If these swathes of accounts are registering on a limited number of IP, Theymos would know wouldn't he? If I have reasonably connected multiple accounts in an hour, Theymos must have done the same?
Although there are many cases in which IP logs may be inconclusive, the answer is yes. Currently, the global moderators are the ones handing out all of the (or most of the) bans. Previously, BadBear was active and they had access to the IP logs which helped unravel spammers, ban evaders and whatnot much easier than it is now. Theymos rarely handles bans.

All the mods must be aware that this is where a very large % of the spam originates?
The moderators have no access to the IP logs, ergo can't do anything about it.

I hope Theymos can find time to comment here.
Possibly, if you're lucky.

It's not an effortless job to rank up a bunch of BS accounts, especially if they're enrolled in signature campaigns that have rules, and it's not a super high-paying one either.  In fact, it takes some sort of hardcore, dedicated, insane scoundrelly type to come up with this shit to make money.
Correct. However, keep in mind that the problem is also caused by the signature campaigns themselves. They usually are not putting up enough pressure on their participants regarding quality, or just don't care at all. As long as there's no regulation, and not enough pressure from the stuff the situation will keep degrading.

I see a LOT of idiotic opinions about BTC going UP, DOWN, Conspiracy, taxes, Doomsday theories, and pointlessly impossible hypothetical theories.  Taxes, anti anonymous BTC wallets, etc.
That's the problem when you have a lot of unregulated signature campaigns in the Services section. Some members genuinely have horrible knowledge, while others are going to post just about anything to get paid.

Trolls get rank by posting this trash, to get high post counts and more stats on their profile. Insane people are incapable of amassing 100 BTC, and the economic opinions of poor people are an oxymoron.
You're wrong. We have big holders (a nice example would be Roger Ver) who either have very limited knowledge or very faulty knowledge. Intelligence/knowledge in the Bitcoin ecosystem is usually not the causation of a 'fat wallet'.

Should BTC Opinions be valued based on digital signature verifiable wallet size?
Considering everything that was said, the answer is no.

Or do you think Trump will make a good president because he got a couple of billion dollars? Money does make you good at something.
That's a decent example.

Having 100 BTC does not mean you know a lot about BTC, for all anyone knows those coins were amassed when bitcoin was near worthless. If you gathered them in the recent years, it is more impressive for sure, but it could still mean you threw a lot of fiat at it just to buy them. This again, does not make you a bitcoin specialist.
That number is not impressive, but I assume it was just a example with a trivial number. It could be just some random investor that threw in some money in the ecosystem. Do we start listening to them now? Definitely no.

I do apologize there is 1 lealana .10 loaded cas coin unredeemed.  Its saturday and things happen a little slower around my house today  Grin
Thanks for the update! This means that there's still a chance that one of those scratch cards has a lealana, although it's also possible that someone has not claimed it yet.

And btw, im still watching...want to open some packs myself Wink
Does this mean that you have unopened packs or are planning on bidding in the latest auction (or those to come)? It's quite unfortunate that a lot of the low numbered sets (<10) still aren't completed (as the coins are missing).
10885  Other / Archival / Re: . on: August 21, 2016, 12:41:12 AM
I have to check but i think there is another .10 cas loaded brass...have to check.
How long is that check taking? This does reflect on the value of the last few boxes, so please let us know whether there are any prizes left. Also, please tell me that they are none. Cheesy

Well, that means Ive completed at least 10 sets myself then... they're just all "dispersed" LOL

you're funny Cheesy

quick question, I have only heard about 1 maybe 2 people that collected a whole 7 coin set.  Any others out there?
If I'm correct, I have completed the set #9 some time ago. They just aren't at the same location, yet. I'm trying to find the missing piece for the #1 set. That's why we really need people to open or sell their boxes.

I always question why some people put so much thought into this? This is going to happen once you've likely passed away, ergo it won't matter to you. The "end" of the supply distribution is expected to be reached in ~2140 (although it may happen sooner due to the hashrate fluctuations - we've seen this happen with the latest halving). At this point in time, it is expected that the fees have long overtaken the mining rewards and are sufficient for the miners to continue securing the network.

You can read more about the supply here.

Who has unopened boxes? We need to talk Smiley
Exactly. We are still unable to assemble sets, especially some of the lowered numbers. I speculate that either: 1) Some people have found these coins but are intentionally keeping quiet. 2) These coins are in the unopened boxes that some choose to keep. Either option makes the general situation problematic.

That said, besides Mr.Bong does anyone else have any boxes that have not been opened?
