He has admitted to selling hacked BTCT accounts, is that bannable ?
It's not bannable but account sales are high discouraged by the community. People who involve themselves in trading accounts cannot be trusted therefore DT members leave a negative trust ratings on them.

Right now SoggyLettuce has some negative trust plus an active red flag. He won't be able to fool and scam sensible people in the forum again.

He's back trying complete with fake trust.  https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5263461.0

Last month I has my 78th birthday, is there anyone here who is older than me. I can still remember snatches from the air raids in the second world war, and it is interesting how some things make such an impression on children's minds.

Obviously I have a lot of friends who are over sixty, and not many seem to be able to understand the concept of virtual assets, even when I cite the examples of stories, and fiat currencies.

You got me by 5.  Cheesy  I used to moderate a forum on Compuserve off my TRS-80 with 4K ram and 1 floppy drive on a Hayes 300 baud Smartmodem.

I'm a copper member and if someone buy and he is a newbie so it's my mistake ? make sense ? You are jealous you're proving it
thanks i don't have time to waste by talking to my haters Smiley

"COPPER MEMBER"  LMAO. BFD. For $25 anyone can be a "copper member."  You're still just a newbie with 2 5 different accounts creating fake vouches and fake posts for both all your accounts.


285  Economy / Digital goods / Re: Google Ads 2020 Upgrade Method. Create Unlimited $350 Threshold Account. on: July 13, 2020, 03:59:53 AM
Just curious.  Why not use just 1 account?  Danny Lance and arikochipin are very obviously the same person and easy to prove.  It's not against the rules to use 2 accounts unless they are fake vouching or bumping threads for each other, but aside from all the sock puppet accounts and fake vouches what are you hiding?

Ahhhhh, your other account, Danny Lance, is bumping your thread.

What are you talking ? From the very beginning you're jealous of me Smiley

now i owned reputation and you came back again Smiley

thanks

Your reputation is as fake as all the 1,2,3 post newbie posters in your threads and your other account Danny Lance.  I'm not jealous of a fake & phony Newbie poster.

Make sure you wear a full face mask when you walk into Starbucks so they can't see your face on their security cameras when you use this guy's hacked/cracked/stolen codes.  Wink
LOL, Also make sure you wear gloves in the store or burn off your finger tips to avoid prints.

Self-moderated (and previously locked) threads lead to scams.  It's good you unlocked it.  Where did I say you scammed me or anyone?  

Mr Fakir (great name), please fully read and try to comprehend what I said:

Never purchase from NEWBIE sellers (fake or otherwise) using locked or self-moderated threads or "auto-buy" like Satoshidisk or Rocketr as you have no protection against scams. If you are dumb enough to purchase use a BITCOINTALK ESCROW so you have some protection. If the seller refuses escrow stay away. Trusted Escrow listing here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=276897.0

Thread archived for when you delete my reply:  https://archive.vn/OtjG5

If you keep thread unlocked and NOT self-moderated the comment you are referring to will be removed.  Newbies with locked and/or self-moderated threads more times then not are scammers.
No more free bumps though.

P.S.  It is not physically possible for me to be a "mother fucker" in the literal sense of the term. Cheesy



Your profile is full of red negative trust. Grin
Yes, I earned it all.  

I returned the minus trust you gave me.
Yes, thank you!  My mother thanks you too!

It suits you very well in red color.
Yes, I've been told I look sexy in red!
 
many people curse you.
Yes they do, and I'm proud of every last one.

Don't worry, your end is bad.
Actually some people really like it. I run a lot.  Makes muscles.

How come no one uses they type 2 or type 3 report so it shows to everyone on the thread itself  instead of just newbies ?  The little red -x is not very obvious as to what it means to many.
Piled on to the current tag.

LMAO.  All the scammers and fake protonmail accounts are fighting with each other.  This is great!

The fact you may actually be downloading something doesn't prove the fact that if some dummy sends you $300 payment they will actually get anything for their payment.  That scam has played out over and over here especially by FAKE newbies with multiple accounts selling just what you are. You aren't the first and by the looks of this forum aren't the last and likely are the same as half of them. You should try creating another real website, maybe call it CDMONTHEWIDEVINE or GRABMYNETFLIX . Now that the 3 previous ones seem to be gone the fake sellers are back LOL  If you don't like BCT simply stay away.

No more free bumps.  
292  Other / Meta / Re: Suggestion: Make it just a little more difficult to create a new account. on: June 24, 2020, 04:46:10 PM
Well, it wouldn't affect EVERYONE just those creating a lot of accounts at once. For the "real" new user it would take an extra 30 seconds to go to their email and click on a link. 99.9% of all websites do it so it probably isn't too much inconvenience for those people since they would only do it once.
You will have the arbitrary number of "lots of accounts being made" in your implementation. The use of mass email creation has been around for years and that will not change any time soon: you essentially make it slightly trickier for account spammers.

What does it prove? What is the intent of the email verification, and how does it resolve the problem? Or does it just merely shift the issue to a different problem?

Well, it's not meant to "prove" anything other than to make it just a small bit more difficult to create multiple accounts.  I just don't see the big deal for asking someone to verify an email they post as it just makes it a bit more inconvenient for those trying to create a lot of accounts in minutes maybe think twice. As I said before virtually every forum does it. The legit forum user will only be inconvenienced ONCE. It's not the ability to CREATE mass emails it's making it harder for that person to have to go find that mass created email he used to create the account, click on it and be verified.

WHY then even the need to enter an email as anyone can enter a random bunch of letters with dot something after it and still have forum access?  Email entry should then be totally eliminated under the "no need to confirm it exists" method of operation.


I wouldn't mind if there were some minor restrictions put in place for Newbies such as being required to buy a Copper Membership or having to gain 1 merit in order to create topics in the following sections: Goods, Services, Currency exchange, Gambling, Lending, Securities, Auctions, Service Announcements, and in all child-boards of these sections, Gambling discussion excepted.


I'll 2nd that!  Or +1 that!
293  Other / Meta / Re: Suggestion: Make it just a little more difficult to create a new account. on: June 23, 2020, 09:23:21 PM
The captcha will probably prevent this many accounts from being created that quickly, especially if you include the time required to login for the first tine.

A solution to many junk/spam accounts might be to require a captcha for some of the first x posts at random unless the account is whitelisted.

I am also not sure what type of accounts you are concerned about. If someone is creating boatloads of accounts to farm/spam low quality posts with, they would still need to wait 6 minutes between posts initially.

I created 2 accounts in less than 20 seconds and was never asked for a captcha.  I was asked AFTER they were created when I logged back in from another device

Making new account harder to create will only scare genuine new people, and it will not stop scammers and spammers.
Even now lot of people report that they can't create account until they pay evil fee, as they probable use shared IP address.
But adding some sign up quiz random questions can maybe slow spammers down

THAT would be just as good a feature.

Any solution which impacts everyone in order to stop a few people probably needs some more work. Need to stop trying to implement regulations and rules, assuming that the target cannot adapt to them. It's not something that only happens once and is then something mass account creators can't learn to circumvent.

Surface-level patches don't fix the root problem.

For the "real" new user it would take an extra 30 seconds to go to their email and click on a link. 99.9% of all websites do it so it probably isn't too much inconvenience for those people since they would only do it once. Of course it could be circumvented but that would take even more work. I'm pretty sure software like this would have a simple switch to turn the feature off or on already built in so it would require zero effort to enable it if it was wanted..

294  Other / Meta / Re: Suggestion: Make it just a little more difficult to create a new account. on: June 23, 2020, 11:44:34 AM
If performing the simple task of verifying your registration email is to difficult for someone they are going to have a real hard time getting involved in crypto or anything in life for that matter. Sandy's point is valid, considering the only people this would really affect are people creating multiple low level accounts for spamming, or posting malware links.

But would e-mail verification really stop them? Even if the forum started requiring a unique e-mail address for each account - creating an e-mail address requires less effort than passing the captcha. Just add "+" to gmail.

Probably not worth it considering potential downsides. For example legitimate users getting their verification e-mails lost in spam filters. Or subverting the confirmations to email-bomb someone.
 Definitely would not STOP them but would slow them down. Even easy to generate random emails like protonmail would at least make them have to go through a few "inconvenient" time wasting steps to verify.  If 100% anonymity is what the goal is why even bother requiring registration of a username?  Just come on in, make a post and add a name as you go. Virtually 99% of websites require some sort of confirmation on signup even the ones whose sole purpose is nefarious.  Sure, it's easy to fake it but it makes one more inconvenient step.

One can create 30 accounts here in probably 5 minutes or less.  There isn't even an email confirmation needed to create an account so one can just put in a random anything.  At least confirm someone's registration email actually exists. I think that will help avoid a lot of junk users.  Def not foolproof but way better than not even confirming an email one uses even if it's a "throwaway" email.

whythey are premium?  how are better then others sell for for 2$ ?
LOL, because he says so and they aren't.



Our supplier follows all official rules and regulations (also in the EU), and only get's the accounts from authorized wholesalers. Plus we have lifetime guarantee for almost all of our products!
Now THAT'S funny and original!  "Official rules" "authorized wholesalers" for accounts that are simply hacked like every other one sold around here.  Where can someone find these "official rules." ?  

Anyway, this should be in the Accounts/Invites section.  You can move it using the link on the bottom of the page that is labeled "move topic."
