Bitcoin Forum

I have been lurking this site for a while. I just finally got the courage to sign up. It has come to my attention that it is covered in so many scam accusations. Too many newcomers are either scamming people, or being scammed. I have decided that this online transaction forum would do better if newcomers came with at least negative 20 in order to have motivation to be stable, and not scam anyone.


I am not a scammer, but I'd like to prove that by rising above my upcoming negative rating. I am a coder for a computer business, and two other websites dedicated to Bitcoin. From there, I will prove it by just rising above  the negative votes. When downvoting me, just say "because faggot" or whatever, or just don't say anything at all. Who thinks this could be a good idea to stop scammers?

When I've gotten my negative rating, I'll delete this entire thread, including posts and lock it since it won't serve purpose. I thought this was a good proposal.

Not really.

It'll become the norm to have negative feedbacks then, and it'll sort of nullify the effect of it.

If you're honest, then just go on ahead and do your business honestly and there shouldn't be a problem.

That proposal doesn't make sense to me. Nowadays, you should be guilty until proven innocent.

If you're an innocent person, than prove it. I am willing to prove, so I have no reason to be upset about a negative 20 rating, so please give me a downvote. I am ready to prove that I'm a good person.

Prove it by going around, doing your business. If people don't trust you to do an exchange with you, then use an escrow. (Unless you're doing some reversible payment exchange for bitcoins.) If anything, you should just completely disregard the little numbers under your username.

Athertle said it good. Why don`t u be normal guy, and follow some simple rules and soon u will have bigger rank and maybe even some friends. We are starting from 0 here, all of us, and its not positive or negative. How time pass u will gain some trust for sure. Your propsal says clearly that we are all bad nad negative persons when we come here and we need to prove ourselfs. I dont like it, this system is good for now.

Then why do we even have trust?

It is understandable that newcomers can't be trusted. You have all been worried, so why can't my proposal be taken into immediate consideration? I'm just trying to do what I believe in.

Done OP, when you want it removed just pm me so i can review your posts and remove it if you arent doing anything bad

I don't see the trust there at all though.

I don't think it went through.

it went through, click untrusted feedback, i am not in default trust yet

Oh, OK. Do you have friends that have high default ranks?

Because it does its job well of determining how the community thinks a user is trusted.

Let me put it this way: +0 is a NEUTRAL trust rating. It's like starting to count up/down from zero; you don't start counting from -20 and you don't start counting at +20. Zero is neutral, and so is +0.

Okay well let me put it this way:

In the Holy Christian Bible, God the Father of the holy spirit sent Jesus to have the bad turn to good

Another example in this holy Bible is that when judgment day comes, you must prove yourself to be good to be accepted away from damnation. We all deserve to die. Only Jesus Christ our Savior is better than we humans. We are all born with a negative image for we are not Jesus, and must prove we are good.

I don't think that kind of system works. I mean, it only takes 10 seconds to create a newbie account. And based on what I have seen on the majority of numbers of all newbies here, if their accounts get negged, they will create a new clean one. That's just how thses people view it. It'll be harder to give up an account if it could reach a certain rank as full member then maybe in there people with negative trust will do something to clear their reputation here and remove the red tags.

They can hide behind a computer, but they cannot hide from God.

that is like saying give me aids so i can work on finding a cure..

of course you'd say this, just because you are abusing the trust as a more trusted user said via negative feedback on your page.

No one will want to give you a negative rep, it's just immoral. If you want to prove your trustablity, be active in the forum and help out. You don't need any negative trust, nor positive trust to be trusted. If you are well known and make alot of trades, people will naturally hear your name and trust you, positive trust or not.

i have left you a neutral.

i see one problem with your idea (thats also why i think what you are doing is trust abusing): if many people do this its impossible to detect people who have already scammed someone because anybody starts in the red.

i'd like to see proven scammers in red - new people may not be trustworthy but someone who scammed is more bad and the rating should reflect that

My bad, my bad.  I did not realize you were a troll. 

I must say, you do it very well. 

The guy is a liar.

He randomly out of the blue sent me a PM about he thinks i am BiPolar then a PM with death / extortion threats.
I had never had any contact with the guy before he PM'd me.
I had never talked to or about him anywhere ever.
After i left him feedback for death threats etc..
he THEN left that feedback on me as retaliation.

..don't believe everything you read.

uhh it reminds me of the guy who was buying negative trust for btc, but he never payed and scammed everyone and hence received more negative trust. it was pretty ironic.

Don't believe everything I read?


You should do the same then, I guess.


But please prove the death threats so we can have him banned.

Banning the idiots has no effect. Any tech mind with internet access knows how to proxy hop.

I have left you your negative feedback as per your request. January 1st I will look at your posts and see if the rating should be changed.
Good luck on your quest on the forums. It's a dangerous place.

By the time it's January 1st, this site will be shut down.

Wait what where are you getting this information from? I really don't think the site is going to shut down in like one month

Joking.

Or am I? Hm.

I know you want us to wait until Jan 1 to call you a fool, but I'm going to do it early.   ;)

Good joke. Much worse sites have been running for much longer, this one will be staying up until Bitcoin dies.

Heh. Got to say, I'm feeling a bit uneasy about OP.

So... let me get this straight. You believe in God. You believe that everyone should be guilty until proven innocent. Why are you here again?

I'll also let you in on a little tip. Scam accusations are serious.. The only thing that belongs in users feedback are personal experiences with that user... and I would even go as far to say trade deals ONLY. No one gives a fuck if you THINK someone is a scammer or is abusing trust. You are new user and I already don't trust you.

FEEDBACK is NOT a Ficco score. It doesn't go down just because someone else thinks it should. Unless you've traded with someone keep your brown nose out of it. This is where our moderators need a bit more system power. They should have the ability and actively review feedback. Vod are you paying attention? This applies greatly to your feedback. You're a great scam buster but like the police.. at times.. accuse perfectly innocent people. Or have insufficient proof of the claim. You don't care. Probably won't even ready this, but realize people do take note of it.


Back to Fwdxlsh.

Stahp. You're ideas are too extreme for reasonable people. This is the second thread i read with your crazy thoughts being spilled out to the public. Somehow you thought doxing was illegal without even really knowing what it was....

P.S.     This might change if you weren't such a dick.

What I did here was research. It didn't take long and it adds up quickly. If you want to help the community, do things like this. Back up claims. Report true scammers not just people you don't like. And the most important thing... Just go with the flow for a while before you start recommending all these changes or even worse claiming our beloved website wont exist come first of the year. Not even lizardSquad could pull that one off. Then again lizardSqd is very much here i'm sure. reading this post.  :'(

God is able. God is good.


We are all bad people because we are not Jesus Christ. But I might be wrong. I don't know.


It doesn't matter to me. I do research. You did research that wasn't genuine. Oh well. Here's some of my research here.

I'm not mean in the least. I apologize that you want to call people "dicks". That is rude. I have not done anything to you. I hope you find happiness.  :)


Also I was joking about that " single and lonely" comment. Doesn't mean in lonely when I'm alone. I'm sorry that you're angry. I hope you find happiness!

I will be blocking you now so we can go our separate ways.

Bringing this thread to a close now, since nobody wants to give me my rating...


I was wrong to talk about others here, and I'm sorry. This man is probably right.
