okay. let me clarify this for you. if you would have looked closely at the screenshots i gave, he was impersonating another member @alex2012
My bad. Big ass photo and did not scroll through all of it. Yup...looks like a scumbag !

The problem is bigger that that... Let's assume that mods pick the cream of the crop shitcoins and giveaways with those coins are fair game. That means somehow they are acknowledging that coin. They are proposing it, trust it, even advertise it. Nobody wants to do that... especially theymos. Seems to be the same case as ICO adversiting on the forum... a no go! Which coin are you confortable to recomend? Bitcoin! Think a bit about this before having any more doubts

hmmm ... so you say he is a scammer because did not want to send first ? Just agree to use escrow or exchange with higher rank users. I would not send first either trading with you... no offence

I want know in which wallet I can collect my payment
This forum does not pay users! If you are talking about the Yobit forum that pays per post check yobit website for more info. If I'm wrong and it's about some bounty campaign ask campaign manager for the details. If none of the above are correct than do what sheenshane said and read those threads.

For the record I also think altcoin giveaways should remain where they are: somewhere else ! Giveaways lead to word of the mouth spreading (free marketing) leading to gullible people buying the coin whenever it can be bought leading to financial losses.
As long as you invest you should also take the risks involved and there are plenty, that's for sure. Just wanted to emphasize there is a difference between ICO and giveaway, one is stealing the other is advertising for the stealing platform ) That is exactly what it is not supposed to do. It's not a new bounty idea to help the newest "revolutionary, world-changing ICO". The topic of discussion is whether or not to allow giveaways for "established" altcoins.
My point was it would not make sense for new projects to offer giveaways in other "established crypto". It would make sense only for services. And why change things around here just for their sake ? Scams are not moderated but at least spam is. And these giveaways tend to create lots of it. Not if you compare money you could earn from other job rather than search and join airdrop, which usually require some kind of verification that takes some time.
I know... The last airdrop I joined made me furious as f**k. Make an account here, share this link on fb, share this on twitter, write here, add your details there... Never felt so angry and embarrassed for a few bucks (if I'm lucky). Not joining another anytime soon...

And what and who exactly does this help? The coin spammers to steal more money from people?
ICO's steal money. Giveaways offers worthless and potentially still worthless coins. Don't know about you but never felt poorer after receiving an airdrop. But that's just me I guess

So... This whole giveaway idea should usually help new coins/tokens. Let's assume I develop a new coin (a.k.a clone some other coin and change parameters: total supply, block time and ticker) I just created [CHL]Coin and now would like to make a giveaway or airdrop. Logic would dictate that I would be giving out CHL coin. That is my product. Not ETH, LTC etc. Since it is a new coin it definitely is not on any exchanges (even if roadmap says "in progress to list"). Anyone who does a giveaway wants to promote, make potential users familiar, have some use it and have some hodl it. The idea to allow just a few alts will help only services or layer 2 business ideas. Exchanges, casinos, mixers etc. Not really fair to the coin cloning devs The point is: if I make cookies I will host a contest and winner gets cookies, not croissants. Still not sure what got into you guys ... if you want to diversify your portfolios do some fb bounties! It's honest work As I said before: as long as there are no wallet address posts anyone can go crazy with giveaways. Want to see ETH in games and rounds ? Go to vitaliktalk.org (domain available btw) !

bitcointalk.org - read, learn, interact, do business etc cryptotalk.org - spam and get few satoshi per month for posting shit
Please do not mix them up again !

Not a really bad idea. Are there any features like recursive payments? Every month on the 15th a certain amount is sent to the employee's wallet? Where would I buy the BTC from? You? What commissions do you charge? Is it a monthly subscription plan or transaction fee? Do you send invoices for the BTC purchase?
Gl with this.

Don't fix if it ain't broken ! One could make an altcoin giveaway thread without getting banned: - Announce it here and ask users to post username on telegram, website ,etc
- Ask users to send PM for participation
- Use the Private giveaway feature (I guess it should work for altcoins too, not sure tho)
Don't think there is any need for more features or rule bending for this. As long as there is no "Post username and address in this thread" I doubt anyone would have a problem with the thread, regardless how shitty the shitcoin is. So what if we are talking about ETH, LTC, DODGE, XRP, BCH or some new fresh out of the oven, premined, closed source, inflationary, AI developed shitcoin ? Do you miss that much "[USERNAME] [SHT COIN ADDRESS]...." kind of post ? I understand some got banned because of a giveaway, but where are you going with this ? Make mods pick between coins ... why ?? Didn't see anyone complain before this 7 day ban that got cut short.

Welcome to the problem of political science. Figuring out a system that can't be abused, yet is actually useful...
Wherever there are rewards, there also needs to be anti-abuse mechanisms put in place (nothing is perfect, but at least make it hard enough). For example: - need 1000 good reports for X 0 reward (badge, copper etc) min 20% of the reported posts need to belong to Full Member and above. I doubt they would risk high ranked accounts to get a badge or a $28 "chopper" membership ) - need 2500 good reports for X 1 reward min 15% of the reported posts need to belong to Full Member and above ... And so on and so forth... Clearly not perfect (or polished enough) but might be a nice sketch to build on a system to fight this " political science problem" Build it and they will report )

You would not want to compromise high-rank accounts' post histories (though a lot of the current users should be reported)
+1 for honesty On the other hand, the aim is to mass-create Newbie accounts to create posts to report...
Really ? Was not aware it's a thing... But on the other hand I guess abusers gonna abuse, no matter how weird it may seem Regardless, this proposal was more for the sake of increased reporting than any supplanted use for Copper Membership...
I get what you're saying but pretty hard to "invent" awards for increased reporting. BTC, badges, merit, copper ... I guess there is no real need to insentience this. I report because I don't want to read the same bull shit twice by mistake )) it hurts my eyes and brain. Then I report ) But that is a personal opinion. Sry if I strayed off-topic ...

It seems Linus (Linus tech tips) is getting involved and will soon host a server for F@H in his studio/house https://youtu.be/KU4qOebhkfsNot sure what actual breakthroughs these guys have helped achieve until now but will start donating my pc power too

Here is something that would be interesting: giving copper membership in return for x amount of good reports.
How many are $28 worth of good reports? From what I've seen copper is bought for 3 reasons (they can be 2 out of 3 or all the below): - You actually need it (announce smth, etc)
- To help the forum
- To show off
In none of these cases is it worth to wait couple of months to report thousands of posts for it. The difference between this and a monetary reward is that there is no real use for abusing copper membership
How do you abuse a monetary reward ? You expect to be paid for reports ? You trippin' dawg ! And then contradict yourself saying it's not worth it. And then contradict yourself again proposing this.

I had a similar shock a few days ago. Have a project website on a VPS and added a GIF as a logo. It's a dumb gif Have been tinkering with that website for a while now. One day talking to a friend on whatsapp on my phone, I wanted to send a gif and the same gif I added on my site was in the first 3 recommended ones. I froze! The gif I'm talking about is the Peanut Butter Jelly Time Banana. Not that mainstream I assume. Also don't have facebook on my phone. Privacy is a wonderful concept but seems everyone is trying to tear it's walls down and no GDPR will stop that.

The link pops as bad (wow a new users posting a malware link)
Worked for me ... On the other hand not the first one to get this alert: https://forums.malwarebytes.com/topic/241011-pasteboardco-17658107101/Not sure if malwarebytes hates that website or if I am missing something, tho they seem legit. Just a file uploading and sharing service. Without image download options from what I saw. You'll see the photo when the user ranks up

It looks like someone has decided to play Linux Lite 4.8 LTS distro, and make Windows 12, so we have a Linux OS that looks like W10
Looks cool but would not trust new diatros. As they are new, not community tested and reviewed, proned to errora and other issues. Would recomend a mature version like Ubuntu or smth Not sure they just changed gnome

There were lots of bugs and broken updates in the last fee months. At some point the search option did not work because windows could not connect to Microsoft servers. Was not able to find files IN MY PC! Makes you wonder Been saing I would switch to Linux for a while now but did not get around to do it yet. But starts to seem a better option by each day

@Lakshman15 this is the kind of forum where you come to learn, read, exchange opinions etc. For a new members how many posts allowed per day.
For start earnings what I need, how many days it take. How to connect my ID to yobit exchange.
If you're here to get some satoshi for each post, wrong forum bud. This is Satoshi's forum, not Yobit forum! But don't get discouraged! Look around, have a read what other people have to say about yobit and mostly that investbox crap and then you can say you have a informed opinion. Hope to see you around...
