Now that's funny!

Plus, he's posting so brainlessly just to raise his post count that he even fucked up your thread, Phinn.

Did the bartender get him drunk then pick-pocketed his posts? He was down to one, but now has two. At this rate, he'll never get out of Newbie.

I wouldn't say the bartender, but some moderator. He was up to 11 or 12 when I posted that lol

Two Italian sock puppet Newbies walk into the Ye Ole Astroturfing Bar of Thrills. The bartender asks the first one for some ID. The second one pipes up, "He's okay! He's with me."

how do you come up with these?

If I had to guess I would say: Medical Marijuna Grin
But he doesn't live in Cali, so that's out of the question Wink


Two bars walk into a Newbie. Wait, that ain't right. BRB! Need to take my meds.

BTW, Phin, you should do something lile this for Dwolla.
The scammers are starting to change tactics.
Becoming more common each day to find 1 post newbies trying to buy BTC for Dwolla.  Roll Eyes

Two Newbies walk up to the bar.

N1: What's up with all the same signs?
N2: Yah! And what's they mean?
Bartender: You'll ain't from these parts, eh?
N1 & N2: (in unison) Nope!
Bartender: They're written in Iowan. They all read, " Nothin' goes in, where corn comes out!" (the Newbies leave, albeit a couple minutes apart, ergo no longer holding hands)

A 17-year-old kid walks into the Do Not Use PayPal Saloon, approaching the bartender.

Bartender: You look mighty young to be a drinkin'.
Kid: Ain't here to drink, but give you a new sign to post. (hands bartender the sign)
Bartender: (after reading the sign) Thanks, kid.
Kid: (leaving) See you around!
Bartender: Wait! What's your name?
Kid: Google the sign.

The most hateful team in the world is PayPal Chargeback Department. They prove to the world that making a 200% loss in business is possible.

The story is funny because it's how most people on the internet get scammed, regardless of bitcoins. ALWAYS avoid paypal. I don't even thing the method of gifting money is safe anymore.

Threads like this make we wish this forum had more active moderators. This is why nobody takes Bitcoin seriously.

Buying or Selling Bitcoins with PayPal is Bad, MmmKay!

Not necessarily, especially worded like that. I've already bought Bitcoins with paypal and nobody got scammed or their account frozen Wink

You should say: Buying or selling Bitcoins with Paypal as a business model is Bad.

I buy and sell TONS of BTC on eBay with paypal.  No more issues then with anything else on PayPal.

Matter fact I think I sold some to psy LOL

I very much doubt that. Never bought overpriced bitcoins on ebay.
All deals were made here on the forum, and you weren't one of the persons who sold to me, at least not with this username Tongue

Hey how do I get in this WoT thing?

The #bitcoin-otc Web of Trust (WoT) is an an irc-based web of trust network.   You'll need to install GPG to use it:

Installation:
 - http://wiki.bitcoin-otc.com/wiki/GPG_authentication#Third-party_guides

Once you've registered, others with whom you've traded can rate you:
 - http://bitcoin-otc.com/viewratings.php

Also, once registered you can place orders in the #bitcoin-otc marketplace:
 - http://bitcoin-otc.com/vieworderbook.php

You don't even need to be registered to chat with other -otc users in the foyer:
 - http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=#bitcoin-otc-foyer

you got hacked bitch!
Why don't you mind you're your own fuckin' business.

That was a joke, by the way.  [Update: Oh, and quoted exactly as it existed in the OP.]  Though I do make trades through #bitcoin-otc where I'm using PayPal to buy or sell bitcoins or MTGUSD.   The -otc Web of Trust (WoT) helps signficantly, for both sides.

Hey how do I get in this WoT thing?
