Agreed... I haven't been able to watch any games live at all. But they do upload the full games to YouTube sometimes. The other thing that makes it subpar compared to NFL for me is the lack of name recognition... I don't know any of these dudes, at all. They need to bring in failed NFL coulda-beens to spice things up, even as a marketing gimmick. Such as Tim Tebow and Johnny Manziel, who is actually playing in the Canadian Football League (they probably pay better is why).

Sure, I don't mind the idea of making the forum "better" so long as it doesn't change the look and layout. Why?, you may ask. Because when people come here to read satoshi's old posts, I think they would prefer to read them in the same format in which they were written. It lends more credence to the idea that they were actually his posts. For me, this is where the true value of the forum lies.

If anything, I think it would be neat to be able to design a mobile version of Simple Machines Forum from scratch, from the ground up. It is true that most internet traffic is mobile these days, and it ain't so easy to read the forum from a mobile device.

Whats broken about it.

Oh, it looks like you are gearing up to apply for a sig campaign after all.


Very funny. Well times have changed. Seeing as how digaran was in a campaign for a while, maybe you can be too, though I wouldn't recommend you to any managers. Still, good luck.

Kind Regards

I suppose there's a case for that. But I wouldn't worry about it as he will never be on DT. I have a billion negative feedbacks and none of them mean anything.

Wat

I'm a Dogecoin Maxi (not really but) and even I have a hard time believing this. Sounds like a "sell the news" type event TBH; the news in this case being the rumor.

I don't get it... You have nothing to do with "Peeps Place", yet you went by that name for 10 years, and you're taking credit for the thread started by an account named "Peeps Place"? Could be I'm just missing something.


I see in Twitchy's feedback he says "I believe peeps actively requests payment from sites on his "#1 Ratings" list."... The link in the feedback points to a statement by DirectBet (which turned out to be one of the most honest sportsbooks crypto has ever seen) stating something a bit different: that you are getting paid for advertising sportsbooks rather than paid for ratings.

Regardless, I wouldn't worry about either feedback too much as they are just neutrals.

Here's the thing that most people don't realize: the forum doesn't need to do anything, except continue to exist.

Close to 15 years old now, the Bitcoin Forum is an SEO powerhouse that will continue to attract visitors and appear prominently in Google search rankings, forever.

So long as theymos continues paying the bills and keeping the lights on, the forum will remain the foremost repository for Bitcoin-related information; especially from a historical standpoint. Not to mention the plethora of luminaries and legends that have created accounts and posted here over the years.

I'll pay 10,000 SHITCOINs for a couple of pizzas.. maybe like 2 large ones so I have a lil left over for tomorrow.

I like weird fish toppings and stuff like that... anchovies, sardines, calamari rings, etc.

Let's get one thing straight first: you bought your account.

Second, I'm not for red tagging people who purchased accounts, but I'm not against it either. Opening a thread complaining about the situation is more likely to have the effect of gaining additional red tags than removing the one you currently have. No one is going to change their trust settings based on your complaint.

I know: you paid good money for this account and you hate to see it go to waste. I suggest to you instead to concentrate on ranking up your other accounts rather than restoring the reputation of this one.

OK I got the order wrong. He left and was then shouted down by haters. There's at least half a dozen anti-ordinals thread out there. The idea caused some people here to have real conniptions, meltdowns, and spastic crying fits.


Runes is pretty much Counterparty - a bitcoin-based system for creation & transfer of fungible tokens - but unlike Counterparty, all image & other descriptive data is stored on the BTC blockchain.

Yes really.


If you were right, the easier, more logical thing to do would have been to just disappear from the forum completely, without writing any sort of explanation for his disappearance.

The fact that he went to great lengths to explain his situation in his final thread - and the fact that he is/was regarded as one of the most honest, trustworthy members of the forum - leads me to believe he wasn't lying.

Compare his situation to DarkStar_'s, and note the difference in how they exited the forum.

Of course you're free to believe what you want, just as I'm free to point out that it is an absurd thing to believe.

I was actually addressing a dude that posted in your thread -- seems he bought his account. FWIW I don't think you lost control of your account, and I don't think it would be hired in any campaign or taken seriously if you were to launch your own product/service, so its probably not worth much. Feel free to prove me wrong though, that would be an interesting feat.

The same way it helps knowing who killed JFK, and where Jimmy Hoffa's body is.

Yes, it applies to Ordinals but not Runes AFAIK....

As a numeration system dependent on a protocol that exists independently of the Bitcoin Protocol, its as real as you want it to be. Some "rare sats" attached to inscriptions have sold for multiple thousands of dollars.

Some may say its arbitrary, and you will no doubt get the usual Ordinals Deniers coming into this thread saying none of it exists at all.

Personally I don't really care about the "rareness" of sats. There's already so much "value" being created on Bitcoin outside of its original protocol that collecting "rare sats" doesn't appeal to me. But if there's a market for them, and people find them valuable, you can't stop collectors/flippers from assigning value to them.

BTW Rodarmor refers to Casey Rodarmor, who came up with the whole Ordinals idea in the first place. He even announced it on this forum but was shouted down by haters, and then left.

This is a stupid thing to say and you should be embarrassed about it.


LOL. Its because he has a genuine passion for bitcoin. I know that idea is absurd to you, but people like him actually exist. For the first 4+ years of my Bitcointalk career I wasn't in a campaign either.


If memory serves, he first participated in some kind of charity signature campaign; if not charity then it was for something that didn't pay. After that, he was probably approached by a manager with a really good deal, and I don't blame him for taking them up on the offer.

Yes, it does! RedZone is always an option during the regular season.


For most games they have 2 options: those with an IP inside the US and those outside the US.


Its great! It was good even for the one Thursday night game on... what was it... Peacock? that had all the streaming issues. It was fine.


Yep, including playoffs and Super Bowl. With any luck it will still be around by mid August.

Yeah I'm surprised too. Any chance you can sign a message from one of your old bitcoin addresses?


I'm willing to forgive and forget, but the first thing you could do to help that along would be to admit that PrimeNumber7 is your alt account.

Unfortunately you are correct: any time there is a merit giveaway or contest that results in merits, of any sort, you will get such accounts trying to abuse it. This person probably has 3-5 accounts they are running simultaneously on the forum. A dead giveaway of a fake newbie are posts like this one:


Someone announcing they are "new"... 95% of the time means they are not. I see the post in question has already been deleted. Most likely the account belongs to whoever controls these accounts:

Yes, they did.


No, they can't. You have to be a US citizen to be an IRS agent as they are government employees. Its not a call center or something. They work in tandem with law enforcement / government officials around the globe, and the US doesn't pay them for that. Like I said earlier, extradition treaties are a two-way street: if Spain requested a known criminal living in the US to be extradited, the US would help them with that as well.


Its far more complicated than that.


Well they both went to Spain.
