I brought him up in the staff forum back in February. Obviously just a troll account. Pretty sure he is NLC as well. Probably best to just ignore him because nothing will likely be done about it.
Thanks, that more or less answers my question. It's allowed ![Sad](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/sad.gif) No real/experienced bitcoiner/trader will take any of freightjoe's posts or comments about the bitcoin seriously,and anyone who does is probably a noob Most serious posters have abandoned the spammy boards. The noobs are the ones left, and they're probably being influenced by FUD. Restricting such FUDs in any form, would spark another kindle of FUD. Directed against the forum, and how it's against criticism. You have a point, but I'm not talking about restricting his FUD. Let him FUD all he wants, but he should contain it in just one thread. Sharing the same FUD in many different threads is just spam. I mean, if you don't like Audi, you don't go to an Audi forum and open 4 topics about how much you dislike it per day, right?
That isn't quite true. There are trolls on the internet who love fucking with people who are passionate about something--doesn't matter if it's Audis, fountain pens, comic books, or bitcoin. Let me rephrase that: You don't go spam an Audi forum without getting banned ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif) I'll ignore the account.

anyway i just noticed i got 83 friends only so i guess i dont qualify for the facebook part anyway ^^ I think I can bend the rules a bit, 83 non-ICO friends is a decent amount.

You qualify for 250 bits for playing 1000 rounds. To make it 350 bits, your Facebook account has to qualify, but unfortunately I can't see your friends. That's probably a privacy setting, can you check that first? I've sent you 20 bits for posting your username ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

I'm thinking about freightjoe for example: Why are FUD-trolls allowed to open 4 topics on a day, meanwhile spamming the same FUD in many other topics? Why is this allowed on Bitcointalk? I mean, if you don't like Audi, you don't go to an Audi forum and open 4 topics about how much you dislike it per day, right? Why is it allowed to do that here? I can only think of a few reasons for doing this: someone is getting paid to do this (as part of a FUD campaign in the media from some "established parties" against crypto), or someone is trolling because he missed the boat and hopes to buy more cheaper, or just shorting Bitcoin. Whatever the reason is, I think it's toxic to this community. Each of his topics quickly grows to a few pages because of the generic signature spammers, so his FUD gets all the exposure he needs. So again, my question is: why is this allowed? I know this forum values freedom of speech, but can't his FUD be restricted to just one topic? Let it grow into a Spam Megathread instead of spamming several boards on a daily basis.

is it possible to run the program and work with the GPU instead of the CPU?
Yes, use oclvanitygen.

I ran chkdsk /f /r, which replaced bad clusters across several folders but then pc crashed after a day... Your hardware is failing. If you find bad clusters, you should replace the disk. Make sure your backups are up to date (do this NOW!). You shouldn't keep using an unreliable disk, it may even still have warranty (make sure to shred all data before sending it in).

Story time ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) Earlier today, moneymakescents777 made the mistake of spamming a Youtube video in a tech topic that's on my Watchlist. It turned out he was spamming a lot, I reported about 30 posts, and they all got deleted. But he didn't get banned. I wanted to see how many posts I could get removed, planning to open a topic in Meta asking how much spam a user can post before he gets banned. But then I used this as a comment with my report: And he's banned. From BPIP: Profile has been Autobanned 70 replies deleted by moderators 13 topics removed I'm not sure if this is a coincidence, but it's worth trying this more often. If Mods can't easily see how often a user had posts deleted, they can't know he's a repeat offender.

I'm at this: You have reported 5061 posts with 99% accuracy (4755 good, 71 bad, 235 unhandled). Do not worry about your accuracy too much; one accurate report is worth many inaccurate reports. 37 days later: You have reported 5551 posts with 99% accuracy (5242 good, 71 bad, 238 unhandled). Do not worry about your accuracy too much; one accurate report is worth many inaccurate reports. It was a quiet month ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif) Only 487 new good reports, 0 bad, 3 unhandled.

It's safe to assume anything else than the official domain is a scam. This goes for any mixer, exchange or wallet.

Is not clear to me how this thing works in the case of a person with a dynamic IP (when they can change IP simply by resetting the router). It's not a perfect system ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) This explains it a bit: When you register, the IP that you used when you submitted the registration form is used to calculate your evilness. The more frequently this IP or its neighbors were banned, the more evil is associated with your account. The amount of evil associated with an IP decays slowly over time, but the amount of evil associated with an account does not. You must pay or be manually whitelisted to enable posting on one of these "banned" accounts. My suggestion would be to add evilness retroactive. This too isn't perfect, but might help a bit too.

Read this: Limiting newbie participation is very harmful for a community. Newbie jail will never return: I consider the newbie-jail period to have been extremely damaging to the forum. When barriers to participation are too high, then the best people often just won't go to the trouble of joining, and the people who are willing to jump through the hoops are often people who aren't good for the community: people with nothing better to do, scammers, get-rick-quickers, etc. Having a permanent newbie jail policy would improve things a lot in the short-term, but would end up being a fatal poison to the community. I'd love to have less spam, especially from bots, but I don't expect theymos to add more restrictions to new registrations. I would like to see much more bans. If I check some random spammers on BPIP, many of them have many deleted posts, but aren't banned. Even posts reported for plagiarism don't always lead to a ban. The chances of getting caught for plagiarism or spam are low, as it's humans fighting against bots. If those spam bots get second, thirth ... and even tenth chances, it feels very demotivating to report them. That gets me on to another point. Can we please stop this backseat modding? What I mean by this is instead of reporting the topic you just post what they should of done or attack the user for spamming and all you are doing is promoting their spam by bumping their thread. Just report it and move on. You can report the posts that quote spam or off-topic posts too (that's what I do) ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) The thing is that there are so many already unbanned inactive registered accounts, that even if you wanted to restrict accounts from registering, setting into motion whatever set of verifications or restrictions, we’ll likely get a lot of already inactive registered accounts coming back to life with a market for them. Considering the fact I've seen "incidents" where there are suddenly 6000 more registrations than usual on one day, I wouldn't be against banning all Brand New accounts that are more than a month old. Make this a one-time thing, so spam bots don't get a reason to start spamming with their new accounts, and this won't hurt many real users, while disabling hundreds of thousands of sleeping spam accounts that are waiting to be activated. As an alternative, it would be good to add "units of evil" to existing Brand New accounts, even if the IP wasn't evil when they registered. That means a spam bot that registered many accounts at once will be punished on all accounts if some of his accounts get banned.

I am saying that I believe I deserve a second chance Read this post by theymos. It doesn't matter what you or anyone else believes, that topic is filled with endorsements from green-trusted users, and he's still banned.

Recently my account "Roboabhishek" got banned, and I am sure it was due to copy paste. Quoted for reference. I can Sign the message from "1CjgsXAjvfhUKqtjPzCAMCF5tdB2GpfxC4" linked on my lending thread https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2220514.0Message: Signing this message on 3rd Dec for proving that I'm the owner of Roboabhishek Signature: IKzLBfxzJaW30FA1rQcs2ySxotOsQP7FMOonh/WeE6b5NxLJINN5Na6qJLkOjbLnM3lprwfCbwsGgDZQQBjR28M= Address: 1CjgsXAjvfhUKqtjPzCAMCF5tdB2GpfxC4 Verified.

Verified. The user BitcoinMarshall was providing me posts for the loan I provided him. BitcoinMarshall is banned already, so I don't think your loan will be paid back. Self admitted plagiarist. Why are you complaining exactly? I don't really see him complaining, it's more like stating facts. I must say it's kinda refreshing to see someone actually admit to plagiarism, instead of denying it until some quoted evidence is provided. As for the ban: it's your own responsibility to make sure your posts don't break the rules. Even legit hacked accounts aren't getting recovered, and for plagiarism I've only seen 1 exception made for as long as I've been on this forum. That only leaves your loan business: do you have any outstanding loans to deal with? Since your account has light-green trust, I'll leave a neutral feedback to show that it's banned.

The merit system in my opinion should be reserved for the very best posts or at least ones which have been well thought out. I disagree: if we only allow the very best posters to rank up, this forum will be very quiet in the future. I welcome any Newbie who's not a spammer.

I want to keep my cookies and delete my distort so the browser doesn’t remember every thread link that I click on.
That's just a browser setting, but it's a global setting in your browser, so it will act the same on all sites you visit. In Firefox, click Preferences > search "history" > untick "Remember browsing and download history" or tick "Clear history when Firefox closes". You may want to do the same for disk cache. I'm not sure if this is what you were looking for, it's kinda trivial, and for sure not a Meta subject.
