I don't believe it can be stopped at all.
I think the only way to lessen the problem is with education. Otherwise, I can only think that the only way to stop the attacks, sadly, is by joining them.

Perhaps the better question is how terrorism can be prevented to prevent future attacks. I believed the US government or other countries for that matter should not in interfere in other countries issues. That's why lot of Muslims blamed USA and in turn become a terrorist.
Do muslims need to blame someone in order to became terrorists? Or are they just blaming every single non-muslim man on the Earth...


There are many Muslims around the world but only a few are terrorist, but a majority of them believed that the West particularly the US and the Jews is to blame for everything that is wrong with their lives.

Although I don't like the killing of endangered animals, the East Asians need to be appreciated for their diverse diet. This helps them to assemble nutrient rich meals, even at the time of droughts and other natural catastrophes.

Eating dog meat also boost their energy specially during winter time. I read about an article before saying that their is actually a festival in China for eating dog meat(correct me if I'm wrong). Plus eating dog meat in China goes back far beyond history.

If Trump manages to resolve the disputes with Russia, then both the countries can benefit out of it. The biggest threat facing the United States right now is Islamist terror. To eradicate this issue, support from Russia is necessary.

Actually Trump is not against Russia, if you would listen  to his interview regarding Russia, he said nothing bad with Russia or its foreign policy in Ukraine and Syria. He is even opened to meeting Putin personally so there's nothing to resolve as far as Russia is concern.
11945  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is your gambling strategy on: January 08, 2017, 12:52:13 PM
i cant treat like greedy , i control my feeling , and always play with small amount , i always win
You always win? believe me it's just you're getting a good luck. But indeed, if you can control yourself in gambling, you are a good gambler because self-control and discipline is the most important thing for you to succeed in gambling and that you're not addicted. But it is great if your victory continues for a long time, it means that your strategy was running smoothly.
He's just lying. You can't always win especially when you're gamble. Even though he's used highest win chance, he'll losing in the end. Maybe he's just gamble 0.001 btc (because he said he's just played with small amount) and always stop when he doubled his btc (I'm sure he was just lucky enough, there is no any strategy will works for a long time)
yeah any strategy used in gambling would never work if you try to apply it for long term, too much factor that supporting the house edge would always in benefit. and we are as gambler have 50/50 chance in short period but then if you play regularly for long term it could changed to 10% for you and 90% for the casino.

And the longer you stay in the casino to play, the more chances of you losing what you have won. So once you hit, whether big or not, you should go home and enjoy your winnings. You can't beat the house.

I would say my biggest bitcoins regrets are not going into Bitcoin when I had the first chance to get it in early 2012 coz I figure it out to be worthless. I guess I should have listened to my friend who invested in it way back. I put my invested somewhere else which brought me nothing.

11948  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why is gambling so addicting? on: January 06, 2017, 01:10:33 AM
The reason of most of the gamblers think that they are lucky enough

This is nonsense, no one thìnks that he is lucky enough to win. Actually it is your curiousity to test your luck or either your greed that wants to win more and apart from that I dont really see how you could be thinking that you are lucky today and might win anything from the house, that is just nonsense things to think about

People want to win again and again and keep coming back, its all about the money and the greediness...
and for every time they go back with a lost and again they urge to win and return their money back, but over all they remain in lost and it make them addicted,

That's why you should not have to think to take back the money you had lost, it will not work, which happens to be the opposite, you will continue to lose money, little by little until they run out. Then you try to do anything to get back to gamble, and happens again, you lose your money again and again. It continues as an endless loop. And the times that one of the features people who are already addicted to gambling.

Gambling is so addicting if you won in a sports betting game with a big amount of bitcoin and for the next time you want the same luck to happen again and you always expected to win. The more you lose in the game of chance is the more you will be addicted to it because in your mind you wanted to cope up with those times you lose investments and you are hoping for another chance but chances of losing is always there rather than winning.
Gambling is indeed addicting because you think that you can win money again and again these days..






this is the great lie coming from the house allowing you to win in some instance but engaging you to become addicted, with that small earnings you will be attracted to keep on coming back trying your luck and when bad streak start to show up your bankroll will be wrecked up as well.
11949  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can gambling be considered a "high risk investment"? on: January 06, 2017, 01:08:22 AM
Gambling is indeed a high risk activity but it is not an investment. It's high risk because you can double you money or even x1000 it in just one second! The risk is really high and the return is too. But this cannot be an investment. Gambling is gambling. There is no way this can be investing as you are just relying in chance and nothing about investment.

Exactly! In investment there is some kind of... Work that can be done.
You can study multiple factors to know if the market is in good shape, if the company is reliable, if the economic situation is good, all that in a global and/or local perspective! You can do market research and market studies, you can do surveys, take the temperature of customers, compare with similar products...

All that added to a financial study of risks and profits, everything being compared to determine if an investment is a good one or not. That's a lot of works but that means you have different leverages to act on.

Whereas in gambling... Your only possible action will be to click on a button. Not much more...

This is true, I think that  its a high risks investment but can be considered as that for sure.
investment without having any particular assurance that you will able to gain something? i guess it can't be called investment as many of us just rely with our luck, investment includes analysis and knowing that they have tie frame to gain the profits so i see nothing can be consider talking about gambling.
11950  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Your new year start in gambling! on: January 06, 2017, 01:05:35 AM
Hey guys!

Don't want to brag or anything but I had a freaking good 2017 beginning!! I hope it's the same for you  Wink

Transformed my 0.04btc from my sig campaign into 0.25 while btc was hitting the 1000$  Grin Grin Grin



That can seem as small amounts but it's not for me and I think it's like the first time I multiply my initial gambling amount by 5  EDIT: by 6 in fact  Cheesy !

Did anyone hit a jackpot on this begining of 2017?

I have nothing special in the beginning of 2017 from my gambling actions. All running as usual but frankly, nice to see you started 2017 with a good profit. Wish I can get the same luck as yours soon! Btw, congratulations!

11951  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: If no one spends bitcoin what might happen? on: January 06, 2017, 01:03:18 AM
Most likely the bitcoin will go to a lower point and maybe even crash to a very low amount, this can really happen for sure!
i think it will be hype if no one will spend it and just hold it and wait for a good price before trading or using it, bitcoin really giving good indication as one of the best investment i'm sure with the price right now most of the traders already using or exchanging it to take the advantage and generates income.
11952  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling investment is zero sum on: January 06, 2017, 01:00:50 AM
Just for fun in the world of betting bitcoin there are too many options one of most I love is social gambling like bitdouble.io or sportsbooks like 1XBIT and Nitrogenous if you want to make money just take a job, gambling isn't the way.
that's completely right if you want some good earnings find a decent job as gambling is not a good investment risk really big even playing with the house the possibility of getting busted is still there so better play for fun and gamble with full responsibility.

11955  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling problem on: January 06, 2017, 12:54:42 AM
possible addiction is a big problem for the gambler. Well, if the gambler is really hooked on gambling, it could make them run out of money. besides, the addiction, they will be very easy to bet money that they have without thinking that it will make them be on the road to bankruptcy.
Yeah that's right in my opinion  gambling addiction is a big problem to every gamblers or even gamblers family because they can lead them to bankruptcy and they can effect their daily lives

It is not even a new problem in the society when we talk about gamblers. I guess addiction today is just a pretty normal situation since governments are making it as a profitable institution for the taxation of casino's. But the gamblers needs to face their own fate when they are losing big money in it because that will affect their lives.
Well, governments seems to be changing the way they handle addictions, in recent years more and more people are advocating for the legalization of different drugs arguing that it is not the government business to tell them what to do with their bodies and I see something similar happened to gambling.
But they still needed to be very careful decisioning about this matter as we all knew that gambling addiction really can wrecked a life not only with a single individual but the entire family so i guess its still a big responsibility for our government to prevent addiction of their country men.
The problem is that is difficult of legislate, in one hand those that want to gamble, have a right to do so,  but in the other hand, gambling can be very damaging to some people so the government needs to protect those persons, so like you see it is difficult to strike the middle point.
for sure it can be a big debate but one thing is for sure government is not worried about having nation that have gambling activities as long as they are gaining money coming from the taxes for sure they will allow this activity no matter what.
11956  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can trading be considered as gambling?? on: January 06, 2017, 12:52:21 AM
its one's decision if they believe trading as gambling but for me it is gambling because you are risking your money to lose and you can also earn which is gambling but you can not earn fast on trading unlike gambling.
Dude, gambling is a way to have fun/relax yourself. it isn't a job from which you can earn money. sure you can profit a little, but not earn. while in trading you can earn decent amount of money over long-term.
in fact the are some feather of trading that are similar to gambling, but over all gambling is different from trading, in trading you need to have good knowledge about the currency or any other items where you are going to invest your money, while in gambling you totally depend on your luck.
and depending on your luck always have a much bigger risk rather than knowing your advantage as we know that trading needed some research and good analyze we still have a big advantage when we get into it in the right timing as we will surely earn coming from our investment unlike gambling risk is much bigger than gain.

For over two years you have kept this coin above water.

Considering the sad state of altcoins, you deserve a pat on the back qiwoman2. Congrats!





I appreciate your kind words means a lot..Yes I have seen a huge dump again but I have some ideas on how to pick up the price but I just need to get more earnings in order to be able to get more buy pressure in. Despite being scammed a lot by various DEVS and income opportunity Admins I never give up and will keep going until QBK is a real success. We have a community to look after and I will never turn my back on it.  Smiley. I am getting a refund soon form one site it's not a lot but I will use that to buy more assets and some buy support to take off some more coins off the exchange..I should get some in 2 weeks and then in FEB/MARCH..  Smiley.
as long as we still seeing you not turning your back with your project the more confident we are that this coin will still proceed to its original purpose success will follow just keep your heads up dev and allow yourself to grow together with your coin, good luck
11958  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Trading is unpredictable job. on: January 06, 2017, 12:42:57 AM
As per current situations we can easily speculate the levels of price movements still unpredictability nature remains same as our fear of loss always support it.
Of course trading is an unpredictable job, I mean anything that has a profit out of it involves risks, the bigger the risk the bigger the profit, gambling is the best example for this,  trading involves risks when it comes to predicting the long term invest, if you tend to put on long term you get more profit, if you put on short term the profit is not that big.
as long as you are aware about your investment and what is the promise coming from its project you will be able to sort things out whether you go with long term or do just a day trading and have a quick profits and like what you mention the long term will give you much good earnings rather than doing the short one.
11959  Economy / Speculation / Re: Another Bubble Bursts – Bitcoin China Crashes Over 30% on: January 06, 2017, 12:40:46 AM
because bitcoin price is very high
you can see in huobi and okcoin use pair cny
start bitcoin price 4000 yuan, incraese without corection price until 7500 yuan
so if no down price only corection price, but i think stable price in rank 900 - 1000 dollar/bitcoin
well that's right if we can hold to this barrier i guess we are still fine, the price really hyped so for sure those early holders take that advantage and its normal with btc fluctuation all of us still waiting to get our entry in a good position so better sorting and waiting for the bottom price to keep earning.
