Hi Everybody,

I am Vexica, I work as an assistant PHP Dev for a small publication company and have over 7 years experience in PHP.

I have been asked to take down my "clean" version of the script so instead I will help people fix their versions

If anyone needs help fixing up https://github.com/felinegambler/BitcoinDice please let me know and I will help you

my email is vexica1987@gmail.com

for all this all I ask for in return is some donations for the work i'm putting into it.

You can send donations to 1GyrysfszfzoqsRYP2V5NwWqEgk99Tn4Ko

About the newbie status (as some people would rightly be concerned)

I very rarely visit bitcointalk thats why I never had an account until today, infact I heard about this scam script through a friend on IRC and thought "maybe I could help", So here I am and i'm staying! :)

P.S. and before I received any more private messages asking me "are you female?"..... Yes I Am  ::)

So you think its a great idea to simply give away the CoinDice script????  This isn't your code and its not open source.  So why are you giving away code that is not your code to give?

What do you mean?

According to https://github.com/felinegambler/BitcoinDice


I am simply fixing it for release and ensuring there is no backdoors or malicious code inside, I have not released CoinDice code at all, ive re-released BitcoinDice code.

That original scammer simply uploaded a hacked version of CoinDice.  See -> https://www.cointoli.com/

So you are contributing to the distribution of software that is NOT open source.

Already opening a second account? Weren't you trying to advertise your scam script yesterday.

Do not call anyone a scammer until it's proven.
Thank you for contributing.

Will check the script for flaws.

sorry?

It's okay I forgive you  ::)

No need to "check the script for flaws"...  It is illegally distributed code.  Maybe read a little more before jumping to the defense of something.

LOL, Illegally, I wouldn't go that far. Once I have been prosecuted I will take the code offline :) happy?

it looks like this code is distributed a few places around github (https://github.com/colinkelly/coinDice), I'm only fixing the code that was distributed freely, I did not distribute the code, go to the other thread and complain to theospaul.

So you are NOT distributing the code by putting it on your github account?  I'm confused.

In most countries, copyright infringement is illegal. There are plenty of people who do it anyways... as you are doing, and you're even going a step further. Your asking for donations sent to you for somebody else's code!

You are distributing the code, the fact that others have done so does not make your actions any more ethical.

I'm all for open-source software, but it's the original author's right to decide how they want to distribute their software. What you're doing is either woefully misguided, or intentionally malicious. Which is it?

Okay, Fair enough, Ive removed it from github for the sake of you guys whining.

If anyone needs help fixing up https://github.com/felinegambler/BitcoinDice please let me know and I will help you

I don't begrudge you the fixing up of code, after all that's part of what open source software is all about.

But a single Google search will clearly show who the original author is, and will leave no doubt that the original author is not choosing to distribute the code as open source. There's no excuse for intentionally burying your head in the sand (as it seems you're doing, but maybe you're simply unaware that this is not open source software?)


It's not a matter of whining, it's a matter of supporting individuals who try to write code for a living. I may not want anything to do with gambling sites, but I certainly support the right of developers to write and sell software. If you choose to undermine that... well that's your choice, I doubt the copyright police will come knocking down your door anytime soon. But if you're doing it willingly and with full knowledge of what you're doing, then you're little better than scammers such as Theospaul.

Edited to add: sorry if this came off as a personal attack... Theospaul is certainly scum, and it's unfair to group you in with that character. Hopefully your original posting of this code up on GitHub was just an honest mistake.

Originaly this script is named CoinDice and you guys (you and the guy who opened it before you and filled with exploits) have stolen it from me. It's CoinDice version 1 and current version is 3.3. See my signature.

Please stop distributing my script as yours

How can you make a bitcoind? I have a hosted website from namecheap, hoping for help
