Title: Thank you for the great resource.
Post by: leewilson on December 12, 2013, 11:14:01 PM
Thank you for such a great forum.  I have read it many times over the last few months, but have never created an account.
I have usually been able to research any problems without having to ask for the answer.

I know I will have many questions in the future and am sure I will receive much appreciated help.
Hopefully I will be able to return as much as I use. 
Which would be fairly hard because of the sheer amount of knowledge I have already gained from these forums.

Good luck to everyone.

I have neither used a faucet nor asked for coins...What are your view points on these two practices?

Not worth in my opinion, both  :)
Put a BTC address to your sig if you become active here.

Faucets are good way to learn for a newbie that how transaction works, how to see your balance in blockchain.
Other than that, it's a waste of time while faucet owners earn from advertisements.

faucets usually gives you back dust that's not even possible to spend because the fees to do so would be higher.
Also begging isn't allowed.

First post --

Would also like to say thanks. I made a nice chunk of change over the last 4 weeks thanks in part to this forum and the people who post information on all the different coins. Keep up the good work.

Thank you for the advice.  And I will put my BTC address in my sig.
Is there any reason you do not put your BTC address in your sig?

That's what has always stuck out to me. Thanks for the input.

I, myself, still don't know how to see a balance in blockchain.  Looks like more research needs to be done on my end.

Dust...Love it.  The fee angle I had never thought of and really sums it all up.

Good to hear about the no begging.

Faucets pay so little, it is not worth. Imagine getting 100 Satoshi per solved captcha - the worst paid job

Hey langfhir...I am very happy to hear about your success.  Would you care to explain more on how you did it?  
What type of rig are you running? how much hash power?  any specific coins that you feel are better?  
I am very interested and all ears :)

I am currently only using the gpu that came in my computer (radeon hd 6670...it really cranks out the computations lol) but
I really want to build a rig or two.

Ok.  I did not know if it was because of security. 
Apparently I need a lot of tips.

Do you have referral accounts attached to the links in your sig?
