This topic isn't dead. It's only suffered from a bad case of diversionary tactics, which Liberals are naturally quite good at...speaking of; It's interesting how you lump the conservatives together as "offering nothing new" and being bad debaters, LOL! ;)
I'm willing to bet this is hands down the most embarassing moment in Liberal's History on PDD...........I think only rabbits may run faster than you guys did from this simple and PROFITABLE challenge. :D |
You're ing thick. Since Tito (and I) opened up for the possibility for calling from abroad tiesto14 has left the thread. He's the one that has chickened out.

Hm, and how exactly does that work? I've never used pay pal before.

Allow me to clarify on Paypal and the "Buyer Protection" program: Don't listen to brasco - he's mixing things up.
I've had to use both Paypal and (sadly) the protection program and basically here's what you want to know:
Paypal:
- You get a paypal.co.uk account by giving them your email address and your credit card details.
- They charge you $1.95 and along with the charge (on your next account statement) there is an "activation" code, that you use to verify your account. You might have to call or email your bank to get the code, though, and depending on how common eBay trading is in Croatia, this might involve talking to bank clerks who haven't got a clue as to what you're talking about.
- If you don't get the code, then there is a maximum amount that you can send to others (and maybe also one for recieving - can't remember). This limit is about $1000, I think, so if this is a one shot deal then it shouldn't be a problem.
- Now, if somebody send money to your Paypal account, you can have them deposited on your bank account, which will probably mean that you have to pay some sort of tax/customs fee. Alternatively, you can keep the money in your Paypal account and use them to buy stuff online.
- If you pay for something through Paypal (e.g. an eBay auction), then Paypal grabs 4% of the total amount in fees from the seller.
Buyer Protection program:
- This is something offered by eBay (who owns paypal) - not Paypal. When you win an auction at eBay, which is covered by the program, then you as the buyer are guaranteed to get your money back from eBay if the seller doesn't send you the merchandise. However, for the guarantee to be activated, you need to pay the auction through Paypal.
- If the stuff you bought doesn't show up, you send printouts of the auction, Paypal reciept, emails and the like to eBay HQ, and (if they side with you) they will transfer the amount minus $70 to your Paypal account.
So, if you and tiesto14 want to do this using the program, you would have to set up an eBay auction (say: "I'll call any show you want"), with a start price of $100+phone bill, and tiesto14, would buy that from you - and then he is insured by eBay. However, to set up an auction you need a credit card, and eBay will charge you some percentage of the sell price as well as a couple of cents as listing fee.
If tiesto14 feels that you have not lived up to your promise, then he will send emails and an mp3 of the show to eBay, and they will contact you looking for proof that you called Rush. If you can give this proof then tiesto14's case will fall. If not, then eBay will pay him about $30 (100-70), ban you as a seller, and maybe try to get the police on your ass (I guess not, considering the small amount).
Hope that all made some sense.
If you really want to do this, I would say that the easiest method would be for tiesto14 to Paypal-send the money to someone you both trust (like me :)), and then that person would Paypal-send the money to you or him depending on whether you call Rush or not. |

Donny, you really are a dumbass. Not only did you totally miss my entire point, you acted like you got it and some how proved all of it wrong while absolutely making no sense at all. Just admit you have no idea how the legal system works already and be done with it. You're not fooling anyone.
Don't use any faulty logic either, like assuming that since I think Rush is a hypocrite that I'm a liberal. I can assure you I'm not. However, in your failed reasoning anyone that doesn't instantly agree with you is against you or a liberal trying to carry out their agenda. You're starting to sound like solgrabber or whatever his name is that started the 9/11 thread. |

Precisely.
Remember in primary school. When you would get split into teams to play a game at recess?
It's like getting split into teams, and your side just HAPPENS to get the autistic kid.
I feel bad for ANY side (conservative or liberal) who gets Donny and Tiesto. It’s embarrassing.

LOL! You guys are all pretty funny. I appreciate your passion though, mis-guided as it is.
I already explained my beliefs about Rush and the law and what could be going on there to my satisfaction, so I'm kinda done with that. Make of it whatever you want.
Getting back to the real topic at hand here;
As for Tiesto having left this thread, I see no evidence of that. All I see is a bunch of excuses here from the people who say that they can't or won't take the challenge for one reason or another. What's Tiesto supposed to do if no one is serious about taking the challenge? Sit here and post in this thread every hour on the hour until someone does?
I'd like to also suggest that Tiesto's credibility is on the line. I can't see him NOT paying the caller. Perhaps a little trust might go a long way here? Besides, if you're all as confident as you are in your abilities and convictions, it should be a pleasure for you to take Rush to task, right?
And if Tiesto didn't pay, I'm sure he'd be shamed in to never posting here again. Seems like quite a risk worth taking for the vast majority of Liberals on this board, no? A possible chance to put Rush in his place and have Teisto never post here again if he doesn't pay? A real win-win for you guys. :stongue: |

Speaking of that thread, WTF? Why did I get singled out for "Spamming"?
Like I was the only one. :eyespop: |

he hasnt posted here in the past 22 hours and his last post here was anything but encouraging drug tito, who might be up to the challenge and i quote: "nah, he wont do it.:haha: ". |

Well, the way I read that post by Tiesto is DT needs to get himself a Pay Pal account happening before any further action can take place.
The ball is in his court now, no? |

i believe drug tito will need more assurance in order to create a paypal account, considering it will cost him both time & money (even if only $2 or so)to do so. |

Well, my response to that would be; "Nothing in life is free"...it's all part of earning the $100.
Unless of course, like I said, DT is willing to take Tiesto's word that he is good for the money and just make the call without jumping through so many hoops to get a Pay Pal account. |

Look..t14 has already been banned a couple of times and has so often been switching sides and making contradictory points that I really don't think he cares much about his credibility. Anyway, I'm in the US atm, so I suppose most people here know about paypal and ebay. Now, really..if I were to give 2$ every time someone made me an offer to get a lot of money, I'd really be a couple of million in debt. But here's my offer. I'll give you, tiesto, my address and you send me 2$ in a letter through mail. Then I can either set up an account, or if I don't you can brag about how I cheated you and evaded calling Rush all you want. Please ask for the post office to give you a confirmation of when the letter arrives, so that if it arrives and I don't ackgnowledge it, you can scan it and post it up here. Then you and I can set up both paypal and ebay accounts and I'll gladly make a call. Unfortunately, if I don't get on the air, you'll loose 70 bucks. But hey, what's that compared to ruining my and confirming your credibility? Say, you for it? C'mon! |
