It could actually pay a lot of people, also a few hundred k here, a few hundred k there, and all of a sudden you're talking about real money.

There's a breakeven point somewhere, and it's not just one loan. Obviously people are being vocal about BG because he's posting (and presumably reading the responses) but I assume most people hate the other people even more if they're holding the deal up and not saying anything.

Sure, they SHOULD pay back the debts, but if FTP goes under, they are off the hook for what was loaned to them. These guys clearly don't care what happens to the rest of the players and are just looking at the best line for THEMSELVES. I'd say about 98% of us would do the same thing...and anyone who says otherwise, is just saying that because you want your FTP money back.
No. If I were in that situation of course I'd take the money, but when I borrow money, then the person wants their money back, assuming there wasn't already a deal where I get it for longer and I had enough to pay it back, I'd pay it back.
Also if FTP goes under they are most definitely not off any hook. FTP would go into bankruptcy and the assets, which include unpaid debts, would presumably be collected on by whoever arbitrated the bankruptcy (government in w/e country it's incorporated in?) and used to pay out stockholders/players/other owed parties. So even if FTP goes under these debts do not go away.
