19362  Other / Meta / Re: Does anyone here make a living off the forums? on: April 18, 2019, 03:11:19 PM
It is why the income from forum (from signature, bounty managements, signature or graphic designs, escrow services, etc.) should be considered as supplementary income source, even the income source is bigger than your income from main job. If you can earn more income from the forum than your main job, it is good, and you should keep doing your good works in the forum to maintain your jobs here with good supplementary income, but simultaneously you should stick with you main job as your second plan when something serious happen in the forum.
If I'd be in the luxurious position of earning much more from a forum than in my main job, I would use it to plan an early retirement. If you live in a country where $2 per day is the standard, and you make 10 times more online, you'll make more in a few years than you would have made in your real job in a lifetime.

You can easily make upto $1000 or even more just writing articles for 1 campaign so imagine ones taking part in just 10 campaigns and writing 5 articles per campaign ($50,000++).
From what I've seen when I managed a bounty campaign, 90% of the "articles" are plagiarism. And apparently they're not used to being rejected, because when I rejected them, they quickly switched to homograph attacks and using text spinners (this was a pain to bust hundreds of those abusers, and that's probably why most bounty managers don't care). I don't think it's still possible to earn serious money as a bounty spammer.

I like the suggestion, and o_e_l_e_o already wrote down all the corrections I had in mind. Some bigger warnings about the implications might help avoid red trusted users ending up on DT2.

I want to add this, as it often confuses people:
I encourage anyone to create their own Trust list. Don't confuse your Trust list with Feedback though:
  • Feedback: people you trust (or don't trust: red)
  • Trust list: people who's judgement on others you trust (or don't trust: ~)

I would also like to see a notification to all users (just like the April Fool's day joke) to remind them to create a custom trust list. If this is too much for Newbies, it could be shown only to Member+ Ranks.

This is new: a Newbie with an escort-site in his profile (archived).
Please nuke mannatarora for plagiarism. I've checked a few more profiles, and already found several Newbies without posts, but with a website in their profile. I assume they use Bitcointalk for free backlinks.

Copy:
The Lightning Network is currently under development. It will become a decentralized network that enables the instant off-chain transfer of the ownership of bitcoin, without the need of a trusted third party.

The system utilizes bidirectional payment channels that consist of multi-signature addresses.

One on-chain transaction is needed to open a channel, and another on-chain transaction can close the channel.

Once a channel is open, the value can be transferred instantly between counterparties, who are exchanging real bitcoin transactions but without broadcasting them to the bitcoin network.

New transactions will replace previous transactions and the counterparties will store everything locally as long as the channel stays open.

I'm sorry to tell you, but there's no way to get your Bitcoins back after they're gone. There's also nobody to file a claim to, you're using a Darknet mixer. I don't think they have an office address you can visit.

I didn't know you can keep funds on Bitblender for months, why would anyone do that, instead of withdrawing funds to your own wallet?

Veleor still has only 9 inclusions. I'm starting to think "DefaultTrust" is counted too. If that is correct, I have to adjust the Rank up pipeline, even though I can't know who includes DefaultTrust.
I'm assuming the above is correct, and in the next update I'll list all accounts with 9+ inclusions as qualified for DT1.

I'm only now realized I misinterpreted theymos' requirements: I excluded users <Member from voting, but I don't think that's correct. I'll fix that later.

1. It’s consist of 0.0001 BTC x 90000 transactions = ~9 BTC. Bitcoin’s dust in fact.
Would you mind sharing your Bitcoin address here? I'm curious Cheesy

Quote
I’m ready to pay for this job
Challenge accepted Cheesy Let me start with some questions:
Have you read Fees are low, use this opportunity to Consolidate your small inputs! yet? Which version of Bitcoin Core are you using? Are you using coin control (explained in the topic linked above)? Did you make a backup of your wallet.dat yet?

According to https://coinb.in/#fees , 100 legacy inputs gives a 15 kB transaction. Since you've had the coins for a very long time, I assume you're not in a hurry, so you can save a lot on fees by setting low fees (1 sat/byte) and probably waiting a few days up to a week for confirmation.
With coin control, it's going to be a lot of work, but puts you in the driver seat.

Right, I'm trying to consolidate a lot of small input, but then bitcoin core writes error "transaction too large". After that, I tried to send a small amount like 0.01 BTC with priority fee and it still writes not in memory pool.
Coin control should help Smiley

If you're holding 9 Bitcoin from 2015, you also hold many different Forkcoins. LoyceV's Bitcoin Fork claiming guide (and service) is largely outdated, but still a good place to start reading.

Thanks Smiley I've just moved it back to Beginners & Help, it's been in Meta for a while.

I often bump the thread, and it has much more views than for instance this pinned thread, so I don't think pinning is necessary.
19373  Other / Meta / Re: Is it allowed to publish Trust feedback publicly? on: April 17, 2019, 02:39:39 PM
I think its totally valid to make the trust feedbacks public, as it serves a purpose of letting all the people know who is trusted and who is not.
Although I agree, I don't think any "guest" user will use this to see trust feedback.

Quote
Basically theymos designed the new DT update to make the trust feedbacks more flexible and later to make it available for the guest.

The main reason that I went for this solution rather than forcing custom lists is that I would like to show some trust indicator to guests.
I think theymos meant to show only the trust score to guests, not the full feedback.

Quote
From this I think it would be more helpful if you do it before theymos does it officially here. It's basically allowed.
The title probably gave the wrong impression, it's meant to be an archive used by existing users, not for others.

Quote
BTW, I would surely use your site once done! Wink
Great Cheesy

Since a user has to be logged into the forum to see others' profiles and trust page, will that user's name and avatar be displayed at the top of the archived page?
Name: yes. Just like Trust summary for LoyceV.
Avatar (and other images): maybe. It's going to be much easier to only copy the page, without saving images.
I don't see a problem with avatars though, archive.is shows them.

Quote
That's the only issue I would have with archives allowing pages to appear as they do for me when I'm logged in.  Maybe your archiving tool can incorporate Suchmoon's stealth code.
Do you mean just the avatar, or all images posted in a thread too?

Trust ratings are not moderated, and their value/accuracy is dependent on the viewer's trust network being reasonable. So they definitely shouldn't be indexed by search engines, at least: exclude it from robots.txt or use <meta name="robots" content="noindex,noarchive,nosnippet" />
Fair enough, I can do that Smiley

Quote
I can't currently think of any other issues resulting from mirroring them if they're excluded from search engines.
Thanks!

It is not about the fees or changing server, I have tried to change it all but nothing happens. I use seed and installed electrum on another device and finally was able to do 2 transactions but now the same thing I just can't send btc.
If you're really creating a 100 kB transaction, you're going to want to read Fees are low, use this opportunity to Consolidate your small inputs!
It explains how to select which inputs to use, and doing this correctly can save you a lot in fees.
19376  Other / Meta / Is it allowed to publish Trust feedback publicly? on: April 17, 2019, 12:16:46 PM
I often use archive.is to archive a page, and several sites offer something similar. However, those sites view the forum as guest, which means Trust isn't shown.

I'm thinking of creating a site that archives user profiles or Trust pages on request (reason why). This means that data which currenly is only available after logging in, becomes available to the internet.

At theymos' request, all pages will get this:
If you republish forum content, please add a tag like <link rel="canonical" href="https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5112444.0" /> in the header, pointing to the first page of the original topic so that Google doesn't get confused.

Before I create this, I have one question: Is it allowed to publish Trust feedback publicly?
Many users including myself have posted screenshots or quoted trust already.

Later on, I might expand this to archiving forum pages including users' trust ratings. I won't make Investigations public. I'll still archive them when requested, so that (when needed) users can ask what was archived via PM.
19377  Other / Meta / Re: The message exceeds the maximum allowed lenght (64000 characters) on: April 17, 2019, 11:48:51 AM
I use a text editor and some margin: I think the limit is 64000 characters HTML, not 64000 in BBCode. If you count the characters in a text editor, the result may or may not fit if it's close to 64000.

I think that's what lead to this error for tables much smaller than 64000 characters:
I'm trying to post a (big) table on Bitcointalk, to show the results of a giveaway. I know the maximum post size is 64000 bytes. My post is just over half that size, and I get this error:
Code:
INVALID BBCODE: loop, probably unclosed tags

The BBcode is valid. If I make it a bit shorter by taking out a few rows, I can post it.

And it looks like there's a bug: recently one of my topics was cut short without getting an error:
This topic was cut short: without giving an error about the 64kB limit, the last part was just cut off.



I would really like to see exceptions from this restriction for some users (me me me !). I sometimes create a thread in Archival for very long posts, but it would be much easier with a much higher limit. Especially BBCode and tables easily reach 64k characters.

If you're looking for a bounty campaign, in which you pay people Tokens to spam Bitcointalk and social media: several people offer this (but I won't link them).

If you're looking for a serious signature campaign that pays in Bitcoin, you should have a look at Overview of Bitcointalk Signature Anti-Spam Campaign Managers. I'm on the list too, and available Smiley

There isn't if you just delete a trust comment and re-enter it corrected/edited either which you can do, so why not just allow an edit?  Either way there is no "paper trail."
At least the new date shows when the new feedback was posted. I agree it's not ideal, but I didn't make it Tongue

I have personally experienced issues with this where users had left me a negative rating, then after making a topic and leaving my own negative rating for them they deleted it and reposed it to muddy the waters and make it look as if I was the first to do so over nothing. If people had not previously seen it there was no other way to verify short of staff checking logs and they aren't going to do so for that kind of petty nonsense.
I've been thinking of creating an Archive website for Bitcointalk that archives profiles and Trust, but don't have the skills Sad
