I have to agree that the 5 posts isn't an issue.  Hell this counts as one of mine.  The bigger issue (and one that I don't have a problem with) is the four hours.

I guess it makes sure you've at least done a bit of reading and so you should know what the general attitude/mood is like on the forums.

Either that or you just rigged your browser to refresh every once in a while and went to bed Tongue

Both are barriers to entry though, which I guess is the point.

Added an Electricity / BTC Price break even calculation to the calculator.

I figured this would be helpful to somebody with all the talk of quitting due to low BTC prices.

Oh wow that's excellent, thanks a lot!

Hello everyone Smiley I've been bitcoining for a while now. I'm currently running experiments using evolutionary neural networks to attempt to examine or predict as to how the price of bitcoins might change over time - this is a pretty common technique used by big investment firms as a source of stock market information, but bitcoin is a more attractive domain since there are fewer sources of uncertainty than in the "big boy" stock market, making tweaking and fine-tuning faster. Hoping to share my results+discussion here some time soon!

Paypal is a pain in the ass anyway. If you create a completely new account on ebay and try to sell something, you are nowadays FORCED to create a Paypal account, too!
Isn't that terrible? I will surely boycott Paypal for the rest of my life...and you should do that too, at least for buying bitcoins...

Yeah, it's been that way for a while now. It's why I stopped using eBay altogether.

Can't imagine the amount of money they must make off that little setup
