I still feel that you gave a negative trust just based on "assumptions", cuz it has happened before so it will happen again, and as a "trusted" guy hasn't scammed before, so he wont scam in the future. I just feel the neg trust should have been converted to a neutral one(negative is too harsh cuz u gave it based on ASUMPTIONS), and so because of your assumptions, making an account bleed with red trust, is too harsh! I sincerely feel that it could have been a neutral one. If someone has to get scammed he will even get scammed after seeing a red trust, this is just because people tend to ignore the trust ratings because of the way neg. trust gets distributed by other members. The credibility of neg. trust has been reduced a lot and cases like this are making the red trust loose its importance.
I feel the case was more like : The op felt he is trusted, statistically he's untrusted, he offered escrow, hilarious took the offensive approach to defence the community, hilarious gave him a negative trust.
Could have been neutral imo.

Claiming an account to be sold/hacked based on the fact that it hasn't been used since long is rubbish. We've seen many moderators going offline for a couple of months. Does that mean that their account has been sold?
Also, what's the problem in offering escrow? The person might be known to the parties in real world and they both might trust him or there can be other cases. He just offered it, he didn't force anyone to use him as an escrow.
I believe its too harsh for hilariousandco to give him a neg trust.
Havent you read the thread? The account being sold or not does not matter. As i said in my previous thread, what is wrong asking for a loan without collateral? No one forces you to accept it yet they usually end up getting negative trust, thats how things work here. In the trust settings you can read something like: leave neg trust if you think this guy might be a scammer so you are allowed to leave neg feedback if you believe the user might be a potential scammer, saying that i do not see anything wrong with it and if you want to use him as an escrow go ahead and do it is not like negative trust bans your account or locks it so you cant trade with people, its just a rating that you can read This- Also, what's the problem in offering escrow? The person might be known to the parties in real world and they both might trust him or there can be other cases. That's how things work here is no answer to a question. Things aren't supposed to work like this. In the trust settings you can read something like: leave neg trust if you think this guy might be a scammer so you are allowed to leave neg feedback if you believe the user might be a potential scammer But shouldn't a guy in DT2 be more careful and more levelheaded and think more before throwing out a negative trust? More cases like this are just going to hamper the peace of the forum and will be a huge discouragement to the people who actually want to "contribute". Yay more preemptive trust vigilantism... just what the forum needs.
Hey, you're still extremely dark green, man. Don't complain. lol |

Why would it be a good idea for someone to trust someone with their money when you have no prior trading history? Don't you think it would be better if someone were to "roll the dice" with their trading partner and hope they are acting honestly? Don't you think it would be reckless for someone to trust a person with no history of acting honestly with other people's money with their own money?
The question of if your account was sold or not is only distracting from the question of if you should be trusted with other people's money, and if people should trade with caution when considering to deal with you. I would personally think that you should not be trusted with other people's money and that people should proceed with caution when considering to deal with you. The negative rating hat hilariousandco gave you (and the one that I am about to give you) is a warning to others who are considering to trade and/or trust you.
Just wondering that what makes you a better escrow than this guy? You are no better. An escrow's past trading history is no gaurentee of him being honest in the future until someone knows the escrows real world identity(which certainly does makes a scammer worried before scamming people). |

The trade for the 0.06BTC hero member account was done on an IRC chat.
Although I can give you link/proof of another Hero account getting sold for 0.1BTC. Will you still tip me 0.3BTC if I show you the proof for a Hero account getting sold for 0.1BTC? Ill tell you about the buyer, seller and the account name.
BTC0.06 and BTC0.1 aren't nearly the same. Also, how could you tell about the buyer if it's still for sale? I've pmed hexcoin. He has nearly gave me a challenge to show the 0.1BTC hero member account. Ill show you all the proofs, don't worry. |

I think Your account is worth at least 0.06 BTC if you sell it here, I never heard payivy.com before.
Selling account cheaper than current market price is suspicious , maybe your account doesn't really exist.
Don't know much about this market but I've seen these accounts going for as low as 0.02BTC and I've seen Hero's being sold for 0.06BTC. Depends on your luck bro. If you can give me the thread link of that hero account for .06btc and the seller is real im willing to tip you .3btc and im serious.

Just read the thread of the correct abbreviation of bitcointalk.com and the silliness of polls, but that got me thinking of how a successor theymos would be chosen. I hope not by poll  Does the forum a depute admin who would step in, and if so whom? Would theymos decide (if possible) who would replace him? Is it already decided by some kind of ranking, like with successor's in kingdoms? Further, what are the criteria for when the forum needs a new main admin? PS: Let theymos live a long and health life! As already said by many members, maybe badbear will carry on and if there was a poll I would vote for badbear. Can I have a thread or statement from satoshi about theymos becoming admin? I love history btw
I've seen it, Have no clue where it is though. Im sure one of the admins here could find it in a jiffy though. what are you talking about? there's no such thing. satoshi disappeared without a word and left everything to sirius, the co-creator of the forum. I don't know if theymos was already managing the forum when it happened, tho. So Sirius knew who Satoshi was? Or Satoshi knew who Sirius was? |

I wrote to the OP yesterday but still haven't got any reply :/

I have seen them selling for such low price but idk if they were hacked or legitimate accounts.
Being a Jr. Member doesn't let you know anything.
I didn't mean to say it like that. I meant that I haven't seen Hero accounts recently, and since you recently registered I doubted you. Hero member deals are usually caried out in private and a very little part of it goes in public, so don't believe what you see |

I doubt that you've seen a Hero for 0.06, especially as you're a Jr. Member. @OP, I have sent you a PM and I am looking to be the buyer. I have seen them selling for such low price but idk if they were hacked or legitimate accounts. Being a Jr. Member doesn't let you know anything. |

It can do that only if you have got some luck factor. NXT earned me over 200 USD and it was a giveaway. This is the fund I needed to shift to another location that gave me jobs so really thank to cryptocoin for this . So you have to keep your eyes open all the time if really want to go forward .
I don't think that 200$ is enough for studies (not even for like 3month). You gotta have huge reserves if you wanna get good education |

SMS login code not going through and Call me Instead option doesn't seem to be working for me either :/
Anybody else experiencing this issue?
The sms takes some time for me (like 4-5 hours), but call ling option just always works fine. You might try it again. |

I heard the unocoi radio ad but was unaware of the bitpay's campaign. It must have been a short one  |

Can you guys upload the video on youtube? Missed the hangout, but still curious to know that exactly what happened out there.

I am a fresman student in college, I stopped going to school this year because my parents won't support my studies anymore. Do you think I can support my self with cryptocoins?
Depends on where do you live and what do you want to study. If its Oxford/MIT then you surely need huge bucks else there are places where you can spend less. I'm from the Philippines. I can afford to pass any scholarship program here but I'm afraid there is no scholarship suited for me for my course. I need a lot of money because the only school that is offering my course in here is a private school. I was thinking of saving enough money for allowance then look for a job in here and maybe I can be lucky enough to find someone (a politician maybe) who can give me scholarship. The only answer is that yes you can support yourself with bitcoin, but only when you have enough of them |

May be I am speculating here... but I see history is going to repeat itself (not in the same chronological order though)...
Previous Scenario :-
2012 end: Block reward halving
2013 beginning: Hard Fork
2013 mid: Cyprus crisis
2013 end: Bitcoin reached ATH
Current Scenario :-
2015 mid: Greece crisis
2016 beginning: Hard Fork
2016 mid: Block reward halving
2016 end: ? ? ?
Isn't block reward halvening predicted to take place in the beginning of 2016 and not in mid 2016? |

Can someone advice me if this split would affect the price of bitcoin anyhow? If yes how?
As you can see, the price wasn't affected by it at all. Can someone advice me if this split would affect the price of bitcoin anyhow? If yes how?
The "split" like you call it, was resolved by the network 6 blocks after it happened - which shows how resilient (or anti-fragile) the Bitcoin network has become. Regarding the price of bitcoin, please go to the speculation section of the forum. On the other hand, it also shows that the system still has errors that can happen. Don't get me wrong,i am glad that the "issue" was resolved, but i find that it shouldn't have happened in the first place. cheers Good to see that the price wasn't affected, but I guess it would have plunged down if the issue would have taken a day or two to resolve. Also, in this kinda tech, issues will surely arise, you cannot expect them not to happen. |
