Honestly, no. That whole Pattaya thing, combined with the punlman crap that was posted, genuinely creeps me out enough that I don't care what excuse it'll take to get this investigated. Let the courts can decide if that's good enough. And if he ever was a sex worker, it'll probably fall under the statute of limitations anyways at this point.

No it isn't. The FBI literally watches for this specifically. If you go to Thailand AT ALL, the FBI will watch you a little more closely to see if you're going for underage sex tourism, because the two countries you go to for that are Thailand and Cambodia. Only an idiot(I see your point) would go to Thailand for regular sex tourism because you could easily be thrown in jail.

I just saw the worst loving thing in my entire life in the Finnish television. It was a documentary on online dating, and as part of it they interviewed a guy who intends to found a "colony" in either Spain or Chile for Finnish single guys so that they can move there and marry beautiful, highly educated Hispanic women.

But that's not all. He actually compared his plan to that of the Bitcoin. The first time I hear of Bitcoin in Finnish media, and it is brought up by a guy who wants to live with Finnish goon-equivalents in a third world country. :downs:

What? Thailand is an incredibly popular destination for non-underage sex tourism, and why would you go to jail unless you have sex with minors/mess around with narcotics? Lots of people in this thread seem a bit to attached to the Pattaya=child sex always thing. There's prostitutes in Cleveland too, but nowhere is it as plentiful and cheap as Pattaya so yeah I could definitely see someone going there just to buy lots and lots of sex from adult males.

Bruce got banned from the uTorrent forum for having a "high and mighty attitude that crossed the line for the forum administration team."

He spammed the forum with really basic and retarded questions about the software for a week, then decided to write a tutorial on uTorrent and melted down when people reacted poorly:

quote:

I admit that I have posted questions, in haste, without COMPLETELY digesting every word and phrase of every guide and faq that exists on the internet.

But, in my defense, it is often much more efficient to do so... And besides, that IS the PURPOSE of a forum... Getting MULTIPLE PEOPLE'S OPINIONS and INSIGHTS... on a topic.... rather than just ONE -- the guy who happened to write the faq... (Not to mention, many faq answers are poorly written and easily misunderstood... especially by the novice, techno-illiterate new user...)

Actually, I think I did read all of those guides, linked from the main page, before I started. That's why I decided a new guide was definitely needed!

As of this moment, I have yet to see one that is SIMPLE, straightforward, and COMPLETE... as the one I've put together is.

I wrote it by simply taking good notes about what one REALLY needs to do... to get started... from all those guides and FAQs...

Of all people, I am one who NEVER wants to reinvent the wheel... Nor waste my time. My friends will tell you that I am extremely adamant about both of those things.

And, as I said, I have yet to see a good simple guide like the one I've put together.

If one exists, please, please... post the link here.

Those guides linked to on utorrent are all written by techno-guys who are not seeing things from the perspective of an ordinary non-technical person -- anyone's mother -- perspective.

They are too technical. What they discuss is largely irrelevant to techno-illiterate new users. And they completely FORGET to mention those few critical things that new users need to know how to do. Certainly, they just take for granted that the reader already KNOWS those things...

So, by the way, have you even READ my guide?

It has received 470 unique visitors so far today. And that number appears to be increasing by about 10% per day...

Apparently, some people like it.

The "mama boy" probably means the dude in charge, i.e. their pimp or... madam? Whatever. I don't know if child prostitution works the same way and I honestly don't care to, but in a place where sexually servicing tourists is basically the local equivalent to carrying out newspapers, there'll probably be some kind of equivalent.

Listen, no pedo-sexer is going to write "I REALLY LIKE THE 13 YEAR OLD BOYS IN THAILAND FOR SEX". We wouldn't NEED to report him, they'd already have him. This is the language they use, and while yes, the possibility is on the table that Bruce wasn't talking about that, there's a good chance he was. It's almost like we turned him in to an organization that will have to use due process for a conviction!

(also, did anyone else realize that Bruce is 49 or 50???? He goes to great pains to look much younger)

edit: In his post, he refers to picking up a virgin. Fun fact! Nobody thinks a sex worker over the age of 18 is a virgin!
It's one thing to submit a tip to an organization that is designed to investigate this, which is a pretty good plan given his ambiguity, but it's another to turn this thread into a witch-hunt, accusing someone before you actually hear anything from the FBI (through Bruce or other means).

Yeah, it is definitely possible he should be thrown in jail, but in lieu of actually having some evidence towards that, going ahead and convicting Bruce in the court of goon opinion is just going to turn this thread into a dumb rear end witch hunt "Take pictures of this rear end in a top hat's HOUSE" thread. And by the way, that's the FBI's job

Stop turning this thread into a terrible witch hunt thread where it's decided ahead of time that Bruce is DEFINITELY a pedo rapist furry rear end in a top hat. Pattaya = child sex tourism no doubt is patently ridiculous

It's this weird word play that he uses that makes it extra creepy for me. Yes, maybe they have their own terminology and its getting lost in translation, but he stood steadfastly by his choice of Pattaya even when told that it's a haven for child sex (which he denied, in the face of overwhelming evidence).

This just doesn't seem rational at all, even for a Bitcoin enthusiast.

Instead of having a real job. It’s not a coincidence. I like NPR, but I was so embarrassed for them when they interviewed him.
