I don't get excited sexually, about the crocodile, so I would guess it's male crocodile

When I think of HC's hard luck stories I don't think of "croc" - I think of "crock" :-)

Don't press F5 people...it extracts folding money from your wallet while you wait for it to refresh...ingenious really, but DON'T PUSH IT....

[RamesesII]

Oh man, that is scary. I thought I'd read at torrentfreak that the demonoid.me addy had been bought up by someone, plus that "demon" looks a little different than the one they used to have, though that may be my hemp addled memory. This may be a serious scam.

Also, the HC "new" is the same as the last last chance message reported, but with today's date.

From following the "how to get bitcoins" link from the demonoid link above:
"Bitcoin services are not highly regulated so a service can continue operating even when it is widely believed that it is insecure or dishonest."

This sounds like it might be a good candidate for the next HC money grab. I wonder what the exchange rate is, i.e. how many karma points per bitcoin.

I've already exchanged my karma points for upload credits, ended up wth a ratio of about 2. If HC ever rises again, I'll be looking to exchange that "2" ratio for a ratio of "1", fair warning.

Sorry, my DEA license doesn't cover prescribing narcotics in Switzerland.

I was referring to this meaning of the word crock (sense 2):

http://www.thefreedictionary.com/crock

crock 1 (krk)
n.
1.
a. An earthenware vessel.
b. A broken piece of earthenware.
2. Slang Foolish talk; nonsense: That story is just a crock.
[Middle English crokke, from Old English crocc. Sense 2, short for crock of shit.]

The new "new" same as the old "new", except for today's date being inserted.

As far as the drug, krokodil: "The drug was reported to have "flesh-eating" properties, causing open wounds around the injection site." If it had "cash-eating" properties, I could see where it would appeal to ShaReef, however I think he would be more likely to be a bath salt "plugger".

[RamesesII]

New what? Nothing but the same old tired excuses as far as I can see .........

The latest "new".

Just my opinion of course, but it sounds like a little purging is underway in the forum, I believe that is SOP after a coup or coup attempt, controlling the media, rewriting the history.

Cant wait for the weekend!!!

It will be nice if they really get back up again. I enjoy the material that HC offers, especially the BBC videos and such.
