Yes you can, as per sticky.

I am willing to give you any personal information and I give away free bitcoins here on the site and you suggest I fit a profile of a scammer?

Actually yes. Of course I dont know if you are a scammer, but the fact a new person here comes to ask to buy bitcoins though paypal and immediately starts a thread with a competition to give one bitcoin away, if anything raises more red flags with me. It does seem like a cheap attempt to gain trustworthiness, and the fact you bring that up just now, reinforces that feeling.

There are plenty of ways to buy bitcoins securely, if your aim is to obtain bitcoins, why arent you asking about those?

I don't do the contests to gain trustworthiness, that is something I aim to do regularly.

Everyone has to start somewhere and people are going to have a take a risk on me at first, that's the way it is with any site really. Personally, I can at least offer things like my eBay and identity to them for taking that risk. That is all I was doing.

Only time and successful transactions will guarantee trust anything else I do is to help paranoid people such as yourself, if it doesn't help so be it. If you know scammers willing to go to my lengths to establish trustworthiness than you know some really stupid/failure of scammers who can't possibly last very long, giving out their personal information. If they do, they are preying on the dumb.

You do not know I am a scammer yet you like to suggest I am. Very disrespectful in my opinion. I am not new to bitcoin just to the site and this is how I prefer to get them, I apologize you have a problem with that.

All I ask is you wait for validations of your 'suspicions' before you throw the accusations, because it's just as bad to ruin a legit members rep as it is to scam them. It's almost another sort of scamming.

As to referring to how long I have been here, I think it's silly you put more regard into this than anything I give you. It means absolutely nothing and as new as I am, that is something I can prove.
