I got the same negative trust for selling keys. Like people doesn't know how to read, in my thread there is warning about risk of buying those...

anyway, this guy should be banned permanently
You never put the warning on there when Vod left his feedback for the keys, you put the warning on there this week after I left you negative feedback and said I would make it neutral if you added the warning.

You seem to love misleading people.  Huh

Buyers should now be aware of the illegal keys they are buying and any repercussions, hopefully they will be smart about it.

However, I'm waiting for you spamming around to other sellers. What are you waiting? Why I'm the only one under attack?  Grin
Nevermind, people should understand what are MSDN keys. It's half legal we can say.
It's the same like you resell anything else, you shouldn't. Then everything is illegal..
If there are others, PM me the threads.

1267  Economy / Digital goods / Re: ♠♠♠♠ AMAZON GIFT CARDS ♠♠♠♠ 100$ FOR 75$ !!! on: June 02, 2015, 06:10:54 PM
Gift cards are bought by Canadian guy with his personal credit card.
Cut the crap and leave me alone.

Go and spam other sellers and provocate them.

If we would follow conspiracy theories then all gift cards here on the forum are scams...please stop.
Just trying to earn some money and about MSDN keys, I can guarantee you it will work more then 3 years. Even if they work 3 years only, HELLO!!!!! you paid it few dollars instead of 500$ !!!!!

You cannot guarantee this and I never said selling gift cards was a scam.

While there is no solid proof on my theory that you are probably selling gift cards to launder money, there is plenty of proof that your selling illegal keys and unless you are stating this in your thread, you are misleading buyers.

Why not be upfront with buyers about the keys?  There should be nothing to hide.

I'll even come up with the text for you:
"These keys are being sold under an MSDN account that is legally only supposed to be used by the account holder, and is only supposed to be used for testing/software development. Microsoft sees selling of these keys as illegal. When/If the main MSDN account is blacklisted due to the sale of these keys or for any other reason, all keys under the account would also be blacklisted and will begin failing activation and become unlicensed. Buy at your own risk."

If you are willing to make this text part of your sales thread(s) for selling of these keys, I will be more comfortable changing the feedback to neutral. If not, then I believe buyers should be warned to trade with extreme caution.

so i dunno much about his microsoft scam, but he just sold me $100 amazon gift card and went first.. legit
microsoft itself is a scam so from what i can and mostly cannot see is if anything hes just following their business ethic.. a sort of respect of the product, no?
http://www.giftcards.com/gcgf/money-laundering-the-gift-card-industry

great so some drug dealers are cleaning out their money .. like it affects my life in any tangible way
what actually effects me is the crap microsoft peddles that half works half the time at best with their semi monopoly on the entire market.. anyways they have enough money i wouldnt bat an eyelash if someone told me they were ripping them off.. i dont have to have empathy or even emotion towards a nonhuman entity .. unless hes scamming users here please get off the high horses.. we all know what bitcoins have the potential to be used for and my personal dream is that they will fuel that microsoft crunching revolution one day

I'm just explaining to you why you have had a successful trade with a criminal.

What your not understanding is that when his account is reported, or Microsoft sees the unusual activity on his account, when his account is blacklisted/removed/suspended, those keys will also be blacklisted. In my eyes, this is scamming people, especially when your not upfront about that detail.

You can have all your issues with MS you want, I do have my own, but the trust is left to protect and warn others.

Buyers are taking the risks mate. Thanks for ruining my account with that fake trust you gave me without even trying my keys.
You're right, buyers are taking a very large risk when dealing with you... but nothing in any of your posts about you selling these keys states this.

I have no doubt the key would work, but you are not telling anyone the truth about the keys you are selling. I'm not ruining your trust, I'm giving warning to anyone new that thinks your selling normal retail Microsoft keys, for those that want to buy illegal keys, they probably do not care about your trust rating.

First of all, don't worry about my trust. I got it because this user Vod thinks I'm selling invalid microsoft keys and he obviously doesn't know what is MSDN.



100$ Amazon gift card - IN STOCK

PRICE: 80$ or 0.355730BTC (negotiable)

PM , can do escrow, can send first to trusted members

You *are* selling illegal Microsoft keys. What do you think MSDN is?  What makes you think you can sell any MSDN-based license key?

Looking at the thread there's a reply to your post that was missed though.
I can vouch for this, my post was also deleted and my feelings were really hurt until I realized I missed the "local rules" by the OP....  Angry   Cheesy

Any chance a weight-based voting system would work for feedback?  
Maybe leave trust list the way it is but allow other lower accounts to submit feedback and have other community members vote up/down to give the feedback "weight"... a certain weight needs to be achieved to make it into the "score" ?

Still leaves a higher list of users that can influence a score more dramatically (those in the default trust list) but offers the ability for others to make their vote count and gives everyone a "hand" in the feedback system?

Just thinking off the top of my head, this might be an asinine idea.  Roll Eyes
1278  Other / Meta / Re: Leave the trust system as is but remove trust scores on: May 20, 2015, 06:16:00 PM
Maybe, just maybe only Higher ranked ones (Member+? Sr+?) should give trust feedback at all, to avoid too many accounts made or bought to "take down" somebody's trust.


That will be discriminatory against the honest  newbie users (person) bt maybe it will be a good idea, but it will decentralize more the trust system ... it is not a bad idea (at the end).

I agree it is discriminatory. However, a lot of voices ask for newbie jail and such.
Also, we all know how many lower rank users are created only for spam or scam.

And.. there are plenty of high rank users that can help out the honest newbie in such cases. There default trust members that actually do that currently.

It may not be the best way, but as you said it nicely: it will decentralize the trust system.

Its not decentralization that you want, its centralization with a group you are more comfortable with. I'm not comfortable with all high-ranked members being the default trust list. I can't say I'm 100% comfortable with the current trust list either, but I'm picking my poison. There are too many alts, high-ranked ones also, and it would probably create a nightmare for mods to manage trust abuse, which I think would run rampant in this environment.
1279  Other / Meta / Re: Leave the trust system as is but remove trust scores on: May 20, 2015, 05:04:39 PM
Just a random thought. Leave the trust system as it is, but remove the trust scores shown on the profile etc. To evaluate someones trustworthiness, users should open their trust page, review the feedback and evaluate the users trustworthiness for themselves.

So no more red warnings. What do you guys think? good idea/bad idea? will it stop "abuse" of the trust system? will people take the time to manually review trust before trading?

I proposed that a long while ago. I agree, people rely way too heavily on the green or red numbers, when they should really be reading feedback on a case by case basis.

What is the issue with showing scores? 

Reducing the amount of visibility a person with negative feedback has is not a good idea.

If someone is too lazy to look at the trust page currently, what makes you think they will do it if the scores go away? 
It is more likely they will just walk into scams more often, which I think will hurt Bitcoin & this forum.

I might be for a disclaimer under the red letters saying something like "verify all trust scores on a case-by-case basis" - and linking it to the users trust page.

In the end, we all have better things to worry about...  Grin

Surveillance planes spotted in the sky for days after West Baltimore rioting

As Benjamin Shayne settled into his back yard to listen to the Orioles game on the radio Saturday night, he noticed a small plane looping low and tight over West Baltimore — almost exactly above where rioting had erupted several days earlier, in the aftermath of the death of a black man, Freddie Gray, in police custody.

The plane appeared to be a small Cessna, but little else was clear. The sun had already set, making traditional visual surveillance difficult. So, perplexed, Shayne tweeted: “Anyone know who has been flying the light plane in circles above the city for the last few nights?”

That was 9:14 p.m. Seven minutes later came a startling reply. One of Shayne’s nearly 600 followers tweeted back a screen shot of the Cessna 182T’s exact flight path and also the registered owner of the plane: NG Research, based in Bristow, Va.

“The Internet,” Shayne, 39, told his wife, “is an amazing thing.”

What Shayne’s online rumination helped unveil was a previously secret, multi-day campaign of overhead surveillance by city and federal authorities during a period of historic political protest and unrest.

I have friends in Baltimore, and they had already seen an increase in police helicopters, but also a few large military planes, has been going on for about 3 weeks BEFORE the incident with Freddie Gray. Why, I don't know.....

There is also a large "blimp" that was put up by one of the military bases in the area that is supposedly used for radar. I'm not really buying that its only used for radar, but how would I ever find out any different?

Although they don't have cameras now, the blimps have potential to support infrared cameras. If cameras were used, the blimps would be able to detect and identify people, car models and license plates.
