2061  Economy / Reputation / Re: [Spammer Blacklist] The Shitlist on: July 04, 2019, 03:35:08 PM
I usually just lurk in the Meta and Reputation sections as i've found it best to keep your head down as an 'operator', but I'm amazed our old friend Game-Protect hasn't made it onto the list.

I've enjoyed sparring with him over the past year and he is usually pretty careful to skirt just around the rules, but he's gone off the deep end with the spam this week:
Yeah, I was looking at the Scam Accusation board and wondered why all these threads got bumped. Anyone who takes up 80% of the "last posted" on a board is likely a spammer, especially if they're burst-posting like that.
2062  Other / Meta / Re: I don't understand this Ban Reason. Help is appreciated. on: July 04, 2019, 01:49:48 AM
I can understand that. Then what is the good way for participating in this campaign if likes,comments etc are considered low effort tasks then the campaign shouldn't even exist...
Don't participate in the campaign.

It shouldn't exist. But moderators can't get to these campaign threads immediately, especially since there are so many. I'm not sure how he handles it but sometimes moderation won't start until a good couple days after a thread has started. And in that time, plenty of participants could enter.
It's on you from now on to watch out: don't expect everything to align with the rules.



Just did a double-take and saw that the campaign was in BTC. This is kind of a weird one, because it's not really an altcoin giveaway. But it does promote zero-value posts where they could be submitted on an external page. So I'm not sure.
2063  Other / Meta / Re: I don't understand this Ban Reason. Help is appreciated. on: July 04, 2019, 01:42:55 AM
Edit:Just saw your edited message. So If I understood well I'm not allowed to report my tasks (likes comments etc..) daily even if I'm incentivized to do these tasks but not incentivized to post in the thread?
Those "likes" fall under the low-effort tasks.

I think you should just steer clear of anything that belongs to that. Consider the ban a warning. Most bounties correspond with the rules so it's not like you'll be short of any supply.
Subscribing to the channel, liking the video, commenting, and liking comments are all tasks that are considered low-effort.


It's kind of subjective but there's a clear line between substantial effort and low-effort.
2064  Other / Meta / Re: I don't understand this Ban Reason. Help is appreciated. on: July 04, 2019, 01:32:19 AM
I don't remember joining any giveaway that paid me to post on this forum.The only bounties I'm participating in is PointPay signature campaign and the Youtube Campaign.
Did they need a post on their thread for YouTube? How about the signature campaign? If they incentivized posting on their threads, then that is against the rules.
Here's the relevant thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3953664.msg37702167#msg37702167

Quote
Incentivizing posting within one or several threads via low effort tasks (e.g. signups or proof of participation for liking, following, subscribing, retweeting, tweeting a single tweet, joining a channel or group, etc.) is not allowed as it falls under the "no altcoin giveaways" rule (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2103687.0)


Accepting signups or requiring proof of participation for tasks requiring substantial effort (e.g. signature campaign signups, weekly social media campaign reports, media (videos, images, articles, etc.) bounty signups, etc.) via a thread posted in Bounties (Altcoins) is allowed though.

EDIT: Obviously, participating in such giveaways is prohibited as well.

2065  Other / Meta / Re: What is off topic? And is it spam to say congratulations/thank you? on: July 04, 2019, 01:30:49 AM
Yes, I understand what you are saying. However other posts did mentioned the music, also, so it wasn't completely random. The video was a celebration of the building and opening of the mining set up. And there were also congrats.
Can you link the post?

If other posts mentioned the music... (and were also asking for it) then your post may have been repetitious. Any remarks that are repeated do not contribute to the conversation/discussion and are inherently insubstantial.

The other thing is: other members may not have had a signature (or rather a campaigned signature). Mods are usually stricter on users that are in campaigns since they have an incentive to create replies on a regular basis whether they're on or off-topic.
2066  Other / Ivory Tower / Re: Will phages replace the use of failing antibiotics on: July 04, 2019, 01:26:34 AM
-snip-
Consideration:

Artificial selection of high resource-consuming bacteria.
Further artificial selection can be made to ensure that they are: quickly-reproducing, inert, cannibalistic (e.g. B. subtilis) or a combination thereof.

Keep them grown in isolated environments and release them in large doses. They may die out but they will take the less-inert bacteria with them. That is the key point: rather than natural selection now favoring antibiotic-resistant bacteria, it is now favoring bacteria that take less resources, whether antibiotic-resistant or not.

It might be a double-edged sword, though, if the residual bacteria population starts mingling with that of surviving antibiotic-resistant populations.

Looks like they changed the title to try and stay under the radar.
Flag supported.

Mate, if you're going to try and post random TXIDs that you're found with output amounts to match your supposed "payouts"... at least try and make it convincing.
Considering that the kind of people to fall for these scams aren't really going to pay attention to the fine details, I don't think ponzi scammers will really shell out any more effort than necessary. Most of the time they don't even do this: you'll see shill accounts rather than any automated process.
I also love how this "service" is paying out from "bc1", "P2SH-P2WPKH","P2SH" AND "Legacy" addresses... considering that every single generated deposit address is a "Legacy" one... Roll Eyes
Don't worry! The legacy address is their secure wallet where the others are the hot wallet.

Obviously.

most of the result are tools for scanning file which result in no virus.
Those "tools" are very juvenile in what they search for.

Keep in mind as well, JS scripts do not only open up the user to loss of finances but it compromises the user's data profile. Whether small or holistic, installing this is just asking to get exploited.

I'm not touching this. Someone else can audit on an airgapped machine but even then, it's not worth the hassle.

Estimated time to hit 1 billion: 36 hours, margin of error +/- 12 hours due to bet acceleration towards tail end and variable player counts.

Good luck.
2070  Economy / Lending / Re: Need loan 10 bitcoins (real life deal) on: July 03, 2019, 11:56:24 PM
If posting in the lending bitcoin community a post about loan is insanity then you need to check your sanity at the doctors room. Who will lend what is their own decision, not mine or yours. I’m not working online to provide virtual collaterals to anyone, I’m doing business face to face. I understand you had just something to type.
Is there nobody in Georgia to lend money to you?

After all, if you can guarantee a 2-month ROI (which is extremely short) then you should be able to easily construct a PoC to engage prospective investors.

Rather than spamming a forum which doesn't give you the light of day and is unlikely to do ever do so you should be looking for people elsewhere for your "real life deal".
I notice in your April post you promised a 200% return in one week.

Why don't you tell all your friends and family that?

Seems like a contrived issue. Why does it have to be any particular day, never mind the last day of the month?
The company posted a document where it'svery difficult to determine who did participants the KYC , there is no proper identification at least by the name BTT.

There were 3 matches for "Ihor" because there were the following entries: {Ihor, Ihor Bortnikov, Ihor Hladkiy}
I don't like how they're revealing names in a public spreadsheet though. That's pretty bad.

2072  Other / Meta / Re: LoyceV's data on the Wall Observer thread || moon, hodl , fuck, weeee on: July 03, 2019, 10:26:07 PM
I think in general most WOs have the decency to leave out altcoin talk to be respectful of the sanctity of the thread. An occasional mention seems fine but repeated pushing of alts is highly discouraged.
Considering it's not the Altcoin fucking Discussion board, it makes sense.

Irrelevant and usually bullshit.
If it looks like shit and smells like shit and scales like shit, it's probably a shitcoin

2074  Economy / Lending / Re: I will issue a loan secured by and without collateral. Only serious borrowers. on: July 03, 2019, 08:22:27 PM
Possible identity theft or collateral scam.

Do not approach the user. You are unlikely to receive a loan and would be better off consulting anyone else in your near circles or someone else on-forum.

Do not email them recklessly.
2075  Other / Meta / Re: Can we have a pop up icon recommending posts? on: July 03, 2019, 08:05:58 PM
Want high-merit posts? Search for them. There are the merit pages for that.
Want specific results? Search for them. There is the search bar for that.

I don't exactly want the forum to start storing thousands of "good project" and "proof of authentication" crap right now.
2076  Other / Meta / Re: What has changed in last 60 days to allow Yobit to have campaigns here ? on: July 03, 2019, 06:29:55 PM
Sounds terrible, but really? Yobit is shady and non-customer support, but I did not see others complain about that. I could be wrong because maybe there are posts or threads on Yobit that I did not see so far. I remember about Callisto Network (CLO) coin. Yobit support that coin when it forked from Ethereum Classic many months ago, but during early days (or even weeks), they don't allow users to make deposits. They just allow users whom received Callisto Network on their sites to sell CLO coins.
Probably some delisting like most exchanges that host a load of coins.

Any coins that are left on their exchange are taken away and used at their discretion. That's why you should control your own keys... otherwise you're at the whim of some third-party entity.
2077  Other / Meta / Re: What has changed in last 60 days to allow Yobit to have campaigns here ? on: July 03, 2019, 02:20:55 PM
I wasn't aware that they'd started a campaign yet again after their ban, since I have signatures blocked--but I'm not surprised that a lot of people woke up to participate in it.
It surprises me that you have signature ads on block when you're in one yourself, sound's funny to me. Normally when forum members come out to declare they have the signature or avatar feature disabled, they usually aren't participants of the system (signature campaign). I mean what's the profit in not giving others the opportunity to sell their product to you when you do sell your to them in the same manner (signature space). No offense, just need charity from your angle.
This is somewhat ironic indeed.
I would say that disabling avatars and signatures makes one's forum experience more streamlined. Less clutter and fixation on individual users. Rather, you focus on the posts themselves.
Dissociating the person from the argument is what allows for honest discussion.
2078  Other / Meta / Re: What is off topic? And is it spam to say congratulations/thank you? on: July 03, 2019, 04:31:42 AM
The Mining section is pretty strict on the posts from what I've heard.
If you still want to know the answer to your question I would PM the thread-owner.

The issue with spam is that most people will say thanks or some vague statement of approval/agreement and add something to pad the post. Perhaps a moderator thought you did the same.
2079  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Trump and Noble Prize? on: July 03, 2019, 03:29:44 AM
So is it a popularity contest? Is it a skin color contest?

If not, why did Obama get it?

If so, then is black man good, orange man bad?
Non-sequitur.

akamit stating that Trump is unworthy of the "Noble" prize does not mean that Obama is.
2080  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Defaulted loan on: July 03, 2019, 03:23:59 AM
such a person would be better off scamming a no-collateral loan or earning via sig campaigns. It looks like sig campaigns would be more profitable but on the other hand... hacked accounts
Bear in mind as well: merit requirements are exponential alongside time requirements. Scammers don't want to wait a year to turn into a Sr. Member whilst accumulating a huge toll of 250 merit. That takes far too long.

Scamming with a member account is easy. And if we consider the amount of Member accounts that someone can pump out with airdropped merit & circles, this corresponds to quite a bit.
