Post by: kokjo on June 30, 2011, 08:00:38 PM
Felling worried because of your transactions is not showing up?
Well maybe you should download the blockchain! :D

You might ask how do i download this chain?
It happens automatically! :D just wait!
You can see how much you have downloaded is the down right corner of your client:

You will not receive any transactions before you have downloaded the whole blockchain.
It is most likely why your transactions don't show up.

I love the blatant attempt at scoring some free bitcoins for providing the answer to a super simple (and common) problem. Good work.

On a side note I would like to discourage this sort of thing (helping people only for the sake of getting something in return).

If the forums turn into that by default we will all become bankers, not bitcoiners.
