Problem is that outside of this forum 1xbit doesn't have a reputation of straight up scam so Coingecko and Mycelium probably don't think that they are doing anything wrong by allowing 1xbit to advertise there.
Sometimes you need to consider that ads are not placed specifying a service. If they are using service like Google AdSense then the ad network is sending the ads and they have no control over it. There are many ad networks not just Google AdSense. 1xbit spends millions of dollar in their advertising. So obviously ad networks are one of the choice for them.

Avatar features you will see once you qualify for 100 achievements.
Achievements here would mean merits I imagine. In that case, the feature would not be available after reaching 100 merits, except the user has already acquired 120 activity points to go along with it. I am putting this out there for users who may be confused with how the ranking system works.
To have avatar you will need to be full member of the forum and to become a full members you will require minimum 120 activity and minimum 100 merit. Don't get confused with the post number when you are counting activities.

you can only get 14 activity points every two week period
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2766177.0

In other words, no matter how many posts you make each day or week, only 14 posts will be added to your activity in every two weeks period. If you do not enjoy spending time on the forum then it is hard to rank up.

1xbit and Stake.com campaigns. However, I don't aim at any specific campaign here. It is probably more posters like that and matter is we did not detect them.
I have no idea how the 1xbit are conducting their signature campaign but Stake.com signature is designed to make more posts. They are encouraging users to post in gambling section. I don't want to bring the campaign manager name but this is clearly mentioned in their campaign thread.

In our campaign the more you post the higher your payment.. as long as you can keep a good posts quality.
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5400828.0

When someone is chasing for 100 (example number) posts a week then obviously there will be no quality but numbers.

The idea of posting shit and editing later is an idea only lazy pals will come up with.
It's old, too old LOL

Save or collect 0.01BTC and you are a Satoshi millionaire. Isn't it something to be proud of? 0.01BTC is still in reach of everyone.

I've encountered a number of such cases. They either didn't know they could buy fractions of Bitcoin or they were not used to buying fractions of an asset, so thought it's unprofitable, sort of like it would be unprofitable in the long run as they did not get a full stack.
Still there are people who think they will have to buy a whole bitcoin. I don't know how the psychology works but when you talk about bitcoin to someone and tell them the price they usually ask that's lot of money. Then you need to give another lecture, you can buy any amount of bitcoin anytime. Somewhere I read by 2030 there will be 1 billion bitcoin user. It seems reasonable to me 😉
2645  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Curious Question About Binance Frequent Update on: July 26, 2022, 06:27:01 PM
Sometimes, I get worried about it.
I don't think you should be worried about it at all. In fact it's good for you. If a thief who somehow got access of your email wants to reset account then he can not because he will be asked for 2FA. It means you have less risk to lose the funds unless Binance itself become the victim of any hack. One thing you need to ensure that you are not targeted by phishing link attackers.

Secondly, If I were to move all my coins from Binance, which exchange is the next best alternative?
You do not keep your coins in an exchange. You keep it there if you are for a quick exchange. Once the exchange is done then you move your coins to you own wallet. This is the safest.

And this is very fair, the only thing is we have not used their source code, that is what I was saying, not one bit of their backend was used. To automate playing on such casinos, you can use a written code such as martingale, which my developer used, this is also found online free to access, and that is what was briefly used, however, we understand they were not okay with it, and changed it immediately.
If bustadice does not have any problem then I do not see anyone else should have any problem.

I have not read all the posts from the reference thread but I feel this is too harsh to justify a project, before giving them a chance to defend. If we continue labeling new projects are scam then projects that are looking to build their brand around the community they will eventually lose interest from the forum. I hope we are not isolating us.

The members are free to leave whatever feedback they want but I think a neutral should be more than fine in the case.
2647  Economy / Gambling / Re: Alert: Bc Game scams! (banned for no reason) on: July 26, 2022, 06:00:21 PM
Hello, i got banned and now i cant withdrawal my commissions. And im not the only one. There was a rouge staff member trying to get “promotion”
By doing a good job banning account that have lots on commissions. Im not even able to withdraw the commissions.
“Saving the company money”, there is literally no support so if you get banned make sure not to waste your time with support because nobody will be willing to help you.
You needed to bring some reference to support your accusation. Perhaps the email that you have exchanged or chat with the support team. This will help others to analyze the conversation and make up something from it. Right now it's just some words that you left for everyone.

I hope it resolves anyway.
2648  Other / Meta / Re: Ignore account PM on: July 26, 2022, 12:01:25 PM
In that case, that means those members we send PMs to and they do not respond that it is them intentionally not wanting to respond to us. And not because we are placed in their ignore list. That is bad behavior.
It seems someone is thinking he has earned the ticket to ignore any questionable questions when anyone ask them. Anyway, I will have a topic about it since they are not interested to respond the PM. I am guessing one other member have similar questions, they can join the topic too. I need to find some time for it.
2649  Other / Meta / Re: adding avatar picture to profile on: July 24, 2022, 07:43:33 PM
Oh ok, I understand. Thanks to everyone.
Is this a personal account or you are representing any company? If it's personal account them it's better you stay active and work to rank up but if this is on behalf of a project or company then as mentioned you can buy copper membership. This page should show you how much to pay for it. It will not be much expensive.
2650  Other / Meta / Re: Ban Appeal For naim027. on: July 24, 2022, 04:34:24 PM
I mean, how? I've never accused anyone? I was surprised to learn that trust settings could be changed even after being banned! And I made it clear to theymos that if this is permitted, the DT system will be manipulated by enraged banned users! Lady!
Nooooooooooooooooo! I think it's your 2nd time 😉

Anyway, I accept your words. But it looked to me you were using him as an example of tempering the system in a negative manner. Don't take me wrong. It's annoying to read negative arguments especially when someone act like a tax collector and start auditing how much monthly income the account was making.
2651  Other / Meta / Re: Ban Appeal For naim027. on: July 24, 2022, 02:44:22 PM
I mean, he's still adjusting his trust settings, and he excluded Timelord2026 from his trust system via his banned account a few weeks ago for being against him! That is "tempered," right?
Adjusting trust setting is completely fine there are nothing to accuse one for it. If this was the case then anyone when add-remove someone then everyone should start to find the reason and starts to accuse them for nothing.

Quote
temper can also refer to one's mood in general; if you use the word in this sense, you might describe someone's temper as "angry" or "mild."
Your use of "tampered" was clearly indicating the mood. In other words you were accusing him for adjusting his trust setting. Was it necessary?

A user is here to get his banned account back. He is trying to convince the people who can help him to unban the account but some of you are so negatively attacking that it sounds like you want no one in the forum have their place other than some scam busters.
2652  Other / Meta / Re: Ignore account PM on: July 24, 2022, 02:19:57 PM
I just did a quick test, and yes; You would get a PM from a member you put on ignore, and so a user who ignored you would also get your personal message.

They would also get an email notification of the message. This would mean, the ignore user option only blocks the user from your posts and not PMs.
I needed this confirmation, thanks brother. Algorithmically I was expecting it too.

Correct, the administrator Theymos when making that ignore button only had the idea of ignoring a member's posts in a topic you are reading, and not to completely ignore the member or whipe them completely from your sight, it should be called an "ignore member's post" button, until the administrator changes how it works.
If I am not wrong then ignore is a default feature of SMF or an additional extension of it. I believe Theymos did not customize it at all.
2653  Other / Meta / Re: Ban Appeal For naim027. on: July 24, 2022, 02:12:52 PM
The system will be tampered with, just as naim027 did with Timelord2026.
I hope I did not get you wrong. Why do you think by tilde a user naim027 tampered the system?  

Those users won't be missed by anyone.
It's exactly the reason I said if a user was shitposter and would not have any contribution then I would not show him a mercy good faith (I think mercy is a wrong choice of word which I used earlier).

naim027, have you requested hilariousandco to check your case? He is one of the most active global moderator who cares a lot to response user in the concerned threads.
2654  Economy / Reputation / Re: I appeal the deletion of this message on: July 24, 2022, 12:25:10 PM
Message back or not, no problem, let the mods do what they want, I am just trying to understand why my message got deleted.
Someone found it off-topic. They reported it and mod agreed with the report. There are no other case involved.

You need to move on from whatever happened between FortuneJack and you. Constantly attacking FJ is not helping you. One of the reason I also see among others is this was an off-topic response, I do not see it has anything to do with the point you are making.

I am wondering the topic should me on the meta board.
2655  Other / Meta / Re: Ban Appeal For naim027. on: July 24, 2022, 11:30:01 AM
Now, that in itself is not bad thing because c.$400 a month is a lot of money in his country especially to make and that just from one account here. He put a lot of effort in building up his naim027 account for that specific purpose and now it is banned therefore it will hurt financially and in one sense it is understandable he would try every way possible to try to have it rescinded including by sending PMs in the hope of having some support in order to pressure moderators.
What is your point? If today for some reason your account is banned then you are saying you will not pressure moderators. I highly doubt. You seems to enjoy hurting others with unnecessary arguments. If signature campaign was not exists then I highly doubt you would contribute to the forum at all. I saw many users who do not wear signature at the beginning, they think it helps them to build up a quick reputation. I read a few response in scam accusations against dulebit (topic a, topic b). A JollyGood is completely opposite in the threads. The aggression you show towards others was missing. In fact from the response anyone will easily mistakenly think that you are hired by them to advocate for Duelbits. Why did I miss the suspicious character of JollyGood but see a completely new JollyGood who single handily taken the lead to clear their employers name?

In brief, I support naim027 here, like LoyceV and The Pharmacist.
I would also like to see naim027 to get his account unlocked. If he was a completely shitposter then I would not show him any mercy.

Don't forget that banning for plagiarism is very rare on the internet. Some of the biggest websites on the planet wouldn't even exist without plagiarism (and massive privacy violations).
The amount of pressure a low rank and newbie account takes in the forum, someday we will find us isolated from the internet.
2656  Other / Meta / Re: Ignore account PM on: July 24, 2022, 10:41:56 AM
Well, if you still haven't got your answer then I can help you with that like adding you on my ignore list and then send me a pm and see if I can still receive your pm. I haven't thought about this tone too if you can still send pms on forum users who are on your ignore place as I also wanted to know
Sure we can. Let me know when you add me to the list and I will send a test PM.

There is an option to ignore PMs (separate from forum post "Ignore" feature) but AFAIK the sender would not be able to send the message to someone who is ignoring them,
I know it exists but that for newbie only. It's also about receiving PM. I was the sender in the case.
For email notification, I think forum should have a new option, Don't receive email notification when users in your ignore list reply in your topic. Now notifications are for all users.
This forum software is too old. Personally I do not mind the setting it has. Hopefully in the new software (if we ever have it) we will have better experience. In this topic I am asking for information not solution.
2657  Other / Meta / Ignore account PM on: July 23, 2022, 07:32:45 PM
I am thinking if a user put me into his ignore list but I send him a PM does he get it? It is not sure if this is the case with me but either the user did not receive my PM or he is not responding to my request. I need to be sure that the first one is not the reason.

I admit sometimes I am stupid to understand the forum features.
2658  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Digital signatures and Certificate made Bitcointalk secured... on: July 23, 2022, 06:32:12 PM
A certificate is not an only sector that will make a website is good or bad. On tip of iceberg, looking at SSL and TLS sites, SSL site brings a safer feeling and better security. Under the iceberg, more things will make a site is good or bad or vulnerable to attacks. The certificate is not all.
These days any site can have SSL. SSL ensures encrypted data from the hosting server to client browser. A site can have SSL but still it can be used for illegal activities like having a phishing site.

The only secure practice in my opinion is to know the domain name. Memorize it or save it on your browser. You can save it in a file too. Google is always unsafe. Many people go to google and search for the domain name. Scammers rank up their domain for the domain name people search and users reach to the scammers site. This is how regular hacks happens.
2659  Other / Meta / Re: Ban Appeal For naim027. on: July 23, 2022, 06:21:56 PM
Funny how a supposedly banned user is still gaming the system:
Interesting, a ban user can not post but can chance their trust setting. What else they can change?

When I lost my account then account recovery team helped me to restore the account. It does not seem anyone from the admin including the mods have seen the topic. May be naim027 can reach out to the account recovery team.

Not 2 BTC, sir. Just two transactions using BTC (both for $40).
From your last post I thought you said 2 BTC 🤣

Anyway, according to OP he paid you $70. It's obvious that you took the account back. In the mean time OP made two transactions using the account. It is complected now to find who is the bad guy.

The account is in your possession and only solution I see is, you need to refund him or give the account.

Also, the $70 you sent me was noted by exchange as "high AML risk" and was blocked. Just stop writing in this thread because even legendary forum members are tired of you
Words are not acceptable unless you give a form of proof. I do not think anyone is tired yet. 😉
