation isn't always bad, if people are willing to price badly you may as well exploit that
BTC-Mining: so... trading on the market is explotation now? =P
rg: i am proud to say i am not subscribed to ANY threads
Diablo-D3: you're subscribed to the dmc thread, right?
Diablo-D3: yeah well, I have trouble giving a shit anymore
rg: theres no reason to think GLBSE is destroyed for any reason
rg: stop saying shit like that
mircea_popescu: trying to invest in the sense of "exploting idiots" never works aout, it's pretty much the same thing as trying to time a ponzi.
mircea_popescu: take BTC-Mining as a fine example. he thinks he;'s been exploiting idiots
rg: how many tickets left
mircea_popescu: Luceo these exploits tend to end up blowing in your face
Luceo: mircea_popescu: The reason I dont like the reg fee at mpex is that you keep all the idiots out so I cant just exploit them for easy btc :(
rg: what ever happened to that raffle
Luceo: I might try OT
asa1024: ok ty sir!
mircea_popescu: or else, you know... wait for it to be 50
asa1024: ty luceo for the answer!!
Luceo: But its higher trading fees
Luceo: asa1024: afaik coinbr users just use the coinbr account so they dont pay mpex fees
asa1024: mircea_popescu: would the fee also include current beta testers of coinbr.com?
Luceo: Would have thought you'd want to seize the fallout from GLBSE
Diablo-D3: mircea_popescu: the big irony is, I just announced officially Im shutting DMC down due to nefario's incompetence
Luceo: Will make the market less liquid
Luceo: Not too keen on the 30 BTC fee for mpex :/

Luceo: mircea_popescu: Fuck the forum dwellers, I'd rather hear the truth
Diablo-D3: nefario ran away with all the money
Luceo: Does no one ever get bored of people not being able to comment?
