mircea_popescu: "RPG characters are young. Very young. The average age seems to be 15, unless the character is a decorated and battle-hardened soldier, in which case he might even be as old as 18. Such teenagers often have skills with multiple weapons and magic, years of experience, and never ever worry about their parents telling them to come home from adventuring before bedtime."

ThickAsThieves: BitBet.us - Seemingly innocent but will scam and make money off large bets, forum member MPOE-PR is related to the scam, SatoshiDice is also related to the people who run the scam. The group of people that run the scam are mostly trashy, condescending and prideful for a reason that shall remain a mystery to us. It appears that this is the reason why the reputation of SatoshiDice was
ThickAsThieves: MPEX - Despite the fact that the security never actually stole or scammed members the owner Mircea Popescu is a disgusting person that uses the term "nigger" on his blog while also constantly putting people down and generally being a complete snob. Lied multiple times about being the owner of a successful company, if it wasn't for Satoshidice releasing stock in MPEX this person would

parseval: ergh, it's always the edge cases.. whenever there was a trade of only 1 share, coinflow would create an extra ticker for it.
ThickAsThieves: "For the record. At around 0.0008 - 0.001 I consider AMC worth a high risk investment. Not based on profit projections from the Avalon clones (that I consider 100% outrageous) but based on the fact that I dont think Ken is trying to scam anyone, he just does not understand how diff increase, hash rate and financing works."
mircea_popescu: Namworld a so then, not exactly "holding fiat"
ThickAsThieves: wait it's just a normal deposit and you are creatively bragging

jurov: more likely is that theymos will get fed up and just pull a nefario
kakobrekla: dunno might be a good deal if the whole thing [the forums] blows up
ThickAsThieves: "Unfortunately the burnt fingers were mostly weak hands. A stock is healthier without them - that's the cruel truth. The canny operators are the ones who did not sell. Today's opportunistic sellers who plan to buy back in will most likely make a loss unless they time it well. The price will be back at 0.0025 within a few days."

deadweasel: because everyone has a story.
peterl: I've been paying a small amount, but then bitcoins went up 10x which makes it hard to pay people back
usagi: Do you understand? When GLBSE shut down, a bunch of people who were colludign to manipulate the mining bonds on GLBSE decided to fuck me over
deadweasel: good luck usagi, sounds like the climb back to credibility is a long one in the bitcoin world.
deadweasel: i have seen a good-faith effort on your part to pay people back. can't fault for you for that, of course I rarely fault people for anything.
aknap3: usagi: if you post your claims on btctalk then anyone can read them whenever they want. If you post them here, you'll have a need to repeat them endlessly and you'll only earn disdain from everyone who has to filter you out of the channel
aknap3: mp: you're a meanie

mircea_popescu: the reason bonds have terms is because bonds finance a definite something, which means are part of a plan, wjhich plan necessarily has terms to be a plan
mircea_popescu: and all the other inconvenience a spontaneously collapsing of its own volition investment structure brings.
mircea_popescu: jesus fuck im trapped in the head of a 5yo! THIS COMMUNITY IS RETARDED
ThickAsThieves: making them callable gives a way out
ThickAsThieves: these bonds will sell at a premium
ThickAsThieves: what if bitcoin investment market becomes more like the meatspace market, and a reasonable APR is like 5% or whatever
jcpham: but probably a decent exit strategy given x amount of time
mircea_popescu: why is a callable bond sense ?
jcpham: like seriously, a 7 year old can create a security, igven enough 30 year olds approve it.
