I don't understand how people think this (plagiarism) is going to help them, unless they're trying to boost their post count to be able to run a scam. It's just annoying and makes people distrust you.

New update.

We are now looking for a Java developer. The level of knowledge in Java which is required should not be that high, as it will only require knowledge of Bukkit and random number generation along with commands and sign commands/manipulation. A bit of MySQL knowledge may also be required but this is unlikely. Please add me on Skype to negotiate, you will receive a percentage of rake from BTCVegas up to a cap once we launch. My Skype username is HardMyDisk.

The beta server is back online! Connect at btcvegas.fluctis.com:25809

All servers are temporary right now, we just switched to fix some errors. The texture pack is downloadable at https://www.dropbox.com/s/sf7vkd819aeweo6/BTCV.zip - we will make the download automatic ASAP.

Theymos will get around to your PMs eventually, he probably has a lot to go through daily. If you can't produce a signed BTC address message or PGP signed message, then you're probably not going to get your account back as nearly everything else can be hacked or manipulated.

I know you want to make (1-word) posts to make money from your signature ad, but the new forum software subforum is literally right in your face when you click on Meta.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=167.0

It was more to spark a discussion on when it was going to arrive, so far nothing has changed Sad

Around next year, I believe. Just use the search function next time, alright? It saves these kinds of threads from being made when they don't actually need to be made.

I wouldn't trust Teamviewer to be fully secure and allow me full control of my computer, especially in a situation where I'm basically giving access of my computer to another person. That's just me, though.

And, just like that, half of the bitcointalk community will die from Bitcointalk withdrawal symptoms. I wonder how we will all cope. Wink

Also, another excuse for me to put this down: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ncgiB_YUZVQ

Anyway, thanks for notifying us Smiley

You can't come in here asking for a $350 loan with less than 10 posts, especially without collateral, dude. Sorry.

1871  Other / Meta / Re: TIL Activity does not work on precisely 2 week intervals + interval timings on: April 24, 2014, 05:33:06 PM
Oh no, we're losing out on so much activity Roll Eyes Nobody really cares or should care about activity, to be honest. UNIX timestamps are accurate in all time-zones and they're just an easy-to-implement digit, so it's easy to see why they're used.
1872  Other / Meta / Re: May I know the criteria of being a Moderator ? on: April 24, 2014, 05:03:15 PM
Activity as in the activity points we all have or based on how active you are on the forum (time logged in and dealing with reports etc)?

I'm pretty sure it's something like that - it'd make sense. Again, I'm pretty sure the algorithm isn't posted in public - else mprep might be able to abuse it and get some quick cash jokes <3. On-topic though, yeah, it's probably a mixture of time & reports & other things if I was to make a guess.

Are mods paid or they are volunteer ?

*BitcoinDream had his dreams shattered as he realised that by pestering theymos and becoming a moderator he would not be able to get free bitcoins*
I think one of the criterias to become a moderator was to not ask how to become one. Cheesy Not really sure, but I think I read it somewhere.
That's true, asking for moderator on any forum usually will decrease your actual chance of becoming one as it just annoys people in general. Not that the OP is necessarily asking for mod.
1874  Other / Meta / Re: May I know the criteria of being a Moderator ? on: April 24, 2014, 04:45:18 PM
Yeah, they get paid, but you're supposed to think of it as being a volunteer.

I'm surprised that no one noticed this before now. Almost all of the moderators have addresses in their Bitcoin Address profile fields, and these addresses receive obvious, regular sendmany payments from addresses owned by me or the forum...

Moderators are not employees. They are not required to "behave professionally," and they don't need to help you with anything. The payments are a form of thanks for past actions, and they do not establish any future obligations for the forum or moderators.

John K. got $1,149. How do you sign up to be a mod!

Report many posts accurately, and write good posts. Mods are added infrequently, and only when needed. Also, as you can see, few mods make anywhere near that much.

It's proportionally split on activity or some secret algorithm which theymos made, I believe. To get as much as John K. got there you'd probably have to be really active & be at least a global mod.

What did he give you 1 btc for?

Knowing Bitcointalk he probably made a bet and now DiamondCardz is after some more money Tongue

You gave me 1 BTC as a newbie, I actually had quite a lot of respect for you up until you made that massive racist wall of text. You deserved that ban for being racist scum, to be honest.

If you actually believe that Phinnaeus Gage is a real racist then you're as stupid and illiterate as otrkid and.... holy crap I've even forgotten his name, that's how little I care about this lmao, hilariousandco? I think that was it, anyway, nice to see you back, I honestly think it would've been because of spam because I troll people and I only occasionally get replies deleted.

Nah, it was some giant image or something. I don't care if someone is trolling or not, something like that just isn't funny.

To be clear, I definitely was not trolling when I started that thread in question about my niece, for that's exactly how I felt/feel about that episode, but in no way am I racist, going as far as kicking ass if I ever encounter some person berating another man or woman due to their race. The person I referenced in said thread is considered to be sub-human and should have his motherfuckin' brains blown out. <---not trolling!

I can understand that but find a different word to use. The word you did use is just so damn controversial and offensive.

Who the hell sends a pyramid scheme link to their friend so they can lose their money? I was enticed when the beta tester thread said "social bitcoin site" but now we know that it's just another ridiculous pyramid scheme/chain game.
1879  Other / Meta / Re: May I know the criteria of being a Moderator ? on: April 23, 2014, 06:06:07 AM
I'd imagine some of the staff also have a place to put in their own input and recommendations on who should become a moderator.
Not really, except for local mods where he doesn't know the language. Like all things theymos, he acts on his own. So far, that's turned out okay, so I don't really see it as a bad thing.

Hmm, you are right, it has mostly turned out okay (except a couple). Surprising that there is no mod input on the matter, though, I would've thought that there would be.

To bring balance to bitcointalk.org?

1 year old thread but I just feel like this applies here:



He left the forums pretty quick Wink
