If someone initially thinks their post quality is lower, there is nothing wrong with deleting old posts. Most people make some mistakes in their newbie days. If someone wants to fix the mistakes they made, they are welcome. But there might be some other reasons that Yahoo already mentioned. Even though someone deleted their old posts, those are already archived.

About signature campaigns, I don't think this could be because someone wants to decrease their post count. I don't think post count influences getting hired in a campaign. Most campaign managers look at earned merits and posting habits in the last 120 days.

আসলে এই বিষয়টি নিয়ে আমি এখানে আলোচনা করতে চাই যে আমাদের দেশে এখন অনেকেই অন্ধভাবে এই সব এ্যাপ গুলোতে বিশ্বাস রাখছে এবং তারা প্রচুর অর্থ সেখানে জমা করছে। ফলে যে কোন সময় তারা তাদের অর্থ হারিয়ে ফেলতে পারে। যদি এই কাজটি না করে তারা যদি বিটকয়েনে বিনিয়োগ করত তাদের অর্থ নিরাপদ থাকত এবং তারা দীর্ঘ মেয়াদে বেশি পরিমান অর্থ প্রফিট করার সুযোগ পেত। এই বিষয়ে যদি আপনাদের তোন অভিজ্ঞতা থাকে তাহলে আসুন আলোচনা করি। অত্যন্ত যারা এখানো এই ধরনের ফাঁদে পা দেয়নি তারা রেহায় পেতে পারে।   
আমার কাছে যারা এসব সাইট বা এপ নিয়ে রেফার করতে আসে। আল্লাহর ওয়াস্তে ওয়াজ শুরু করে দেই কতোক্ষন পর আর আমার সামনে আর কেউ থাকে না। মানুষ কি ডেসটিনির কথা ভুলে গেছে? মানুষ কি কিছুদিন আগের এস পি সি এর কথা ভুলে গেছে যেটার ব্রৗান্ড এম্বাসেডর ছিলেন মাশরাফি বিন মর্তুজা? মানুষ কি রিং আইডির কথা ভুলে গেছে? মানুষ কি জিকা বাজারের কথা ভুলে গেছে? মানুষ কি আরো নাম না জানা হাজারো স্ক্যামারদের কথা ভুলে গেছে? এই এমটিএফই ট্রেডিং সাইটের মোড়কে নতুন এক এমএলএম বিজনেস। যা হঠাৎ করেই একদিন সকলের টাকা নিয়ে ভেগে যাবে। মানুষ যতোদিন নিজেদের কে সংযত করতে পারবে না, ততোদিন এরা লস করতে থাকবে। দুনিয়া জুড়ে মানুষকে আমি এসব বলে বেড়াই, আর আমার ঘরেই আমার ছোট ভাই এসবে ইনভেষ্ট করে পুং মারা খেয়ে বসে আছে।
1623  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: My easy way to teach your kids bitcoin. on: July 26, 2023, 09:32:11 AM
What will be the proper age to learn about Bitcoin then? We have lots of discussions here already. For example, part of people only see Bitcoin as money. Most of the kids at 5-7 knows already what money are, how to use them, where to get them and etc. Though, I doubt that they will understand difference if I would pay in fiat or in BTC. It is easy to teach them about fiat currencies, if we use travelling as an example (different country, different currency). But right now I cant figure out a plan or situation, when and how I can give example why I am paying or using Bitcoin instead of fiat.
I feel like kids below 12 are not the proper age to learn Bitcoin. You might still introduce Bitcoin to them. But, you don't have to teach them Bitcoin completely since it's complicated, and kids at 7-8 won't be able to understand. This is not a mandatory thing to teach them. You can do it later once they grow up and understand things better than now.

You better teach your kids about the importance of having privacy now. Why personal things always should remain personal. Why should they care about their personal things? Why security is essential. Then you can teach them that Bitcoin will help them control their money, and it will remain private.

Pakistan's team has made a strong comeback in this World Test Championship cycle. Now, this team looks to be well-balanced and in good form and deadly for any opponent.
Congratulations to Abdullah Shafique for his impressive ton, yet unbeaten at 137 runs before the lunch break. Hope, he'll continue it.
So far, Pakistan's batters have performed well, but it is important for them to accelerate scoring rate. With 2 days remaining in the match, it would be good for Pakistan to have a lead of at least 250 runs.
Pakistan already got a lead of 231 runs while I was writing. I think Pakistan should declare their innings after they get 300 runs lead, no matter if they can get it in the 3rd session. Abdullah Shafique is on his way to scoring a double-century. He is batting at 190* at this moment. Since the weather is unstable this week, we don't know when rain can interrupt the game.

Taking a lead of 300 runs will be enough for Pakistan to declare the innings and call Sri Lanka to bat again. Because if Pakistan consumes too much time, and then rain washout a whole day, there will be a chance to draw the game. I believe Pakistan doesn't want that.

I would be okay even if the OP would be active inside his own thread. So far, it seems that he only started the topic to create some drama and abandoned it.
Maybe OP just wanted to see the community's reaction to it. He might add further words to back his claims if he gets any support. Since almost nobody supported it, he decided not to add anything.

Quote
Furthermore, as far as I see, absolutely nobody supported OP's ideas. What does this mean for him? That all which wrote here are hand in hand with merit sources?
Many members can support him (Not about the sockpuppet claim) about not meriting new accounts. But I don't think people will say anything here since it will show their bad face and might get ignored by others. Most people who think like OP is not aware of Meta board well. I believe most of them are under the Full Member rank. I feel like the Full member rank is not an expert, not a newbie type of rank. There was a time when I thought newbies do not get merits because of their rank. This is true, and I explained here why it's kind of true. At the same time, there is no point in raising the finger toward merit sources.

As far as I can see, setting your fees below 5 satoshis per vbyte has not been going through in the last couple of months.. at least not so far.  Sometimes, mistakes are made, and I had some transactions that I set at 4 or 5 satoshis per vbyte a few months ago, and then ones that I sent only a month or so ago, I set somewhere between 10 and 15 satoshis per vbyte, and some of those took some time to go through too.. I believe I had a couple of transactions at around 12 satoshis per vbyte that took a couple of weeks, and for a while I was starting to get worried that I was being too greedy when I had set them up that way, and I should have just made the fees higher at the time that I had set them.. .. but they did end up going through.
I am wondering what wallet you are using. Why didn't you increase the fee to speed up your transaction if you have RBF enabled? On 20th July, I made some transactions with 7 satoshis per vbyte, which was confirmed in a couple of minutes.
If your RBF feature is disabled, you can consider enabling it to avoid situations like this in the future.

BTW, even if you set 5 satoshis per vbyte, it should have been confirmed so far. 4.1 sat/vbyte was fair on 19th July to confirm a transaction.

Bump: 4.1 sat/vbyte should be enough for a fairly quick confirmation now. Just make sure to enable RBF, in case fees go up again and you can't wait.

The second Test between Sri Lanka and Pakistan is likely to be suspended due to rain on the second day. Apart from only 10 overs of the first session, the remaining three sessions did not start today due to rain. If there is no possibility of playing on the third day due to rain, then like the above two Tests, the second Test between Sri Lanka and Pakistan is also likely to be a draw.
It's officially called off already. So, we can say that it was a day of rain. The entire week was played by the rain worldwide Grin.
So, the title holder should be the Rain. Day 2 has ended, and Pakistan is ahead with only 12 runs. If the weather continues to be like same as today, we might see another draw test.

Of course, Pakistan is a favorite in this game. But unfortunately, nobody can control the weather except for the Almighty. We have to wait for day three to see if the weather improves to see some cricket.
1631  Other / Meta / Re: Merit source and top merit earners on: July 25, 2023, 12:10:15 PM

I am aware of these tools. A post does not have to be long to be written by AI. Some users use AI for every post they write. For example, check this user. He is using AI to write short responses as well. It's not about detecting AI posts only. These days people do copy-paste in some creative way. Let's say someone finds a good article in Chinese, translates it to English and then posts it. Sometimes new users do not know about the rules. Sometimes they do it even knowing the rules. Someone can't check every post they are meriting if it was AI-generated or is a copy-paste, so If someone says that this does not look good, I don't want to spend my time checking it. You have nothing to say. Meriting posts is everyone's personal thing. You have to convince them to merit your post. Now the question is how can I convince them? Well, you don't have to ask them. You have to spend time on the forum, engage with everyone, and show effort. That's what I was talking about in my previous post.

I had to spend five months to earn my first ten merits. I earned another 100 merits in the next 45 days. I have earned another 150 merits in the next 90 days.
Yeap, it was really hard at the beginning. I now looked at the history and see that it took 17 days to get my first merit. Next was three months after the first one. And I thought I will never get not only legendary rank but was not sure if I ever get a member rank with 10 merits. And it took 6 months to become a member. And I knew very few about sources at that time...
I guess not only you and me, but every user had to spend time to earn merits at the beginning. There might be some extraordinary people like PowerGlove, n0nce and some others who are skilled in technology and can help members with their skills. It's not hard for them to earn a good number of merits in a single day. But when it comes to an average Joe, you must prove yourself, buddy.
1632  Other / Meta / Re: Merit source and top merit earners on: July 25, 2023, 10:45:42 AM
I would say the op is looking for a certain form of applause.

The only applause he's going to get is from the same group of people who thinks that highranks are being selfish with merits; and they'll all not-receive merits happily altogether because complaining ain't going to do crap.

I am not a high-rank member. But I have enough merits for the next rank. I participate in my local language thread, and I want to share what I feel when I am there. I am a full member, and even a Full member rank is a high-rank account in a small thread where many newbie accounts are chilling. I used to give merits to good posts, whether a newbie account or a legendary one. But since the ChatGPT craze started, you never know if the content is original. So, before I merit a post from a newbie rank account, I wait and want to see his motive. If I see a couple of good posts from the same person that seems original, I can consider myself dumping a single merit. For a new person, you must somewhat prove yourself by spending time and showing effort. I believe most people think this way.

If you are a new member and want to get merit for your first good posts, that will not happen. You have to spend time and be familiar with the forum and engage with them. If people can recognize you by seeing your name and you write good content, you will start getting merits. I had to spend five months to earn my first ten merits. I earned another 100 merits in the next 45 days. I have earned another 150 merits in the next 90 days. My post quality dropped for the last 90 days because I joined the signature campaign and focused on the post count. Most recognized legendary members earn more than 50 merits each 30 days, even if they don't write extraordinary things. Because they are well known and recognized by the community, and they are unlikely to copy-paste and use AI to write.

In comparison, a newbie did not prove himself yet. He might copy-paste, or he might use AI to write contests. He may get banned for violating forum rules. Most banned accounts are newbies because they are unfamiliar with the forum and know less about the forum rules. No one wants to merit someone who might get banned. So, if you are a newbie and think the community ignores you, it's not like that. People keep watching your posts, which will be evaluated at some point. Spend your time and show some effort that you are here to stay and that you write good content.

Most Importantly - "Learn Bitcoin"

I am sorry I am talking about this.
This is a racist thing to talk about.

I am speaking about these skin whitening cream companies.
I see some ads where they guarantee that skin will start getting white in 30 days.

Why don't they take the challenge in Africa?

Don't get me wrong. Black people are cool and beautiful. They don't need skin whitening.
But I am asking why those companies never work in Africa if they are legit.  
Those are scam businesses. You are selling an item that does nothing.
1635  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: My easy way to teach your kids bitcoin. on: July 25, 2023, 09:30:30 AM
Indeed, teaching kids bitcoin is always the worst idea I've ever seen. Why many parents can force their children to learn unnecessary things at their age? After all, bitcoin is just money, it is not a sublime knowledge or a necessity that anyone should have from an early age. Why not give them a happy childhood and teach them how to behave with people, how to be a better person than just focusing on bitcoin, bitcoin? What effect will that have?
People are forcing their kids to learn many unnecessary things nowadays. They see online that some extraordinary kids can solve math problems at four or five. Some other kid invented something at age eight. Now, people want their kids also should do something extraordinary. What they don't understand is everyone cannot be Einstien. Kids should enjoy their time, and they will learn many things by themself.

It's true sometimes you have to teach them. Do what you like, and your kids will follow you. If parents care about privacy, their kids will learn from their parents. The kid will ask you eventually, "Dad, what is it?". No one should force their kids to learn something that is not mandatory.
1636  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin whale 'awakens' after 10 years. on: July 25, 2023, 09:24:24 AM
Currently, the intentions of the owner cannot be determined. Data from Cointelegraph shows that every previous awakening of a 'whale' has resulted in significant fluctuations in the Bitcoin market. The event has garnered attention from the cryptocurrency community due to the potential impact of the origin of these coins on early-stage participants.
We don't know the intentions of a random anonymous Bitcoin whale. The halving event is coming next year. He is probably preparing for the halving event and might cash some profit afterward. Or was it just a general movement, like moving from an old wallet to a new one? Both are possible. What we are doing is just speculation based on our opinion.

We don't know what is going to happen. If someone is a day trader, it is important news for them to track those news and market movement. If someone is a long-term holder, this is a regular thing for them. Such a thing will happen every week, and holders have nothing to do with it.

I think a lot of user decided to playing dice from the faucet on Freebitco.in, and not just us, LOL.

Faucethub is also where I collect satoshi and doge. What I regret is, I used to make a website for a doge faucet, and there is still a balance of around 1000 doge, I haven't withdrawn and it turns out that faucethub has closed. On faucethub, I also often gamble faucet I get.
I guess many people tried to open a faucet business back then. I was playing with website scripts back then. I bought some domain and hosting to try these nulled scripts. I remember I had a few successful websites. I had a forum community. I had an exchange, I had a PTC website. I had an ad network. There was a web hosting website named Wapka.mobi back then.  

FYI, Faucethub is not closed yet. It was rebranded. The new domain is faucetpay.io. I am not sure if you will be able to log in with your old credentials. Still, it is worth trying since you had a balance there.

Never mind.

It's obvious that OP is frustrated with the merit sources because his main account didn't get attention from merit sources where he can get some merits. @OP, I believe you have an account that did not get the attention of merit sources, and maybe you have written many posts that deserve merits. FYI, a few merit sources review users' posts based on their application, and if their posts are worth merit, they are getting merits. Why don't you submit your good posts to them for review instead of complaining about shit?

Hello, I'm setting up an automated weekly DCA. Can some of the knowledgeable gentlemen here suggest the day of week with statistically lowest prices?

A comprehensive study analyzed 2 years'' worth of Bitcoin buying and selling data. The findings were pretty surprising. The research took a look at the average weekly market cycle to find the best day of the week to buy, The researchers found that the average lowest price for Bitcoin was at 6 am UTC time on Fridays. This means that this is on average..

I don't know how reliable this is. But I also heard that Mondays and Tuesdays are good for buying Bitcoin. You shouldn't take any of it as financial advice from me since I am a noob compared to most of you guys.

I don't think England wants to lose the last match to lose the series while they can share the trophy.
I guess you don't understand how the Ashes works. Trophies cannot be shared in this tournament. If the series ends as a draw thanks to Eng winning the final test, the previous winners will retain the trophy which is Australia in this case.

If Australia wins the final test, they will retain the trophy. The result is the same either way which is why it's a dead-rubber match.

True. I didn't know how Ashes worked. But, indeed, the fact won't change. If you look at the history after a couple of years, If England wins the 5th match, The Ashes overall result will show as drawn. You can check the all ashes series list here: https://www.espncricinfo.com/records/trophy/team-series-results/the-ashes-1

No matter who holds the trophy, the 5th match is still important for England. As far as I know, both country care about Ashes too much as it's a very important series between them. So, I don't agree that the last match is completely dead-rubber match. If you are from England or Australia, you should agree with me.
