Title: Evidence that 'nebiki' account changed hands and is now a typical shitposter.
Post by: The Sceptical Chymist on January 28, 2019, 08:54:50 PM
Just making a reference thread, because I'm going to give the account a neg for being bought.

Note that the account nebiki (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=20285) was registered in 2011 and started off posting in German:
die adresse wird nach jeder transaktion geaendert. du kannst allerdings deine alten adressen weiter benutzen. unter "settings -> your receiving addresses" kannst du nachsehen, welche adressen du benutzen kannst.

but also made posts in English, which were structurally pretty good (except for capitalization):
generated 2 blocks within the last 2 days at 425mhash/s. that's 3.5 btc. mining btcs i make about 0.25 a day, so i'll keep pushing my luck on solo mining for bitcoins for another 12 days :)

He posted very sparsely throughout 2012-2013, with the last post in 2013 being this:
hello. i have this jalapeno which has 15 active engines on both chips, reported max hashrate is 8745MH/s and it runs at freaking 2.6V. my other one has 15 engines on both chips, reported max hashrate of 7569MH/s and runs at 3.5V. both very low hw error rate (bfg reports <0.5%). if i apply some pseudo-logic to this, i'd think that the 8745 one is a beast which could run even higher. is it possible with current fw to get this done?

Then there was a huge gap in posting until this post in June 2017:
Your words can't able to pump of the price.  ::)

and the posts thereafter are on the Indonesian local board, like this one (http://ya kalau sekarang ini sy mengira btc sebagai sumber pendapatan sampingan bukan utama karena sekarang ini saya udah ada pekerjaan utama):

, and over time developed somewhat of a hard-on for huge quote pyramids (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2131461.msg29457648#msg29457648) until he starts to post in English in 2018:

I also think that Waves will grow. Do not sell it yet.
hopefully the wave will be able to ride the song so we can sell it again. if for now do not sell it first better in store first, no loss if you save it first.

Right now this member is a typical bounty shitposter dropping gems like these (notice lack of punctuation at the end of his sentences.  He appears to have made a new year's resolution to stop using periods on 12/31/18):
surely because the paper money will never die or be replaced by a digital currency, so whenever paper money will be used anytime and will never be lost
That's right because the blockchain technology is very useful to use, so right now there are many countries that have received or used this technology well
it's true because most people are now holding back from doing daily trading, because the market today is still difficult for us to get profits or income
the real risk of crypto is loss and loss if in my opinion, because there are already so many people who have experienced massive losses and lost a lot of money in my opinion

....and so on.  So there's no doubt in my mind that the account has been bought and is currently being used by a shitposting bounty hunter.  If anyone has any good arguments against this, I'm all ears.  

This thread is self-moderated to keep the spammers and trolls out (cryptohunter, etc.).

You literally made me LOL at the quote pyramids, then the new year's resolution.... :D

I'd say you are 100% correct, this account is definitely changed hands at least once! Funny stuff, thank you!! :D

Here's the moment when I disagree with you pharmacist, the fact that an account changed the original owner that doesn't mean he is a scammer.

A shit poster does shit posts to earn his living, not to scam.

He didn't say the user is a scammer. How good people can be at changing stories at their own convenience, It's like on TV. :o
He just wanted to show the fact that the account does not belong to the same person, by showing the habits previously and lately

Oh yeah indeed, totally true, but i didn't meant that. When someone gets the red tag that's what an user is seeing before going to check why he has the red tag.

Although now he can't join any signature or do anything productive with it.

Got it.
But users shouldn't see a red tag as a "scam alert" but rather as "something is wrong with this user" and that certainly doesn't stop them from checking the details.
He can still use the forum freely and participate in a discussion. That's the main purpose on a forum

You have made the conclusion of this matter very clear. The account has definitely changed hands. What I want you to clarify is the reason for the tag. Is it because it changed hands or because of shitposts?
I tagged it because it was sold or hacked.  The fact that another shitposter has a red tag is just a bonus.

Yeah its completely clear that this users present & past style of writting has been changed dramatically. Anyone can easily detect the difference. Another sign of account buy sell.
The person has not used BTC wallet ID on any of his/her posts, there is a long time gap of his/her post and also s/he posted on local board; before gap s/he posted on German board and after gap posted on Indonesian bord, so undoubtedly ownership has been changed.
Thank you for stating the obvious, and pardon me for now deleting your post.  I'm looking for people who disagree with my logic, not for validation of what I essentially just proved.  I think I'll just lock the thread now and open it back up if nebiki sends me a PM.
