Welcome


Similar as before, I will explain you in a PM how the correct number was calculated, for not spoiling the surprise of others, okay? However, you discovered something very important and I thank you for that. I'll detail in the PM.


Actually, there are only 21 questions, not 23

I just took a glance at first 70-80 votes (out of 100) and, so far, this is how this top look like so far: GazetaBitcoin (22 votes), lovesmayfamilis (18 votes), Ratimov (18 votes), mprep (6 votes), Lafu (5 votes), actmyname (4 votes), The Pharmacist (3 votes), BitcoinGirl.Club (3 votes), Welsh (2 votes), SFR10 (2 votes), suchmoon (2 votes) and 13 more users with 1 vote each. I did not count with 100% attention, I just took a glance, so there may be minor differences. But I did it because you made me curious.

About which top 3 nominees are you referring by saying they can't even boast 500-1000 good reports?

This is true. Reporting "duty" is most of the time a silent one...

I noticed, a few days ago, that someone made a post in this topic. I noticed it as the topic was highlighted when selecting "Show new replies to your posts". However, I did not see who made the post and I also did not read the post at the respective moment. A few days later I remember about it and I come to check the topic, but it seems that whoever made the post, deleted it, as now the last post of the topic (excepting this one) is from July 24th.

Is there any way to see the deleted post? Maybe LoyceV can help somehow...? I am curious what the post was about (also why it was deleted).

Fiuuuuu hai ca n-am mai avut timp deloc in ultimele zile, desi tare mult voiam sa scriu aici cateva randuri... In fine, a dat Domnul si am reusit astazi, de ziuna natiunii

Atentie, urmeaza o postare destul de lunga.


Aici suntem partial de acord, partial in dezacord. Nu sunt nici eu de acord cu toti care scriu postari despre cum au ajuns de la "zirău" la "erău", si am formulat asa ca sa rimeze si in romana. Singurul topic de genul pe care eu l-am scris vreodata, este Gazeta's reputation thread: 1000 merits in less than a year, acesta fiind un topic despre reputatie, nu despre "from zero to Hero" (scuzati engleza, am pus intre ghilimele insa, fiind vorba de un citat ). Mai mult, in acel topic am si specificat clar faptul ca


Aditional mergand pe ideea ta, pe care o impartaseam la un moment dat, am creat chiar si topicul Suggestion to make rank-up more difficult -- intrucat, pe vremea aceea, chiar mi se parea ca se avanseaza prea usor. Acest topic a venit in continuarea altuia, numit Reducing (removing) airdropped merits for those who didn't earn 1 single merit.

Si totusi, acum, privind in urma, imi dau seama ca nu am avut dreptate. Si, referitor la ideea ca iti trebuie prea putin efort pentru avansare, nici tie nu-ti mai pot da dreptate. Timpul a trecut, acum am alta viziune... Insa atunci chiar asa credeam. Si, ce m-a facut sa imi schimb opinia este urmatorul lucru:
- avem 3.500.000 utilizatori inregistrati pe forum
- conform bpip, pentru a intra in topul primilor 1000 utilizatori cu cele mai multe merite castigate, iti trebuie 202 merite (acum cateva luni fusesem socat, ca intrai in Top 1000 cu 150-si-ceva de merite; intre timp a mai crescut un pic stacheta). Cu alte cuvinte, doar o mie de insi, din trei milioane si jumatate, au reusit sa castige 200 de merite. Prin prisma acestei statistici, am ajuns, in timp, la concluzia, ca meritele chiar se obtin greu.

Greseala mea din trecut, care m-a indemnat sa scriu acel topic, a fost ca am privit sistemul de promovare prin prisma mea. Cel mai probabil si tu faci la fel. Sunt unii oameni pe aici care pot obtine merite cu usurinta. Si chiar o fac. Insa pentru restul, de peste trei milioane, e foarte greu. Si bpip nu minte...

Mai mult, vrei sa iti zic ceva si mai tare? Stiai ca esti abia al doilea roman care va atinge (peste aproximativ 108 zile) rangul de Hero, pornind de la 0 merite? Si, daca vei continua tot asa, vei ajunge abia al doilea roman care va deveni Legendary, pornind de la 0 merite? Si ca esti tot abia al doilea care a ajuns Sr. Member pornind de la 0 merite? Si, daca nu ma insel, abia al treilea roman care a ajuns Full Member pornind de la 0 merite? Stiai lucrurile astea...? (Tot repet partea asta cu "pornind de la 0 merite -- in caz ca nu stiai, meritele s-au introdus in ianuarie 2018; cei care aveau un anumit rang atunci au primit un airdrop de merite in conformitate cu rangul ocupat.)

Si, daca vrei sa iti faci o idee si mai clara, urmareste acest topic al lui Ddmr², pentru a vedea cat de putini utilizatori reusesc sa promoveze la rangurile de Hero si Legendary...

Asa ca, desi tie nu ti se pare ca faci un efort prea mare, pentru cei mai multi dintre restul utilizatorilor efortul este enorm.

Nu stiu daca esti la curent cu concursul [Voting 2022]Bitcointalk Community Awards 🏆. Aditional acestui concurs, icopress si cu mine am creat al topic, cu un chestionar ([Quiz 2022] History of Bitcoin and Bitcointalk 🚩). Chestionarul este destul de greu, dar nu asta e ideea. Le-am oferit insa merite tuturor celor care au participat acolo. Pentru unii a fost, poate, primul si singurul merit primit... Da, poate ca unii au completat special chestionarul, pentru a obtine un merit, dar nu conteaza nici asta; sunt sigur ca omul acela a invatat ceva, asa ca m-am bucurat ca-i pot acorda 1 merit pentru "efort". Si, in afara topicurilor, destul de rare, in care se ofera merite pentru diverse postari, in rest, tare greu se obtin... Repet: ma refer la majoritatea utilizatorilor, nu la tine

Asa este, bine punctat, NeuroticFish. Intre timp a postat deja si 1miau o explicatie. IntimitateG, nu trebuie sa ne ferim de caramizi de text, cat timp ele arata lucrate intr-un mod decent si cat timp exprima o idee coerenta. Regula lui 1miau se refera strict la aceia care scriu blocuri de text, fara nicio noima, pentru a parea ca scriu mult, astfel incat sa le fie aprobate postarile de catre niste manageri de campanie incompetenti, care nici macar nu se obosesc sa vada ca postarile acelea, in sine, sunt o mizerie.

---

=)))))))))))

Si, ca tot vorbeam de postari lungi (pe langa aceasta), mi-am amintit de niste discutii pe care le-am avut aici cu patronul unei case de schimb valutar crypto ([1], [2]), care incerca el sa faca pe desteptul si sa ne arate el noua cum, fara aceste case de schimb, BTC s-ar fi dus de rapa. I-am scris multe acolo, blocuri intregi de text, pana ce, intr-un final, a dat bir cu fugitii si nici ca l-am mai prins punand piciorul aici pe forum. Insa daca vei citi acele materiale, vei vedea ca am structurat cumva respectivele blocuri de text, astfel incat sa fie citete...

---

Si tot apropo de asta, te vad foarte concentrat pe intimitate Imi amintesti de un utilizator roman, care a plecat de aici, din pacate - 20kevin20. NeuroticFish, tie nu iti aminteste de kevin?

And where is your result?

And where is your result?

It's okay, I am sure you learned a lot from this quiz. Let me help you post the image of your result, since your account does not allow you.

Congrats! Let me help you post the image of your result, since your account does not allow you.

Dap, concursurile sunt foarte tari. Si mi se pare normal ca, pentru asa premii, sa fie si reguli mai aparte... In fond, vorbim de niste monede Lealana oferite chiat de cel care "bate moneda", adica smoothie...

Una peste alta, la primul concurs nu am cum sa ma inscriu, nedetinand nicio moneda Lealana (spre tristetea mea), dar, cu siguranta, ma voi in scrie la al doilea! 

Intre timp, vad ca organizatorul a venit si cu o propunere noua:

---

Whoop whoop! Am castigat amandoi! Felicitari noua 

Referitor la partea aceasta:


cum ai de gand sa procedezi? Intreb de curiozitate... Eu inclin spre a-i spune sa ii dea premiul meu lui MJ, pentru a mi-l trimite acesta.

Okay, let the baws handle this

Being serious now, as far as I understood, the situation is the following:

- fillippone nominated mendace and mendace gave him a merit
- fillippone did not nominate icopress and icopress gave him a merit.

As far as I see the situation, the result is the following:
- fillippone's vote for mendace, will not be counted, because of the merit mendace sent to fillippone
- in case fillippone will change his vote (in the amount of time the contest will allow him to do it) and he will nominate icopress at a category, then this vote will also not be counted.

---

I guess this is one of a kind contest, where even the organizer receives a (potential) penalty, but since we are on a forum which is so harsh that even Satoshi has been banned, when can we expect?

---

I am sorry, but the rules were stated from the very beginning... Anyway, at least, now you know them Don't worry too much though, it's just one vote uncounted.

I am sure you did As it also happened with all the others which filled the quiz.

Here, let me help you as well with posting the full image of your result, as your rank does not allow you to do it:



Keep them coming, boys Let's see if we can have, during current contest, more answers to this quiz than at previous contests!

I'll send you a PM with the answer and the story of that hacker. I will do this by PM, in order to not spoil others' surprise, okay?

Here, let me help you have that image posted properly, as your rank does not allow you yet:

Toate acestea le observ si eu. In toata media - radio, televizor, ziare, site-uri web. Mai toata lumea practica romgleza. E "cool" marfa, nu? Dar lumea nu mai foloseste nici macar expresia asta penala "e marfa" (care, oricum, nu are niciun sens din punct de vedere logic), ci prefera "e cool" sau "e trendy".

In reclame la diverse site-uri aud mereu: "intra pe veveve blabla punct ro". Oare e atat de greu sa pronunte "intra pe dubluve dubluve dubluve blabla punct ro"? Si tot asa.

La serviciu multi imi spuneau, intr-o vreme, "grammar Nazi". Apoi, unul mai "destept" s-a trezit el sa-mi explice mie cum ca asa progreseaza limba, care e intr-o continua schimbare. I-am spus ca, in realitate, asa regreseaza limba, din cauza unor analfabeti ca el. Nu stiu de ce, dar de atunci nu mi-a mai vorbit.

Avea oare sens sa-i spun si ca, in mod normal, dupa punctul unei propozitii trebuie puse doua spatii -- asa cum faci tu, IntimitateG, asa cum facea chiar si Satoshi? Avea oare sens sa-i spun asta unuia care, in loc de "a avea sens" spunea ca "face sens"? (Si da, spre rusinea mea, eu nu folosesc dubla spatiere, desi cunosc aceasta regula. Cum nu folosesc nici diacriticile, tot spre rusinea mea. Insa, macar, eu cunosc niste reguli de ortografie, ortoepie si punctuatie -- si aleg, uneori, deliberat, sa le ignor -- in vreme ce cel mentionat mai sus, alaturi de alte cateva milioane de romani habar n-au despre asa ceva, nestiind nici macar cum sa-si scrie corect numele.)

Eu nu zic ca ar trebui sa fie traducerea in romana sub cea din engleza. Pana la urma, suntem in Romania, nici nu exista notiunea de "traducere in romana" Ci de scriere a meniului in romana. Urmata, apoi de o traducere in engleza. Eu unul, cand am mai depasit plaiurile mioritice, nu am vazut nicaieri meniuri doar in engleza si nu si in limba locala. Titlurile din limba locala erau primele, urmate de traducerea in engleza. Dar, ca la noi la nimeni... Punem meniuri in engleza fara a le avea, in primul rand, in romana!


Din ce cunosc, substantivele proprii nu trebuie traduse, ci folosite ca atare. De pilda, daca il intalnesti pe un strain numit John, nu te apuci sa-i spui Ion, desi acesta ar fi echivalentul romanesc al lui John. Similar si pentru numele de bauturi alcoolice sau alte substantive proprii.

---

Adevarat.

Ca idee, in caz ca nu stiai, acest topic este ca o parte a doua a acestuia: Campanie pentru îmbunătățirea calității postărilor. Iar topic-ul campaniei este o traducere a acestuia: Campaign to improve posting quality for local boards. Campania a fost demarata de 1miau, in parteneriat cu mine, amandoi traducand topic-ul din sectiunea internationala in germana, respectiv romana.

Acum, ca tot ti-am explicat si originea acestei campanii, sper sa nu te superi pe mine, stimata IntimitateG, pentru ca te-am dat exemplu in topic-ul international. Stai fara grija, te-am dat exemplu de "asa da"

P.S.: sper ca te bucura (sau, macar, amuza) faptul ca iti scriu, in continuare, numele intre tt /tt

Sincere congrats to CoinEraser for joining "the white side of Force"! His support for this campaign, together with his own struggle for bettering himself, is even more important, as it comes from a very old user of the forum, which joined in 2012! I take my hat off in front of that!

Excepting him I would also like to point out that Romanian board's reaction toward this initiative was to embrace it. Indeed, Romanian section is not too populated but still, I, myself was with 1miau since he first expressed this idea to me. Very soon after the campaign was launched inside Romanian board, NeuroticFish, which is another valuable forum member, expressed his support. Furthermore, he also said that he is not just supporting the idea, but he will also try to better himself as well.

Time passed and recently another Romanian user joined this campaign. The surprise was huge, as we did not even know him, as he never posted before inside Romanian board. But, most important, his very first post inside Romanian board was made in this campaign's thread! Furthermore, I also discovered that PrivacyG, as this is his nym, is also a new era Sr. Member, which already earned enough merits to be Hero, with months before reaching the necessary activity. Chapeau to that!


Maybe, especially after the news I brought above, the outcome is more satisfactory that we thought, my dear 1miau. Indeed, some opposed (and still oppose) our campaign, for reasons which are beyoind my capacity of understanding. And I am certain they do not feel guilty, no matter you mentioned that. Nor they'll ever feel guilty.

However, what I wanted to say about the results being -- maybe -- more satisfactory than we believe is the fact that, as PrivacyG appeared out of nowhere inside our board and started advocating for a better Romanian, without Romglish, the same may happen, without our knowledge, in other boards too. The fact that we don't know about other users which may have been motivated by this campaign does not necessarily mean they do not exist...

I will end here, by translating PrivacyG's post (highlight is mine).

La asta ma gandisem si eu, insa mai trageam de doi bani speranta (pana sa vad ultima ta propozitie, cel putin).


Adica asta^.

Si da, nici eu nu ma uitasem acolo. Acum e clar insa, jetoanele nu sunt incarcate, dar nu-i bai. Sunt frumoase oricum Daca e sa castig le adaug la colectia de "suveniruri de pe forum", care mai numara o moneda BTC si una DOGE.

Era chiar tare sa iasa 1 castigator si te acuz pe tine ca nu am castigat eu =)))


Incerc azi-maine sa imi pun si eu ordine in ganduri si sa imi aleg favoritii in concurs, astfel incat sa fiu eligibil sa inca o pozitie in tombola. Am fost foarte prins zilele astea... dar imi dau straduinta. Multa bafta!

---

Merci, m-am inscris! Nu vazusem concursul la timp, asa ca, inca o data, se vede utilitatea acestui topic


Tot asta inteleg si eu, desi organizatorul se exprima cam alandala...


Pai... eu unul sunt bulversat un pic... daca jetoanele au denominari de 0.0075 / 0.0025 BTC, de ce e clar ca nu contin BTC...? Din punctul meu de vedere, din contra, contin BTC. M-am tot uitat la poza concursului, chiar si cu zoom, dar nu imi pot da seama, din ce vad acolo, daca jetoanele sunt incarcate cu BTC sau nu, intrucat au hologramele acelea peste ele...

---

Okay.

Hehe, we were both right, each of us about what he was talking about But it seems I did not understand at first sight what you meant. Indeed, there are 34 users within the range of 3000-3999 merits. True. Well, it's a select club isn't it? But the one cygan is close to enter now (4000-4999) is even more select, as it has now only 20 members -- 21 with him.

---

Good luck, cygan! I am more than certain that you'll obtain this achievement before the year ends. You are only 55 merits away from 4000 threshold and in no time you'll be there Congrats, in advance, for reaching this milestone!

02 - GazetaBitcoin

Thank you, OP!

Am umflat si eu numarul, sa parem mai multi Sa nu spuna omul ca aici (chiar) e sat fara caini hihi.


Pruteanu nu era inghitit mai de nimeni, inclusiv de mine. Avea pe vremuri o emisiune - Doar o vorba sa-ti mai spun. Cumva, se intampla ca mai mereu sa fiu acasa cand se difuza emisiunea aceea. Si, de la antipatia pe care mi-o provoca initial, ascultandu-i emisiunile, am inceput sa-l simpatizez. Nici macar nu pot spune ca le ascultam in mod deliberat. Poate ca faceam ceva prin casa, iar TV-ul era pe programul unde se difuza emisiunea... Incet-incet, am inceput sa realizez ca omul acela (fie-i tarana usoara), nu facea nimic altceva decat o incercare de a ne culturaliza pe toti si de a ne invata propria noastra limba... In timp ajunsesem chiar sa-i urmaresc cu placere emisiunea... Vremuri...


Cine stie... Apropo, vad ca ai preluat si tu modul de a-i scrie numele -- asa, cu caracterele acelea mai speciale de la BBCode-ul tt /tt. Arata mai aparte asa Intimitatea noastra


Mai bag aici 2-3 spoilere (desi se pot citi toate postarile de pe pagina aceasta -- toate spoilerele fiind de pe aceeasi pagina ).

[1], [2], [3].

Thank you both for your nice words and for the encouragement When I earned my first merit, in October 2019, I did not imagine I'll get here. Yet here I am


Actually, this is not totally correct... there are more than 34 members with 3000 merits. According to bpip, there are 56 users with 3000 earned merits (I am on 56th position right now) and 75 with 3000 merits -- so 3000 merits including airdrops (I am on 75th position). Still they are not very many, just a bit more than the 34 you mentioned


May it be so

In primul rand, bine ai venit printre noim IntimitateG! Nici nu stiam ca esti roman (Acum stau sa ma intreb cati romani mai frecventeaza, oare, acest forum, fara a scrie vreodata in sectiunea noastra, deci fara a sti cineva ca sunt romani...?)


Tare asta! =)))))


Eu unul sper ca acesta sa fie doar un inceput si sa te vedem tot mai prezent pe aici. Din pacate, in prezent, in sectiunea romaneasca sunt activi cel mult 5 utilizatori... Cu tine, am ajunge la 6.


Nu stiu ce sa zic, insa afluxul acesta de engleza combinata cu romana este toxic si se inrautateste pe masura ce trece timpul... Nu stiu cum poate fi oprit. Poate doar cu cat mai multe initiative de genul sau cu cat mai multi "Pruteni"... Cert este ca, daca continuam asa, copiii si nepotii nostri cu siguranta nu vor mai (re)cunoaste limba noastra, asa cum este ea in realitate...


E foarte frumos modul acesta de incheiere! Acum insa, sa stii ca nu este musai sa pui aceasta formula la fiecare postare. Fiind pe forum, se vede cine a postat. Dar procedeaza asa cum te simti tu mai bine

---

Din ce stiu, unele cuvinte sunt chiar intraductibile... Cele de genul se folosesc ca atare, nu avem ce face...


Depinde din ce perspectiva privim... Este posibil ca IntimitateaG sa nu fie doar un substantiv de gen feminin, ci si o persoana de sex feminin -- caz in care se schimba datele problemei

---

Partea asta imi aminteste de activitatile din cadrul clubului celor care recicleaza merite =))) NeuroticFish stie la ce ma refer. Daca vrei sa te distrezi, cand ai timp, citeste toate cele 60 de pagini ale acestui topic.

Spoiler alert: [1]. [2].



Asa sa fie

Whoop whoop! It seems that cycling merits like a pro as a Jr. Executive Cycler finally pays off


Thank you for the screenshot and for the nice words, my friend! I also noticed yesterday evening that I reached this round number and I was very happy, especially because, if I remember well, I missed the 2000th merit and I also lost most of round numbers from 100 to 999 merits. I took a screenshot yesterday, planning to post it here today, as it was very late when I noticed the new achievement, but it seems you were ahead of me! Thanks again for this nice surprise 


Yes, and let's hope it won't take 4000 years to get there

Welcome, as always

---

Yup, I noticed. And I also observed that you also grouped Legacy and Multisig addresses under same "class", in the upper side of the table. Indeed, the table looks much better by having the addresses separated by their "class".

And, of course (after fighting again, like a true gladiator, with BBCode's "_"s) I also added the changes to translated topic.

---

Anytime, glad I could help! If I spot anything else, I'll let you know
