Title: PSA: Use archive.is instead of, or combined with screencaps for evidence Post by: kopipe on May 08, 2015, 10:42:59 AM Lots of threads here quote posts that no longer exist or refer to rapidly changing areas like the trust area.
One of the worst threads for this is the Stakeminers thread. It's trivial to doctor screencaps and even easier to write fake quotes. Pic related, apparently Vod has been doing a lot of scamming lately :D http://a.pomf.se/fljzbl.png Quote from: Vod Ah fuck off, scamming is fun, sheesh. (Apologies to Vod for being used as an example ;) ) archive.is is a third party site that adds another layer of verifiability to your claims. Use it or a similar service!

How can that be possible or is there something that i dont understand because you never explained what it is really

How can that be possible or is there something that i dont understand because you never explained what it is really Basically : yes, that site keeps (store a page requestedby you) a sort of screenshot of the page (an image version and a web page version). It is more easy to use an archive.is aka archive.today page for reference here in the forum.

It is more easy to use an archive.is aka archive.today page for reference here in the forum. But as far i can tell it only stores something if you request it and everything that happened already here or anywhere else is not stored unless someone has it stored right?

Yes, but it is more secure to have another 'backup' outside this forum (for a question of neutrality and partiality). |
