Well, you can try Google searches with site:bitcointalk.org added to the search query.
Doh! I should have thought of that.
I find this gives better results anyway vs SMF's search

Users have universally rejected pre-mining, regardless of the proportion. The goal is to eliminate the need for a centralized component such as XRP, not change its payout structure.
A lot of people are paying big bucks for ripples, they don't seem to care about it... (I don't understand why)

are the previous cataylsts better then the current one?
It seems like you could just take Ripples strengths and perhaps make it so it isn't pre-mined and it would ultimately be superior to bitcoin. Actually there are probably some other alt coins that are superior to bitcoin but it has first mover advantage and most all of the attention.
I think there is value to having programmers working on Ripple, but once it's done it's mostly done. That's not worth 20% of the entire economy (what they keep ). They should have done a combo of mining + non mining - 50% is mined , 40% given away 10% kept
Now what? Is there a way that I can add money directly without having to add some money to a website that adds money to another website etc.. and a long chain of fees? (okpay -> btc-e, etc..).
I just want like paypal, pay x EUR and get my money. Is there any way? I'm planning to buy just a few.
https://btc-e.com/ allows paypal/Visa purchases i believe so you may want to check them out.
I've heard to opposite, that they are impossible to get money into
