I agree 100%. This whole ripple thing seems very, very slimy.
I even wonder whether it isn't a government effort to hijack Bitcoin.

thanks for the warning
Yeah, we had been warned many times,
Thanks for this post...though seems like everyone on here is paranoid of something.
Don't you mean waring?
I was already wary of Ripple before your waring, but thanks anyway. 
I have been sufficiently wared, thanks.
Seriously, though, thanks for confirming my already-existing suspicions about Ripple. They want to centralize Bitcoin, which is trying to be a decentralized currency. Sounds incompatible to me.

thank you for the warning 
I have just been at bitcoin conference in san Jose ca, this was a great thing for bitcoin. One thing I noticed while at the conference is there where heaps of ripple employees/promoters their pretending to be bitcoin users and supporters. They where very sneaky and have also disguised themselves on this forum as bitcoin users by building up lots of posts. Have have seen ripple for what it is now. ripple is a group of people trying to fool people into using their system and their own crypto currency to get rich and hold a monopoly on the market.
ripple is not decentralized.
ripple is polluting bitcoin. they do not like bitcoin and this can be seen easily when speaking to them face to face. don't be fooled by clever marketing.
Ripple should only ever be discussed in alternate crypto section.
