Hey, cool whoever split and re-named this thread.  I didn't know it could be done.

I was just looking again at SA, and it looks like they closed down the last Bitcoin thread which is why it ceased on 12/12.  Maybe this thread will create some more interest and they'll come back.

If BTC values continue to go up I would be surprise if any of them are going to come back with egg all over their faces.  Hopefully Bitcoin will live up to it's potential one day some of the goons will be kicking themselves over not doing a little bit of independent thought and and missing the boat.

As far as they being whacked out homicidal freaks, I really did not get that impression.  Similar to this board, a percentage of them seemed pretty sharp and/or decent, and the remainder seemed to be your run-of-the-mill floatsam and jetsam of humanity without much to say.
