Title: Wake up > Realize you're DPR > What do you do?

Could you deal with that level of awesomeness? Or are you already a global treasure?

1. I'd apologize to the community that I've left stagnant and unloved for far too long, and make sure that everyone knows I care about their well being and their satisfaction with the service provided here; and thank them for sticking with me.

2. I'd stop using the fucking live site to test shit.

3. I'd calculate exactly how much profit I consider the minimum necessary for my lifestyle, and set aside the rest of SR's income per month to go toward staff.

4. I'd ask SS for the most trust worthy people possible and hire two for customer support and one for development, because I'm sure he already knows who would be good at the jobs and who I could trust not to fuck people over (or me).

5. Mark every Sunday afternoon on my calendar for the foreseeable future with an appointment, which would read "update blog."  During this time I'd post a short paragraph detailing some of my thoughts that week, run the text through an
online generic-texterizer-thingie, and post it to make sure I don't ever appear to be aloof and indifferent again.

6. Sit down and start working on the request list.


... hey, you're the one who asked :P

Lawl they've been on your mind a while havnt they ;D Though i do agree with pretty much all of them i cant knock DPR for not being able to fulfill them all. Would be nice if he did but he takes a massive risk for us all. We still have a pretty top notch service here, even with all of the above problems :)

I would sit in silent wonder that I single handily created something, that for a while at least, was changing the world.

Not many people get to do that.

10 years from now, I'm sure there will be better, smarter, cheaper ways to circumvent the government prohibition against drugs, but I don't think any will be able to take the pride I would feel for having created this one.

I just hope long before everything goes to shit and SR turns into a mess that DPR shuts things down and buys himself a little island somewhere and gets to enjoy the fruits of his labor.

He's shown the world that while the government might try to control our freedom there are still people out there willing to risk theirs in order to protect ours (and make a little money in the process)

Honestly, the Dread Pirate Roberts is the only pirate I trust.

+1 :)

Too right, would be a shame if all his work was in vain because he's caught before he goes into retirement. I'd like to think SR is ready to be passed on to a trusted acquaintance, most likely inigo. Seeing as they're a few steps ahead of the law, no doubt they're thinking ahead and have things planned we couldnt imagine.

Long live the road

Stare non-stop at the bitcoin value with an occasional chuckle thinking the $20,000,000 or so profit made all last year just became worth more than $100,000,000
