Title: [POLL] Is BTC-e on the borderline of being a scammy site to you? Post by: smoothie on February 14, 2013, 09:27:16 PM Please vote. I tend to think with all that has been going on even today's censorship of me talking about the facts surrounding NVC on the chat on BTC-e that BTC-e is headed in the wrong direction of the community.
Quote efx: support, what's going on with the censorship? Sitokagi: ok i pulled everything out of here till things calm down Sitokagi: too jumpy for my taste at the moment efx: You're scaring people away Sitokagi: efx indeed efx: Sitokagi, heh not you, lol dev: trolling not allowed here Title: Re: [POLL] Is BTC-e on the borderline of being a scammy site to you?

Starting to look worse and worse...Title: Re: [POLL] Is BTC-e on the borderline of being a scammy site to you? Post by: foggyb on February 14, 2013, 09:36:58 PM Maybe scam, but do we really need 6 topics on this from you smoothie? I know you're a pro troll, but come on. Three would have the same impact as six.
You could sum up all these headlines in thread and would be much effective in getting the word out. Title: Re: [POLL] Is BTC-e on the borderline of being a scammy site to you? Post by: efx on February 14, 2013, 09:37:27 PM Not happy. I'm going to try to keep supplying facts/asking questions without getting banned. My time is coming though, I'm sure.
It really pisses me off to see them censoring valid concerns about any coin and allowing complete fantasy to be spread about others.

I didnt even make comments about BTC-e in a derogatory sense. Title: Re: [POLL] Is BTC-e on the borderline of being a scammy site to you? Post by: efx on February 14, 2013, 10:16:52 PM So...who carried out these bans?
Dev was acting as though he didn't know and wasn't aware of it, he even said he would revoke their rights if necessary. So, I asked him what the logs show. Haven't been able to resolve the site since. Title: Re: [POLL] Is BTC-e on the borderline of being a scammy site to you?

Can't even talk about facts, get censored, banned. Title: Re: [POLL] Is BTC-e on the borderline of being a scammy site to you? Post by: efx on February 14, 2013, 10:34:58 PM Unbanned ;D
Hopefully things will calm down, given time. Title: Re: [POLL] Is BTC-e on the borderline of being a scammy site to you? Post by: BCMan on February 14, 2013, 10:36:20 PM smoothie, you are moron, you know it? No wonder you get banned, even look at your dark yellow ignore button here.

Post by: Ilikeham on February 14, 2013, 10:48:23 PM NO, voting about BTC-e being scammy isn't the same as saying "this is an endorsement for smoothie".
I can say both can't I? Regard Smoothie's typical trolling as less than encouraging of open discussion yet agree that that the site is scammy? Seriously I'd ban you just for the amusement of watching you pop up under half a different ID's like supa yet be totally OK with agreeing with you on NVC. Stay warm Smoothie.

BCMan, if you had the ability to comprehend the information available all over this place, you would know better than to argue about things you do not understand. Perhaps you in fact lack the necessary 'grey matter' ? I suggest that you craft your next response carefully. Educate yourself or be silent.

Post by: efx on February 15, 2013, 12:09:05 AM "decentralization is a matter of time"???? With NVC/PPC?
"Why there's no ltc in your list? Its a scamcoin too?" Several recent threads have been on here that successfully debunk the baseless conspiracy theories. If you wish to bump them, I will be happy to continue the discussion there. Title: Re: [POLL] Is BTC-e on the borderline of being a scammy site to you? Post by: sublime5447 on February 15, 2013, 12:49:36 AM Pretty heated in here. I voted yes. Of course it looks scammy right now. I haven't been able to get on the site all day. I had a 5 min window earlier and got my few coins off the site, but I had funds transferring and am really wondering where they are at about now. The NVC does look like at shit coin to me. I dont know enough about it to say for sure. Also on btc-e the site looks really generic, someone ahd mentioned it to me on otc and when I looked I was like no way am I sending money off the this dinky little nothing site. So yes it is looking scammy right now.
Title: Re: [POLL] Is BTC-e on the borderline of being a scammy site to you? Post by: efx on February 15, 2013, 01:28:26 AM After talking to dev, I'm not overly concerned any more. They do seem to care about maintaining user trust. It was down due to ddos and it is now on cloudflare, which will provide some additional overhead.
Also, add 108.162.200.186 btc-e.com to your hosts file. This "dinky little nothing site" happens to be the only exchange so far that covered its users after a 'security breach' (most of them knowingly sold their coins to the 'hacker', too). It was really just the compromised LR API at the root of it. Even though it's in second place for overall volume to mt. gox, it has so far proven to provide superior customer support.

Title: Re: [POLL] Is BTC-e on the borderline of being a scammy site to you? Post by: btc_lurker on May 16, 2013, 01:28:53 AM BTC-e is completely retard on the ban issue.
Using bots and respecting their artificial limit of one query per second still can get you banned. I'm not fully against the ban, but the huge issue is that you get banned for every kind of access. This means you can no longer access the site, and the support email is a black hole. No email is sent telling the reason for the ban, neither how long will the IP continue banned. There is also the issue regarding dynamic IPs. All in all, BTC-e please get smarter and change the way your ban behaves. Revoke the API key if you must, but don't act like a robber. This also applies for every other kind of ban that is possible in BTC-e: the ban should block /only/ the action that caused the ban, not the fucking whole account for any kind of access. |
