UnFundedHype | 13 years ago | on: Most Black Media Don't Have Tech Sections
To answer your 1st question, I'm upset most black media don't talk tech or have tech sections.
I have 5 websites, you can't have 5 paypal accounts, So yes it goes to my main paypal account. I've made payments for plenty of items where the paypal account didn't match the site name.
At one point I had it as gamerholic/freetawn/citizen50/dreamybids but that was a bit much.
The bad spelling sure, That's one me.
Of course the example search is staged, that's why it's an EXAMPLE SEARCH.
The part to monitor homeless donations is on the WHATS NEXT tab. As in in the FUTURE.
Yes, off course, I made it so obvious, I paid to incorporate ehustla llc just so I can to hustle you out of $10. Then paid for ehustla.com and put a my picture and a video up so no one will ever know who ehustla is.
As far as the value of the sticker, I'm 100% positive any law enforcement officer who is race profiling will be deterred from profiling that specific driver since they know their count will be tallied.
Feedback is not just hate and random insecurities. There is value in the service. Just knowing there is a service available to track race profiling is enough to bring down the incidents of race profiling.

It's no different than a gaming tournament where you pay a $10 entry fee.
You'd keep yourself from popping a vein if you just asked how does yours prevent the headaches of quibids.
Everything I didn't like about quibids I removed from dreamybids.
1. There are plenty of ways to get free bids, you don't even have to buy 1 bid.
2. One of the auction formats, everyone in the auction gets x amount of free bids. Each bid the final price goes up x amount of cents. At the end of the auction the winner pays the final price, if you didn't win the auction it costs you nothing since you never bought bids. Like this free auction http://www.dreamybids.com/contest.php?id=332
3. You can host your own auctions. So even if you did lose $50 in bids, put up an item of your own and make your money back. If we collect 30% more than the retail price of the item, you'd get 50% of the overage, so you can make way more than you would from selling an item on ebay or craigslist.
4. There are some great gamification tools that allow you to freeze the bid of the next bidder, or buy the timer down, or block a power bidder from joining an auction. Also once the auction starts new participants can't jump in.
Asking questions keeps you from being theamazingidiot

My Dreamybids.com site for example, is an awesome service that uses the quibids model. It allows anyone to host their own auctions for products or services. Meaning a graphic designer could auction $200 of services. 10 people pay $20 to participate in the auction, one person wins and gets $200 of graphic design for $20.
Good luck getting traction with that if you aren't in the tech crunch, mashables, stanford, in club.

One gamer used a bank account to deposit funds into his account. 2-3 months later, he uses that same bank account, then files a chargeback for $680.
Even though he'd used that same bank account months earlier, on the same site without filing a chargeback somehow this time around he won the chargeback dispute.
I have no idea how that is common sense possible

UnFundedHype | 13 years ago | on: Find a cofounder or continue as a single founder...decisions decisions.
Most co-founders don't have or don't believe in the project enough to vest in with money and others just want to captain their own ship.
To solve the money problem I put up an auction on Dreamybids.com, the auction winner will get 5% for the $25 they used to join the auction. Still it seems self motivation is a quality only founders have.

There is also an innovative way to make poker fully legal for online play by just tweaking the rules a bit. I had a game developer excited to take that project on, but not for equity.
These projects were over years. Gaming can be seasonal as you scale, madden players play from September to april, nba 2k players from october to june etc.. COD players are worried about modded controllers and fighting game players about lag so I put up other projects to fill in the seasons.
Merchandising will be were we make the bulk of our money with gamerholic. Gamerholic is a persona, from shirts to gaming accessories. Many gamers have been asking for a real life version of our logo, which looks like a gaming controller filled with alcohol.
Dreamybids is just an example service of how much fun we can have gamifying things.
The other projects are a self funding option, just build and sell if the opportunity comes.
