Wow. That is a 100 lb. sack of FAIL! More fodder for my PCI slides to show clients. Thanks Blippy, you've replaced CardSystems for me (their story was getting old).

I hope your PCI slides start by pointing to the biggest security problems in the CC industry: the banks themselves. They have no real interest in fixing the security problems.

You all are offended by calling out a fail? Touchy today, eh?

Let's see how far this can go.

I would not recommend that.

The first rule of being in a hole: Stop digging.

If I cared about 'Karma', I'd heed that post. But, I don't.

What's the point of participating in a community when you don't care what others think? Seems pretty pointless to me.

Community? I know nobody here. Everyone, like me, is hiding behind a screen name. People get to 'downvote' anonymously, which to me is absurd. Yesterday, I make a near meaningless remark about Apple fan-boys, and got 7 points. Today, I make a more meaningful remark about how this really is a noteworthy failure -- and I'm losing Karma right and left. To me, this is comical. Community? How do you define that word?

Only about 220 left to go. Let's see if we can reach zero by noon.

:) I'd call this a community. You can find my real name and the real names of others on our profile. I've also met many people from here and have had people reach out to me through this site. It's the most real online community I'm part of. It's this way because most of us act sensible most of the time.

Not everyone is hiding behind a screen name. In general the most active users also tend to be the ones who say in their profiles who they are.

There are a lot of reasons to participate in a community other than to seek consensus or approval. Has nothing to do with Blippy though.

Oh come on, now. Man-up and reply, if you have anything worth reading.

Shut up. You're making noise and you're talking like a kid. Just stop trying. You're not funny. It's not about being "touchy" is about being tired of EPIC FAIL MAGICAL REVOLUTION and how fucking tired we're from this language.

Also, I'm only responding to you because you have this account for one year and I thought you should know better. Eat your downvotes like a man and stop acting like a primadonna.
