what you really want is the americium tucked away inside.

.....stay tuned for part 2. for the moment i'm feeling a bit nauseous and my gums hurt. cya soon!

By positions I mean my bid-asks and such. If people knew for example (real data from an old spreadsheet circa i14):

That I put out 5x10 bids for Titanium Coating Res/End @100034-100038

5 x 10 on all the salvage used at 1038 for all

And listed at all times 5 @ at 3000001, 5 @ 3100001, 5 @ 3333331, 10 @ 3500001, 10 @ 4000001, 5 @ 4500001, 5 @ 5000001, 5 @ 5500001 and a high-ball stack of 10 listed on Justice for 10000001.

Also I kept 30 support bids out on these at 500038 to prevent a collapse below crafting costs.

If they knew all that, they'd be able to use that significantly to their advantage. Thats what I mean by positions. And no people don't know what my positions are...even if they do know the likely niches.

4 Guides to making inf, that read like guides to making atomic weapons that fail to mention what the fissile materials are, or the need to maintain critical mass

5. Guides to making inf, that read like guides to making atomic weapons based on waiting for proton decay.

6. Genuinely informative guides. << everything else

Edit: I forgot 7, the how dare you suggest changes to the system that might make it into something I am not good at posts.
Noooo we have a types of post post already.

Get real, my picture is hosted on Comcast and is not malware, so before you go accusing make sure you know what you're talking about.

The Market, and I don't think what's in my sig is braging either, but take it as you will.

Your pic isn't malware, but I picked malware up same day as and I didn't click on anything else new or unusual. Its not your fault if Comcast has malware on their system...not accusing you, just a word of warning since it was the most likely cause. You should consider checking your own system I suppose too....it never hurts.

Well you and your IT guy are wrong, this is my ftp server, and it doesn't contain malware, sorry. And my system is scanned on a daily basis, again sorry, not from me or my ftp server.

You may want to recheck the sites you normally go to, good possibility you got it from them

My IT guy didn't say it came from you. Though I guess I could ask him to see if he can tell. Its useful having someone much more knowledgable about this stuff than I am working for me sometimes. I'm not accusing you of anything Beefcake, I just posted a warning because I didn't want anyone else getting malware who doesn't have personal IT support. If its not because of your pic I appologize....I'm not intending to defame you in any way.

Nobody accused you of "injecting malware into people's computers". Why are you so defensive and flippant at the same time?

Well, read your first post regarding this isue, you did accuse me. I don't take that too lightly, specially when I own that ftp server through comcast, its my personal server and I know what's on it. It gets scanned and backed up daily.

There are literally thousands of ways to get malware on your PC and you come and blame me. Whatever....lol

Sounds like you need to quit downloading furry porn. We all know that is the leading cause of malware.

My language was imprecise. I didn't intend to accuse you. I also didn't know you owned the ftp server...most people posting here use 3rd party picture sites to post pics which are notorious for malware infections. I didn't intend to accuse you so I'm sorry if it came off that way. That said, you're flippantly arrogant which doesn't engender confidence in what you say. You come off like a teenager who is so unsure he's right that he blusters to cover his anxieties. And the whole thing got started as you said....because you were in a weird mood and decided to troll on the forums.

Much as I would like to avoid this thread entirely, I do feel compelled to chime in and say that I checked out the link, do not appear to have picked up any malware, confirmed by scans from two different packages. Just to allay fears from any others who might have clicked on it.

Good to know and I re-affirm my apology to Beefcake for using imprecise language and possibly implying he was responsible for malware.

What is furry porn....as a 39 year-old mother of 2 I'm not sure I actually know what that is. Which is sad I did teach a unit in an Economics class on the economics of sexuality and
porn in the late '90s.

Furry is a term that can cover several different interests. In the context it refers to people who like artwork (not automatically pornographic) depicting anthropomorphic animals. And I suggest we leave it there lest the thread get locked .

Same here, I've clicked on Beef's link several times over the last couple of days, and haven't had any issues whatsoever.

Fair enough. I think I have a pretty good idea what that would be then. Sounds like something virtuites in pocket D might enjoy.
