Hey guys,
New to Bitcoin, but beginning to appreciate the real potential of digital currencies.
So far I've spent a bit of time reading through here as a guest, mostly following
the epic pirate saga that seems to have plagued the community as of late
Don't let a couple as$holes discourage the adoption of digital currencies!
Welcome to the forums, PC. Good handle, good post. Sagas like Pirateat40's scam are captivating at first, but after a time become a touch boring unless of course you were unfortunate to be involved in the mess.
I'm in a slightly generous frame of mind, would you like a first-post tip? I'll need a Bitcoin address from you.

Many of us sleazy "panhandlers" on the forum provide a tips address in our .sigs.
