Topic: [POLL] How will Pirateat40's debt repayment unfold? - page 2. (Read 12920 times)
It seems to me that it's pretty much all over.
It's a good way to eliminate a lot of his debt. If he pays everyone else back also it was a great way to spin all the negative Ponzi team vibes in his favor. 
As long as it's done before Mikes bet is complete. That would be epic.

The way things are going, it wouldnt suprise me if Pirate bought up his own debt for 30% face value and then repayed it all (to himself).
I don't expect we will have any news until Tuesday.
Can someone enlighten me? Did the beloved Pirateat40 run with the money?
Interesting, it seems its a 50/50 in regards to if he will pay or not.
For the rest, we alreay saw it. Lot of deposit takers seemed to have shut down (how surprising...).
People will be more cautious maybe, I dunno.

The turn of events in the forum is quite sad. I hope that when Pirate pays everyone back we can all forget about this, and move on to more happy discussions (and stop accusing without proof, like Mathew said).
What do you (and other pirate lenders) hope happens here if pirate doesn't pay back?
Some people will disappear lol. I know I won't. I'm assuming my mistakes, and still am 100% sure of Pirate not being a scammer (even in the event of a partial default).

Personally I feel that Pirate will pay back every last BTC. I just joined the forum back in April and it seemed that everyone was one big happy family at first and then all of a sudden the FUD against Pirate absolutely exploded to the point where it seems people are spending their entire day on this forum warning others about the dangers of the "Pirate Ponzi". Think about it - why are people devoting so much of their time and energy worrying about other people's money for absolutely nothing in return? The only explanation I can think of is that this is some sort of psyops that was put into action to try to discredit Bitcoin and contain its rise.
Classic! I must quote this too.

Vladimir, thank you very much for the link sir - I am ashamed by my ignorance. Here I was thinking that the Stockholm Syndrome referred to when a hostage begins to look kindly upon their captor, but you have taught me that it can also refer to when one has faith and trust in an individual who graciously allowed them to share in their business venture and made them fistfuls of cash in the process
....
You are intellectually lazy, bitsire. Is it that difficult to make a connection from people being held hostage to people's money being held hostage? Do I really need to explain you the obvious?
No need to spell it out for me - I totally see your point and understand the symbolism. Pirate is like my captor, but instead of taking me against my will I voluntarily walked into his house (ignoring the fact that there was a cube van with a heart shaped window parked out front). Next, instead of tying me up and bum blasting me in the basement, he showered me with cash and told me that I was free to go at any time. However, being the greedy piggy that I am, I stayed until he finally ran out of bills. Now I'm sitting in his living room waiting for him to get back from the bank. Before he left he told me where he was going and how long it would take, but even though he calls every now and then to let me know he's on his way home, deep down I realize he's on a flight to the Lady Boy Palace in Thailand and ain't never coming back.
You are all intellectually lazy....by writing nice pitoresque and fabulous stories smoking and mirroring the crime scene which was hertofore born out of a community spirit
with OTC Ratings and personal trust.....from there on pirate started.....may be still proud of his own reputation...went down the slippery slope of a celebrity......applauded
by the colluders ( yes all those perpetrators off the same ponzi with the oldest accounts),
feeded by coins and coins he couldn´t even attach a buiseness model to.........and spiraled BTC from uselessness after the last crash to a ponzi currency...which´s sole purpose
is to skin off the newbies to the scene....and then and thats what takes so long right now...who is allowed to run off with which percentage of the stolen funds!?
There won´t be any bitcoincommunity left, if BCST is not closed in a transparent way, where the " buiiseness model " is disclosed and common sense applied in the
aftermaths !!
There is no one fell swoop of payment coming.......so what is the payout order???
The stance in the justness of this technality seperates the criminals from the patsys and the victims!
May some discussion begin....in community spirit where common christian values are applied.
Thanks for listening
Cheers Zyk
P.S. Bitcoin should be managed as the new world reserve currency ponzi....not as a mining pool chain letter
You should post more, bitsire.

Pussy Riot will surely sing tales of your mystical Russian wisdom upon their release from the gulag!

Yes that is his job to make you feel good to keep you happy while robbing you blindly. But I have yet to be proven otherwise.
Time is a ticking....
Hmm, seems like you and me have very different definitions of the term "robbing you blindly". I did not realize that when one willingly speculates on an investment and knowingly takes on a RISK in hopes of a REWARD that they are being robbed. I guess that would make Pirate a sort of confused Robin Hood who robbed from himself to pay out 7% interest to foolish investors such as myself.
Many who have been invested with Pirate for a while now have already made back far more than they put in. Next time you go to school, make sure you get on the short bus because the wittier kids on the regular bus are simply confusing you.
....
So if you think it is not believable for a government or institution to pay people to go on forums to discredit things that aren't in their interests then you are quite naive.
It's common practice, for instance it's been a major growth area in advertising in recent years.So if you think it is not believable for a government or institution to pay people to go on forums to discredit things that aren't in their interests then you are quite naive.
EDIT: Sorry, that was OT. Voted he'll pay out within a week, he's taking a big risk though. That will be one hell of a balance by now and that's a lot of temptation
nobody knows exactly how much temptation except pirate
I highly recommend this lecture:
"The Greatest Shortcoming of the Human Race is our Inability to Understand the Exponential function."
http://www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=6A1FD147A45EF50D
Its old and poor quality and begins with things you will think are trivial and utterly obvious, but watch it entirely. Its quite an eye opener.
