Yahoo Shuts Down Their PayPal Competitor

LostCluster writes "MSNBC and ZDnet are both reporting that Yahoo and HSBC have announced a shutdown plan for their PayDirect service which was their rival to PayPal. Since CitiBank abandoned their c2it service last year, PayPal now seems to be a monopoly by default." There are other players in this field, though, like bidpay and worldpay.

    GNAA announces victory over Matthew Tanner Bonig

    GNAA freedom fighters attack mbonig into submission

    Cakedrink KillsPics - Sinclair Broadcasting Correspondent

    In the GNAA.s continued effort to combat mindless idiocy, blogging, and bigoted oppression of gay nigger rights, GNAA member Penisbird has announced victory over mindless slashbot and blogger mbonig.

    In true Hitlerian fashion, mbonig wanted to deny freedom speech to gay black men under the guise of his own nazi-esque values of censorship. .Gasgaynigs., mbonig was quoted as saying to a swooning crowd of neo-nazis ready for a golden shower of his drivel.

    GNAA member Penisbird, who is considered of one of the most gifted and intelligent members, according to the GNAT or Gay Nigger Aptitude Test, excellently crafted his arguments against the nazi, as shown here, and was able to counter every point with concise and irrefutable facts. In the usual Slashdot hypocrisy, anyone who fights for the legitimate rights of the unpopular is considered a troll and this thread was no different.

    The tragic defeat on Slashdot forced mbonig to retreat to his blog and admit that the GNAA.s posts are free speech (unlike what he said earlier) while at the same time slandering Penisbird.s impeccable character. Penisbird does not tolerate such insolence and proceeded to attack his wretched blog.

    In the most skilled fashion, Penisbird proceeded to flood his blog as a form of legitimate protest. Like an relentless flood of nigger cocks, Mbonig (which is an intentional slur against niggers) tried to squelch the massive flood of protest posts by deleting hundreds of comments but could not keep up. His next step was to disable commenting for a couple of days. The very morning he restored comments and declared that by requiring logins, the attacks would cease. Wrong. Penisbird was on the attack and continued the assault.

    After the morning offensive, mbonig quickly and embarrassingly disabled comments, declaring that .script kiddies. (the scripts in question consist of Microsoft Internet Explorer and the refresh button) do not deserve the same free speech rights he enjoys. However, Penisbird was victorious in that he caused mbonig to permanently disable comments. Penisbird vows to keep up the assault on his Slashdot posts and anywhere else he tries to oppress free speech rights online.

    mbonig claims that he is not hiding who he is. Really? What is your last name? Where do you live? Oh, it seems that you are hiding who you are. Hypocrite.

    Could you be a bit more racist in your next post? Thanks.

      Rather than suggest the word should be removed, it simply seems better to moderate and ignore. Free speech still rules in importance, except when deemed a direct public menace - screaming "fire" in a movie theatre, etc.

    "...it is also reasonable to think that the origin of the "N-word" came from a bully's(cracker) pun on the phonetic and inferior similarities with "renege" and 'niggardly'." [Emphasis mine]

    This is ridiculous. You mean to tell me that while you're against the use of any word that even sounds like a black racial slur under the idiotic assumption that the words are tangentially related, you see nothing wrong with using an actual WHITE racial slur at the same time you express your righteous indignation?

    What ever happened to your hypersensitivity and supposed consideration for the psychology of the reader? Are only black people deserving of tolerance?

    Let's be honest, this really isn't about tolerance anyway, is it?

    No they ain't!. The former might result in a panic and thus people actually being hurt. Who you say fuck in front of is a manner of your personal fucking taste.

    I realize that Slashdot is not the place to peddle this idea, but what's wrong with a little civility? Of course you have a right to free speech, but why does free speech always have to be so coarse? Too much Sopranos?

    The zeal for "free speech" takes us in a race to the bottom, which is fine for you, but I would like for other people to show me a modicum of consideration in public speaking and writing. Using your favorite expletives is much more fun for you than it is for those around you.

    You may think it's cool to say such words around chilren, but let me remind you that chilren are not small adults, they are going through development phases and have way different sensitivities. In fact, they have sensitivities, a concept you might not be familiar with.

    So lighten up. Bringing a bit more civility into language does not mean being a prude, nor does it mean censorship. Your post was not insightful, it was merely a juvenile rant.
