Yes i got a new server that has a few websites being hosted on it and it took sometime for dns servers to redirect correctly. Sorry for any confusion this has caused CIB will be back online in march(maybe sooner).

FYI, the Sarah Sparkles thread is here ("Private Cams")- https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/private-cams-41217
Analysis by a system administrator (I have no involvement in this situation, just explaining one way this could happen): In the Apache webserver, using name-based virtual hosts, if SS and CIB used the same IP address and the CIB configuration was removed (or possibly skipped due to a missing directory), and no default site was configured, the SS site would show up if it was the first site.  I don't expect this was a result of foul play, as it's very common to share an IP address between websites.


As an IT admin who hosts sites I'll also say this is common and happens on IIS based hosting as well.

senbonzakura, you need to get this fixed as soon as you can.  It looks really bad to have http://www.cheaperinbitcoins.com/ redirect to porn.

what do you mean TraderEdgeDice ? cheaperinbitcoins.com is offline now. will relaunch soon (somewhere in march)
It was previously redirecting to sarahsparkles.net or something like that. Suggestive image of a woman saying the website's "cumming soon." :s

Here's what I have from my history log for the link (no cache): http://www.cheaperinbitcoins.com/" style="background-image: url(chrome://favicon/http://www.cheaperinbitcoins.com/); " id="id-124">SarahSparkles.net - Cumming Soon!

ETA: SarahSparkles.net & cheaperinbitcoins.com use the same ISP, same registrar, both have an alleged owner who uses Hotmail, but they have different contact info. Hm.

One of the Islamic Bank of Bitcoin's assets is a soon to be porn site.

That doesn't inspire legitimacy.  Have you talked to cheaperinbitcoins about this problem?  If they turned upside down, you probably should have bought the domain.

Can we get this as a sticky? so its easy to find ?

Pretty please ?

As general "stickies" go, This isnt really, Sticky worthy, But then again, In another light, This is the most populated thread in this deticated "lending" board.
So, Yes, I would as to sticky it too, But i think thats already been done, Either that or people are Constantly last posting in here lol
As I said earlier, as long as the IBB is pretty much the only game in town, this will remain stickied. When that changes, this will either be unstickied or the other group's post will be stickied. I haven't quite decided which way to do it yet.

While I do commend you, IBB, for the wonderful service that you provide to so many members of this community, I must express my dissatisfaction with one qualification. I think it is unfair to base your lending decision on age. Not only is the client's age nearly impossible to verify, but it is irrelevant. I request that you rescind all qualifications regarding age. The ageist policy contributes to the bigotry against those under 18. Your other qualifications are all sensible, and can be related to the likelihood that the client will repay their debts. However, your current rules are prejudiced and based on stereotypes that need to be abolished from society. It is unfortunate that your organization is assisting in the spread of these wrong, discriminatory views. Please revise your conditions.

It's illegal in the United States for a minor to enter into a contractual obligation without the consent of a guardian. If he is operating a business, he needs to operate it kosher. Which is why he has "ageist" policies.

I've just realized somthing; wouldn't selling debt allow scammers to get loans and then buy their own debt and keep the difference?

Yup. You could always bar re-acquisition either in the original contract or when the debt is resold. If the person conspired with a 3rd party, the 3rd party would be pretty dumb not enforcing the full debt.

yes, if you follow the IBB thread in project development section you would see how we make money.

IBB is a bitcoin business, doing business 'pseudonymously' as explodicle said.

we are not registered anywhere.

"All of it sounds super fishy, and I really don't like where this is going"

it doesnt sound fishy to my investors, if it was fishy then they would have sold all their shares while share prices are up.

like i said, even if we have full details  name/address etc.. that is no guarantee they will pay back the loan.

out of around 25 loans IBB provided, only around 3 have not repaid, so most have repaid.

Everything you see in IBB, logos, banners, joint venture bitcoin businesses listed on glbse, all done through forum , to help bitcoin business in forum.

So even if we dont make that much money, we are helping people.

{approx 4 btc will be paid in dividends soon}
Do you have a lot of investors? Also what do you want ibb to be in the future?

It would be very hard to secure loans via the Internet. Especially the way you're doing it. No offense, I just hate seeing good Bitcoins go to scammers who don't give a damn about this community or Bitcoins in general. You are sort of facilitating bad behavior by literally giving away free money to strangers. Money that isn't even yours (you got most of it from GLBSE) therefore you see no true value in it, other than people saying it's worth "this". I like your idea for Interest free loans, but whats the point of your bank existing in the first place? How do YOU make money? All of it sounds super fishy, and I really don't like where this is going, even if you really are the one loosing money. I say please change your practices and make it look like you're at-least trying to turn this into a legitimate business, otherwise it looks like a poorly planned HYIP...

He explains how he makes money here: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/--38544

He also doesn't give money to COMPLETE strangers, you need 200 posts, yada yada. Being able to do business pseudonymously is one of the primary reasons to use Bitcoin in general.

I can't argue with that reason. As long as you encourage prosecution of everyone who don't pay back their loans, as an investor looking solely to make a profit, I would definitely prefer that you only lend to easily-prosecutable persons, which don't include minors.

If IBB sells their debts, then, in order to please investors, they should probably not lend to those who cannot be prosecuted. This includes members of countries which don't have somebody willing to buy IBB's debts or competent contract laws. They should also avoid those who can legally void a contract, such as minors.
