Topic: Contribute To Bitcoin Economy... - page 2. (Read 4474 times)

Funny enough, in your trolling you did manage to touch on another topic that is a valid concern. I know you don't care to think about things in a way that isn't completely ignorant of common sense, but a hero account sells for over 1 BTC. No idea what a staff account would sell for, but trusted accounts would hypothetically cost more. You mentioned you could buy an account that outranks hilariousandco for the price of a decent dinner. Correct me if I'm wrong but Legendary Accounts sell for over 2 BTC. I'd say $500 is a pretty decent dissuasion. What keeps people from buying trusted accounts is the cost. Accounts are worth more than their reputation, their value is also derived from the months/years put into them. So say I could buy a mildly trusted Legendary account for 5 BTC, I might find someone who would trust me with a couple BTC. If I scammed them or used the account to commit trust abuse, I'd be out some money. That said, if you still believe that scammers aren't financially motivated, and they scam just for giggles, I guess that logic wont make sense to you. But most people would agree that scammers aren't about losing money on a scam.

*edit* Still on topic, something else you mentioned was that if you could sell Ebay accounts, then Ebay's feedback system would be worthless. Again you are correct. Check the digital goods section. I took a quick peak and I saw more than a few Ebay accounts for sale. The 10% sellers fees are what make up for Ebay being a scammers haven. Ebay will just pay you back sometimes because that is their business model.

I posted here because you are right though, the thread is going off topic. Everyone please try to return to the topic in the OP. As long as TerminatorXL wants to debate account selling, they should be allowed to. Before you say I'm trying to save face or something, I just think the thread is pointless, and will die itself since you don't actually have anything to say rather than insults and off topic arguments.

Cowardice plays no part in a forum where established, trusted accounts are bought and sold. What, exactly, would I be risking, above the price of a decent dinner?
Simply don't want to give you the satisfaction of knowing you've cost me the price of a hero account.
Perhaps "too thrifty," but "cowardly"?
Nah.

On a more practical note:
Is there any reason, other than butthurt & your pay-to-spam sig ad, for you continuing to shit up this thread?

@redsn0w: The intent of this thread was not to fight, but to discuss.
You've asked me to explain why I'm not posting from my main account, and I did.
If my case relied on reputation rather than facts and logic, I would have bought a trusted account to post with.

I think it is better to "fight" with your main account, because as hilariousandco said:



However I think this thread will not have a real end, it will be only a post to continue argue without resolve any problem.

And yet you're still here thus proving yourself and any of these silly allegations wrong, though I suspect you're trying to get yourself banned so you can say look! told you so much like cozylife did. The only reason you're using an alt is because you're a coward and a petty troll. And I'm not the subject of that article, the Pulitzer Prize winning Rick Mac Gillis just happened to mention me in his damning expose of the corruption here at bitcointalk. I found it quite humorous but also equally sad at the same time.

Because you would know, had you bothered to read this thread before asking. I admit, many have derailed this thread with bitter personal attacks and other catty faggotry, making it a pain to read. Here's the TL;DR:

The muppet defending himself is the subject of this story here:

A vindictive little forum accounts dealer going by Quickseller, ACCTSeller, etc., etc. has already left this account a nef trust rating, removing it the following day, for reasons unknown.

You can see why I'm hesitant to use my main account.

@koelen3: you too. Read the whole thread; the issue has been addressed.
It's not as much about accounts being sold, it's that they're being sold right here, on bitcointalk, with staffers facilitating the deals.

@hilariousandco: UR like, totally OG

As it has been said many times that it is impossible to detect all sold accounts so it's better to allow it.
If you really got so many problems , go make your own forum bitch. Though it is true that the DG and Auc. Section is full of Account selling Threads but well it's a marketplace and people are supposed to sell things/DG there . So why not forum accounts when it's legal ?
Stop whining -_-

I never said it was my first account, I said it was my main one. And I bought my first coins around £50-70, so still quite in profit, but I think you've lost your composure now and have just descended into making stuff up and acting childish. Well done. Carry on.

I think this thread should be moved in the Off topic (and also other thread that are here in the meta section).



Why are you fighting from your 'alt account', why don't you use your main account?

^^Alrighty then, belligerent n00by n00b confirmed.  
Discovered bitcoin & joined the forum at peak price, right before the bubble burst.
Now broke, angry, & eking out a living by white-knighting various petty crooks.

Carry on

No it isn't. It is my main one. There is no backpedaling. I don't see where I ever said I had another either, but I think you obviously read what you want to believe. Step up your game, troll  .

More backpedaling.


You know who else asked for proof of a sock? Your buddy Quickseller. Right before being cornered into admitting he was ACCTSeller.

Step up your game, scruffy

This is my main one. And I thought I was just a scruffy janitor? My rep should be irrelevant if all I do is clean up mess but now you think we should be a superior class. Make your mind up.

My reputation is irrelevant, I'm not a forum staffer. Forum bureaucrats, wielding their awesome power over us hoi polloi, must abide by higher standards.
Now what's your main account, sock?

P.S. Your buddy Quickseller/ACCTSeller et. al., the other captain of bitcointalk economy, took away the neg trust for some reason

Why the backpedaling? He was so sure...

Which do you belong to, sock. Not joking.


Hahahaha at everything you've come out with.


Thanks. Will do.

Not joking.
Which account do you belong to, sock?

>some say profiteers others say entrepreneurs
Hahahahaha

>don't profit a cent off of account sales
because "sleazebag-in-waiting, sucking up through the ranks." Just keep munching the right D, and you'll get there, my enterprising young friend

Satoshi. Forgot my password to my account and wallets though and theymos wont let me have it back cos I can't sign a message. Bad times. Probably could sell that account for a pretty penny too .


I don't profit a cent off of account sales, but some say profiteers others say entrepreneurs and some just futilely whinge at everything they are powerless to change.

You mean this is not your main account? Shocking!
So, which is your main account, you totally legit above-board staffer you? And how many more have you got, if it's not indelicate to ask?


No, I'm talking about those who you think are 'profiteering sleazebags' who you laughably think you can take down or even change anything here. You're powerless to do anything apart from low to mid range troll. And scruffy lol. These are some quality insults/trollings you're coming out with.
