This is seriously the most hilarious thing I have read in a long time. Here we have a group of objectivist libertarians who believe that there should be effectively no laws other than the law of economics and self-interest who run an illegal website devoted to the pure greed of cashing in on contraband, and this is what they write:

"I’ve included transaction logs at the bottom of this message. Review the vendor’s dishonest actions and use whatever means you deem necessary to bring this person to justice." We need the government! Please, come find the guy who took all of our illegal drug money and give it back to us so we can continue to say you aren't necessary.

"Given the right flavor of influence from our community, we can only hope that he will decide to return the coins with integrity as opposed to hiding like a coward." Yes, you bad guy, you should do the right thing and think of the community not your self-interests by giving back your illegal gains back to the guy named Dead Pirate Roberts (that's totally his real name).

"Whoever you are, you still have a chance to act in the interest of helping this community." In the interest of the community?! Bwahahahaa!

"I will fight here by your side, even the greedy bastards amongst us." Like everyone on the site?!

"The only way to reverse a community’s greed is through generosity." Just like Ayn Rand said my brothers!

Then I come here and not a single person on here even notices the massive hypocrisy and lack of self-awareness. Amazing.
