1121  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What I learnt from a crackhead about gambling on: December 05, 2023, 06:25:04 PM

Addiction is addiction. It does not matter how the mechanism of dysfunctional brain chemistry is triggered but the effects are what we call "addiction". Whether it was a drug or gambling addiction does not matter. The difference is physical. A drug addiction will literally bring your body into irreversible ruin and maybe even into death.

But again, not everyone who does drugs is a drug addict just like not everyone who gambles is a gambling addict.

It is important to make distinctions.

I don't think comparing drug addiction to gambling addiction is a good thing, though they are not advisable or recommendable to any one but comparing them is just not acceptable, reason I said so is, gambling addict doesn't necessarily mean someone who is gambling irresponsibly. However I have seen some gambling addict, who have turned gambling to their life career, and the interesting part is that most of the time they make a lot of wins, like in thousands of dollar. And most of these gamblers have built their houses from money they got from gamble, though some of their losses can be quite big as well. While on the other hand there is no gain from drug addiction, but rather they're just reducing their lifespan by first, damaging some organs in there body like lungs and liver.
1122  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Faulty POS terminal or network issue? on: December 05, 2023, 06:05:53 PM
When you say POS terminal,  what are you referring to? Is it the POS machine or the brand of the POS?
In cases of failed transaction, it's almost certain that the cause of the failure Is as a result of network issue either from your bank or the receiver bank, which in your case is tye pos machine.  possibility you could look out for as the source of the issue, it could be one of the following.

What you should have done would have been to go to another pos stand and make transaction to ascertain the cause of the problem since your mobile banking and atm see giving you the same failed result.

Pos terminal naim be the pos machine itself, and to be honest I don hardly hear say fault like this na from the pos, though e dey happen but e dey very rear. And you no go blame the op for using transfer, after all with wattin em write e show say na the first time e dey try to use transfer for that pos. Normally the fault fit be from em bank, na one of the reasons why I hate banks be that, especially this Christmas period. Before you go know now you go hear say money don dey scarce and banks no go come dey get network again, na just matter of time we go hear am, because na their normal thing every December. Na why I no dey like use bank, even if I receive the money for bank, the one wey I know say I fit spend within short period of time, I dey move am to my opay account, because of their fast transaction. Though, e nor dey advised to put enough money for there oo, just put amounts lower than 200k. Na the only best alternative wey I get be this.
1123  Local / Off-topic (Naija) / Re: Selfish Nigerians on: December 05, 2023, 02:37:55 PM
In this day an era, my broda or sista wey be the OP, make I tell you in capital letters say, NOTHING IS HIDDEN UNDER THE SUN. Shey you get andriod phone, and you fit get at least N500 to take connect to the internet? If yes, e nor get update wey dey hidden na we just dey too lazy to find am.

Take this forum for example, e get some people wey be say na person give them the update, e also get some people wey be na for internet dem find the forum. Update or no update , just sabi how to use the internet.
Oga davidvictorson wetin you talk na true , nothing wey no dey dis our internet.  Every update man dey look for e dey for internet just that some people no sabi use internet. Like this our forum , e get some people wey hey this update by themselves just by browsing the Internet.  People are making good money from the Internet.

My brother the way una talk am no be so e be, if you know how hard men don search reach for google to get online update dem, una no go talk that thing wey una talk, if to say you know how many videos men don watch for YouTube just to get update you go think twice before you make that statement. OK make I shock you, try make you go setting then clear your browser data usage space to 0mb, then make you write bitcoin or related search about bitcointalk but make you no put the talk after the bitcoin weda you go see this platform .Yes na true say some people naturally lazy to search while others believe say anything online na illegal or scam, but that one no mean say those wey never get the update na lazy dem lazy, I don still try to work for freelancer and upwork before but now na so so scammers naim don full those forum, I no go lie you, many update dey wey still dey hidden not because we are lazy to search but because some of them get regional restricted.

 Just imaging this forum now, person wey no know anything about wey create account go gats pay money to become copper member and em dey find update, I no go lie you if to say na you, you no go like pay that money because e fit be scam method to take your money, and besides you no go fit post anything with that account to get help from members. So my brother e no easy no be the wey una dey talk am, dem say "it is easier said than done"

To prove say e nor dey easy, how many legit update wey you get?
1124  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Faulty POS terminal or network issue? on: December 05, 2023, 02:04:29 PM

What are your thoughts?

Actually this same issue occurring to many other pos users, I have also had one experience of N5000 debit without confirmation in their POS machine but, in my case when I went to the bank for reversal they told me, that I'll received the money back in 14 days, but after the 14 days, I didn't receive any money but I just ignored the stress of going to the bank again, so I left the money hung on the air.  However I think the fault to this problem might be from the both sides, let me explain, there are certain times I do experience a particular pos terminal rejecting my card, while another terminal in the same pos point accept it easily. And I have also seen a pos attendant checking network from banks before allowing card withdrawal or transfer from bank because, if you transact with them within this period, you'll be receiving a debit without confirmation from their terminal. So 70% of my believe is that the fault is from your bank while 30 on the pos terminal because faults from pos are mostly card rejection.

Op thank you very much as you bring this kind of better knowledge come board, this pgp message encryption na the best way wey I don know how to send private message publicly. Person wey wan send massage make na only one person you want make e fit understand wattin you wan pass as message, na this best way wey I know be this. According to wattin I been read dem talk say the idea of this pgp message encryption na from when we been never advance wey military dem dey use codes take dey pass message during war between nations, so that na only their person go fit understand am come reply in same code manner. However today na wattin most people don dey use, even my self been don encrypt one message send give Bitcoingirl and na only am fit read the message and e come reply to prove say e work. 

Though, I nor know weda hacker fit penetrate oo, but even if them try I know say e no go easy. This process for Linux look like say e go hard oo, the one wey I been do na for windows I use and na for kleopatra I take encrypt the message. I for like try am but I no get Linux OS and I no dey plan to remove my windows install Linux.

Jamestown70 thank you for the advice and the reminder wey you carry come local board, because na the right time wey you carry come, why I say na the right time na be say , that testimony wey one of our local board member post say dem send her 25k na real, plenty people don testify say the money don come, and because of that reason my WhatsApp na so so referral links naim full am. Any time I enter na so I see person wey post this federal government palliative wey be 25k, and this matter just week me. Person wey dey work with people wey dey dispense the money say na even for buhari tenure naim dem take collect names wey dem go send randomly give. But for the links online na tinubu dem write, so make we shine our eye, one hacker fit just develop site like that take dey collect our information, or use from the site take hack our device, so make we dey careful and any site wey dem say dem dey double money just know say na scam. E no get as e wan be, real money no dey come so easily.
1127  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Emulate those with the potentials of your dreams to reality exhibitions on: December 05, 2023, 06:25:23 AM
Op I can boost that many member here especially top members of this forum, are not just using sugarcoated words to deceive any, or make them sound like a professional, and even if some members are just liers  that shouldn't be your problem because, they will surly fish them out and give them a ban. But on a clear note you can actually tell if they are professional by the quality of terms used, except maybe in local board that we do try to make thing very simple and easily understood. Though it might be difficult to identity those who are actually saying the what they practice because, in this forum any useful personal info is not advised to be disclosed publicly, there was a time were I created a post announcing my first set of satoshi which I bought, and I posted prove to the public by screen shooting my transaction. But after posting that, I was advised to immediately remove it from my post, and I did as I was instructed. So if it weren't for scammers, hackers and robbers I don't think hiding of prove would be necessary. However, I don't think its necessary to doubt any one because most statement are in form of advise, and that might be what you need at that time.

1129  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: I could have won bigger. on: December 04, 2023, 02:34:07 PM
Wow, the odd you placed your stake on is quite big, I have never picked any odd that in total will bring 45 odd, the highest I have done is 15 odd and I don't usually pass that limit. Though I am much of a gambler, I gamble twice a month but I'm satisfied with what the outcome is. Assuming your friend paid on time and you used all the money for gambling on that odd, the outcome would have been more interesting, and on your own side I think you'll be encourage to stake high next time. However somethings are better left the way they are, since its just a prediction and we are 100% sure of what the future holds, assuming you lost the bet, you can still go back to your friend for him to repay and use that one to place another bet.
1130  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: I'm looking for sites with good sports predictions on: December 04, 2023, 08:02:56 AM
I can see you have already been supplied with enough links from prediction site however, I don't believe in sport predictions from site because, I have tried many of them and the loss I got from trying them, was nothing compared to when I used my own perspective to judge my prediction, some of their prediction are almost accurate but since its coming from a human like me with one brian, I don give heed of any of them. I have also learnt from friends that some of them get their prediction from some telegram groups, but I won't advise any one to go their because, their are lots of scammer using sport prediction to scam people, I came across one who asked me to make a deposit before he'll give me some predictions, but I refused to pay because I was suspicious and latter I found out that he is a scammer who'll offer fake prediction and collect your money. So I'll advise you keep off from telegram sport predictions.
1131  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: coin memes don't have a project? Is it worth buying for the long term? on: December 04, 2023, 07:46:45 AM
Meme coins are useless and they have no long term prospects. One thing good about them is that they are honest with the fact that they are useless.

What Musk did to Doge coin was manipulation.

Although, I accept I have used Dogecoin often due to it's minimal transaction fees, but that's all there is to it.

I am in support of your statement that musk manipulated the Doge coin, normally we all all can attest to the fact that without his influence in the coin, doge coin wouldn't have gotten to where it is right now, mr musk acted as a catalyst to help the adoption of the. However I am not in support of holding what I don't like, and altcoin in general is never my thing, I prefer my patience in bitcoin after all, we have been experiencing an increase in the price of bitcoin and this is good one to start with before the halving and then the bull run. I would confess that meme coin can be some time tempting to invest in, the profit most of them give is sometimes not comprehensible, while most of them still tend to make their investor cry of pain from loss.
1132  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Bitcoin price speculation (BTC/NGN) on: December 04, 2023, 07:21:33 AM

1136  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What I've learned so far as a gambler on: December 03, 2023, 10:29:05 AM
Wow. So much guts to even gamble with $200 at once Shocked . I don’t advise anyone to directly stake their $200 at once. Instead of that, you can stake $20 and try to double that. I know that on your way to the $200 extra, you’ll lose some of the bets, but gradually you can get there. It’s better to slowly win or even slowly lose (if luck isn’t on your side that day) than a one shot 50/50 chance of losing all the money. But I get what OP is trying to say; don’t be greedy, don’t think you can build castles overnight, 2 times your money is enough to leave and be content, and I agree.

I agree with you that starting a gambling or depositing with higher figure will only make you to either have high wins or high loss, so its better to start with a small amount or gamble with small amount because, the feeling of playing more to recover from your lost might occur and you might end up emptying your account just to recover from your loss, I often gamble with small amount of money so as to control my the feeling of playing to recover, that feeling is one of the reasons some person are called irresponsible gambler and with that tittle on your head I don't think it will portray good example when your being described.

Now  a days, our youth dem dey deliberately dey lazy, dem no wan Cary their hand do strong work again, I know say the government dem sef contribute for this laziness wey our youths dey portray but we no go put all the blame for their head because, I don still see people wey leave their hand work go learn street because the street dey pay pass their hand work. Many no be 2 no be 5 dem plenty wey dey leave their hand work, then when e come to the government their side most times no be dem dey cause am, na the people wey dem give the opportunity to recruit people naim dey make job scarce to some level. E dey very common for this country say plenty job recruiter dey use the system of man know man take dey employ people for work.

I no dey surprise to hear say celebrities dem dey actually invest in bitcoin, because bitcoin and the entire crypto space deals with enough anonymity, so I so suppose expect anybody to come out side say em dey hold bitcoin before I go fit get hint weda em dey truely hold. Minus celeb dem sef we get so many people wey dey into crypto yet e just like say nothing come out, just imaging say we no get bitcoin enthusiasts for our country, this how come we take dey become one of the nations wey dey adopt bitcoin or other crypto. I believe say ones the government remove this restriction, Nigeria go be like El Salvador, many transaction would be done using bitcoin and e go still help increase our international tourism rate, meaning we go get many outsiders wey go come for tourism for we country.

Normally Nigeria naim get one of the hard working individuals wey fit go the extreme level to prove success, if you talk about tech we get so many technicians both locally and international level, if you call music I go say na er be the best. But all this na individual benefits no be say na for the whole country, this achievement outside the country just dey make our country get good name for outside but for inside na die we dey. And that thing no good at all, because even for the holy book Jesus make emphasis on am, when e been dey talk say the Pharisees dem be like grave wey for the outside dem design am but the inside dey full with dead dry bones. Our citizens dey try but our government nor dey do wattin go justify say dem dey appreciate our efforts.
