Just a heads up. Not sure if it's been already mentioned but your signature for senior members might look a bit weird on some computers:  Is it using non-standard characters? I'm using a standard non-modified English (US) installation of Windows XP SP3. Those are standard unicode symbols. As far as I know, this just means your ancient OSes don't have the glyphs for these characters in the font youre using. If you switch to a font which has these dice symbols, I'm pretty sure this issue will go away for you. |

-snip- Sorry, I found it. But still, you need to know how to read this code ... -snip- update smf_members set ID_POST_GROUP=21 where ID_POST_GROUP=8 and
activity>=775 and activity>=775+conv(substr(sha1(concat(ID_MEMBER,
secretSeed)), 1, 2), 16, 10); The required activity level per user is suitably random for betting, but anyone who can read my code (there are a few such people) will be able to exactly predict when someone will become Legendary, so I don't really recommend it. The problem is that we dont know what the "secretSeed" is, thus a proper prediction on the exact result in only available for those that have access to the full code. We just need to pay off some mod. Question is if that secretSeed is account specific or global. I think I saw that it was specific for each account (but I may be mistaken). |

I cant find any discussion on this...what is the go with:
"Your IP appears to be from the United States or another restricted jurisdiction. As a result, you will be limited to the free version of Primedice."
Thx
Edit: The above appears when i press deposit button...ie I can't deposit.
Luckybit has a warning like this, I'm thinking that you posted in the wrong thread. Primedice definitely has no such warning. |

How can I find out the acitivty needed for legendary for a certain account?
AFAIK, you can't. Just somewhere between 775 and 1030 activity. AFAIK you can, theymos said that atleast. Maybe only staff can look it up though. He actually explained that going to legendary is a random number between those values, he hashes a salt and someother stuff to calculate the value and everyone goes legendary at some unknown point in that range. Staff won't look it up (don't think they even can) cos it's supposed to be secret. |

So there is a guy trying to extort me for big money to release swcpoker.com. He has offered to sell it to me, then pointed it to a competitor, then offered to sell it to me again. I hate having to run to ICANN, but what else can i do when this guy is threatening the brand? This is what I'm dealing with today: [start from bottom IMO]

Got my first time payout  Anyway, question! Why I need to point the payout to address on bit-x, while you send them through normal transaction? What wwould happen if I changed it into my normal address? I think Bitx is trying to encourage those enrolled into the campaign to try out their trading platform as most won't bother if it is sent to their wallet. I'm not sure as to what will happen if it's changed to a normal one. I know one thing that would happen is that many more folks would be interested in their campaign. I, for one, wrote this off entirely when I realized all the onerous hoops they wanted us to jump through in order to do this contract work. I don't think I'm the only one who feels this way. To get payment signing up for bit-x is not a whole lot of work. I found it easy personally. Only thing I can see that might make some is another campaign that is one most of us know that is paying a tad more per post. But they are limited to 100 to. I don't want to be accused of derailing this thread, so I'll only say that there are (or at least were at last time I checked) serious privacy issues when trying to sign up for bit-x (telephone number). This has been discussed ad nauseam already, so I'll just leave it at that (unless there's ben some change, in which case I'm very interested in hearing about it). I don't want to inform that you can buy a google voice number for only 3 dollars or less (if the privacy is the problem). I'm not implying that the problems are insurmountable, only that they're onerous enough to cause me (and quite a few others, I think) to opt for another campaign with less issues. |

Hi! I'm using MultiBit and ran into a bit of a problem.
A few days ago I sent coins to another address from my MB wallet. After a few days of not getting there, I checked the transaction status and it said seen by 1 peer, pending, etc. I had set a fee of 0.0001 , but I think my connection went down after sending it and that's why that happened. After doing some research on this issue I decided to reset the blockchain data.
I just finished doing that, and now the pending transaction doesn't show up in the wallet's Transactions tab (so far so good), but the wallet appears empty ¿? zero coins! even after that failed transaction, there was some tiny amount of coins (0.0001518 or something).
How can I fix this?
If I were you I would take your backup of your private keys (you certainly have one, right?) and simply import that into a fresh wallet program (multibit or some other program) and that should be fine. You should be able to verify that your addresses still have your bitcoins by looking at a block explorer like blockchain.info. After that, it's just a matter of importing those keys into some fresh, unborked system and retrying the transaction. How you actually got borked is not really a question I can answer. |

HS, do you know about the thread for the new site? Here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=962440.0;topicseenI think that unless you're talking about the old sealswithclubs.eu then we're all kinda waiting for this thread to die at this point |

all the bitcoins i have i made the from playing poker started with freerolls and after collecting some chips started to grind it's better than faucets  Hourly freerolls for 50 chips (on the hour) at sealswithclubs were the glory days. I got a fair amount of my start in BTC that way too. |

The Navajo tried to copyright the word Navajo in the mid 70's but the court did not let them because the word was too common.
The only way to get into legal trouble is via the Indian Arts and Crafts Act which says you cannon claim something is 'Indian made', which Navajocoin is not. no one has or is claiming that this coin was made by the Navajo Nation.
There is no legal problem here.
Thanks Coindeath for giving insight into this matter. I'm glad to see folks beginning to reply to my comment in some way other than GTFO, which seemed to be the only voice earlier. I would only add to CoinDeath's comment that while something may be legally fine, ethics may add another layer to this. Consider that if Navajo nation attempted to copyright their name and were rejected by a US court what that implies about how they might feel about someone using the name without their permission. Perhaps the court will be on the side of the person using the name, but again I might ask: how can you say you are honoring someone if you are explicitly going against their wishes (ie, using a name they have tried to copyright without their permission). Please also understand I have no holdings in altcoins, I have no hidden motivation to spread FUD about your project. I merely am trying to highlight that if you really want to honor Navajos, I believe you should make a serious effort to try to find out what Navajo people opinons are. I also received a message from lab rat, it was respectful and I hope he can contribute to this topic? Thanks again to those who have responded with real, constructive comments rather than the embarrassing GTFO that I heard from others in this thread. |

Oh that's really fun. Thanks for adding that in. I was gonna say, haaaay, that secret algorithm seems to favor a certain someone with three letter username that starts with hui...but then I also realized that rainbot only runs when you're logged in and shit, I can't blame you if you've gotten a little reward for your troubles Thanks for the kind words! I usually tip rainbot more back than I get from her and donated lots on top since its a community thing so I think I'm fine  I still hope some generous people find the donate button on the pdstats site i think that rianbot is not fair there, i am playing there and active in chat also but never got any tip from rainbot, so it pays only to selective people again and again, so it would be great to make it transparent and fair distribution system with random selection of players. Because the api is public and open ( http://primedice.com/api/) you're free to code your own tipbot which runs according to the algorithm you prefer. hui hasn't disclosed the algo for rainbot but has offered some hints. I think it's not really fair to complain since rainbot is in no way official (as far as I know) and anyone can distribute tips as they see fit. |

You know, if this coin isn't actually affiliated with the Navajo nation I think you guys should really reconsider this name. I mean, given the history of european colonizers and American first peoples it really can be seen as quite offensive to steal the name of their nation and put it on a technology project which isn't in any way actually affiliated with the Navajo. That's just my opinion.
[quote Hi, we share the same sentiments about that, and I've pitched an idea To hashforce101 to involve the tribe. I think it's a good idea but of course The navajocoin foundation would have approve it. There are only a handful of code talkers Still alive. But we'll have to get over This cryptsy speedbump first. Things never work out as fast as planned, right? First things first I guess, let's get this show on the road This person is using a different method to create FUD.
At first I thought you were being sincere with your concerns/comment. But after digging through the thread history, I realized that you got an answer 30 minutes after you posted your concern initially a couple days ago. Maybe you missed it, but I am now with GREEDYJOHN and think you are trying to create FUD, especially given the timing. If I am wrong, I apologize. Your concerns have been noted and the Foundation will have to decide on appropriate actions to take once the storm settles. I think this topic was brought up months and months ago when we switched the name, but not exactly sure what the verdict/conclusion was ( not digging that far back). Anyways, I assure you, we (the community and devs) in no way want to disrespect the Navajo Nation and urge you to put this aside for now and buy some coins. :-) Cheers. Thanks for the positively toned reply. It so happens that I missed that reply (this thread seems to have a lot of traffic). I feel that I've said all I can about this and I leave it you and your community to decide where you want to go and what you want to do. |

rainbot stats (regularly updated)Since people asked I added a rainbot Top-200 here: http://pdstats.co.nf/rainbot-stats.htmlI also added it to the rainbot-faq. if you have suggestions, please let me know! Very cool, thanks for adding that in. It could be neat to see who are the most active chat users as chat message count is logged. done Oh that's really fun. Thanks for adding that in.

oh please no America history and political lesson here. Not all American here and it is crypto currency mean it is not control by any country and it is online currency. Please start own thread in off topic section maybe. Please focus on Navajocoin and it is future development. People please vote https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=985422.0Perhaps a positive and wonderful step in the development of NavajoCoin would be for the dev team to contact the Navajo and see if they want to be your partners: http://www.navajo-nsn.gov/I am not trolling you guys, I have simply brought up an imporant point, it's too bad the community here seems so set on missing the opportunity to take this in a positive direction. Are you sure you in the right forum? dude this is bitcoin forum. Why do developer have to contact USA gov? USA does not own the world. The government of the Navajo nation is not the government of the United States. Navajo Nation is a soverign nation. You guys say you wish to honor Navajo code talkers, why would you refuse to contact the Navajo nation and ask them what they think of this? I don't understand the negativity here. |

Okay, assuming no further replies from you all, I will not post here again.

Seriously pilot, get a life. The the coins name is NavajoCoin and it honors peoples sacrifice. The coin is not named NavajoTribeCoin or NavajoIndianCoin or ToHellWithTheNavajosCoin. Then it seems we would have a problem. Everyone knows the history of the american indian. It was wrong and tragic but it's history, hence in the past. The negro was grossly treated as well and enslaved, should we go over to the BlackCoin thread and start a similar conversation? We are glad you have taken your first law class but please try to understand the difference between political correctness and stupidity for the sake of being verbose. CryptoJohn, you are engaging with me so I post again here only to reply. Yet another facet of institutional racism is embodied in your message. I can put it succinctly: the Navajo nation is not "history", they are a currently living, vibrant, real people with a political and business structure and only they have the right to decide how their name is applied to business endeavours. I understand that the intention of this project is to do honor, yet to co-opt the name of a maligned people without asking them whether they want to be associated with your project is yet another incursion on their rights. Your example of the negro and the word black misses. "Black" is not the name of an indigenous Nation. "Navajo" is not a generic English adjective. You say that "everyone knows the story of the american indian", but is this true? Does everyone know that American Indian nations are not just "history" but are currently existing nations with the right to self-determination even now? Your own comments seem to suggest that you are not aware of this and/or you discount it in some way. |

3) We do not need to be tied down by imaginary rules and regulations
It's a shame (and embarrassing, IMO) that you consider ethics to be imaginary. Irishcoin is a good name too. And we would entertain no fantasies about have a property right in the name.
Your problem is that you know no history or much of anything else but have what Eric Hoffer decried as 'the passionate state of min.'
I suggest that the moderator block this pseudo-lieftie-political stuff.
I'm not sure why you want to drop some kind of ad-hominem attack on me about what history I might or might not know. All I can do is point to you to the external resources which might edify your state of mind. As they say, you can lead a horse to water... Since you (at least the two who bothered to reply) seeminly have no interest in discussing or rectifying what, prima facie, is a morally repugnant stance towards first nations and their rights, I'll leave off posting here with this reiterated warning: 1) You may not see cultural appropriation as problematic, but many people do, and that obviously will affect your bottom line in the long run. 2) Should you manage to gather any actual success in your project while ignoring the ethnocentrism and institutional racisim embodied in your project's name, you'll eventually have to face the fact that legally, only the Navajo nation has a right to call something Navajo (a quick google search turns up many such cases, here's a random one just to show you waht I mean: http://www.culturalsurvival.org/ourpublications/csq/article/protecting-american-indian-intellectual-property-twenty-first-century-th). Okay, assuming no further replies from you all, I will not post here again.

You guys never got back to me or answered about whether your coin has any official ties to the navajo nation. I really think that if it does not, you should reconsider the name for two reasons:
1) History of malignment from european colonizer society against first nations of Americas, this includes cultural appropriation without credit.
2) If your coin is actually successful in the long run you will eventually be sued for trademark/name infringement by the actual Navajos.
Just my opinion, I wonder why you guys don't reply to this point.
1) The ethnicity of the DEVELOPERS and USERS of NAVAJOCOIN are DIVERSE and IRRELEVANT I'm happy to hear that you're diverse however, it's hard to see how this is irrelevant. 2) We do not owe anybody an apology for choosing NAVAJO as our coin name.
When you steal the identity of a maligned population and having no actual association with them this is quite wrong. I'm not saying you have done this, yet, if you believe that you can call yourself Navajo without actually being a Navajo (some people are, some people aren't, this is a fact of a life), then I think you're missing a reality check. Again, my opinion. Imagine I start ENGLISHCOIN Then I go around doing things in this name. You say that the people of England have no interest or claim to my usage of the name of their nation? Now consider switching England (a powerful, first world country) out for a people who have been attacked, subjugated, had treaties broken, etc and still they exist today. Imagine that someone from the culture who maligned these people was now running around using their name for a project they have nothing to do with. I don't know whether this is the case but surely you can see how foolish it is to think you have a right to use the name of a People for a project which has nothing to do with them, and without even consulting. 3) We do not need to be tied down by imaginary rules and regulations
Is ethics and morals imaginary? Do you consider history to be irrelevant? My point is that if you consult with Navajo nation you might actually find a willing partner (who knows?). You might actually pay them honor (presumably this is your intention in using their name). However, if you steal without consulting then that surely is not honor. I hope you can think about this further. Perhaps look twice at the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples. http://www.un.org/esa/socdev/unpfii/documents/DRIPS_en.pdf |

This is what I was playing around with and I basically found it too frustrating to keep up with. Too many scamcoins and sillynesses and I just didn't have the time or energy or interest to try to figure out what was what. But for someone who's more connected to trends and keeps on top of that kinda stuff anyway it might indeed be a fun way to get started.
I think most would end up going batty attempting to trade alts. Apart from a few, the markets are too minute and are under the control of a handful of scum bags. Buying $1 of every coin on a market would end up paying off the same as spending every second running around the markets. Agree wholeheartedly. I gave up trying to follow that shit. I'm a happier person now |
