How exactly is this payable in BTC? You're only offering payment in your worthless tokens.

I keep getting messages saying Error 504: Gateway Timed Out whenever I try to load most pages, and when pages do load, it is extremely slow. All other websites are loading normally for me. Is this an issue on my end only, or are other people experiencing this?

Based on your logic, zazarb should be entitled to ask you for more in re-payment whenever the price of BTC drops following the initial loan. After all, he lent you a certain value in USD and is getting a lower value in USD returned to him. It doesn't look like you were complaining when that was the case though. If you wanted a loan denominated in USD or another fiat currency, you should have added that to the terms. You knew Bitcoin was volatile, yet deliberately avoided repayment in the hope that the price would drop. It is now almost an entire year after you first entered into this agreement and you still haven't even repaid the principle. Zazarb has been more than lenient by waiting until now to publicly call you out on this. I will remove my feedback once this issue has been resolved to the lender's satisfaction.

Oh my, this will actually the perfect gift for a friend of mine haha. Can I reserve a M/L? Need to ask him what size he'd prefer. Will be buying 1 large if still available.

Would it be possible to get some other people who are owed tokens to post in this thread? Looking at the ETN bounty thread, it seems a large number of claims were paid out on January 26th. I'd like to know if this is still a widespread issue before tagging someone with a solid reputation. That being said, campaign managers should be held responsible for the campaigns they choose to associate themselves with. There is no risk to staking this reputation if they won't be held accountable.


Can you please post some proof of this?

Yes, that is correct. However, I believe his question was in response to seeing that other users were receiving negative trust from members such as The Pharmacist and actmyname for "shit-posting", and the purpose of making this thread was to understand what that means so he can avoid it. My point is that a lot of junk posts are "junk" because they are intentionally lengthened with filler sentences to meet minimum character requirements. There is nothing inherently wrong or "junk" about a one line response as long as it is constructive to the discussion, you just won't be paid for doing so.

I was addressing the OP. I don't think you could have made yours much shorter (and it didn't need to be). Added quote for clarity.

This is a great example of a junk answer. Although it appears quite long, you could've expressed the same thoughts much more concisely. Unfortunately, excessive verbosity such as this seems to be the trend since advertisers started requiring a minimum number of characters for posts to be paid.

I agree with you, I brought this up about a month ago here.

While self-moderation has the benefits Jet Cash mentioned, it is almost exclusively used to curate feedback and scam other users. I think one possible solution would be to restrict the self-moderation ability to only Members+, as this would at least stop the most flagrant abuse. Something also needs to be done about auto-buy links (selly, rocketr, etc.), these are just as much a plague in the Digital Goods section.

I sincerely hope someone launches a Dedit token as well.

Updated through today as far as I can tell. I am not sure if users have posted applications in local sub-forums, but if you know of any, please link them for me

Are you referring to paid signature advertisements or the forum placed ad in each thread? You can disable signatures in user settings, which will pretty much eliminate most advertising. As for forum ads, hero members have the option to disable those, although they really aren't that intrusive to begin with.

No problem, happy to help. I'm not entirely sure if you can embed images in text like with MS Word, but you can at least center them using


to make things look a bit neater. Lesson 3 of the BBCode guide might also be helpful, tables can clean things up pretty nicely.

Selling merit, just like scamming, is not a bannable offense. That being said, it is untrustworthy, so I'll probably tag his account with negative trust.  Unfortunately, it is most likely just one of his many alts. It would be great if you could play dumb and ask him to prove he can distribute merit as he claims. Ask him to give the account he PM'd you with a certain number of merit (10+) and see if he does so. Then I'd be able to tag his other accounts as well.

Sorry to rain on your parade, but unless another member of DT-1 excludes him as well, he will still be in DT-2.

Haha, I'd probably be out by the end of the week given the current state of the forums.

Yeah, but you can demerit stupidity 

They really need to add negative merit to this forum...
