2501  Other / Meta / Re: [TOP-200] The most generous users giving merits on: March 09, 2022, 07:22:33 PM
That's an interesting way of framing the matter, Falconer...   In other words, this whole thread was not really created in order to figure out "how generous" a member might be, but instead to attempt to identify merit source members and to attempt to decipher if they are generous within their allocated source amounts - to the extent that needed to be inferred rather than known directly
I think that's right, identifying the merit source is the goal of this thread its not just about generosity.

sometimes it is not an easy task. .and sometimes I am even bit in the butt with my tending NOT to send too many smerits per post.. I used to be only within 1-3 smerits per post then I moved up to 1-5 but still rarely go beyond 3 smerits in a post.   It might be my own handicap that I need to overcome.
For a merit source like you, I don't think 2-5 merit per post is a problem especially when you find quality posts from low ranked users or users who still need merit to rank up. Of course sometimes not an easy task especially if the merit source is inactive on many different boards, it will only save their resource amount to spend especially if 1-3 merit per post is a habit.

I agree if you want to change your merit distribution habit to be bigger, as I said 2-5 merits per post seems quite helpful for users who need merit to rank up.

It's too hard to guess from here. They still have to go through several stages for the final. But so far for Sporting I think they will pass again easily. Win five goals in the first leg was a great result. I think they've qualified for the next round. Then for the next round there will still be a draw of the quarter-finals. Lucky for Man City if they meet opponents from the likes of Inter, Juve, Benfica, or Ajax it looks like they are still ahead and can win, but for teams other than that maybe they will be even more difficult.
Inter failed in the Champions League this season where Liverpool had won tickets to the quarter-finals yesterday. Liverpool lost 0-1 at home, but Inter failed to reach the quarter-finals as Liverpool won on aggregate.

It's hard to say that Manchester City can win their first Champions League title of the season, but if they reach the final then anything is possible. Guardiola is certainly looking forward to the Champions League title with Manchester City because in recent years they have been at such a high level of performance that the failure of the previous final should be a lesson to be learned to win it in the future (perhaps this season if they get to the final).

2 matches will start in the next 1 hour. I'm interested in Real Madrid vs PSG because Manchester City will only play a consolation match after winning 5 goals in the first leg. 1-1 from me for this match.

Bayern Munich will win easily, because Salzburg is not a balanced opponent for Bayern Munich. Thomas Muller and friends will not make mistakes like when they played in the first leg.
The Allianz Arena is the most haunted stadium for the visiting a team, not many teams have been able to bring home the victory from the Allianz Arena. Some time ago Barcelona had felted how difficult it was to find a victory at a home to Bayern Munich, they were humiliated by a score of 3-0.
Bayern Munchen and Liverpool have the opportunity to win today in their respective second leg matches. These two home teams look much more favored to qualify even though Bayern Munich failed to win in the first leg.

Inter who will travel to Liverpool will also not get much attention about the possibility of getting up and qualifying for the next round. Inter lost 0-2 at home and it will be increasingly difficult to expect them to score 3 goals without reply at Liverpool later. Maybe Inter could have won, but they didn't qualify. Liverpool and Bayern munchen will most likely advance to the next round without hesitation.

Seperti permintaan Perdana Menteri Ukraina Mykhailo Fedorov untuk memblokir seluruh dompet digotal yang dimiliki user dari Rusia bukan faktor utama penurunan. Bahkan dia memberikan peryataan bahwa mereka akan memberikan hadiah bagi orang yang tahu dompet yang di miliki oleh politisi Rusia dan belarusia.
LOL, itu adalah permintaan yang tidak masuk akal menurut ane dan tidak seharusnya mereka ingin men-sentralisasikan prinsip bitcoin dengan keinginan mereka serta mengharapkan lebih banyak rasa iba datang untuk mereka setelah sepakbola telah masuk ke ranah politik akibat perang Ukraina - Rusia.

Trend turun untuk harga bitcoin tahun ini sepertinya bakalan berlangsung lama mengingat sekarang sudah masuk bulan ke 3 harganya tidak lagi pulih diatas $50K sejak Desember 2021. Untuk kembali ke $69K atau mencetak ATH baru tampaknya bakalan sulit untuk diharapkan karena FUD dan berita sangat mempengaruhi trader atau beberapa investor. Ane mulai berpikir bahwa trend turun ini akan berlanjut hingga halving selanjutnya. Harga tertinggi bulan Maret adalah $45K, tapi sekarang sudah turun ke $38K lagi.

Athletic bilbao easy victory from Levante can be used as a capital when they face Real Betis on week 28. Real Betis themselves is in pain after being humiliated by Atletico Madrid 1-3 at a home.
The match against Real Betis is certainly very tough for Athletic bilbao, because their performance is not consistent. Real Betis itself is struggling to maintain its position in the top 4, because after losing to Atletico Madrid, they were thrown into 5th place.
That's the reason why a team like Real Betis can't always be seeded to stay in the top 4 because they can't always maintain their best performance against top teams. Real Betis have lost more often and at the moment the performance is not as good as before and easier to beat, so Barcelona and Atletico Madrid managed to take over the 3rd and 4th place from them.

The competition is still going on for the next 11 match but I think Real Betis will no longer be able to get into the top 4 as Atletico Madrid and Barcelona are more expected to maintain their best form for the rest of the season.
2506  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2021/2022 on: March 08, 2022, 04:33:16 AM
Tottenham and Manchester United are the most unstable teams of the season. If these two teams were able to maintain the continuity of performance, they would definitely be in the top 4 of the table. Manchester United will move to sixth or seventh place in the table in a few days. They have scored only 47 points in 28 matches. Arsenal scored 48 points in 25 matches. I wouldn't be surprised to see Arsenal in third place on the table.
Tottenham and Arsenal are still likely to be in the top 4 before the end of this season and maybe only Arsenal are the favorites compared to the two. Tottenham were very unstable but 5-0 was a big win for them against Everton. I thought they drew this game but in the end they won over Everton by an unpredictable number of goals.

I tend to believe that Arsenal will be safe in 4th place until the end of the season compared to Tottenham. If Arsenal can maintain their best form in the next 13 match then they will certainly qualify for the Champions League with Chelsea, Liverpool and Manchester City next season.

Yep. PSG have done their best efforts to keep Mbappe. Now, it depends on Mbappe's decision, what Mbappe prefers for his future career. I'm sure Mbappe won't make a decision based on the salary only, he must consider what he can achieve if he stays or leaves. In some cases, a superstar or a top player prefers to choose a club because that club has a great achievement history in football. He knows if money isn't everything, a career must be the priority for a professional player.
I believe Mbappe will most likely go to one of the Spanish teams where it seems Real Madrid are at the forefront of getting his signature. Real Madrid have a long history of success in various competitions both domestically and in Europe and Mbappe may be interested in Real Madrid for a future club goal in his career.

PSG have tried their best to keep Mbappe but in the end I agree that Mbappe will make a big decision for his career and it seems he is ready to leave PSG next season. He is still young enough and has the qualities to be the best player in the world in the coming seasons. With Real Madrid he can make it happen, but it is not impossible that he can also be brought in by other teams besides Real Madrid.
2508  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽UEFA Champions League Discussion Thread -- 2021/22 Round of 16! on: March 07, 2022, 07:21:15 PM
Actually, I think that maybe PSG might end up being hesitant whether to defend or to attack in this match because they have a lead. Even though it's not too comforting but they still do have a lead and I think Real Madrid will play this very attacking. But I don't know about PSG because with their squad they should not be afraid of anything but with their form, well, that's another story.
There is no plausible reason to see PSG so eager to maintain their 1 goal lead against Real Madrid in the second leg. Real Madrid can score more goals to bounce back and qualify for the next round so 1 goal is not a justifiable reason to stay.

PSG will have to score more goals in the second leg against Real Madrid if they are to qualify, but I believe Real Madrid will perform better than the first leg. We will not see Real Madrid just enjoying PSG's game in the second leg and maybe a total attacking strategy will be applied in this match by the coach. Unfortunately only one of these favorites will qualify, but PSG should be able to prove itself worthy of qualifying after bringing Messi back to Spain for the first time.

Honestly, until now I didn't know theymos meant anything apart from what the moniker was. I even thought it was an English coinage, comprising two words – "they mos(t)".  So, what about for those who aren't Indonesian; what difference does that mean? I think we're blowing this whole thing about random username out of proportion. Every username may mean something in other people's eyes apart from what the user intends it to mean. Do new people coming on here to register now have to check the meanings of the monikers they're choosing and then run a check on them to ascertain the monikers don't cross paths with any other here? I don't get it. The basic thing should be to watch those similar names if they intend to scam and then tag them when they do. There shouldn't be anything more to it. Usernames are just random names.
Yes, it might mean nothing to you and others who don't speak Indonesian, but to me it was a bit confusing. Honestly - I wouldn't and have someone else tag it just for that matter, but just wanted to hear suggestions if someone who speaks the same local language as you uses the same/ identical name as the staff or other users on the forum.

Sorry OP, I've spoiled your topic with different discussions a few times, but I believe your issue with Little Mouse10 should be resolved.
2510  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽UEFA Europa League Discussion Thread on: March 07, 2022, 06:53:41 PM
But why not a Spain vs Spain final? I think this will be actually great to see because Sevilla is doing really well in the league and if Barcelona can actually beat them we will be able to know what they are actually made of. I think it will also show if Barcelona can improve with the same Squad further into the future.
The final of the Spanish team may be expected in the Europa League this season considering that there are 3 strong teams that will still play their matches in the round of 16. Barcelona and Real Betis have been good enough so far to hope to qualify for the next round, but only Sevilla may be hard to predict.

Sevilla got a more difficult opponent in the last 16 where West Ham also looked quite difficult to beat. However, the Europa League has been dominated and won more by Spanish teams in the last decade, so one of the 3 teams currently has a chance to reach the final this season or maybe the Spanish final can also be expected. I hope Barcelona can reach the final of the Europa League this season.
2511  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1) on: March 06, 2022, 07:23:39 PM
I would assume that Messi just didn't like ligue 1 at all and doesn't understand how the defenses work here. I mean he is used to playing against teams like Real Madrid or City because he faced them, and in France if he was playing against PSG that would be even easier for him, all those teams and players he faced against when he was in Barcelona are still fine for him, but the general approach to the game by the French teams is not something he is very well aware.

He also shown everyone that this is more like retirement for him, sure PSG is still a great team but he just doesn't have that same fire in him as he did back in the day. Mbappe didn't even play, but he just wants to leave as well which makes the team a bit more boring as well. All in all I have to say that basically the team is lacking motivation for sure, it is so obvious.
The strategy adopted by most Ligue 1 teams is marking man where several players are placed to keep the opposing players tight so they don't qualify. In the Nice vs PSG match yesterday I saw this strategy adopted and used to make Messi unable to move freely where there are 3 to 4 players who are always ready to stop movement and acceleration on the field. In addition, the tackle or the strategy of dropping the opponent while dribbling the Nice coach also applied to Messi which made it difficult for Messi to control the ball longer at his feet.

Maybe it's true that Messi is not too happy playing at PSG because he is not the main star there. In addition, not all PSG players have the same qualities and understand what Messi wants, which makes it difficult for Messi to adapt well at PSG. The number of goals Messi has scored in Ligue 1 is meager, this is another proof why he is not developing or adapting well to other PSG players. I hope he can return to Barcelona soon if possible and he retires there as a Barcelona legend.

Yes Theymos and merekamo are double names when translated into Indonesian and when translated into English then look different. but Did I make a mistake? unless if I use a name like Theymos- Theymos1- Theymos2 . . . and then I abuse the Account then you have the right to tagged me.
Of course because your username is very identical to theymos if translated into Indonesian. I don't know what other people think of you, but I feel like you really confuse me about why you're using that name for.

Yes, it doesn't matter as long as you don't aim to resemble theymos or someone else in a different language. However, some names that are synonymous with staff, admin or someone in good standing here may not be liked even if you don't disclose what you intend to use the name for.
2513  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2021/2022 on: March 05, 2022, 06:42:20 PM
Aston Villa made 14 shots today, 9 of which were on target. Every attack of Aston Vila was very strong. The performance of Southampton's defenders was very poor. They could not resist the attacks of Aston Villa. But today I was expecting a better performance from Southampton. Southampton's performance was not good. I don't think they can be in the top 10 of the points table.
It seems Aston Villa are starting to have a good motivation to win the game. They have won 2 matches in a row where today was the 2nd win after a 0-2 win over Brighton. Coutinho recorded 1 assist and 1 goal in this match and that has seen him score 3 goals and 3 assists during his time at Aston Villa. Really it was a different performance he had compared to at Barcelona.

For other matches, Liverpool also looks very dominating today's match vs West Ham. Liverpool are currently 1 goal ahead of West Ham in the first half and could probably add to their lead in the second half which is now in the 55th minute. West Ham had chances to score but missed in the end and I think Liverpool should be aware of it during the second half . If Liverpool win, then 3 points is a fairly close distance to Manchester City in the standings.

So far I haven't found any references I can read from the feedback or negative tag you received and the ones you sent to all those profiles. I'm not sure if all of you have used the trust system in the right way because you guys differ on something that's not in the rules. But you only have a workaround to ignore that user (~) if you really don't trust them and report their posts for review by moderators if you find them inappropriate. Some of them may be banned if there is a death threat or something physically threatening, but the moderators will deal with it on a case by case basis.

I was just wondering what you thought of the nearly identical names when I enabled translation. theymos quite often translates to merekamo in Indonesian, while I found someone registering an account with the name merekamo. I barely recognize two users if I don't open the profile or try to see what's posted. Theymos and merekamo are double names or same name in Indonesian, is that something to be tagged or just ignored because everyone is free to choose their username??

Chelsea, Aston Villa, Brentford, Newcastle and Crystal Palace look set to win today's match. So far the teams I mentioned are leading the score in their respective ongoing matches and they are much more likely to win the match than their opponents.

Newcastle United seems quite interesting to discuss because I think they seem to have found a good rhythm for their game so far. The proof is that they have never lost in 7 consecutive matches in the Premier League (maybe 8 if they win or draw this match). It has further distanced them from the relegation zone at the moment and will probably enter the top 10 if they are able to maintain their form. There's been a nice change from Newcastle and they look really excited compared to the start of the season.
2517  Other / Meta / Re: What happened to the forum plagiarism rules? on: March 05, 2022, 04:02:32 PM
lovesmayfamilis, I guess you just need to give the mod a little time to handle your reports as I think all the reports you quoted in the OP are not a month old. I don't know how many plagiarism reports the mod hasn't dealt with so far regardless if it's from you or other contributors since february to now, but giving the mod a little time is a great option in this case. It's okay to complain especially since you want to know what the problem is, but I'm sure the mods will sort it out sooner or later if the breach was really done on purpose when they start dealing with report after report you make.

A permanent ban is a consequence if a user commits plagiarism on purpose regardless of whether the mod wants to block it immediately or sometime after they handle the report. I think you just have to be patient with it for now because the rules are still in effect and nothing has changed.

Ratimov, this is my first time posting here as well as submitting my application. So far I've earned 457/500 merit for being a Hero Member [maybe 7 months from now] and still need another 43 merit to qualify. If I qualify to do so in this thread then here is my application:

Rank: Sr Member
Current Merit: 457

I think Ratimov is intentionally ignoring your application because it looks like you forgot to read the rules before submitting the application. I see your application was ineligible earlier because you only had 457 merit then. But now it seems that you are qualified to expect Ratimov's help as it already has 478 merit.

I'd like to help you out with some merit, but will probably do so tomorrow or when I have time to review some of your post history. Good job _BlackStar, you will get what you want soon and I hope you have good patience to look forward to it. 7 months doesn't seem like a short time because waiting is something very boring.  Cheesy

Real Sociedad is a very tough opponent. Because they are in good form now. Considering the matches against Real Madrid, however, Real Madrid will be ahead. Yet there is no chance of underestimating the Real Sociedad team. They have played very well in the last two matches. However, since this is the home match of Real Madrid, I think the chances of Real Madrid winning this match are high.
Real Madrid will have a great chance to win that match tomorrow although Real Sociedad also look in good form. Sociedad are a tough team with a better defense than Atletico Madrid, Barcelona or Real Betis so far and maybe Real Madrid will have to struggle to score tomorrow.

The hosts' advantage will make Real Madrid the favorites for tomorrow's match, so Real Sociedad need not be afraid of their status. I might have expected a draw in that match, but it's hard to imagine Real Madrid failing to win.

I don't expect Sevilla to win the title. Because they also lost points against weaker teams. Fighting for the title must ensure points against the weaker team.
How about Barcelona, ​​do you believe Barcelona still has a chance to win the title this season?  Grin
