    I can be a pretty lazy person sometimes, so one of my biggest interest is how to make some btc doing as little as possible. So the first thought that came to my mind was owning a btc faucet.
    Is there anyone here who owns/owned a faucet? Did you make any profit, how did u do it and, for those who are planing to start one in the future, is it worth it?

Yes. But you need a considerable amount of investment at first (not like some $1 in Bitcoins) or else your balance will be long gone before you can begin making money.

I invested BTC0.1 into my faucet and monetized it with Google AdSense. Just post it in here under "Micro Earnings" and set your referral commission to about 25% to get into some BTC rotators, and the ads started making profit.

Is there any alternative way . . . where I can earn bitcoin
- snip -
I have enough time

Use that time you have to get a job (or start a business).

If you can convince your boss (or your customers) to pay you with bitcoins, then your problem is solved.

If you cannot convince your boss (or your customers) to pay you with bitcoins, then exchange the money you get from the job (or business) for bitcoins at a bitcoin exchange (such as Localbitcoins, Circle, Coinbase, BitStamp, BitFinex, etc.)

tbh, a lot of the people on BCT are kids. They won't have a job.

unbelievable. No one here reads what anybody else posted. This whole fucking board is a joke.

Why don't you guys stop farming for posts? Post some useful stuff for your signature campaigns or just stop.

The person you pointed to did not have a signature campaign on their profile.     So this comment is really inaccurate.  

But in a year chances are a full member can get 1 BTC from a signature campaign.   Faucets will be pennies avoid those and other things like them.

I personally like mining.  If you have cheap electricity it can still be done at a profit.

I wasn't pointing at him. I was referring to his post and how everyone else ignored it; sorry for the confusion.

To clarify, signature campaigns are great. It's a good way for hobbyists to earn some change while posting. But when people start posting useless answers over and over again? Yeah.

Are you going to use that certain account? Because your trust isn't very good.

I have used 000webhost and it's fine but don't use it much long, It's much better a cheap host than a free one

Thanks!
I'll use it to get my first bucks (So that I can run a faucet investment free) and i'll use those bucks to buy a decent cheap hosting.
Which "cheap" hostings do you recommend for faucets?

I don't think it's possible to create a faucet for free. You need to deposit BTC into it in the first place.

I used to own a hosting company but I stopped it. I heard that iPage is good, but I've never used them.

You can only receive 14 activity for every two week period.
Here is how it is calculated according to the Unofficial list of rules here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=703657.0
Quote from: mprep
Q: How does activity work?
A:
Quote from: theymos
The activity number is determined in this way:
time = number of two-week periods in which you've posted since your registration
activity = min(time * 14, posts)

Activity is updated every hour.

For example, if in a 14 day period you post 14 posts, you gain +14 activity.
If you post 2 posts in a 14 day period, you gain +2 activity.
If you don't post at all in a 14 day period, you don't gain activity.
However, if you post 15 or more posts in a 14 day period, you still gain only +14 activity.

Some extra reading on it: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=582736.0

Oh, I see. Thanks for the help. Closed thread.

Sorry; moved it now.

My post count atm is 40, and my activity is 28. It used to go up at about the same rate, but then it just stopped at 28, which is why I'm wondering if there is a different limit. It also seems a bit too much of a coincidence that this happened right before Jr.
Make 2 more posts and let the magic happen. There is a formula somewhere in the section here. You should look for it as it is accompanied with much more information.
I'd copy it myself but then there'd be no work left for you.  Wink

I don't think you understand. I have 40 posts already and my activity is stuck at 28. Is 42 some magic number or something for ranking up?
1173  Other / Meta / Re: Is there some sort of activity limit? on: May 27, 2015, 09:32:17 PM
This is the wrong section. Forum related threads go to meta.
Yes, there is a limit. Your post count must be higher than your activity. Other than that, there is no limit.

Sorry; moved it now.

So I noticed that my activity stopped at 28 for a while now. It's on the verge of 30 (Jr. Member), so I was wondering if there was some sort of rank-up limit that you can't rank up to Jr. within a month of registration. Is there?

It's the Internet; it's practically impossible for anything to be completely hack-proof.
Yeah, go hack OpenVMS, there are several freely accessible installations under the "enthusiast" license now offered by HP.


I'm sure that one of the bigger hack groups like Anonymous would be able to hack that.
1177  Other / Meta / Re: Should I change my password if it's like a brick wall? on: May 27, 2015, 04:19:03 PM
My password is like a brick wall reinforced with steel bars. I have written it down manually and type it in manually every time I use it. It's over 100 characters long. Special characters, capitals letters and numbers are all included. Its a randomly generated password.

Am I in risk of losing more data? my understanding they would need to still bruteforce the password because its not stored in plain text in the database. Which being realistic is almost impossible and would take hundreds of years.

Should I change my password?

Yes. Especially if you use the password for other sites as well.

Which being realistic is almost impossible and would take hundreds of years.

Realistically speaking? It would take quadrillions on quadrillions of years for the average bruteforcer.

I don't think you guys really appreciate the security levels. It's the Internet; it's practically impossible for anything to be completely hack-proof. I wouldn't be surprised if the forum had over 5 hack attempts per day. The staff members are doing everything they can and all you guys can do is whine about a single break-in that was dealt with pretty quickly.
1179  Other / Meta / Re: A few staff members been removed recently? on: May 27, 2015, 05:17:00 AM
Yes, some global moderators have been demoted, for security reasons until they come back after the hack.

If you don't mind me asking, what's the difference in the security of the accounts of the current staff members' accounts and the demoted ones? Or is it just the lesser number of staff members that could be hacked?

In attacks like this, the accounts of staff and other higher ranked members are usually the targeted ones. If ever a staff member account was compromised due to the attack, demoting could probably be a nice way to minimize the potential damage that the hacker could possibly do with the staff member account. Remember, a staff member's account has more privileges compared to a normal forum member's account.

So are you saying that all/most of the staff members that were demoted were either hacked or were extremely susceptible to being hacked?

I'd go for extremely susceptible, given that there are many legendary and VIP members that had been compromised after the attack. Staff accounts could probably be compromised too unless theymos hears a word from them and signing a message together with that word. Until then, it is best to just demote them for a little while until they prove that their account remains under their full control.

Got it. That makes more sense.
