Title: Re: Your IP HAS SOME EVIL POINTS? Post by: --Encrypted-- on August 15, 2015, 09:53:38 PM it means someone with that IP was banned before. it's very common if you use proxy or tor. might also happen if you have a shared IP.

Download tor,wait to configure and surf anonymous on the internet. Don't pay for shit services. Title: Re: Your IP HAS SOME EVIL POINTS?

Post by: steven.G999 on August 16, 2015, 04:28:02 AM If you want to use that account just pay the fee. It's not more than a dust for normal people (unless you are super poor).
Title: Re: Your IP HAS SOME EVIL POINTS? Post by: zeraTunerse on August 16, 2015, 04:33:15 AM IP Ban: Someone from that IP was Banned or you are using IP that is Blacklisted by Bitcointalk.org Server.
You Need to pay a dust of bitcoins to get enable to your account , i guess the fine is not more than few days faucet earning. If your account is at-least Jr.Member i consider , you should Pay the Fine , else just head away and change your IP and make a new Fresh account. Title: Re: Your IP HAS SOME EVIL POINTS?

It's impossible the new created account to be Jr. Member. This restriction message comes to you when you first sign-up with an IP that has evil points already. Title: Re: Your IP HAS SOME EVIL POINTS? Post by: The Last Choice on August 16, 2015, 06:13:52 AM just pay the bill and use another proxy to avoid it, when you start to make a new account again ;)

Post by: ingiltere on August 16, 2015, 07:05:13 AM just pay the bill and use another proxy to avoid it, when you start to make a new account again ;) If he uses another proxy then he will see different amount of evil points depending on previous users. You can't avoid evil points when you use any proxy service. Title: Re: Your IP HAS SOME EVIL POINTS? Post by: Aku on August 16, 2015, 07:16:57 AM well yeah of course i use tor/proxy whats the point if i am not being anonymous ???and plus as i already said i dont care to give away some coins but "you are charging someone who is innocent"
Title: Re: Your IP HAS SOME EVIL POINTS? Post by: british on August 16, 2015, 07:27:03 AM happened to me too ..i gave like 20k satoshies and was told that i have 4.7 evil points....Lmao

Evil Units are nothing more than 'price list' you need to pay forum in case your IP is banned. It is not usually big money but couple of satoshis. Title: Re: Your IP HAS SOME EVIL POINTS?

Evil Units are nothing more than 'price list' you need to pay forum in case your IP is banned. It is not usually big money but couple of satoshis. It is really not a bad thing to have either. It prevents someone from using one IP and spamming over and over. They have to at least switch IP's. No system is perfect. If you live in shared residence or sharing a proxy it could cause it. But overall its a good thing. Title: Re: Your IP HAS SOME EVIL POINTS? Post by: Aku on August 17, 2015, 09:39:28 AM well it is a good thing if it is a couple of satohi ,but it is not .
just imagine a completely new user found about BTCtalk.org and wanted to enroll after signing up he is told that he is having 30 evil points and pay 0.003 btc ????..r u kidding . Title: Re: Your IP HAS SOME EVIL POINTS? Post by: british on August 19, 2015, 09:27:30 AM It happened to me ,i was told that my IP has 115 evil points and to pay 0.0049 i just left that account .

Most forums would ban it outright, here you have an option at least. Title: Re: Your IP HAS SOME EVIL POINTS? Post by: futurebit640 on August 19, 2015, 05:03:47 PM When you register, the IP that you used when you submitted the registration form is used to calculate your evilness. The more frequently this IP or its neighbors were banned, the more evil is associated with your account. The amount of evil associated with an IP decays slowly over time, but the amount of evil associated with an account does not. You must pay or be manually whitelisted to enable posting on one of these "banned" accounts. Here are some stats:
Currently each unit of evil requires a payment of 4023 satoshi. You only need to pay something if you have 1 or more, though. Title: Re: Your IP HAS SOME EVIL POINTS? Post by: peligro on August 20, 2015, 12:14:25 PM Smells like you are being scammed or whatever. Don't pay shit to anyone if asked. No, that is no scam. That is when you register a new account on bitcointalk and you use an ip that was previously banned. That only should ensure that a scammer or spammer isn't simply creating the next account and starts over. With the fee it costs a bit and might make it not worth anymore to scam or spam.

If my understanding is correct, the fee is in place to prevent spammers and trolls to come back to the forum and continue breaking rules. To do so, they'd have to send a little bitcoin to the website, and that wouldn't be worth the time of some who've been banned. Like BadBear said though, it's better than a full IP ban, especially if you decide to use the website over Tor or a public VPN. Title: Re: Your IP HAS SOME EVIL POINTS?

But the bad karma is all about IP's that was used by banned or even nuked users. The ip's they used will get bad karma and everyone trying to register with such an ip will have to pay for using it. That way it will get expensive to scam or spam. And yes, there are accounts nuked not seldom. Which means the account including all posts will be killed. Title: Re: Your IP HAS SOME EVIL POINTS?

Post by: SaltySpitoon on September 13, 2015, 07:41:39 PM Yep, as some people have said before, Evil Points are accumulated when your IP (Usually through a proxy or tor) has been banned before. The idea behind it, is that individuals that want to remain anonymous are barely penalized. Its designed to be an amount that someone could obtain from faucets in a short amount of time. For that reason, its barely noticeable for individuals who want to have 1 or 2 accounts. It does however discourage people from making thousands of accounts. In short, it blocks spammers and is barely noticeable for individuals.
