man, i'm not lookin for fights, nor want to discuss with somebody who doesn't even read my posts. peace&love .
Thanks for all you've done decondor! Perhaps the runes could all be auctioned off, rather than left either unsold or wasted; that way you earn some money back, and the runes are returned to the community! While it may not sell for as high as they are listed on your site, I think it would drum up more interest overall, and give you more back in the end.
Find it interesting that someone called you out for mining crypto currencies and then your saying you need to shut down a few days later. Your site has always been sketchy at best, and i'm still 99% convinced that your a current or former dog employee and they let you stay in business because you were making them money from selling single runes for a much more expensive price, given that poxnora isn't allowed to do so for whatever reasons. Also- Non-profit haha, further acknowledges your sketchy. Non profit is a good way to get tax exempt status and not have people ask a lot of questions, similar to churches. Ah well toodles
@super71 Your unsalted and especially un-grounded opinion is exactly what I talked about. I have no reason to convince anyone anymore and you are entitled to your opinion, actually I think I can only thank you for the lesson thought. For starters: I don't have massive amounts of money, I actually sell my house because I need the time, the profit(yes 2008 all over again, it's insane nothing actually changed) of my house actually buys me that. I like how @Baskitkase referencing about how certain things were true for the majority of human history. For all mayor change in society this was always true. Don't forget we are in society that is based on technology from 200 years ago. Yes parts of it changed drastically changed but the fundamentals really did not. If I ever achieved any credits for running poxbox I want to put them into this message: The fundamentals on which current society is build on is changing under your feet. This will be a change for the greater good if led in the right direction. It will redefine how we view our purpose in life, the paradigm shift will be massive. I just choose to be one of the people who want to make this go this in the right direction. Distributed Ledger Technology will be the part I will be focusing on, but it is definitively not the only part that is making this possible. Even though I am Dutch, no I am not smoking anything (yes I removed some of the adds)
As I am sad to see this man who put much effort into poxbox go... I will be the one to say that if you thought an automated system of giving out runes and putting prices on them were ever great for a TRADING CARD GAME you are sorely mistaken. I will not be humble.
Sounds like progressive socialism. "Hey you rich people are bad for being responsible with your money and figuring out how to invest. Give it to us so we can redistribute it to all the people who don't have as much as you cuz we say so!"
Never mind, baskitkase has pretty much already covered everything. If dogz had no problem turning a blind eye to PB back when it was needed, it should not have a problem now.
As a person in the finance industry, I do believe cryptocurrencies have some sort of possibility, after they work out some basic flaws in the form of a new currency. (The heavy currency fluctuation by itself makes it hard to be realistically used as a "store of wealth" or "medium of exchange".) That being said I do think bitcoin it self is nothing but a wave dragging in all the innocently ignorantly ambitious, and the crash will be yet another painful outcome for the middle-class. Additionally I consider myself open-minded, but you still sound like a "crazy" hippie to me. I'd advise less talk of "greater good" and "shifting under your feet". As true as the following may be, you will find much more success convincing the important people you encounter if you use professional grounded language. All the best decondor !
And it could have been the case all along. Yet here we are. Yeah, man, if only there had been alternatives for years, If only it had been pinned as an actual issue. If only. I get everyone wants to see this thrive and so do I even though I don't even log in and haven't for quite a while, but continuously trying to grasp for things and having it depend on the community to make it work gets old after a while. Decondor's collection will, and more importantly shouldn't, make no difference whatsoever and it's not up to him to fund community held events. Start directing your requests towards the people responsible for this game and you may get somewhere.
We did. That's why the January tournament is sponsored by Greens. Most of us just want to preserve Olaf's stash so that it doesn't simply die off.
It'll be preserved. In his account. Unless you pay or he decides otherwise. That's all there is to it. Rune circulation should have never been an issue to begin with. Can't lose what you never had, can you?
Because, again, everyone understood it has to exist. Now ever since the Rune Forge doesn't and Owls have every right to go with a Cease and Desist order.
