Also, for the time being, you may have to update your bookmarks by adding index.php after .onion, so Linking to illegal sites is forbidden. If you bypass this censorship, you will be banned..onion/messages becomes Linking to illegal sites is forbidden. If you bypass this censorship, you will be banned..onion/index.php/messages
  Someone can explain this?

I am not sure what that means. I always use the link with /index.php at the end.

Seems expensive.... 14 btc for a g of blow?

If the cocaine is as pure as they state it is, it's a reasonably good deal.  Considering most street coke that costs around $60 a gram is about 15-30% purity, if they are really selling 70% purity stuff for $130 it's reasonable value. That's a big IF though, cocaine is notorious for people saying it's the best stuff ever because they've never had anything but total shit before, plus dealers lie about the quality of their drugs as a general rule.

I don't have any personal experience with SIlk Road coke because those days are behind me, but if I was a cocaine user I probably would check it out. Even if it's not as good as they say it is, it's almost certainly going to be lots better than whatever you can get locally, unless you live in La Paz or you have incredible connections.

Keep in mind, you can buy prescriptions as an anon.  Saves you the time and hassle of going to the pharmacy.

Be careful if you choose bitcointalk. I've heard there are a lot of scams on there.

I don't think that new site is asking for any Vendors account fee's making it easy for losers to scam.

Hello!

If the silkroad goes down, I would say that it would effect the price, up or down? I'm not sure. But I am sure that any effect would most likely be a result of peoples panic about how it will effect the price. There is an open source package that you can use to create anonymous marketplaces (Waspmarket? I don't remember exactly). And I'm sure if the silk road went down, p2p solutions would pop up.

Then again I'm someone who thinks these attacks/hacks/whatevers benefit the bitcoin community... With the push in colored coin development as a result of GLBSE and so on

.... Is blow really worth 130 a gram?
What do you mean?
I guess he means 1 gram of cocaine for 14 BTC
if it's pure blow then yeah, i can see $130/g prices. ultimately it's worth whatever people are willing to pay for it.
if i/you could sell my/your fecal matter to a research company in greenland for $130/g:

step 1)  taco bell
step 2)  prune juice
step 3)  fedex
step 4)  Huh(OMGCHAOS)
step 5)  profit!

Here I was looking at the SR Forum....


Here is a quote from DPR:

Quote
Hey gang,

Just want to keep everyone in the loop.  We are in uncharted territory in terms of the number of users accessing Silk Road.  Most of the time we've been able to keep up with the demand, but we ARE behind the curve right now.  Being the largest hidden service ever to exist and having limited options for expanding infrastructure due to the need for security means we may stay behind the curve until we can find a way to accommodate the demand.  There are several paths we are currently pursuing and we hope to be back on track very soon.  Please be patient and try using the site during off-peak times.

Cheers,
DPR


UPDATE:
Another solution has been applied and so far seems to be working.  We will continue to monitor the situation and work through this.  New registrations are temporarily disabled.

I know this has been a frustrating experience for everyone.  We aim for 100% accessibility and uptime, but have not met that goal these past few days.  I want to reiterate that we are in UNCHARTED waters.  Silk Road has gone through many phases and we have grown stronger each time.  This won't be the last time we are challenged I can assure you.  This much I can say:  we will overcome this obstacle and any other set before us.

Also, for the time being, you may have to update your bookmarks by adding index.php after .onion, so silkroadvb5piz3r.onion/messages becomes silkroadvb5piz3r.onion/index.php/messages

He is talking trolling about embedded images that are server-side. Even if this is possible somehow (I doubt it) then the server will fetch the image using Tor network and our "genius" will see Tor exit node's IP address in his logs. His posts at the end sound hillarious. How can someone know about all this stuff and have completely wrong understanding even in the basics? Maybe he is a so called "white hat" who just finished 5 year training in computer security?
Now, it's possible to set up your server so that the software running your hidden services can't access the internet except over Tor, but it's fairly non-trivial.
Most secure web servers would be double-NATed behind a stateful firewall that won't even allow the host to initiate outgoing connections to the internet. The host is only allowed to make make HTTP/S responses back to the internet. Patches, AV signatures, software updates, are all delivered from an internal host. This is standard practice to when attempting to comply with PCI-DSS, SOX, etc.

With a Tor hidden service, you just change the firewall rules so that the host can only send responses back into the Tor nework. Never allow it intiate a connection into Tor or out to the internet.

I'm pretty sure SR is not run by amateurs and I'd expect it's security to be on par with that of banks and financial institutions. Uploading a script and getting the server to execute it to give out some external IP address (which may be far away from the actual location), yeah whatever ....

(you can't torify vmware)
Sure you can. Set your VM up for host-only networking and you can use iptables to do whatever you want to the packets.

I just meant using the torify wrapper, which is trivial compared to any iptables mucking.
