Wasnt a hijack at all was very relevant to the op.
I am new to bitcoin and do want to start mining I have resigned myself to the fact I will not get a loan here which is understandable like I said I am not desperate for it and will end up paying it off myself anyway was just trying to save myself some money.
Despite what people may think this was a genuine post and I intend to be part of the bitcoin community and will be sticking around hence the post for help on the other topic.

You can trash Inspiron 620, with 300w psu it won't have juice to run anything.

No no no, let him learn.

Oh, because your own PC upgrade was very relevant to 7970 mining discussion, right?

This thread seems like it was made for me!
Any advices from the op or others would be grateful.
I am new to bitcoin and have just purchased a pc to mine and for gaming (cant really game on my laptop well) and I am also waiting for D3 and will be playing it intensively when it is released.
The PC I have bought was in a bundle with a 21.5 inch monitor, keyboard and mouse and was a good price however I know I need to upgrade to do the above.
Please advise me what I should/need to upgrade to do this

•Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium
•Intel Pentium Dual Core processor
•4Gb RAM
•500Gb hard drive
•USB optical mouse and keyboard included
•DVD+RW drive
•21.5 inch monitor
•8x USB port; HDMI
•Integrated graphics
•Dell Inspiron 620 desktop PC

THANKS

I IM'ed Projects with some very basic questions. He ignored the important questions, sent back a useless response to clarify the one optional question, used "u" instead of "you", used incorrect capitalization, and neglected punctuation. I'm not wasting any more time with this one.

Anybody interested?

Sure. Provide the IDs you offered, along with everything else that has been requested of you, and maybe. Until then, no.

Maybe if you had a better sob story people would be more willing to help you.

It seems like every half decent sob story around here gets at least 50 BTC.

.onion hacker forums are full of posts describing the suckers in this forum... I've seen them, and it wasn't just now, it was a few months ago.

More or less when the wave of scammers started...damn

The purpose of BTC loans is to help the BTC community. Preferably the loans are backed by mining proceeds or a BTC service.

I agree with this. Somebody must have put out the word that there are a bunch of suckers on this forum that are willing to lend to anybody for a profit ( or a good sob story) .

lol i am not desperate enough to send a pic of a shoe on my head lol
i am legit and i appreciate its hard to believe but I am - any way i can verify that i will

You were desperate enough to take out a 4000% loan, but you aren't desperate enough to take a picture with a shoe on your head? That is a huge red flag.

ahmen!

You keep saying you'll do "anything" required but won't put a shoe on your head? Apparently you'll do almost nothing.

Don't send me a pm unless you gpg encrypt it.

I vote to show peoples IP addresses in the lending section.

C'mon, we all know IPs really mean nothing except to the most lazy of scammers.

You acknowledge all of our concerns, yet do nothing to belay them. You offer to do anything to validate your identity, except taking a picture of yourself. I realize the shoe picture is a little unorthodox, but so is asking for a loan via bitcoins. It isn't demeaning and quite a few people have complied with this request.

I have no problem taking a photo of myself holding my ID and/or paper saying my username or anything else.
I will not do anything undignified though such as holding a shoe on my head.

May be suspicious but again does not mean this is a scam, it isnt.
I am sorry my spelling is not 100% I did not realise I had to have perfect spelling and grammar to be trustworthy.

Sure, you may be 100% legit, but that doesn't mean people will automatically trust you, just because you said you were. If you act suspiciously (grammar & spelling mistakes, low post count, inconsistent story, etc.), you're creating a bad image for yourself. Just a word of advice. Wink

Thanks for the advice, english language was never my strong point.
Low post count was explained from the start as was the reason for this post.
Story hasnt changed since its the truth.
I also understand people will not automatically trust me I have said that on numerous occasions and also offered various forms of ID to verify.
