  "We" in Multiscape was my uncle Ari (PayPal) and me, while I used usernames Niconi, Jami and Joni (who wasn't even my friend anymore, when I worked with Multiscape). Rune-Server shows domain name that a webclient-related YouTube video shows. The post is edited, but not recently.

  @Oneirio I've been doing commissions on VGen and then having the money from there go to my business PayPal with no issues at all. I don't think VGen requires a code anymore either?

  @AskPayPal I also tried using the messaging/support options, but the automated responses were not helpful, as there is no option related to a permanently limited account. Could you advise me on the appropriate channel or procedure to resolve this issue? I would appreciate your guidance.

  I will give literally every dime of the 3594$ in my bank account right now to anyone who can find a professional economist that supports trickle down economics. This is not a joke. I am dead serious. If you find one I'll dm you my paypal.

  Pay for a server the way the internet pays: Bitcoin, Ethereum, USDT and 300+ coins, alongside cards and PayPal. No international card or banking corridor required. Deploy from Lisbon or Johannesburg in about two minutes. Which would you reach for?

  Crypto adoption is bottlenecked by terrible UX. PayPal figured this out over 20 years ago. Nobody wants to copy-paste 42-character strings and hope their money doesn't disappear into the void. It needs to be as simple as typing a name. @Americanfort_io

  This story took place a couple of years ago at university, a campus filled with privilege—mostly children of doctors, engineers, and wealthy business owners. That didn't make up the entire student body, but it was a significant portion. I didn't come from that background, but I chose this school because it was the farthest from my parents. The reason this matters is that I took my education very seriously. Don't mess with me or my grades, and I won't mess with you. I paid for this with a 40-hour work week while taking 16 credit hours a semester. I'd already gotten two teachers' contracts reconsidered and not renewed at the end of different years. I give everyone respect, but I won't let anyone screw me over. I explained my situation to my professors at the start of every semester, noting that I might miss some classes and why, but I'd still put in 100% effort on the material and assignments. Most were understanding. The professor in this story was too, especially since I'd show up to his afternoon office hours after sleeping through the morning, asking smart questions instead of something like, "Hey, what did we cover while I was out?" The spring class was Implementing Business Computer Systems. For the major project, we worked with a real client through a school program that provided pro bono services to small local businesses. As seniors, we were trusted with client work under the professor's supervision. This felt like a big step, and I was excited. I'd been working as a bartender/server at a fine-dining restaurant while keeping my head in books learning to code, with barely any free time. This was a chance to get a real taste of the professional world we were entering.The project started smoothly. We all drove thirty minutes to meet the client—a wonderful woman in her sixties who owned a small floral shop. She was paying 1-800-Flowers a huge fee to sell her products, which included their own website. She wasn't very comfortable with computers, which became important later. We learned she wanted a new website since her contract ended that summer. No pressure—we could finish it by the end of the semester, maybe earlier, and have time to teach her how to maintain and run it herself. We divided tasks. Since I had the strongest background in coding and computers, I volunteered to build the website as long as Damien, Jeff, and Kirk handled the user guide and technical documentation. Those needed to be thorough so she could easily add products later.Over the next week, we developed proposals and scheduled a meeting with the client for the following Tuesday—when everyone was most available. Sunday, Jeff said he couldn't make it. Kirk quickly chimed in that he couldn't either. I said it was fine—Damien and I would go. Monday, Damien suggested rescheduling since he couldn't make it now. I said no, I'd go alone. We shouldn't cancel on the client. No big deal—things come up. As the semester continued, I was crushing the website. I had a working e-commerce store integrated with her PayPal, a shop tab, and a featured page for seasonal flowers. When I asked about the documentation and manual, all three said they were working on it and would share a rough draft soon for me to review. Cool, no problem. Time to show the client our progress to see if she wanted changes. We set another meeting for a Tuesday a week or two later, and everyone agreed it worked.Same pattern again. Sunday, Jeff backed out, and Kirk quickly followed. I said it was okay—Damien and I could handle it. Monday, Damien said we should reschedule because he couldn't go. "I said no way—this is a client. You don't do that to clients." So I drove the 30 minutes alone. I showed her the website, and she was thrilled, asking us to keep going. She was excited for the final version.Our weeks ran Wednesday to Tuesday, so the last day of classes was Tuesday. The school gave a free "study day" that Wednesday, followed by exams.

  The night before SpaceX's fourth rocket launch, Elon Musk sat alone in the control room and everyone who saw him said the same thing. He looked like a man preparing to lose everything. Three rockets had already exploded. Each failure cost millions. Each failure was broadcast to a world that was increasingly certain this whole private space thing was a joke. The media was writing obituaries for SpaceX before the fourth rocket even reached the launchpad. If this one failed, there was no fifth attempt. The money was gone. SpaceX would shut down. Tesla, which Elon was also funding personally, would likely follow. Everything he had built since PayPal would be gone. An engineer who was there that night said Elon wasn't pacing. Wasn't talking. He was just sitting there staring at the screen. Completely still. Like a man who had already accepted both possible outcomes and was just waiting to see which one the universe chose. September 28, 2008. Falcon 1 reached orbit. The first privately developed liquid fuel rocket to ever do it. The room erupted. Elon broke down. Everything that SpaceX has achieved since, every NASA contract, every Starlink satellite, every Starship prototype, started in that one moment. One launch away from losing everything.

  (i will be deleting this soon) a few of you have approached me asking for my paypal to help with my funding for private healthcare tests after being in hospital last week and i was reluctant to accept help, however after paying the majority and having a small hurdle left to go i thought id lay down and finally accept it. i dont want to post my details in public so if anyone has anything to spare, please dm me and i’ll tell you what you need to know 🤍 i appreciate every single one of you - every dm, reply, and any piece of support that you have already given me 🤍

  Potshopscape website shows PayPal link of my uncle Ari. That's the original Multiscape website. Onebip was mine. Fortumo was used in Counter-Strike 1.6. Goldfarming with my uncle Ari involved a home server in Ari's cabinet and VPS.

  @poems_past Both @kick and @YouTube need to drop DSPGaming. He is a net negative for both platforms while he also encourages tipping via Paypal to avoid giving each website their deserved cut, because he's certainly not bringing in ad revenue. Man's got less than 25 actual viewers, the rest are sock accounts to fake donations. Let's flush that **** down the toilet already.

  @MAGAVoice Zohaan is working towards people improvement. Elon is working towards self-enrichment, that the system has been built for. he has the money, the larger zionist ecosystem , the Paypal gang. Zohran has nothing, and the entire media tried taking him down for doing right by people

  @NeithV3 Well there is venmo, but that isn't that different. A lot of folks also use Kofi, buuut that has a lot of the same problems as PayPal, in they hate NSFW. Some artists I have gotten stuff from have done stuff through subscribestar as well.

  I was someone who wasn't able to buy a stream ticket and watch Dokibird's Birthday concert. I just wanted to send this to apologize if I bothered Dokibird or anyone else with all the replies and maybe some of my posts I made explaining that. Let me just say I'm really sorry if I did. And I never meant to bother Doki or anyone else. I was just really eager to see this one thing of my Oshi AmaLee/@LeeandLie going 3D and was really frustrated seeing how my U.S. debit card, the PayPal, and everything else I tried on the site SPWN didn't work. And after it didn't work, I ended up getting in trouble for it because I still got the charge from my bank which my parents showed me which put me in a slightly worse situation. Also, there was this watch-along thing this guy made of the Doki concert but sadly, it was nothing a dupe which also really sucked. When I made all those comments and replies talking about it, it was all I was able to do here on Twitter/X just like some others would usually do. I really hope I see somethings from AmaLee's 3D debut and if I don't or it doesn't show up until Christmas or the New Year, I'll do my best just to live with that and move on. But again, I am really Sorry to Doki and everyone else if I bothered them with all I posted and commented in regard to not being able to watch the concert. I don't expect to be forgiven but, I just want everyone to know that I have this sincere apology for whatever it is I did wrong with all of again, the replies and posts. 😔🙏 #DokiRewindTime #Dokibird #DokiBirthday2026
