perhaps we should start over?

Who gets to decide?
Is mc_lovin the OP still around?
If the OP is still around do you think he wants to start this all over again?

If I post to a section accurately I can unlock it? Yet others remain locked and bothersome for a period of time until they unlock? Am I understanding this correctly? As my forum status changes over time by this model all sections unlock? Or is it section by section as I begin to use them?

I could not find a better place to post this,

I spend alot of time in the altcoins subs and like to go back 10-20 pages to see if there is something I might have missed, starting even to go a little further, I find repeated and almost worthless post's covering the same topic's (not saying they are worthless to who posted them), in the new forum  could it be possible that when typing into the subject line while someone is creating a new topic that a feature like googles search prediction work in a drop down and have it bring up very similar subjects that are already posted to the forum? This could help to consolidate the same questions in the same thread and would even assist user's cause they would be able to see how their question or topic was resolved at an earlier date, it could even help with clutter when a new user might be discouraged from posting more of the same after they see that their question has somewhat been asked before.

If someone was designing new forum software from scratch, one of the things they should do is rethink categorization of posts.

Clearly, many users don't know or are not willing to post topics in the correct section of the forum. This can be caused by simple ignorance or malice. Either way, it greatly distracts from the usability of the forum and sucks up moderator time and attention.

Letting posters the category first and them cleaning up after them later is suboptimal, so why not reverse the process?

A user composes an new thread, but does not get to choose the category up front. When they are ready to submit their post, the forum chooses the category for them by having the poster interact with a finite state machine via a series of questions similar to the following:

Quote
1. This post is written in:
  • English
  • Espaņol
  • 中文

Quote
2. The primary topic of this post is:
  • The Bitcoin network, software, or currency
  • A different cryptocurrency
  • Something else

The FSM end state is the section where the thread is posted.

Optionally, the forum software could do simple text analysis of the post and thread title to find possible duplicate threads, and ask the user to affirm their thread is new and not a dup.

Lying during the submission process in order to deliberately miscategorize a thread is a bannable offense.

The forum tracks member status (brand new, newbie, full member, hero member, etc) on a per-section basis taking into account how many of their threads get moved to other sections. If a user maintains a sufficiently high accuracy rating they "unlock" that section and can post to it directly without going through the FSM.

This would be a lot of work to implement up front, but I suspect it would greatly reduce the ongoing moderation burden, especially because it removes most or all plausible deniability for trolls.

This is something I dislike about craigslist when I post ads there, although it is a good idea to keep things from being miscategorized often, could it be that this is a tool that could be imposed on new user's for a time period? and then reinstated for another period of time if Mods move a topic of a user that miscategorizes topics 2 or 3 times?

20k makes you the wilt chamberlain of tis forum Wink

I'm going for a 'slam Dank' (or is it dunk?).

Depends on if your into basketball or other recreation activity's.

Filming someone these days usually involves a well written release form, I guess you did not sign a release form?
It would seem they have used the video as a type of advertising promotional video and they did not pay you? They would have been better off giving you the miner straight across for the video then they would have an argument to the right to air the video, keep us updated here.

So today I sent you a pm and then jump to your thread to refresh myself of what your prices are and find you were banned, my luck I guess, let us know what it was for if they tell you.

Understanding the question to answer the question is this the answer to questions ?

But this thread is about question about above question , not answer to the above question with another question , is this the question you asked or another question ?

To answer the question above with a question has me questioning this question thread, Am I adding my questions to the questions correctly?

 A DAC by known terms is too much work to for such a project and to get it rolling, so I don't know about that yet, but,there is nothing stopping anyone from running a snapshot outside of the rules that Invictus has cultured, Invictus has the largest concentrated group of users surrounding its development's that support decentralized currency that I know of, and that is why a snapshot is interesting to me.

It is an awesome project for me and I hope to bring crypto to many new user's much like Doge did and none other has been able to master since.
Thank you Miso069 for your feedback, I appreciate it.

did confuse this thread for something else?

Have you heard the joke about the Chinese Gov repeatedly making money from trading BTC based on their own rumors?  Cheesy

Do you believe that the whole current BTC market cap is interesting so that a government decides to do such a thing?

I consider this is possible, but aren't they too stupid to do that?

the chinese government stupid? i don't think so. china wants to be the US of the 21st century. haven't you read about how china almost refers to itself as the center of the world?

Don't you find that stupid?

Wouldn't they rather manipulate their own currency?

Hi.

So how many time we have to post our entries?

I do not have set time line before I need the logo, but, I will add a deadline to OP within 24 hours of this post  Smiley

[Edit] Also deadline will be at least 5 days from now.
195  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Activecoin (ACT) In Community input period - Pre Announce thread- on: April 25, 2014, 06:12:33 PM
I am not fond of rare coins, distribution of coins is important and i do not want them to be difficult to obtain.

Premine is touchy, I was hoping to support decentralized community's by incorporating a PTS offering, but this is something I would like to further contemplate as I do not agree with the % amount and development of a snapshot is not a task I am up to, premine brings conflict just about everytime and I have to weigh pro's and con's based on input from miners and supporter's, developing rewards could be by donations

There will be a official Pre Ann in the announce sub at later date

Pre supporters will be heard and weight given for launch time

POS is touchy in my book also, structuring a economically feasible pattern of distribution that will not fail over time is a trick I do not know, decentralizing by POW alone allows anybody to start small and join the mining process, I will be better able to maintain something that is not POS but am not closed to the idea completely.

Proof of fit will never work  Cheesy I know several people who have no problem seeking adventure activity's and while justifying their unhealthy activity's, I do have a plan for a giveaway promotion that will require proof of fit though  Wink

Thanx for the input all! I hope this coin will be something familiar crypto user's can spread by word of mouth to family and friends that run, bike, ski, skydive, swim or compete in any way

P.S. Also updated the OP with an edit.
