Just some random post, as the login timer seems to be stuck... maybe this will kickstart it.

Quote from: Jillybean on March 20, 2013, 11:17:07 PM It can tell when you're active, not just having a window open and the site up. Define "active". Looking at the window? Scrolling it up and down? Clicking links? Refreshing the same page over an over again? How often?

Quote from: proways on March 20, 2013, 10:57:55 PM No, it doesn't..it keeps track of how much you spent online before leaving the forum Define "leaving". A hour went by, but the counter shows only 3 minutes more than then.

Quote from: stshiOption on March 20, 2013, 09:14:17 PM So I'm logged in... but the timer isn't ticking down... How does this work? Yeah, I had Total time logged in: 1 hours and 20 minutes more than an hour ago, but now it still shows just 1 hours and 40 minutes. Does it reset to zero after I log off, close the browser or shut down the PC?

Quote from: np on March 20, 2013, 06:55:53 PM While this is a meaningful restriction, I think it should be made clearer to newbies why they cannot posts. The lack of reply box is not intuitive. I concur. Some forums send an email or show a message after registration, like: Your account is limited until an administrator approves it, or you verify your email address or similar... I only found out why I can't post after asking on IRC. There should be a message after login or a permanent message bar with an explanation.

Quote from: tutkarz on March 20, 2013, 06:42:07 PM While i understand why this restrictions was made, i would like to also point out, that it forces people to spam useless posts in newbie area just to be able to post elsewhere. Yes, this was my first thought too.

I forgot to add this: This information should be added to the README/release notes. On a related thing, the release notes say: Quote Mac and Windows binaries are signed with certificates owned by the Bitcoin Foundation, to be compatible with the new security features in OSX 10.8 and Windows 8. But I just downloaded http://sourceforge.net/projects/bitcoin/files/Bitcoin/bitcoin-0.8.1/bitcoin-0.8.1-win32.zip/download , unzipped it, opened the properties of the file bitcoin-qt.exe and there is no sign of any signature. If I start it on Windows 2012, the SmartScreen feature complains it having an unknown publisher. Windows 8 on the other hand does not complain. Strange.

Hi! Since version 0.8.x uses hardlinked files, what is the correct way to backup/restore or migrate to other PC the %APPDATA%/Bitcoin folder? Before I just copied it and it worked. Are the "duplicate" files really needed? ----- OK, read read thru the rather long Bitcoin-Qt / bitcoind version 0.8.0 released thread and found out: blk0001.dat, blk0002.dat, blk0003.dat and blkindex.dat from the data directory can be removed , probably also blk0004.dat that was not mentioned in that post, but is also a hardlinked file Also: the scenario of upgrading a standalone exe (from bitcoin-0.x.y-win32.zip) on Windows is not described in the README.txt
