Yeah, as long the source is provided then its not considered as plagiarism. Look the reported copy-pasted post in this thread[1], you will find how plagiarised posts looks.

Although, those who usually do something like that are those considered spammers by many who only care post counts.

2. OP deletes the entire thread minutes/hours just before the signature week is over.
Is it? or mods just moved it to trashcan?

Sounds like this problem is related to signature campaigns particularly post counts. If this is really an issue, better to post on a thread/topic that has lower chance to be deleted then don't just make a post for bare minimum on the campaign's requirements. Besides there are lots of good forum proposals suggested before by other members yet theymos didn't mind it, how about just this one.

Well, i think most web hosting now accepts bitcoin and crypto payments, or not. I don't have any experience other than namecheap and hostinger so i can't say about other service. And i have good experience both of these two.

Also, check this list
- Hostwinds
- THCServers
- Host1plus
- Hostsailor

Note, im not affiliated or promoting the services mentioned, always DYOR.
2084  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Are we ever going to see this on gambling platforms some day. on: December 16, 2022, 10:26:01 PM
This only happened irl platform/stage like a casual betting pvp, this happened in my place like it was a fiesta if i remember correctly, it was before though. The owner of the consoles organized it and betting take place around the audience only.

But i never see any online platform have this kind of idea on betting. It will be interesting for those fan of mortal combat, and those who actually have this games.
2085  Bitcoin / Wallet software / Re: What do you think about trust wallet? on: December 16, 2022, 07:05:24 AM
You have a very high (and unrealistic) opinion of these centralized services that doesn't seem true based on the history. All the hacks and weaknesses in their platforms in the past aside, we have also seen them be too incompetent in implementing new features like accepting SegWit addresses that most CEXes took years to do something very simple!

Besides when it comes to backdoors the best case scenario is to have them unintentionally. These companies are not bigger than Microsoft and we know their product (Windows) is the mother of all backdoors and it is closed source!
Oh, yeah, right that's why most open source wallets are the most targeted apps of any hacks, scams and phishing, e.g. Electrum. I remember millions was lost and got phished not once[1] but twice[2]. Well, there are lot of hack cases happened in an open source apps too  including the smart contracts[3].
Also, i bet there is no way you can verify that the code published publicly as open source are the same actual codes that were deployed on their live servers. Unless it was compiled by you to build the application from being open source, or from github it self.

And talking about the coinomi, the lost amount of money
were too little compared to electrum.
Well, it is still hacked, and i don't justify any kind of hacked, scam or anything to money theft.

See, either its open source or closed source, hacks and scams happen. While being open source has huge advantage, but the fact that people still need to trust the developers who make the code and conduct the code audit because not everyone can read source codes, so you still need to "trust" someone/developer for your safety and fund security while most people who conduct this scams, hacks, phishing are developers as well.
Same on a closed source apps, you need to trust the people/business behind of those codes.
So who should people trust? Unknown or/and known developers from open source community, or those developer paid by these businesses running those apps or just the business.
Where later on you can sue the business for what incident happen, while you can't to open source developers because they are excluded if people read open source license particularly the MIT, ISC and other no liability open source licenses.

2086  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is There Any Crypto Casino With An In-built Mini Crypto Exchange? on: December 15, 2022, 11:21:25 PM
Why there is no exchange in gambling/casino? Probably because it will require another license to operate as an exchange especially for a usdt pair. For simply bitcoin to other non-usd peg alt, i guess that's okay but it will require another resources to build since its not built-in feature for an casino-software.

I personally hate to gamble with bitcoin, because I could be gambling away 0.05 btc and it appears small, but when converted to usdt, that's a really big amount, this is why I prefer to gamble using usdt, or shiba or TRX, which give me clear indications of what am staking and could possibly lose.
For simple conversion, just google it or other converter site in your new tab. I will consider it as simple way alternative than demanding new feature for a business, although it might be a good feature but it's not inline on their software.
2087  Bitcoin / Wallet software / Re: What do you think about trust wallet? on: December 15, 2022, 10:12:40 AM
Binance (or any similar centralized entity in control of a closed source wallet) doesn't have to be malicious itself, their code could contain backdoors and they could never see it while it is being exploited by hackers, etc. On top of that the other issue with closed source software like this is that they usually rely on a centralized server which means the user has 0 privacy.
I'm still hostile to believe that it will be the case for closed source for having backdoors, or malicious codes. Especially for such business running financial apps, QA and other quality control will always be followed before releasing the app in production.
For privacy matters, indeed its always be the case for most closed source apps.
2088  Bitcoin / Wallet software / Re: What do you think about trust wallet? on: December 15, 2022, 02:33:12 AM
What they are saying is that Trust wallet is not opensource wallet which could mean Binance may have altered something to the codes that are not known to users. Who knows maybe they put some backdoors to it.
Even though this is a "thing" for a closed source application, i think this is not possible "right now" considering binance is the one behind the continuous development of the wallet.
Well, unless they become like FTX which will be the worst to happen in crypto considering how the market was affected previously, or those shitty exchanges, anyway that's a different topic already.

But of course, being security cautious will keep you away from related danger better safe than never.
2089  Other / Meta / Re: Ignored user's post on QUOTE is visible on: December 14, 2022, 11:43:57 PM
I will leave this reply from suchmoon the same case/concern related to ignored/quoted post, posted a year ago.

Someone who quotes your ignored user might have an otherwise useful post. It would be nice to have the quote of the ignored user to be collapsed (and while we're at it, collapse/reduce wall-quotes and large images too) but hiding the whole post would be too harsh IMO.
I see this as most appropriate reason why theymos don't snip/hide the post who quote the post of the ignored user.
2090  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Can We Consider This Casino An Industry Giant In Marketing Here In Bitcointalk on: December 14, 2022, 11:31:02 PM
we have quite a number of names doing great things but having a big budget doesn't mean profitable, but to survive this long it might be the case Tongue
But without enough big budget, project will not survive this long. About being profitable, only their marketing and finance team knows it. Also, the fact that they stay this long, that it means that profit > marketing budget because if it's not, what's the reason of continuing the campaign if its not profitable.
2091  Other / Meta / Re: Legendary jail: Too fast / overloaded (503) on: December 14, 2022, 07:37:50 AM
If the mentioned on the page is not what you are doing, then you might be using TOR? or having multiple tab opens?

Because 503 error code mean is overloaded for the requests (multiple requests) the server is receiving at the that time. Also what is newbie jail just heard it lol.
2092  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Scammed by Cainos on: December 13, 2022, 11:47:51 PM
Dealing transactions to a newbie is too risky. Look, even people here give negative feedback that newbie account for this case, it is easy to dump that account then create a new one.
Plus, those kind of accounts he is selling or you are buying are really prone to scams, because those accounts can be recovered by the original owner by just making support ticket. So obviously you are wasting your money and time dealing such kind of transactions. May this serve you a lesson in the future to avoid dealing newbies without escrow, or dealing to those kind of accounts.

As a manager, don't you check the post history, or rather accept members based on the trust rating on their profile?
Whatta kind question to a manager for an obvious answer. This is obviously written on every rules of every campaigns he manage or any campaign manager out there.
2094  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why every casino got bad habits? on: December 13, 2022, 10:43:03 PM
Each and every casino which has their ANN thread here, has at least one complaint against them; sometimes confiscated funds, delayed withdrawal, not paying the winning, freezing account etc. Why this is the principal of all the casinos? Why they can't operate without having any issues? They always do this shit; who knows what has been done with people who don't know how to deal with such a casino.
Because we are living in a perfect world 🙃

Well, this is not only for casinos, every services mostly do, that's why customer support is an existing job too to cater this kind of situations.
Sometimes this is not all about casino's fault, usually this is from users who doesn't know how to read and follow its terms, rules, etc.

Plus, complains are existing to make services improve, well, sometimes.
And also, there will be always an unfair treatment of casino supports every once in a while, unfair and one sided terms. That even a law abiding users sometimes get victimize for such terms, but it will be solve if as soonest as possible if casinos really care.
But honestly speaking, most complains really comes from stubborn entitled users and problematic gamblers, there are a lot of them who just want to use their trick and complain and come up to tell everyone that they just do this and that to make them look innocent.
2095  Other / Off-topic / Re: Team USA will play in the Philippines for the FIBA WORLD CUP 2023 on: December 13, 2022, 04:01:11 PM
this is the first time that Gilas will be able to compete against team USA
Technically speaking, there is no draw yet, it will be held next year, it just that the team USA was just assigned to play in the Philippines either in MoA or Araneta Col. So team USA vs Philippines is not sure yet but it is not impossible to happen if and only if PH team will dominate the game and got a chance to world's bests including USA.

About the ticket fees, well, expects it will be higher since this is a world cup than those typical PBA match, but not so expensive. Or the association will probably face a slap from the public.
2096  Other / Meta / Re: Trust page time format hard coded on: December 13, 2022, 03:49:06 AM
Date format in the trust page is not "hard coded" since it is saved to the forum's database. It's just not affected when changing the time format, it probably has date data type.

While i might agree that it should be changed too when changing the time format since it's describe that its "throughout this forum". But theymos could just change the "Time Format" description instead that only post time format are affected.
2097  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [BOXING] Manny Pacquiao vs. DK Yoo on: December 13, 2022, 02:57:59 AM
But this one is a different fight. This was all for fun and for charity. We can understand Manny if he's not that relaxed. This is his first exhibition match I think.
Well, if you will research the meaning of "exhibition match" it is all about to entertain the audience and promote the sports (boxing).

Now, for a fighter like Manny a knockdown, or KO/TKO in a match is well entertaining match than to use up all the remaining rounds, it might be a short fight since it was stopped after KO/TKO. But again it is well-entertained and its the true essence of boxing (win from KO or TKO). For those boxing fans in the stadium, streaming online watching the match, it's an expectation for a fighter like Manny. I won't buy if there's no knockdown or KO in a match while this legend is there in the ring, unless he's matched to a pro boxer with his caliber.
2098  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [BOXING] Manny Pacquiao vs. DK Yoo on: December 12, 2022, 11:55:13 PM
Can't believe Pacman KOed that Yootuber brutally, it doesn't look like an exhibition fight as Pacman exercise his full force to show his KO power. The exhibition that I have in mind is just like Tyson vs Jones who just keeps the pace while maintaining not to crush someone.

It's not surprising. If Pacman disregard that fight as an exhibition match, the fight will be over in just 1 round.

But since they are having entertainment and the fight doesn't have any bearing but just as a show, Pacman tries to keep the fight lasts for the whole 6 rounds.
Lol, yeah right? We're talking of pacman here after all. I guess that was the very first time of pacman for an exhibition fight, which now everyone knows how pacman fight in an exhibition fight. I feel like this wont be the last since i feel like more celebrity online or not will try to feel how strong and fast this man is in the ring.
2099  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Ever heard of provably fair system for online crypto casinos and slot games? on: December 12, 2022, 06:07:44 PM
Ever heard of the provably fair system for both non-crypto and crypto casino and slot games? If yes, how did you get to figure it out? If no, would you love to research further and apply this?
Most casino and gambling sites supports provably fair system always announced it on the homepage or anywhere on the site explaining things, and there's verifier for the users to check, i mean it's obvious to see if a gambling site supports it.
About the non-crypto casinos, i don't know never tried one, but i think they don't have such since i visited some casinos' site before yet can't find a page related to it.

I will stay away from your site after your reply about your bankroll before

SCAM ALERT! Don't play on this site --> Spiroll.app

Before you said, the max win is $5,000,000 but your bankroll only $250,000 which 20x lower than max winning amount. Imagine someone lucky to won more than $250k on your site, then...

Hello everyone! I was really upset when I saw this thread. It is very offensive that you slander without knowing why the topic was deleted. Yes, I deleted the topic. Our developer team found a big bug and I had to delete the thread hastily. After that i stopped the website. You are right in some of the comments. Big win was so high and we decreased it to $500.000. But we didn't scammed anyone! Playing or not is up to you. But before you slander, you have to ask the reasons. Thanks to everyone.




I agree with you that there’s no scam being done yet but you should be clear on what you are declaring before you put details about your casino here. There’s tons of new casino popping up here that turns to a scam. Although his conclusion base on your latest activity is harsh though.

Prove that you really have the bank roll to sustain your bets if you want to clear your reputation. Without this I myself will believe on the accusation which you dodge on your previous thread. Besides your thread deletion move will surely give a sign that you are guilty for there accusation. I’m just still giving you the benefit of the doubt since you still came back with same account to post much clearer details for your thread.

Prove your bankroll to make it simple.
Give the guy a chance, it an honest mistake actually which he/she admitted beforehand. So yeah, may this serve as a lesson to OP to double check everything before going to public.
I won't go with the others since it may look like a broken record to repeat about the mistake and OP is here to clear the issue.
