This is what everyone in this forum should do, leave the forum, go to another forum that isn't run by Scamming Administrators such as John and Theymos. Anyone that leaves for 3months+ and still hasn't returned, who also has 1,000 Bitcoins, is a scammer. No way around it.

I've thought of countless situations John could be in, hospitol, too much hw, moving to another place, working in a job, starting a new project, kidnapped by somalian pirates, sent to Narnia.. and in all those situations, he has access to a Computer(any decent somalian pirateship has a Macbook these days..). The only conclusion here is that John realized he needed the money to pay for his college tuition, also realized that no one has any real info about him besides a fake facebook profile, and got the Ok from Theymos to go ahead and do the scam.


Think about it, John's only handling 1,000 Bitcoins, thats less than 800k in real life, plus he has staff status. 800k is a pretty small amount compared to say 10,000 bitcoins. He probably thinks that 1k Bitcoins is the ideal amount he should scam, since he thinks its too "little" for the authorities to charge him for or some shit..He's a college kid for christ sakes.

Overall Message: John k=scammer, Theymos=scammer and liar, Leave Bitcointalk.org, find/make another forums.
