You will need to be a Full Member before adding an avatar.

This is off-topic, I guess however to answer your question:

You already have a signature in the profile ? Is your signature still available ?
If we come to an agreement then I will wait till the week finishes for my current signature, then I will start the contract which I am offering here. The current signature week ends on Thursdays 23:59 GMT so I will wait until Wednesday until the current week finishes.

User zainhaider just created a topic claiming s/he will do the following...

I will create bitcointalk accounts for you

Junior Member Account with 30+ activities and posts

Account with 70+ activities and posts

Account with 120+ activities and posts


✓ I will create a real and verified account for you
 ✓ Provide you email and password of bitcointalk account and associated account after completing the order
 ✓ 100% client satisfaction

Also they have created a fiverr service for this too.


These are the activities are the root of all spam. The user will ( or already have alt accounts and spamming the forum ) definitely keep spam the forum with nonsense posts or using spambots for nonsense posting to make the account looks like they are promising.

How do we can prevent it from the root level?
Also, can I report those kind of topics to the moderator?

PS: Tagging the user for the time being after posting the topic.

No doubt about JaoBadjap.

Too good to receive 10, 50, 24, 21 merits. I am going to tag however, I really hope some DT come forward.

Good job on finding OP.


Update:
Done! Thanks to LoyceV

Your sense really says that both cases are similar? Seriously! Dude do me a favor, instead of advocating for xandry, why not you knock him/her and ask to just give a feedback on this post? May be a statement which says s/he and theymos had an understanding on this issue whatever it is, just a satisfactory answer from  xandry can close all these illusions.

2028  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Should I invest in Bitcoin in late 2018? on: June 23, 2018, 12:52:23 PM
Hi All,

As a beginner and constantly learning about bitcoins.
Bitcoin prices are very unpredictable and hence it seems to me that investing in bitcoin is high risk.

I just wanted to know that is it a good idea to invest in Bitcoin in late 2018?

I am thinking to keep some money invested in bitcoins for at least 2 months. Will it be worth it?

I guess you better ask this question in Bitcoin Discussion board.
Bitcoin Forum > Bitcoin > Bitcoin Discussion

Please move the topic.
Scroll down a bit then on the left hand side look for move topic link. Click it then follow the on screen instructions.

Most of his posted used to go over my head. I used to have hard time to understand them.

Anyway, I guess he is possessed by supernatural aliens which spelled by Lauda
for Lauda cast a spell on me using dark powers of witchcraft!

By the way, he was/is a good asset for the forum. I hope he is physically and mentally very well.

I really don't understand why they try to get access.
-Seems like accounts are getting valuable like BitcoinTalk accounts here. People are trying to steal the credentials to sell later  Tongue


Activity has picked up a bit in that project
Good to know that your hard work is paying off a bit well. Good job.

Is Tman still around? I haven't seen him posting for ages. He didn't strike me as the sort of guy who would hide himself away. Smiley
I see him actively/silently giving merits to people but not making many posts around I guess. I admire his attitude although at the very beginning I used to thought he swears a lot LOL
I even had a stupid topic(you know those early days activities smile) which I do not want to bring here (teeth seeing smile)
2032  Other / Meta / Re: [Guide] Reporting effectively on: June 23, 2018, 11:42:09 AM
I concur that the report field is far from perfect, and the suggestions you made sound great, however it does the job.
It does the job no doubt. My concern is to have a better user experience. Anyway, it's not a big deal yet. I am sure we have other priorities to look at than this like: Better way for account recovery, plagiarism problem, stopping posting bots etc.

As long as you find good quality, spot on, constructive answers - in my mind, I do not see any problem. At-least you are not practicing giving away merit for reporting posts to moderators.

[staff] xandry: may I ask an explanation? ===> https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4330297.0


update:
While we will not be directly moderating this, I encourage people to give merit to posts that are objectively high-quality, not just posts that you agree with.
This was the whole theme behind giving merit, wasn't it?
2034  Other / Meta / Re: can not log in with firefox any more on: June 23, 2018, 11:00:53 AM
the captcha is not showing - and the message is to activate javascript - which of course IS activated and captcha on other sites works e.g. kraken site

Not sure about the root of the problem. Why not user other browser then like Google Chrome (may be you are already using it when you created this topic)? Hopefully you will have your answer from someone else on this thread.

I haven't really said to use Google/forum search to find referral links this way because it's incredibly inaccurate. However, I have suggested using the CTRL+F on the patrol page for it as that has seemed to work for me. I also included that r= is a good way of spotting whether a link is a referral link. But, unfortunately there's many different identifiers for referral links. However, I'm struggling at the moment to come up with a way to precisely explain how they would look. For example, a ref link might be Bitcointalk.org/1646356. There's no real universal way to search for referral links via a search engine/forum search because of the varying identifiers.  

There you have the answer @MagicSmoker
When I read your reply, I had the OP stuffs in mind. So, I did not actually read the whole thing from you.
2036  Other / Meta / Re: Is this a merit bug ? on: June 23, 2018, 10:19:10 AM
I must have just missed the defrocking. When I took the screenshots they didn't have red trust yet.
If you took them in the last hour then you must be missing it. They already have the red trust. Anyway it does not matter. You know it now  Smiley
2037  Other / Meta / Re: [Guide] Reporting effectively on: June 23, 2018, 10:12:56 AM
One quibble, though, is that entering "r=" or "/r=" (with or without quotes) into a Google site-search or the forum's native search just returns results for "R" and that, of course, is totally useless. At least it does so for me.
It really does not matter. OP was explaining the referral link spamming things. In a URL, it could be anything depending on the developer of the site. However, most of the time we see like this: r= or ref= etc.

Truth is, the variable can be anything even your or mine username like : mdayonliner= or  MagicSmoker=   Tongue

No LOL... You missed the topic to read. Hold on I am bringing it in a min.

We are calling it "de-ranked"  Tongue

Looks like we've got a few cases of a kind, gaining the infamous status of "de-ranked":
2039  Other / Meta / Re: Bitcoin Discussion is not Bitcoin Price Prediction Discussion on: June 23, 2018, 10:02:48 AM
The speculation threads are getting really annoying. Every day there's another handful of threads asking can bitcoin go to x this year?

I've suggested before that there should be warnings or the most commonly broken rules displayed at the top specific to the sub board they're about to post a new topic in. Ie in Bitcoin Discussion: Threads about the value of bitcoin don't belong here but in Speculation. Marketplace: Only bump your thread once every 24 hours etc. People tend not to pay attention to stickies and the more there is of them the less chance they have of reading them.

This idea of warnings is the best ever solution could do. This way people will think twice before writing something useless like we see on the topics that has no post for more than 120 days.

2040  Other / Meta / Re: [Guide] Reporting effectively on: June 23, 2018, 09:51:26 AM
I just finished reading the whole topic. Congrats mate for making it possible to bring everything in one place. You simplified this hard task with very easy instructions.

Spot on for me including the Examples section...

6. When coming across Malware or a phishing site it's best to be as clear, and in depth as you can. This will prevent the moderator dealing with the report from being potentially compromised as well. When dealing with Malware it's always best to include any virus scans that flag positive for malware. A good site is virustotal.com which can scan URLs for known malware. If the malware is injected through code on a website then specify this also.  Phishing sites can generally just be specified as a phishing site.

16. When reporting a user for having more than one active thread in the currency exchange section include a link to the other(s). I tend to report the least active threads. Otherwise, I just report the newer threads, and link to the older ones. The moderator can then decide on which ones to delete.

29. When reporting a personal message I would try to exclude admins unless it's a very important matter. If it's just for someone sending your spam then just include moderators/global moderators. Admins have several other duties such as account recoveries which your report would only hinder as its likely that the other moderators will deal with it anyway.


PS: I think, instead of the html text filed - we need html textarea for the enter comment section on the report to moderator page. The current text field does not help that much when you are going to write in details about the reason of your report like: 8. "Death threats/threats of physical harm. '<quote of threat>'


HTML textarea example:
Code:
<textarea rows="4" cols="50">
Instead of the html text box we need html textarea for the report comment box. When you are going to write details about a report then the current text box really does not help that much.
</textarea>
