The joke's on the users who included him: ~
I do not understand. Why is it bad to include igehhh in my trust list? I did not pay attention to his trust list, but I only looked at his trust feedback that he left for others. I haven't noticed any "inaccurate/inappropriate trust actions" from him lately. Am I wrong?

It is interesting that someone who registered on the forum less than a month ago has such a negative attitude toward senior members and the merit system. I'm not judging you, but I do not think you are being completely honest with us. You are a new member, so you may not be aware of the fact that we have an established and well-functioning merit system here. Why are you so angry about it? What are you trying to accomplish by posting this? I think that if you want to be respected, you should try to be respectful. If you want people to listen to your ideas, try being diplomatic. You may not agree with the merit system, but it is the way this forum works. We were all newbie members once, and many of us registered after the merit system was introduced. Therefore to claim that the merit system is "unfair" towards the newbies is a wrong conclusion. You are not being treated any differently than someone who has been here for a long time. We all have to earn our stripes, and I think you will find that most people are willing to help you along if you ask politely instead of disrespecting and insulting senior members from the very beginning. I have been on this forum for almost three years, and I have seen many new members come and go. The only ones who are still around are those who understand that if they want to be respected, they need to respect others.

It is just human nature to have a healthy curiosity about the things around us, and while this curiosity is often satisfied, sometimes it is not. That is just the way life works, and speculating on Satoshi Nakamoto isn't any different in that regard. It is true, there are a lot of threads like this. So why do you think such a sub-forum is needed? You see, there is no point in beating around the bush, Satoshi can prove who he is by signing an arbitrary message with his private key. But no one will be able to do it, and our conversation will be fruitless. Issues like this serve only to divide the community, and are not really relevant to development or issues of bitcoin at large. If you want to discuss Satoshi, just do so in general discussion. There are also some good threads you can check out if you want to read a bit more.

Also, I don't make more than 4/5 posts daily, so how can it count as spam!
The number of posts you make per day does not affect whether your content will be considered spam. You can make only one single post and it can be rated as spam, while someone can make 20 posts, and all of them can be constructive and on topic. It seems the posts are being deleted by an automated bot
No! All reported posts are reviewed by our moderators.

I vote for placement B or placement D. As I suggested before, this control is related to the user, so if we continue to follow the logic of the existing SMF interface, all controls and information related to the user should be in the left side of the interface. The right side is for posts and post-related controls.

I like it, this can be useful. Could you customize your patch to filter only discussions between two posters? Any idea how that can easily be implemented in the GUI? Maybe using a checkbox and a text link. Something like this: Users can select multiple members using the checkbox, and the filter is activated only after clicking on the link.

I think that this feature is a good idea, and it will be interesting to see this in action. My only suggestion is the placement of the checkbox-like widget. It is too close to the "Report" link. Would it be better to place it in the lower left corner, next to "Ignore"? That seems more logical to me, because it is supposed to do something opposite of what Ignore does.

Can it please be reinstate?
No, it cannot. Read and abide by the forum rules: 1. No zero or low value, pointless or uninteresting posts or threads. [1][e] ~

Poker Player, if you want to add a timestamp to your message, I suggest that you incorporate the block number and the nonce from the last mined block into the message. When you publish the signature/hash of the message, you also publish the block number and nonce that will be in the message. That way, you will have another provable way of confirming when the message was created.
I understand that would confirm that the message was signed at least when that block was mined or after, and not before, but it could have been created after. That is true. That's why I said that you should make the block nonce public along with the digital signature of the message. There is no way to know the nonce of future blocks. But I agree that it's not really necessary, unless you want to add a timestamp to the message. I was away yesterday but I was reading your response and Googled some articles about email security for different email services. I had a wrong idea that Google do PGP encryption but knowing they don't, just broke my trust. You are right most regular email system don't. Protonmail has it as an additional feature, which needs additional setting to enable it in your end. And if the receiver do not have the same setting then they will not be able to read your email. It become complicated when the email is sent to another service instead of proton to proton.
That's right. Most regular email providers use only transport-level encryption, or TLS (SSL) layer over the plaintext communication, which means that the message is protected from eavesdropping only during transit between individual SMTP relays, but not all the way between the sender and the recipient.

Hi Obari! Congrats! I think it was a good start, every journey starts from somewhere. Now is the right time as bitcoin prices are sliding gradually and many think a dip has come for bitcoin. Whether you want a casual investment or one that could potentially turn into a small fortune, this may be your chance to secure a good investment. It may not continue to appreciate as fast as it has been, but for now, it's the most secure and stable option around. Hope you make it big on crypto journey.

The regular email system also use PGP in the back to encrypt the message. From the font we can not see it though.
I do not want to go off-topic, but that is wrong. The majority of "regular" email systems do not use encryption in the backend and all messages are still stored in cleartext form on the servers. Trust me, I was a sysadmin for years.

Option 3: Use your PGP key! It's more secure than any of the options above. Here is how I will do it. ~
This is overcomplicated and unnecessary for the case described by Poker Player. He wants to make the message public after a certain event, so there is no need to encrypt the message. It is sufficient to sign or hash a message and publish its signature/hash in advance, so that anyone can verify, and you don't depend on one or two forum members to confirm the authenticity of your message. Poker Player, if you want to add a timestamp to your message, I suggest that you incorporate the block number and the nonce from the last mined block into the message. When you publish the signature/hash of the message, you also publish the block number and nonce that will be in the message. That way, you will have another provable way of confirming when the message was created.

Looks like he updated the bounty topic with some explanation regarding the bounty campaign issues and according to him, he also got scammed. It is a convenient excuse (maybe bounty hunters should check it in the project's TG group) but I wouldn't be surprised that altcoin project refused to pay the bounty when they saw the results. I am sure that bounty managers tell them bunch of crap about effectiveness of bounty campaign in order to sell it, and in the end when clients take a look at the horrendous quality of articles and videos and realize that they got scammed, they refuse to pay.
This is not the first time that this bounty manager has been accused of unethical conduct. It seems to me that he really does not care what projects he promotes or what members he chooses for his campaigns. No wonder he does not want to answer these accusations; as long as the business goes on, who really cares? These projects' owners aren't very bright either, seeing as how most of them are only interested in making a quick buck from the bounty campaigns and their project's ICO, and not in the quality of work that is being done. They do not care about the quality of their own product, let alone that of a bounty campaign and its participants; and they are certainly not concerned with how many people they burn along the way.

You do not need to report fraud, cheating or plagiarism, but if you suspect that someone has committed any of these, please report it, because in that way you will help to keep this site a safe place for everyone. However, there are many other ways to contribute positively to the forum besides reporting violations. The most effective way is through creating good posts in response to others' questions and statements .
This is how I think it works. All you do is be an active member of the forum and "contribute to the forum" as you call it. As for a good post, treat this place like your own community. So make posts that you think benefit others here in the community. It does not have to be something it really benefits us as long as people can learn from it or you are also learning from it at the same time or vice versa. After all, it is not helpful if your post doesn't add anything new to the discussion.

I was hoping to avoid using some image sharing site that will start to demand payment once I have invested significant effort. That happened to me with photobucket a few years back and I don't want a repeat of that, hence my attempt to use ProtonDrive.
ProtonDrive may be a good cloud storage provider, but it was never intended as image hosting. Although you can share your files publicly via a link, ProtonDrive will never provide you with a direct URL for the image to be able to post images on the forum. As already mentioned, Imgur and Imgbb are probably the two oldest and most popular services for free image hosting. They have a long history so there is no reason to fear that you might run into problems in the future. Even if you encounter some kind of restrictions during free use, you can simply change your IP address or use a VPN because no registration is required.

A politician's words or promises during a campaign are never to be trusted, because politicians are liars by profession, willing to say anything to help them win office or keep it. They will break promises and make new ones as if nothing has happened. We know that Bitcoin is a threat to the existence of the existing financial system, so they are doing everything they can to discredit it. This is not new, just simply follow the money. Governments and banks will never like it (except maybe when they control it), so they will do everything in their power to prevent it from becoming a mainstream currency. This means discrediting Bitcoin and spreading misinformation about it.
The only way for Bitcoin to survive is for people like us to keep pushing for its adoption and use, so it becomes mainstream, accepted by everyone and used as a medium of exchange.

The answer, of course, lies in your particular business and its needs. A businesses should look at the advantages and disadvantages of all payment methods before deciding which works best for them and should only consider accepting bitcoin as a payment option when they get sufficiently educated on the pros and cons, especially if they are new to the field and don't have much experience. In my opinion, if all these businesses want to embrace the future of currency and not get left behind while ensuring an increase in profits and higher revenues, they should start accepting bitcoin as a payment option. The sooner they start accepting it, the better.

I have a problem with images not posting. ~ The link I am using is this:
You have a problem with your image URL. I tried opening the URL in a new window and it does not work. It has nothing to do with the forum. Try using a different image hosting service. I also tried adding '.png' after the ProtonDrive link, but get the same result.
Obviously, you cannot create a valid image URL by appending the .jpg or .png extension to a random string of characters.
